## What it is
OSWorld is a benchmark and scalable real computer environment for evaluating multimodal agents on open-ended computer tasks across operating systems, with 369 real-world tasks and reproducible setup/evaluation scripts. It supports task setup, execution-based evaluation, and interactive learning in VMs hosted via VMware, VirtualBox, Docker, or cloud providers.

## Use cases
- benchmark multimodal llm agents on real computer tasks
- evaluate gui agents in a real desktop environment
- compare computer-use agent performance across models
- set up an interactive environment for agent reinforcement learning
- test agents on tasks involving arbitrary desktop applications
- run reproducible evaluations of os automation agents

## When to choose
- you need a standardized, reproducible benchmark for computer-use or GUI agents
- you want execution-based evaluation rather than static datasets
- you need a real OS environment spanning multiple applications for agent testing

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight text-only agent benchmark without OS interaction
- you cannot provision virtual machines or cloud instances for evaluation
- you need a production agent framework rather than an evaluation benchmark

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: benchmarking, agent-framework, testing
- domain: artificial-intelligence, large-language-models, developer-tools
- platform: python, cloud
- tags: multimodal-agents, computer-use, gui-agents, evaluation-benchmark, virtual-machines, reinforcement-learning-environment, ai-agents, linux, docker
