UniClawBench: A Universal Benchmark for Proactive Agents on Real-World Tasks

The rapid development of large language models and multimodal large language models has accelerated the emergence of proactive agents capable of operating everyday tools and assisting users in real-world environments. However, existing benchmarks struggle to evaluate such agents effectively, as they often rely on sandboxed environments and single-turn evaluation paradigms. Moreover, their scenario-based task taxonomies mix multiple model capabilities within the same task category, making it difficult to identify the root causes of agent failures. To address these limitations, we introduce UniClawBench, the first capability-driven benchmark designed to evaluate proactive agents in dynamic, real-world settings. UniClawBench is built around five foundational model capabilities: Skill Usage, Exploration, Long-Context Reasoning, Multimodal Understanding, and Cross-Platform Coordination. Based on these capabilities, we design 400 bilingual real-world tasks. Unlike previous benchmarks that rely on static, pre-recorded answers, our benchmark evaluates agents in live Docker containers using fine-grained, step-by-step completion checkpoints. Furthermore, we design a closed-loop evaluation strategy comprising an executor agent, a hidden supervisor agent, and a user agent to simulate realistic multi-turn human feedback without leaking grading criteria. To disentangle base model capabilities from framework-level design choices, we evaluate state-of-the-art models under multiple agent frameworks. Through comprehensive comparisons across both models and frameworks, we show how base model capabilities and agent framework designs jointly shape performance in real-world environments. To facilitate future research, we make our benchmark and code publicly available at https://github.com/HKU-MMLab/UniClawBench.

Twins: Learn to Predict Unified Representations with Focal Loss

Unified multimodal models seek a shared visual token space that supports both multimodal understanding and image generation. Discrete methods unify the interface via a shared codebook, whereas continuous pipelines often rely on two disparate representations -- semantic features (e.g., ViT) for understanding and low-level latents (e.g., VAE) for synthesis -- resulting in mismatched latent spaces. We propose Twins, a unified continuous token space formed by channel-wise concatenating ViT and VAE features on the same token grid, so the sequence length is unchanged and attention cost does not increase. However, jointly modeling Twins in a Diffusion Transformer exposes a severe optimization imbalance: the model fits the ViT component well but struggles to match the VAE latent distribution. We trace this imbalance to three sources of heterogeneity: frequency bias, intrinsic dimensionality, and condition-aligned vs condition-independent uncertainty. To address it, we adapt a focal regression objective for flow matching that upweights large-error VAE dimensions, better balancing optimization across the ViT and VAE components. On ImageNet, this yields up to 10.57 gFID gain over naive MSE loss without classifier-free guidance. Twins also performs competitively on multimodal understanding benchmarks and improves reconstruction fidelity, narrowing the gap between understanding- and generation-oriented representations.
