DevicesWorld: Benchmarking Cross-Device Agents in Heterogeneous Environments

LLM-based agents have rapidly improved at operating individual digital environments such as mobile applications, desktop systems, and smart homes. However, real-world user goals often span multiple devices: information may come from a phone, be processed on a desktop, and the result may need to appear on another device. Most existing benchmarks center on a single dominant execution environment, making it difficult to evaluate whether agents can acquire and integrate information across heterogeneous devices and complete end-to-end tasks with cross-device dependencies. We introduce DevicesWorld, a large-scale executable benchmark for cross-device collaborative operation. DevicesWorld contains 6,140 tasks and integrates three classes of device environments -- mobile, desktop, and IoT -- into a unified cross-device interaction and evaluation framework. Each task defines a natural-language user goal, participating devices and initial states, executable actions, rule-based verifiers, and a cleanup procedure. A multi-stage construction and quality-control pipeline keeps tasks close to realistic user needs while allowing final outcomes to be automatically verified from device states and generated files. We evaluate five frontier LLM-agent systems on a fixed evaluation set. All methods achieve low success rates, with the best reaching only 12.5%. Among failed runs, about 28.7% satisfy at least one scoring condition yet still fail the full task. Trajectories show that agents become stuck acquiring information or manipulating interfaces, confuse source and output devices, or terminate before all conditions are jointly satisfied. DevicesWorld turns cross-device collaborative operation into an executable, reproducible, and diagnostically useful evaluation problem for research on reliable cross-device agents.
