Computer-use agents for scientific software require application-specific expertise. Much of this expertise is documented in human-authored software manuals and web pages. However, turning these resources into executable, reusable skills remains challenging due to mismatches between documented and deployed software versions and differences in scope between documentation coverage and task requirements. We introduce ScienceCUA, a two-stage framework combining resource-to-skill construction with execution-guided skill evolution. First, ScienceCUA identifies tasks supported by the software from its documentation, infers operational trajectories, and generalizes them into reusable Skills. Command catalogs, syntax constraints, and shortcuts are organized separately as References for on-demand lookup. Then, ScienceCUA uses execution feedback to drive skill self-evolution by contrasting successful and failed trajectories for the same task, identifying deficiencies, revising existing skills or adding new ones, and updating the skill library only after repeated validation in real environments. To enable reliable evaluation without benchmark noise or task leakage, we introduce two improved benchmarks. ScienceBoard-Verified provides an audited and corrected basis for measuring task performance, while ScienceBoard-VE separates skill evolution from final testing through disjoint evolution and test tasks and further supports native-agent evaluation. Experiments show that the initial Skills and References improve average task success rate by up to 7.23 percentage points over the base model, while skill self-evolution increases the total gain over the baseline to as much as 17.12 percentage points. ScienceCUA turns software documentation into an evolving set of executable skills and queryable references, offering a practical way for general-purpose agents to use scientific software reliably and at scale.
