Abstract:Recent advances in agentic AI have enabled agents to complete complex tasks through tool use, reasoning, and multi-step planning. Yet existing benchmarks evaluate agents within a single session, ignoring past actions, stated preferences, and prior decisions that agents must integrate to fulfill personalized user goals. We introduce Momento, a benchmark for persistent agentic task completion in multi-session service environments, requiring agents to take consequential, tool-mediated actions while resolving temporal dependencies and evolving user goals across sessions. Experimental results reveal that current agents fail primarily through misestimation of user state, treating prior session history as a reliable proxy for current context rather than stale information requiring re-validation, highlighting a substantial gap between current agent capabilities and realistic long-horizon human-agent interaction.
Abstract:Code-switching is a pervasive phenomenon in multilingual communication, yet the robustness of large language models (LLMs) in mixed-language settings remains insufficiently understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive evaluation of LLM capabilities in understanding, reasoning over, and generating code-switched text. We introduce CodeMixQA a novel benchmark with high-quality human annotations, comprising 16 diverse parallel code-switched language-pair variants that span multiple geographic regions and code-switching patterns, and include both original scripts and their transliterated forms. Using this benchmark, we analyze the reasoning behavior of LLMs on code-switched question-answering tasks, shedding light on how models process and reason over mixed-language inputs. We further conduct a systematic evaluation of LLM-generated synthetic code-switched text, focusing on both naturalness and semantic fidelity, and uncover key limitations in current generation capabilities. Our findings reveal persistent challenges in both reasoning and generation under code-switching conditions and provide actionable insights for building more robust multilingual LLMs. We release the dataset and code as open source.
