About this paper

Gideon Shaked, Siddharth Nagisetty

OmicsBench evaluates agents on research-scale bioinformatics workflows by turning dependent analyses into successive requests in one continuing session, with an optional gated retry after feedback. Across 97 tasks and 12 models, Opus 5 on OpenCode averages 0.57 in single-pass mode and 0.67 in gated mode. The gain may reflect answer-searching, not corrected analysis, and does not establish reliable autonomous research.
