High-quality scientific data is critical for advancing LLMs, yet academic literature remains largely underutilized. This work addresses the fundamental question: How can we systematically unlock scientific data’s value for pre-training? First, we construct a large-scale raw scientific corpus but identify a critical Learnability Gap, revealing that direct pre-training yields negligible gains. To bridge this, we develop a multi-stage pipeline featuring content cleaning and pedagogical augmentation, resulting in SciPedia, a 900B-token corpus. Finally, we establish a controlled verification framework: we develop SciPedia-Eval benchmark and conduct 600B tokens of continued pre-training (CPT) starting from transparent base models (3B/7B) trained from scratch. Compared to a CPT baseline trained with general-purpose data, our approach with SciPedia data boosts average performance by +2.12 (3B) and +2.95 (7B), reaching +5.60 and +8.40 on in-domain tasks. This setup further allows us to derive empirical guidelines for data composition and model configurations.

Large Language Models (LLMs) based autonomous agents demonstrate multifaceted capabilities to contribute substantially to economic production. However, existing benchmarks remain focused on single agentic capability, failing to capture long-horizon real-world scenarios. Moreover, the reliance on human-in-the-loop feedback for realistic tasks creates a scalability bottleneck, hindering automated rollout collection and evaluation. To bridge this gap, we introduce AgencyBench, a comprehensive benchmark derived from daily AI usage, evaluating 6 core agentic capabilities across 32 real-world scenarios, comprising 138 tasks with specific queries, deliverables, and rubrics. These scenarios require an average of 90 tool calls, 1 million tokens, and hours of execution time to resolve. To enable automated evaluation, we employ a user simulation agent to provide iterative feedback, and a Docker sandbox to conduct visual and functional rubric-based assessment. Experiments reveal that closed-source models significantly outperform open-source models (48.4% vs 32.1%). Further analysis reveals significant disparities across models in resource efficiency, feedback-driven self-correction, and specific tool-use preferences.
