OS-Helix: 统一原生计算机使用智能体中的 GUI 交互与代码执行

arXiv:2610.22234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real desktop automation is neither purely visual nor purely programmatic. Agents must understand user-facing interfaces while efficiently manipulating files, scripts, and system state. However, native GUI/code coordination cannot be obtained by prompt-level tool composition. In our preliminary experiments, naively adding a code tool degrades a GUI agent, revealing that GUI/code routing must be internalized through training on high-quality hybrid data. We present OS-Helix, an end-to-end trained multimodal computer-using agent that unifies GUI actions and code execution in one action space. To construct the required supervision, we introduce application-artifact composition, pairing desktop applications with authentic file artifacts to instantiate executable Ubuntu states, and a decoupled instruction/evaluator generation pipeline that produces environment-grounded tasks whose final states can be verified regardless of the solution modality. We cold-start the policy with SFT on filtered hybrid data and further improve it through online RL in live desktop environments. For RL, we propose Step-balanced GSPO, which aggregates importance weight by action step rather than raw assistant tokens to prevent long code actions from dominating heterogeneous-action optimization. On OSWorld-Verified, OS-Helix-27B and OS-Helix-35B-A3B achieve relative improvements of 35.0% and 33.7% over their matched Qwen3.5 hybrid baselines, while OS-Helix-27B-RL further improves by 42.9% to reach 66.44% success. Ablations provide evidence consistent with contributions from learned GUI/code coordination, scalable verifiable supervision, and action step balanced optimization, while demonstrating cross-platform transfer on WindowsAgentArena.
