arXiv:2608. 07545v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: An LLM agent's capability depends not only on model weights but on its harness: prompts, tools, skills, and control flow.

arXiv:2608. 09629v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-evolving agents are usually built around prescribed optimization pipelines: the framework decides how to gather evidence, revise a persistent artifact, select candidates, and stop.
By Hui Xue, Fan Yang
arXiv:2606. 15363v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-improvement in AI agents has emerged as a key research frontier: systems that modify their own prompts, workflows, and decision rules based on accumulated operational experience.

arXiv:2608. 13951v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling agent capability has largely focused on improving the model, yet an interactive agent acts through a runtime harness that mediates context, tools, control flow, and stopping.

arXiv:2607. 21971v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Test-time scaling through iterative self-evolution with environment feedback, as demonstrated by AlphaEvolve, shows remarkable performance gains.

arXiv:2605. 09018v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the Evolving Ensemble of Agents (EvE), a decentralized framework that organizes existing, highly capable coding agents into a live, co-evolving system for algorithmic discovery.

arXiv:2608. 14441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-evolving agents improve future behavior from interaction experience, yet existing evaluations typically optimize under fixed execution conditions and do not test recovery after those conditions change.

arXiv:2607. 28691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Personalized AI agents are often configurable without giving users control over the artifacts that determine their future behavior.
