The advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) has catalyzed the development of autonomous agents capable of navigating complex environments. However, existing evaluations primarily adopt a deductive paradigm, where agents execute tasks based on explicitly provided rules and static goals, often within limited planning horizons. Crucially, this neglects the inductive necessity for agents to discover latent transition laws from experience autonomously, which is the cornerstone for enabling agentic foresight and sustaining strategic coherence. To bridge this gap, we introduce OdysseyArena, which re-centers agent evaluation on long-horizon, active, and inductive interactions. We formalize and instantiate four primitives, translating abstract transition dynamics into concrete interactive environments. Building upon this, we establish OdysseyArena-Lite for standardized benchmarking, providing a set of 120 tasks to measure an agent's inductive efficiency and long-horizon discovery. Pushing further, we introduce OdysseyArena-Challenge to stress-test agent stability across extreme interaction horizons (e.g., > 200 steps). Extensive experiments on 15+ leading LLMs reveal that even frontier models exhibit a deficiency in inductive scenarios, identifying a critical bottleneck in the pursuit of autonomous discovery in complex environments.

Long-term conversational memory is a core capability for LLM-baseddialogue systems, yet existing benchmarks and evaluation protocolsprimarily focus on surface-level factual recall.In realistic interactions, appropriate responses often depend onimplicit constraints such as user state, goals, or values that are notexplicitly queried later.To evaluate this setting, we introduce LoCoMo-Plus, a benchmarkfor assessing cognitive memory under cue–trigger semantic disconnect,where models must retain and apply latent constraints across longconversational contexts.We further show that conventional string-matching metrics and explicittask-type prompting are misaligned with such scenarios, and propose aunified evaluation framework based on constraint consistency.Experiments across diverse backbone models, retrieval-based methods, andmemory systems demonstrate that cognitive memory remains challenging andreveals failures not captured by existing benchmarks.Our code and evaluation framework are publicly available at https://github.com/xjtuleeyf/Locomo-Plus.
