## Abstract (arXiv)

While multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) excel at offline video understanding, an interesting question of how far they are from serving as a real-time procedural coach remains unknown. Such a role typically requires an MLLM to continuously monitor the execution, detect mistakes, and provide corrective guidance in a closed-loop interaction. In this paper, we construct GuideMe, the first multi-domain benchmark for streaming video that supports training and evaluation of MLLMs for closed-loop interactive task guidance. It comprises 2,458 videos spanning 223.7 hours across diverse domains (eg, cooking, object manipulation, daily-life guidance, and fitness), with 47,775 interaction samples covering next-step instructions, completion feedback, error detection, and corrective guidance. To evaluate existing models on GuideMe, we design a three-component assessment framework to measure the capabilities of representative MLLMs, which consists of temporal-semantic bipartite matching for sequence-level alignment, behavioral classification for intervention timing, and LLM-as-a-Judge for content quality. Extensive experiments highlight a critical performance asymmetry: despite excelling at providing instructions, existing MLLMs consistently fail to identify execution errors and respond with corrective feedback.
