Practical overview
When it fits
Use Clawbench when you need benchmark resources and tooling to assess or compare browser agents on daily tasks, rather than a browser agent that performs tasks for end users.
Who it is for
- Researchers comparing browser-agent performance on everyday tasks.
- Developers evaluating changes to browser agents over time.
- Teams looking for an open-source benchmark and Python tooling for browser-agent evaluation.
Documented uses
- Evaluate a browser AI agent against daily-task benchmark material.
- Compare browser-agent evaluation results.
- Track changes in browser-agent performance.
- Inspect benchmark data and agent traces.
Requirements & limits
The project is open source under the Apache-2.0 license. The README documents package installation through uv, pipx or pip, and a repository workflow requiring Python 3.11 or later, uv and Docker or Podman.
- The documented focus is browser agents and daily tasks; individual benchmark task details are not included in the cited material.
- Local repository use requires Python 3.11 or later, uv and Docker or Podman.
- The project separates its dataset and traces from its leaderboard and evaluation tooling.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Install the Clawbench evaluation package
Install the published clawbench-eval package and identify its command-line tools.
Before you start
- Python 3.11 or later
- One of uv, pipx or Python pip
Steps
Install with the command below,
pipx install clawbench-evalor the command below.uv tool install clawbench-evalpython -m pip install clawbench-evalReview the installed command names listed in the README: clawbench, clawbench-run, clawbench-batch, clawbench-rescore, clawbench-analyze, clawbench-reproduce and clawbench-harbor-adapt.
Expected outcome
The clawbench-eval package is installed, and its documented command names are available for further use.
Guide limitations
- The cited installation instructions do not explain how to configure or run an evaluation through these commands.
Prepare the repository quick start
Clone the repository and prepare its documented local-run prerequisites.
Before you start
- Python 3.11 or later
- uv
- Docker or Podman
Steps
Install Python 3.11 or later and uv.
Install Docker or Podman as the container engine.
Clone the Clawbench repository and change into its directory.
Run
./run.shfrom the repository directory.
Expected outcome
The documented repository quick-start command is invoked with the stated prerequisites.
Guide limitations
- The available README material does not specify the evaluation task selection, agent configuration or expected run output.
