Harbor Adapters and Harbor-Index: Infrastructure and a Curated Meta-Dataset for Large-Scale Agentic Evaluation

Evaluating agents on the growing number of agentic benchmarks is challenging because they often require complex environments and agent integrations. We introduce Harbor Adapters, a unified evaluation infrastructure for agentic benchmarks. Our work makes three contributions. First, we develop benchmark adapters that port more than 80 benchmarks to evaluate arbitrary agents, and validate them through rigorous code review and parity experiments. Second, we conduct a large-scale evaluation of 8 models spanning capability tiers across 54 benchmarks; every model is run with Terminus-2 and with one of 3 native harnesses. This enables a broader analysis of agent capabilities and failure modes than was previously possible. Third, we introduce Harbor-Index, a curated set of 82 difficult, diverse, and high-quality tasks spanning 29 benchmarks, refined from the adapted suite through difficulty filtering, AI and human audit, and an audit-and-fix loop. Harbor-Index preserves the challenge and breadth of large-scale agentic evaluations while being affordable to run; no evaluated model-harness configuration exceeds 30% pass rate, and the strongest (GPT-5.5 with Codex) reaches 28.0%. We release the adapters, evaluation results, in-depth analysis, and Harbor-Index as open-source artifacts to support more reliable and comprehensive evaluation of language-model agents.

OpenThoughts-Agent: Data Recipes for Agentic Models

Agentic language models dramatically expand the applications of AI yet little is publicly known about how to curate training data for broadly capable agents. Existing open efforts such as SWE-Smith, SERA, and Nemotron-Terminal typically target a single benchmark, leaving open the question of how to train models that generalize across diverse agentic tasks. The OpenThoughts-Agent (OT-Agent) project addresses this gap with a fully open data curation pipeline for training agentic models. We conduct more than 100 controlled ablation experiments to systematically investigate each stage of the pipeline, yielding insights on the importance of task sources and diversity. We then assemble a training set of 100K examples from our pipeline and fine-tune Qwen3-32B on this dataset, which yields an average accuracy of 44.8% across seven agentic benchmarks and a 3.9 percentage point improvement over the strongest existing open data agentic model (Nemotron-Terminal-32B, 40.9%). Moreover, our training data exhibits strong scaling properties, outperforming alternative open datasets at every training set size in compute-controlled comparisons. We publicly release our training sets, data pipeline, experimental data, and models at openthoughts.ai to support future open research on agentic model training.

Customer-Agent: Overcoming Context Limitations in Ultra-Long Shopping Trajectories via Tool-Augmented Agents and RLVR

Understanding customer shopping trajectories is essential for enabling personalized shopping experiences. However, shopping records (i.e., customer's search, clicks, purchases, etc.) often span long time horizons over multiple years, resulting in extremely long trajectories that pose significant challenges for existing large language models (LLMs). Despite the importance of this problem, existing benchmarks are limited to short customer trajectories, while real-world trajectories from large e-commerce platforms are rarely accessible due to data privacy constraints. To address this gap, we introduce ShopTrajQA, a long-context evaluation benchmark constructed from real-world product information and simulated shopping trajectories. The dataset includes variants of up to 32k and 64k tokens, enabling systematic evaluation of model robustness under varying context lengths. Through comprehensive benchmarking of frontier LLMs, we identify critical performance gaps in reasoning over long shopping trajectory data. To address these challenges, we propose a Customer Agent Framework for ultra-long context management. Leveraging a Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) agentic training paradigm, our approach stores trajectories as external local files and trains the agent to autonomously retrieve and parse them through code-interpreter interactions (e.g., SQL queries), effectively bypassing the fixed in-context window constraints of LLMs. Experimental results demonstrate that our framework achieves strong performance for ShopTrajQA and shows generalization to other complex reasoning tasks.

Terminal-Bench: Benchmarking Agents on Hard, Realistic Tasks in Command Line Interfaces

AI agents may soon become capable of autonomously completing valuable, long-horizon tasks in diverse domains. Current benchmarks either do not measure real-world tasks, or are not sufficiently difficult to meaningfully measure frontier models. To this end, we present Terminal-Bench 2.0: a carefully curated hard benchmark composed of 89 tasks in computer terminal environments inspired by problems from real workflows. Each task features a unique environment, human-written solution, and comprehensive tests for verification. We show that frontier models and agents score less than 65\% on the benchmark and conduct an error analysis to identify areas for model and agent improvement. We publish the dataset and evaluation harness to assist developers and researchers in future work at https://www.tbench.ai/ .
