SimVerity: When Does Simulated Agent Success Survive Physical Deployment?

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 25, 2026 · UTC

Simulated evaluation is widely used to benchmark AI agents, yet how much evidence a simulated pass provides about physical deployment has not been systematically quantified. We present SimVerity, a verdict-transfer assurance framework: it replays matched scenarios on target smart home deployments and cross-validates agent execution against independently qualified physical witnesses. Our evaluation highlights that deployment success is a real-world process, not a static property in simulation: completion, reported state, observable effect, and settled outcome diverged within the same execution.
