MAGMA-Bench: Evaluating Long-Horizon Embodied Agents under Dynamic Tasks and Execution Failures

We introduce MAGMA-Bench, an architecture-agnostic benchmark for persistent task reasoning in dynamic multi-robot environments.

Key points

  • Long-horizon embodied agents must maintain task-relevant information, coordinate heterogeneous robots, and adapt their decisions as execution unfolds.
  • Existing benchmarks investigate dynamic task execution and embodied multi-agent coordination, but provide limited evaluation of their intersection.
  • MAGMA-Bench evaluates agents across increasing task horizons and controlled online perturbations, including execution failures, task interruptions, and mission updates, with scenarios requiring coordination across robots with heterogeneous capabilities.
  • We release the benchmark, 261,646 task-level training examples, and an architecture-agnostic expert-trace generation pipeline.
