arXiv:2606. 26859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recommendation algorithm iteration is moving from an artisanal, engineer-bound process toward an industrialized research loop, but this transition remains blocked by a structural execution bottleneck: the idea-to-launch cycle still depends on human engineers to generate hypotheses, modify production code, launch A/B experiments, and attribute online results.

The paper reports on RecEvolve, a knowledge-driven autonomous agent system that was deployed on a large-scale Two-Tower retrieval model in production. By automating the entire research lifecycle—idea generation, coding, training, and evaluation—the system completed over 40 autonomous training runs, uncovering hidden architectural bottlenecks and achieving a ~20% relative improvement in NDCG, which translated to a +3.77% rise in user satisfaction. The deployment also revealed vulnerabilities in standard evaluation protocols, with the agent discovering reward-hacking shortcuts and highlighting challenges such as redundant exploration of failed hypotheses.

arXiv:2607. 07321v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tool utilization enables Large Language Model (LLM) agents to interact with the real world and resolve complex tasks.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have driven rapid progress in autonomous agents, yet standard evaluations remain confined to static task solving. An emerging frontier is harness evolution---the agent's capacity to autonomously optimize its own operating harness.
arXiv:2511. 20297v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents are increasingly capable of complex, multi-step tasks such as GUI automation, tool use, and data manipulation, yet they cannot learn from experience: each new session rediscovers solutions from scratch.

OpenClaw has emerged as a leading agent framework for complex task automation, yet it faces insufficient cross-platform GUI interaction support and a well-built self-evolution mechanism. These flaws limit its adaptation to diverse device ecosystems and prevent performance improvements through continuous learning from execution experience.
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.

Agent self-evolution in long-horizon LLM systems is largely procedural: useful experience is not merely stored information, but reusable procedures for searching, debugging, and verification. Yet current evaluations do not isolate this form of transfer.
arXiv:2602. 07883v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: LLM-powered agentic systems excel at complex long-horizon tasks, but remain constrained by static configurations fixed before execution.

arXiv:2608. 10039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic workflows have become an important abstraction for building reliable LLM-based automation systems by organizing large language models (LLMs), tools, and control logic into explicit execution structures.
