RecreationWorld: Scalable and Verifiable Environments for Hybrid Computer-Use Agents
Summary
The paper presents RecreationWorld, a five‑platform framework that lets hybrid computer‑use agents learn by recreating the behavior of a running reference, and introduces RecreationBench, a 250‑task benchmark with programmatic and visual assertions. Experiments show GPT‑6 Astra reaches 58.1% overall but struggles with deeper programmatic tests, highlighting gaps in current agents.
- RecreationWorld provides unified GUI control and coding tools across Ubuntu, macOS, Windows, Android, and Web, enabling agents to discover and implement behavior without a fixed workflow.
- RecreationBench offers 250 diverse tasks with hidden behavioral tests that are validated on reference implementations and frozen for automatic scoring.
- Agents trained on generated trajectories improve on out‑of‑distribution coding and hybrid computer‑use benchmarks, but only pass all programmatic tests on 2.8% of tasks.
- Static UI structure is reproduced more reliably than dynamic interactions or computed outputs; generated applications tend to be smaller and more monolithic than the originals.
Researchers building hybrid computer‑use agents need realistic, multi‑platform environments and rigorous benchmarks to measure true recreation and verification capabilities.
