Agent capability is not determined by the model alone. The agent harness, encompassing memory management, planning strategy, action protocol, and tool/skill orchestration, can dominate the contribution of the underlying foundation model.

LLM agents remain unreliable on long-horizon tasks, where small local failures can compound over extended interactions and lead to overall task failure. Although external harnesses can substantially improve robustness, harness design remains a manual and expensive process that…

Long-horizon agents can fail even when their underlying models can solve the constituent steps. They may lose track of mutable state, fail to reactivate lessons from earlier executions, skip known procedures, or stop prematurely.

LLM agents learn by interacting with environments, yet these environments are hand-built and static: blind to an agent's weaknesses, and quickly left behind as it improves.

Recursive self-improvement (RSI) remains hard in long-horizon tasks, where growing histories obscure the task state and misalign skill invocation. We introduce Recuris, a recursive Experiential-Working Memory architecture for long-horizon agent harnesses, in which Working Memory…

Scientific agents increasingly analyze data, execute code, and produce research artifacts, yet most benchmarks emphasize final answers, isolated programs, or a single domain. We introduce FrontierChallenge, a cross-domain benchmark comprising 300 end-to-end scientific workflows.

LLMs have evolved from language generators to autonomous agents capable of complex, long-horizon tasks. This evolution has produced paradigms including Prompt Engineering to elicit model capabilities, Context Engineering to manage information access, Harness Engineering to…

Modern LLM agents are often improved by modifying prompts, tools, or workflows manually, while the executable scaffold surrounding the model---the \emph{harness}---is typically treated as a fixed artifact after deployment.

We study autonomous mathematical discovery in the Station, an open-world multi-agent environment in which AI agents from different model families pursue a shared research goal without a central coordinator or scripted pipeline.

Continuous self-improvement requires an ever-expanding pool of self-generated, diverse, adaptive goals. For language agents, existing training environment pools (hand-curated, statically synthesized, or frozen-verifier) keep the goal distribution fixed as the learner scales.

Recent advances in foundation models have enabled AI scientists to automate increasingly complete research workflows, from hypothesis generation and code execution to manuscript preparation.

Long-horizon LLM agents must preserve information from past interactions to support future tasks. Existing memory systems typically rely on eager consolidation, invoking LLMs after each interaction to extract, summarize, or update memories.

Scientific discovery increasingly requires AI systems that can reason over scientific evidence of heterogeneous modalities, interact with scientific tools and environments, and sustain progress across long task horizons.

Agent benchmarks often evaluate only final answers even when agents run on stateful runtimes. We argue this under-specifies what is being evaluated: the proper unit is a declared model-plus-runtime configuration whose failures can occur in evidence acquisition, runtime routing,…

We present SuperLocalMemory 4.0, a governed, local-first memory operating system for AI agents, unifying multi-channel retrieval under reciprocal-rank fusion, bi-temporal recall, multi-scope isolation, role-based access, verified erasure, and a hash-chained audit trail.
