Abstract

Reusable Web-agent verification requires a rule to follow changing requirements and support subsequent execution. We introduce AgentProofBench, which connects paired tests of a frozen acceptance rule to execution from identical saved openings. The resource spans 97 tasks, 79 families, and four Web services. Experiments with DeepSeek Flash/Pro establish two linked measurements. Across 48 families, complete-panel and decision-replay tests retain 82/96 Flash and 79/96 Pro source programs; paired reuse-rebuild BA intervals are [-5.47, 1.57] and [-10.16, 0.00] percentage points. Across 22 execution families, deployment-state panel correctness separates program assignments whose two saved openings are both delivered correctly: 32/33 assignments with error-free panels, versus 1/11 with panel errors. All reference-defined program-gate regressions and withheld deliveries occur in the latter group. Neutral continuation attains the highest correct delivery under the tested generic feedback, providing a concrete baseline for measuring the value added by a gate. Released instructions, states, programs, reference rules, and trajectories connect each test failure to its execution consequences. AgentProofBench makes reusable verification assessable at both the requirement and policy levels.

AgentTrustCI: Build-Time Policy, Grounding, and Trajectory Tests for Java LLM Agents

Infrastructure security does not establish whether an LLM agent selected an allowed tool, grounded its answer in tool output, or followed a required workflow. AgentTrustCI is a Java/JUnit 5 framework that expresses these application-layer expectations as policy, grounding, and trajectory checks over recorded traces. A...

VeriEvolve: Evaluator-First Evolution for Tool-Using Agents

A central obstacle to self-improving agents is the absence of a reliable fitness signal for realistic stateful tasks. We introduce \textsc{VeriEvolve}, an evaluator-first evolution framework that constructs this missing evaluation layer before optimizing the agent. From task instruction, VeriEvolve synthesizes instruct...

ToolContractGate: Versioned Trusted Contracts for Drift-Safe Agent Tool Invocation

Agent tool approval and input validation do not, by themselves, bind a request to an approved source artifact. ToolContractGate provides a deterministic runtime contract evaluator for OpenAPI-derived agent tools. Each versioned ToolContract combines a stored OpenAPI fingerprint with access, schema, and behavioral decla...

Rules to Tools: Executable Checks for LLM Agents in Scientific Computing

Scientific coding agents receive equations, boundary conditions, and output requirements in writing, then must assess the programs they revise. Rules to Tools (R2T) supplies prepared executable checks of public scientific requirements. Matched SciCode repair groups share written checks, starting programs, model, and bu...

Rethinking Verification in Agent Harnesses

Agent harnesses enable large language models to act through tools, observe the results, and iteratively work toward a task goal. Verification checks and revises agents'work to improve output quality. Yet there is limited guidance on how harnesses should organize this effort. We study verification as an axis of test-tim...
