AgentSearchBench: A Benchmark for AI Agent Search in the Wild

- 从近万款真实智能体中构建搜索基准,涵盖多平台复杂能力。
- 发现语义相似度与实际执行表现存在显著差距,传统方法失效。
- 轻量级行为信号可大幅提升排序精度,适合智能体系统研发者。
AI智能体生态的快速发展正在改变复杂任务的委托与执行方式,但如何为特定任务找到合适智能体成为新挑战。与传统工具不同,智能体能力具有组合性且依赖执行过程,仅靠文本描述难以评估。现有研究和基准多假设功能明确、候选池受控或仅处理可执行任务查询,对真实场景覆盖不足。本文提出AgentSearchBench,一个基于近10,000个真实世界智能体的大规模基准,涵盖多个提供方。该基准将智能体搜索形式化为在可执行任务查询与高层任务描述下的检索与重排序问题,并使用执行结果作为相关性评估信号。实验表明,语义相似度与实际性能间存在持续差距,暴露了基于描述的检索与重排序方法的局限性。进一步验证轻量级行为信号(如执行感知探测)可显著提升排序质量,强调在智能体发现中融入执行信号的重要性。代码已开源:https://github.com/Bingo-W/AgentSearchBench。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The rapid growth of AI agent ecosystems is transforming how complex tasks are delegated and executed, creating a new challenge of identifying suitable agents for a given task. Unlike traditional tools, agent capabilities are often compositional and execution-dependent, making them difficult to assess from textual descriptions alone. However, existing research and benchmarks typically assume well-specified functionalities, controlled candidate pools, or only executable task queries, leaving realistic agent search scenarios insufficiently studied. We introduce AgentSearchBench, a large-scale benchmark for agent search in the wild, built from nearly 10,000 real-world agents across multiple providers. The benchmark formalizes agent search as retrieval and reranking problems under both executable task queries and high-level task descriptions, and evaluates relevance using execution-grounded performance signals. Experiments reveal a consistent gap between semantic similarity and actual agent performance, exposing the limitations of description-based retrieval and reranking methods. We further show that lightweight behavioral signals, including execution-aware probing, can substantially improve ranking quality, highlighting the importance of incorporating execution signals into agent discovery.
