Hy-MultiTurn: A Six-Dimensional Benchmark for Deep Multi-Turn Dialogue Understanding
Long-running multi-turn interactions with chatbots and agents are now common, and a correct response often depends on remembering earlier details, tracking later revisions, identifying intended objects or referents, and withholding action when required conditions are unmet. Existing multi-turn benchmarks typically cover short exchanges and do not fully evaluate these capabilities in long multi-turn interactions, particularly in Chinese, while offering limited insight into how and why models fail. To address these limitations, we analyze real chatbot failures to identify six recurring mechanisms and use them to define six controlled evaluation modes in Hy-MultiTurn, a Chinese benchmark for deep multi-turn dialogue understanding. The six modes evaluate constraint memory, precise execution, constraint synthesis, object localization, action suppression, and reference resolution. Across the six modes, we construct 209 controlled tasks spanning 12-76 turns, with dialogue length, irrelevant-topic distraction, and colloquial phrasing adding further difficulty. Evaluation of 22 frontier model configurations shows that Hy-MultiTurn is broadly challenging, as even GPT-5.5, the strongest overall configuration, satisfies all requirements in only 41.1 percent of responses and no model performs best in all six modes.
E-Bench: Benchmarking Multi-Step Tool-Use Agents in Real-World Product Scenarios
Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as agents that interact with stateful environments over multiple steps: gathering hidden information, composing tool calls, and committing state changes. We refer to this capability as multi-step tool use. Existing benchmarks have advanced tool-use agent evaluation, but often focus on isolated API calls, short trajectories, or settings that are difficult to scale or control. We introduce E-Bench, a fully synthetic benchmark with 323 state-changing tasks across three product domains: Honor of Kings, QQ Music, and Tencent Meeting. E-Bench decouples environment synthesis from task synthesis: graph-guided database filling builds reusable, orphan-free product environments, while generator-solver asymmetry creates tasks with both an information gap and a tool gap, requiring agents to discover hidden data and compose multiple tool calls before changing state. Outcomes are graded deterministically by database-state diffs. Since both environments and tasks are synthetic, E-Bench is controllable at the environment level and scalable at the task level. Benchmarking 11 cutting-edge LLMs shows that multi-step tool use remains challenging: Pass^3 stays below 60% for the strongest models, and even with code execution in the E-Bench-Code extension, reliability (Pass^3) remains below 70%.
