Trajectory Evaluation: Assessing Path Efficiency, Step Redundancy, and Sub-Goal Quality

In the early phases of autonomous agent evaluation, benchmarks treated execution as an opaque black box. Systems were measured almost entirely on terminal outcomes: did the agent reach the goal, yes or no? While binary task completion provides an essential baseline signal, relying exclusively on terminal success conceals the operational quality, unit economics, and safety […]

Trajectory Evaluation: Assessing Path Efficiency, Step Redundancy, and Sub-Goal Quality

In the initial evaluation era for autonomous agents, benchmarks treated execution as an opaque black box. Systems were measured almost exclusively on outcome metrics: did the agent reach the goal, yes or no? While binary task completion rate provides a critical bottom-line signal, relying entirely on terminal success hides the underlying quality, economics, and safety […]
