This work introduces VibeLifeBench, a benchmark of 200 long-horizon tasks across ten everyday-life domains, and evaluates seven frontier models, all of which score low, which shows how far current agents are from assisting with real life.
Abstract
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed as personal assistants. Existing evaluations, however, mostly use short, self-contained requests in static environments. Everyday life assistance is different. A task runs for weeks rather than minutes. The world keeps changing while the agent is not being prompted. Many constraints are never stated outright. An agent that merely answers the request in front of it will fail at such a task. What is needed instead is an agent that stays proactive and consistent. It decides on its own when to act, when to ask, and when to stay silent. It notices changes that nobody announced. It keeps one plan coherent from the first day to the last. No current benchmark measures this. We introduce VibeLifeBench, a benchmark of 200 long-horizon tasks across ten everyday-life domains. Each task is a scripted multi-week timeline in a simulated world of 22 mock services. The world advances on its own clock, and many of its changes are silent, so only an agent that re-inspects the world discovers them. Every task is graded by fine-grained, weighted checks that read only what the agent actually left behind, covering the end state, the timeliness of its actions, and whether it upheld the implicit constraints. We evaluate seven frontier models. All of them score low, which shows how far current agents are from assisting with real life. We will open-source all tasks, environments, and the evaluation framework.
The same harness runs across five backend LLMs from three model families, indicating the harness generalizes across backends without tuning, even as different models induce distinct execution styles under the same workflow.

This work presents a self-evolving agent framework that reduces the consistency gap by identifying unstable, low-consistency steps in agent trajectories and converting them into episodic memory the agent can draw on in future runs.

LoopHarness is presented, which restores a persistent, non-decaying safety state at the loop level at the loop level, and gives a complete evaluation protocol on native Agent-SafetyBench tasks with paired clean and attacked episodes, an outer-state attack suite whose decisive evidence exists only across iterations, per...
This work defines real-time as five measurable properties, each with an equation and a worked example: continuous task arrival, live concurrent execution, online rating updates, freshness with contamination resistance, and bounded feedback latency from a failed run to a reusable training environment.
This work proposes an always-on attention-coordination layer that mediates this interface and allocates human attention across one or more working agents, and introduces JarvisBench to evaluate both directions of this coordination.
It is argued that governing such agents is a runtime problem -- not a model-alignment problem and not a build-time problem -- and five primitives are derived from the questions that must be answered before an action takes effect and after it has: discovery, identity, governance, attestation, and supply chain.
