Researchers have introduced a new capability called "World Editing" for intervening in executable environments, such as video games, while preserving intended properties. They developed a benchmark, IGMBench, comprising 110 tasks across Minecraft and Terraria, to evaluate this capability. The benchmark assesses interventions at property, entity, dynamics, and system levels, using deterministic executability, behavioral, preservation, and visual checks. Current frontier coding agents demonstrate significant proficiency, solving over 78% of tasks under strict criteria, though reliability decreases with intervention depth and visual consistency remains a challenge.
