Recent image generators have demonstrated impressive photorealism and instruction-following capabilities in single-image generation and editing. However, constrained by their architectures, they cannot achieve interleaved generation (text-image sequence), which has crucial applications in visual narratives, guidance, and embodied manipulation.

OmniHarness is a framework that enables generalizable visual generation by learning symbolic policies from verified executions. It abstracts shared procedures and applicability conditions, allowing these policies to be instantiated, adapted, and composed for new tasks while keeping model parameters fixed. The system uses intermediate verification for refinement, self-directed inquiry to generate practice tasks, and continuous feedback to expand capabilities, achieving strong results on multiple benchmarks and outperforming baselines on Creative tasks.

MM-IFEval-Pro is a new multilingual benchmark for evaluating instruction-following in vision-language models, covering both Chinese and English tasks. It includes 4 major task categories, 24 subcategories, and 8 instruction categories with 52 subcategories, each sample featuring an average of 3.0 constraints to mimic complex instruction scenarios. A reinforcement-learning training set with Chinese and adversarial instructions improves model performance on MM-IFEval-Pro and transfers well to other multimodal benchmarks, showing strong cross-task and cross-language generalization.

WeAgent-MMGenEdit is a comprehensive framework for multimodal agentic image generation and editing that addresses the unreliability of current models when prompts require external world knowledge. It introduces a multimodal harness with persistent evidence management, a scalable data construction pipeline producing 23K supervised trajectories and 14.7K RL tasks, and a bilingual benchmark (WeBench-MMGenEdit) for knowledge-intensive generation and multi-image editing. Post‑training methods based on SFT and RL further refine the agent policy and image backend, enabling a 30B‑parameter policy to outperform similarly sized models and approach the performance of a 1T‑parameter agent.

arXiv:2606. 30296v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-round reflection lets agents built on large language models recover from failures within a single task, but each task remains an isolated episode: lessons learned across many reflection rounds on one task are discarded before the next begins.

arXiv:2608. 05249v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world multimodal instructions often bundle multiple requirements with unequal importance, yet most multimodal training data still reduce instruction following to answering one self-contained question.

ATP‑Bench proposes a new benchmark for evaluating agentic tool planning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) that generate interleaved text-and-image responses. The benchmark contains 7,702 QA pairs, including 1,592 visual‑question‑answer pairs, across eight categories and 25 visual‑critical intents, all verified by humans. A Multi‑Agent MLLM‑as‑a‑Judge (MAM) system is introduced to assess tool‑call precision, missed opportunities, and overall response quality without relying on ground‑truth references.
