构建首个支持任意起始状态的桌面GUI自动化评测基准
WorldGUI: An Interactive Benchmark for Desktop GUI Automation from Any Starting Point
- 设计十种应用的多样化初始状态,模拟真实使用场景
- 现有顶级代理在非默认状态下性能下降超50%
- 提出通用框架,通过三阶段反思提升动态环境适应力
当前GUI智能体在视觉定位上进展显著,但在非标准起始状态下的稳健规划仍具挑战。实际应用中,用户常在流程中途请求帮助,此时软件可能已部分配置、操作顺序错乱或界面偏离默认状态。此类任务状态多样性普遍存在,但现有基准未能充分评估。为此,我们提出WorldGUI,涵盖十款主流桌面与网页应用,任务在系统构建的多种初始状态下展开,真实还原人机交互情境,可诊断智能体恢复能力、计划调整与非默认上下文处理能力。我们进一步提出WorldGUI-Agent,一种简单且模型无关的框架,围绕三个批判阶段组织规划与执行,提升动态环境下的可靠性。实验表明,最先进GUI代理在非默认条件下性能显著下降,暴露出规划脆弱性。本基准与框架为开发更鲁棒的GUI智能体奠定基础。代码与数据开源于https://github.com/showlab/WorldGUI。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Recent progress in GUI agents has substantially improved visual grounding, yet robust planning remains challenging, particularly when the environment deviates from a canonical initial state. In real applications, users often invoke assistance mid-workflow, where software may be partially configured, steps may have been executed in different orders, or the interface may differ from its default setup. Such task-state variability is pervasive but insufficiently evaluated in existing GUI benchmarks. To address this gap, we introduce WorldGUI, a benchmark covering ten widely used desktop and web applications with tasks instantiated under diverse, systematically constructed initial states. These variations capture realistic human-computer interaction settings and enable diagnostic evaluation of an agent's ability to recover, adapt plans, and handle non-default contexts. We further present WorldGUI-Agent, a simple and model-agnostic framework that organizes planning and execution around three critique stages, improving reliability in dynamic environments. Experiments demonstrate that state-of-the-art GUI agents exhibit substantial performance degradation under non-default initial conditions, revealing limited robustness and fragile planning behaviors. Our benchmark and framework provide a foundation for developing more adaptable and reliable GUI agents. The code and data are available at https://github.com/showlab/WorldGUI.
