Harness Self-Evolution for Long-Horizon Terminal Agents

RiseHarness is a framework for iteratively improving agent harnesses with model weights fixed that treats a specific model as the unit of harness adaptation, studying how changes to shared interaction mechanisms can make existing capabilities more reliable across tasks.

KPHarness: Co-Evolving Knowledge and Probing for Long-Horizon Gaming Harnesses

A failed gaming trajectory reveals that an agent needs intervention, but not necessarily how its execution harness should change. Effective harness adaptation therefore requires gathering diagnostic evidence, rather than merely proposing alternative recovery rules. We present KPHarness, a framework that adapts the exte...

More Memory, Worse Agents: Error Reproduction and Anti-Persistence in LLM Agents

LLM agents can improve across tasks without updating model parameters by storing experience from their own executions in external memory and reusing it to guide later decisions. A central design question is whether to retain only observed trajectories and outcomes or also the rules, summaries, and skills inferred from...

ProMemAgent: Long-Horizon Proactive Assistance with Context-Aware Prospective Memory from Sensory Perceptions

Large language model (LLM) agents are moving beyond reactive responses toward proactive assistance that anticipates user needs without explicit requests. However, existing proactive agents primarily address immediate needs, while many everyday situations involve delayed intentions that can only be acted on hours or day...

Unified Sharp Bounds on Probabilities of Causation

Probabilities of causation (PoCs) have developed steadily, from the binary measures first introduced by Pearl to the non-binary setting recently studied by Shu et al. As the theory has matured, PoCs have found applications in a growing range of areas, including personalized medicine, marketing and legal attribution. Sh...

When PTQ Calibration Helps or Hurts: Dose-Driven Collapse and Validation-Gated Abstention in Quantized Text Embedders

Learned post-training quantization (PTQ) calibration fits quantizer parameters on a small calibration set, and for a text embedder the natural supervision is retrieval relevance. We ask two questions that are usually conflated: how far to calibrate, and whether to calibrate at all. Across three embedders (e5-base-v2, B...

Correcting Attribution Patching with a Few Exact Measurements

Mechanistic interpretability asks which language model components matter for a behavior, and activation patching answers by changing one component's activation and measuring its effect, at a cost growing with components and prompts. Attribution patching estimates these effects from one gradient pass, but its estimates...

REM: What to Store, When to Recall, What to Forget in Experience Memory for Coding Agents

REM (Reusable Experience Memory) is introduced, a framework that manages the memory lifecycle from inside the agent's think-act loop through three explicit decisions, demonstrating that the bottleneck in experience reuse is not retrieval fidelity but how experience is stored and governed across its lifecycle, opening a...

An LLM-Based Agent for Legal Compliance Assessment: Architecture, Memory, and Evaluation in a Canadian and Quebec Context

This paper presents ComplianceAgent, the legal compliance sub-agent of COMPASS, a multi-agent framework that evaluates texts along four axes: digital sovereignty, carbon impact, compliance, and ethics, and evaluates the agent in a Canadian and Quebec context.

Modeling Authentic Research Trajectories: A Graph View of Research Ideation

The research idea in a published paper is rarely the project's initial idea. Between the two lies a closed-loop process in which researchers run experiments, derive insights, identify challenges, explore the literature, and revise the idea, with each step motivated by evidence and reasoning they can articulate. We call...

Unsupervised Tool Evolution for Coding Agents in Data-Lake Analytics

Coding agents can answer analytical questions over a data lake by discovering, cleaning, and joining the relevant data. However, they discard this work after each question and redo it from scratch for the next one. Tool evolution, which automatically builds and refines reusable tools across tasks, is a natural fit for...

Evolving Self-tuning Benchmarks for Long-Horizon Tool Use

For AI assistants to move beyond simple chat interfaces and reliably assist users with applications like Gmail, Venmo, and Slack, we need to improve their tool-use capabilities. However, existing tool use benchmarks are still limited and difficult to scale because they rely on human supervision or are too domain-specif...
