CoworkEnv constructs coworker tasks by linking requests, records, tool interfaces, and grading checks across services. It uses teacher demonstrations for supervised fine-tuning and student interactions for reinforcement learning. For Qwen3-VL-8B-Instruct, supervised fine-tuning raises the Claw-Eval mean from 46.6 to 64.1, with the largest gain on multi-turn tasks. These results do not isolate the contribution of CoworkEnv’s construction methods.
