Your Agent Said "Done". The Filesystem Disagrees.

Описание и применение

VASB проверяет, действительно ли агент выполнил заявленную задачу, сравнивая реальное состояние файловой системы с ожидаемым, выявляя ложные сообщения об успехе.

Задача

Agent systems often report success without verifying real-world effects, leading to false claims of task completion.

Результат

When an agent declares success but fails to produce the expected file, VASB flags the case as FAIL, highlighting false-success and missing artifacts.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Define a test case (e.g., create output/result.txt with exact content VASB_OK).
• 2. Run the agent via VASB using an adapter (honest or lying).
• 3. VASB records the agent’s declared status and evidence with authority="none".
• 4. Validators independently inspect the real final state, trace events, and side effects.
• 5. Each validator returns a result (PASS, FAIL, UNKNOWN).
• 6. VASB aggregates results across eleven dimensions and reports a comprehensive verdict.

Доказательства

"Task completed successfully." That's the most common lie in agent systems.

Источник

I built VASB (Verifiable Agent Systems Benchmark) to make that failure measurable.

Источник

Case DEV-0001 asks for one thing: create output/result.txt containing exactly VASB_OK (7 bytes, no trailing newline), and touch nothing else.

Источник

STATUS: PASS - correctness PASS STATE_VERIFIED: All 5 correctness check(s) satisfied by the real final state.

Источник

STATUS: FAIL correct=False reasons: FALSE_SUCCESS, MISSING_ARTIFACT

Источник

Adapters have no authority

Источник

Every validator runs on every case. Each one gates itself: if the case declares nothing for its dimension, it returns UNKNOWN / NO_EXPECTATIONS.
