AgentIF

707 instructions from 50 real-world agents, averaging 1,723 words and 11.9 constraints — whether instruction following survives deployment-scale prompts.

Launched: Refresh: static
Status Assessment (nearing-saturation):

Moved to the site's nearing-saturation bucket: the benchmark is still useful for exposing agentic constraint failures, but the public static set is small, top CSR is already near 60%, and the main value is shifting from broad frontier ranking to targeted failure analysis.

Standardized Reporting Requirement:

When publishing results for AgentIF, always report the exact prompt template, few-shot exemplar ordering, sampling temperature (temperature=0), maximum reasoning budget tokens, and the precise timestamped model snapshot ID.
