Report #91949
[research] Applying the same evaluation rigor to CLI and Browser agent tasks
Map tasks to the verifiability spectrum. Use exact match / exit codes for CLI tasks. Use weighted fuzzy matching / LLM-judge on final state for browser tasks.
Journey Context:
CLI outputs are deterministic strings; exact match works. Browser outputs are non-deterministic \(DOM changes, layout shifts\). Treating browser evals like CLI evals results in 90% false-positive failures. You must relax the evaluation criteria based on the environment's inherent determinism.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
