Model Performance
Robustness & Failure Modes
BioAgent Bench provides an end-to-end benchmark and an evaluation suite for bioinformatics agents, capturing realistic workflows that require tool orchestration, artifact production, and structured outputs.
Frontier agents complete canonical pipelines with high success rates without heavy scaffolding, but robustness tests show that it comes with brittle step-level behavior such as shallow file selection heuristics, weak input validation, and sensitivity to distraction.
Frontier models achieve high pipeline completion rates. Claude Opus 4.5 attains a 100% completion rate, while Gemini 3 Pro, GPT-5.2, and Sonnet 4.5 each exceed 90%.
Open-weight models trail on average, with the best-performing model, GLM-4.7, reaching 82.5% in the Codex CLI harness and other open-weight models ranging down to 65%.
Robustness tests reveal failure modes under controlled perturbations (corrupted inputs, decoy files, and prompt bloat), indicating that correct high-level pipeline construction does not guarantee reliable step-level reasoning.
The agent correctly identified corrupted inputs in 7/10 tasks, but decoy files were used erroneously in 2/10 tasks. Prompt bloat had a pronounced negative effect on overall completion.
