TreasuryQA Bench: best agent solved 64.8% of scanned financial-records tasks

According to a post on X by @SciFi, a new benchmark called TreasuryQA Bench uses 70 questions over 1,435 scanned U.S. Treasury publications kept in a Dropbox twin. Agents must find files through Dropbox's MCP server and read the scans with OCR. Of ten agents tested, Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code solved 64.8% of attempts, while GPT-5.6 Terra in Codex solved 16.7%, and every agent performed worse on blurrier scans.

The reported results suggest that tasks like pulling answers from scanned financial records remain error-prone, even for the strongest agent tested. Teams building agents that work with file stores or OCR pipelines may want to note the drop in accuracy on lower-quality scans. Watch for the full benchmark details to see how the results were measured.
