Researchers have developed ASAP, a new framework designed to evaluate the agentic capabilities of large language models during their pretraining phase. Unlike existing methods that use static tasks or likelihood proxies, ASAP employs interactive end-to-end tasks. This approach adapts agent scaffolds through structured trajectory continuation and minimal recovery mechanisms, allowing for a more direct assessment of how models perform in dynamic environments without needing to convert them into chat agents. The framework has shown promise in distinguishing performance across various models and pretraining checkpoints, offering insights into the development of agent-relevant skills. AI
