This research introduces AgentActionBench, a novel benchmark designed to evaluate LLM agents' ability to reproduce scientific experiments across both machine learning and AI4Science domains. By capturing agent behaviors via an MCP-based recorder and validating rubric generation through strong statistical correlations with human annotations, the study highlights execution as the current primary bottleneck in automated reproducibility efforts. The work significantly advances the field by shifting focus from final repository checks to a granular, process-oriented assessment of agent reliability in scientific workflows.
Overview of the NLPCC 2026 Shared Task 11: Agent-Based Experiment Reproduction from Scientific Papers
arXiv:2609.11117v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reproducibility is essential to scientific progress, yet the growing volume and complexity of scientific publications make exhaustive manual verification increasingly impractical. Although recent advances in large language model (LLM) agents enable automated experiment reproduction, existing evaluations largely focus on final repositories and are typically limited to machine learning (ML). We introduce AgentActionBench, a process-oriented benchmark for evaluating agent-based experiment reproduction across ML and AI4Science domains. Our framework uses an MCP-based Action Recorder to capture agents' behaviour throughout the reproduction process and evaluates the resulting traces with paper-specific rubrics. AgentActionBench contains 150 papers, including 120 ML papers and 30 AI4Science papers. A human-annotated subset covering 10% of the benchmark provides validation data, while model-assisted augmentation expands the full benchmark to more than 10,000 rubric items. Experimental results show that current systems remain limited, with execution as the primary bottleneck. Meanwhile, the strong Pearson and Spearman correlations between model-generated and human-annotated rubrics validate the reliability of our scalable rubric-generation approach.
