Qwen-UI-Agent Technical Report: Toward Next-Generation Real-World Centric Foundation GUI Agents
GUI agents have the potential to become a general purpose executor over existing digital devices. To advance them toward real-world use, we envision agents that operate reliably on real devices, execute workflows across platforms, combine GUI interaction with CLI execution, complete long-horizon tasks, proactively initiate useful services, and autonomously improve their capabilities with minimal human effort. Guided by this vision, we present Qwen-UI-Agent, a real-world centric foundation GUI agent spanning mobile, computer-use, web, and DeepSearch environments. Qwen-UI-Agent combines diverse sandbox environments with a large-scale real-device mobile runtime. Its unified action space interleaves GUI operations with CLI execution and generates batched actions in a single model turn. An AutoResearch-style data flywheel uses agents to construct tasks and environments, diagnose failures, and plan subsequent iterations. Online RL supports training on trajectories exceeding 100 turns, with over 10,000 concurrent environments accelerating rollout. A lightweight harness layer supports proactive service initiation and stateful workflows across mobile and computer. Across a broad suite of evaluations, Qwen-UI-Agent sets state-of-the-art performance on mobile-use benchmarks while delivering competitive performance on computer- and browser-use tasks against frontier models, including Opus 4.8, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and GPT-5.6 Sol. On mobile use, it achieves 82.1% on MobileWorld, 92.2% on MobileWorld-Real, and 97.5% on AndroidDaily. On computer use, it achieves 79.5% on OSWorld-Verified and a 40.0% partial-progress score on OSWorld-v2. On browser use and GUI grounding, it achieves 73.6% on WebArena and 81.5% on ScreenSpot-Pro, respectively.
Omni-Decision: A Progressive Evidence-State Agent System for Omni-Modal QA
Omni-modal evidence-seeking QA requires agents to answer questions whose evidence is sparsely distributed across videos, audio, images, web pages, and computation results. Existing agentic multimodal systems often leave evidence in scratchpads, tool trajectories, or free-form histories, making it difficult to track what has been grounded, what remains missing, and when the evidence is sufficient to answer. We propose Omni-Decision, a training-free evidence-state system that turns omni-modal QA into a query-scoped evidence-closure process. For each query, Omni-Decision maintains a structured evidence state containing confirmed evidence, unresolved conflicts, fact and computation dependencies, and open evidence needs. A shared state view conditions planning, evidence acquisition, validation, repair, and finalization. Heterogeneous observations from media, web, computation, and verification modules are normalized, judged, and committed through deterministic state updates. This design enables targeted evidence acquisition, preserves sparse cross-modal cues, and provides inspectable control over repair and stopping. Omni-Decision achieves 45.6% accuracy on OmniGAIA and 58.3% on WorldSense, improving over the baselines by +27.3 and +30.2 percentage points, respectively. No-state ablations and trajectory audits further support the role of explicit evidence-state control in multi-step omni-modal evidence seeking.
