xlang-ai/OSWorld

OSWorld is a benchmark for evaluating multimodal agents on open-ended tasks in real computer environments.

The project addresses the challenge of assessing how well AI agents can perform realistic, complex tasks that require interaction with actual operating systems and applications. Rather than testing agents in isolated simulations, OSWorld provides a framework for benchmarking multimodal agents—systems that process both visual and textual information—as they navigate real desktop environments. The benchmark includes diverse task scenarios that demand agents to understand graphical interfaces, execute commands, generate code, and coordinate multiple actions across different applications to achieve specified goals.

OSWorld suits researchers and developers building or evaluating autonomous agents intended for real-world deployment. It is particularly relevant for those working on large language models, vision-language models, and reinforcement learning approaches that aim to automate complex user workflows. The benchmark's focus on open-ended tasks in genuine computer environments makes it valuable for projects that go beyond narrow, single-application automation and require agents to handle the unpredictability and complexity of actual desktop systems.

The project shows active development with regular updates to its codebase and documentation. The repository maintains a clear structure with Python as the primary implementation language and provides comprehensive resources including a project homepage. The benchmark appears to be actively maintained with attention to both the core evaluation framework and supporting infrastructure for running and analyzing agent performance across the defined task suite.
