arXiv:2608. 05144v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon reasoning requires an agentic runtime that can persist when evidence supports its current approach and pivot when measurements reveal failure, hidden constraints, or a misspecified objective.
The paper introduces agentic meta‑reasoning, a structured inference‑time framework that explicitly manages control decisions—such as selecting partial work, restarting, or stopping—during long‑horizon agentic tasks. By delegating task execution to workers and consolidating decisions through a lightweight controller that references persistent memory, the method reduces the need to replay full histories. Experiments on ProgramBench and other benchmarks show that meta‑reasoning improves performance over direct control baselines, especially as computation budgets increase, and reveals greater reuse of earlier work and higher solution coverage.
arXiv:2607. 06764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent progress on ARC-AGI-1 from disclosed architectures has come broadly from two regimes: heavy test-time compute over frontier models (evolutionary search, exhaustive sampling, extended chain-of-thought), or benchmark-specific training in which small models are fine-tuned on ARC data, often with task-specialized architectures.
JIT‑Agent is a model that automatically generates task‑adaptive agent harnesses for any off‑the‑shelf LLM, replacing manual, task‑specific harness design. It learns to compose, repair, and evolve harnesses using a fixed four‑module protocol, and its use boosts performance on benchmarks such as DeepSearchQA and OdysseyBench, outperforming several mature agent runtimes. The approach demonstrates that harness intelligence can be trained, transferred, and compounded independently of model scaling.
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.
The paper introduces a self‑evolving harness framework where a frozen language‑model agent first solves tasks and then edits its own harness based on run records. Using a 49‑line seed harness, the evolved harness improves average scores on in‑distribution benchmarks by 4.48 points and on out‑of‑distribution benchmarks by 12.64 points, surpassing Codex on the former and matching it on the latter. Continued evolution on a specific out‑of‑distribution benchmark further raises performance, and the study analyzes emergent mechanisms such as output truncation and history compaction.

arXiv:2510. 05592v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Outcome-driven reinforcement learning has advanced reasoning in large language models (LLMs), but prevailing tool-augmented approaches train a single, monolithic policy that interleaves thoughts and tool calls under full context; this scales poorly with long horizons and diverse tools and generalizes weakly to new scenarios.
arXiv:2606. 05080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific and engineering progress is fundamentally a long-horizon iterative process: proposing changes, running experiments, measuring outcomes, and continuously refining artifacts.
The paper introduces Recuris, a recursive Experiential‑Working Memory architecture that lets long‑horizon agents track task progress and select skills based on current needs rather than full history. By coupling working memory with experiential memory, execution becomes structured evidence that localizes failures to specific memory components, enabling a bounded recursive memory‑evolution loop. Across four benchmarks and ten models, Recuris improves task success in 35 of 37 model‑benchmark pairs, raising state‑of‑the‑art performance on tau‑bench and SkillFlow and reducing common long‑horizon failures by up to 80%.
