Research desktop agents and document editing in isolated environments with limited permissions and result verification.

WORTH MONITORING

The application executes the actions, not the checkpoint alone. The architecture’s 262,144 tokens do not establish quality at that length: the published active window is 32,768. The SFT-stage WebVoyager-Static result is not attributed to the final checkpoint.

05 / EVALUATIONS

How to read the results

“

Microsoft reports 66.0% on OSWorld-Verified: the average of two runs over 361 tasks excluding Google Drive, with 50 steps. It uses MAGEHybridAgent, 1920 × 1080 screenshots and a specific history. This is not a universal agent comparison or a test reproduced by Inferama.
