Mage-VL-CoworkA Full Training Recipe to Learn Hybrid Computer Use from Evolved Harnesses Computer-use agents (CUAs) that confine themselves to pixels pay a heavy tax: a single screenshot consumes thousands of tokens, and re-deriving structured file edits through dozens of mouse clicks discards the fastest, most verifiable channel on the machine. Conversely, giving a frontier model naive access to both GUI and terminal tools does not automatically produce hybrid competence — without an optimized execution scaffold, even frontier teachers exhibit suboptimal channel habits that transfer directly to distilled students. Worse, existing CUA post-training pipelines rely on checkpoints already heavily specialized for GUI grounding and coding. Mage-VL-Cowork bridges this gap. Trained end-to-end from an intermediate 4B Mage-VL checkpoint through a progressive five-stage specialize-then-unify curriculum, it combines screenshot-grounded GUI interaction (computeruse) and persistent code/terminal execution (bash) inside a single vision-language policy — with no external orchestrator. Upstream of training, we evolve the teacher…
