Work2Skill: Capturing Human GUI Experience for Reusable Agent Skill Induction

We thus introduce Work2Skill, a framework that captures human GUI experience for reusable agent skill induction.

Key points

  • Computer-use agents can perform increasingly complex GUI tasks, yet unfamiliar software and workflows requiring human domain knowledge remain challenging.
  • Human demonstrations convey procedural knowledge through the same GUI interaction space, but reuse requires interpreting actions in context and separating workflow rules from task-specific details.
  • WorkRecorder provides the framework's infrastructure for collecting this experience, aligning screen recordings, mouse and keyboard events, and available accessibility-tree information.
  • We then propose an agentic skill-induction method that inspects evidence on demand to produce reusable skills capturing workflow rules, step dependencies, and completion checks.
