Vision-language models are shifting from offline passive understanding toward online proactive interaction. However, prevailing methods largely rely on explicit requests while miss the implicit user intent (e.g., "where should I click next?" while a user navigate a website), meanwhile fail to update the state simultaneously as user requests might update continuously. These limitations make them less suited to intent-aware interaction in practical. To address these challenges, we introduce StreamVibe-Bench, a new benchmark serving as testbed for user intent interaction, with 4.1K evaluation samples and 85K training samples spanning explicit, implicit, and dynamic intents. Building on this benchmark, we develop StreamVibe-VL, a streaming proactive model that infers implicit user intents from continuous observations and dynamically tailors its interactions as these intents evolve. We further introduce StreamVibe-Harness, which maintains user intents as persistent states with a fleixble lifecycles via a hierarchical memory to track the latest user intent and environmental state. Our experiments reveal three key findings: (i) StreamVibe-VL preserves strong general video understanding while improving response timing and answer quality by 10.7% over other baselines; (ii) existing proactive models remain limited in understanding user intent and deciding when to respond, especially under implicit and dynamic intents; and (iii) StreamVibe-Harness further improves response consistency and adaptation over sustained interaction, resulting in a 12.3% gain in proactive interaction.
