AgentSearchBench: A Benchmark for AI Agent Search in the Wild
The rapid growth of AI agent ecosystems is transforming how complex tasks are delegated and executed, creating a new challenge of identifying suitable agents for a given task. Unlike traditional tools, agent capabilities are often compositional and execution-dependent, making them difficult to assess from textual descriptions alone. However, existing research and benchmarks typically assume well-specified functionalities, controlled candidate pools, or only executable task queries, leaving realistic agent search scenarios insufficiently studied. We introduce AgentSearchBench, a large-scale benchmark for agent search in the wild, built from nearly 10,000 real-world agents across multiple providers. The benchmark formalizes agent search as retrieval and reranking problems under both executable task queries and high-level task descriptions, and evaluates relevance using execution-grounded performance signals. Experiments reveal a consistent gap between semantic similarity and actual agent performance, exposing the limitations of description-based retrieval and reranking methods. We further show that lightweight behavioral signals, including execution-aware probing, can substantially improve ranking quality, highlighting the importance of incorporating execution signals into agent discovery. Our code is available at https://github.com/Bingo-W/AgentSearchBench.
InnoEval: On Research Idea Evaluation as a Knowledge-Grounded, Multi-Perspective Reasoning Problem
The rapid evolution of Large Language Models has catalyzed a surge in scientific idea production, yet this leap has not been accompanied by a matching advance in idea evaluation. The fundamental nature of scientific evaluation needs knowledgeable grounding, collective deliberation, and multi-criteria decision-making. However, existing idea evaluation methods often suffer from narrow knowledge horizons, flattened evaluation dimensions, and the inherent bias in LLM-as-a-Judge. To address these, we regard idea evaluation as a knowledge-grounded, multi-perspective reasoning problem and introduce InnoEval, a deep innovation evaluation framework designed to emulate human-level idea assessment. We apply a heterogeneous deep knowledge search engine that retrieves and grounds dynamic evidence from diverse online sources. We further achieve review consensus with an innovation review board containing reviewers with distinct academic backgrounds, enabling a multi-dimensional decoupled evaluation across multiple metrics. We construct comprehensive datasets derived from authoritative peer-reviewed submissions to benchmark InnoEval. Experiments demonstrate that InnoEval can consistently outperform baselines in point-wise, pair-wise, and group-wise evaluation tasks, exhibiting judgment patterns and consensus highly aligned with human experts.
