arXiv:2608.11216v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: World modeling is an unsettled field: architectures, training objectives, and state representations interact in complex ways, and no single recipe dominates across environments. This makes it an ideal testbed for AI coding agents acting as autonomous researchers--a setting in which the improvement direction is not specified in advance, unlike the engineering-to-spec tasks that dominate current agent benchmarks. We introduce AutoWorldModel-Bench, a closed-loop benchmark in which frontier coding agents autonomously improve a provided base world model under a fixed compute budget. The benchmark spans eight game environments under a unified structured-state representation--ground-truth entity state extracted from each game and consumed through a shared tensor format--which isolates dynamics modeling from perception and enables minutes-per-run iteration. Across 64 sessions, Codex-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6 improve their base on a held-out test split in all but one session, with about half (33 of 64) a substantial gain ($\Delta \geq +0.10$) and the remaining improvements smaller but positive; in 91% of sessions the winning edit is a substantive change to the model or training rather than a hyperparameter tweak. Our benchmark offers a setting in which frontier coding agents can be evaluated on open-ended research rather than engineering-to-spec problems.
