From Transient Prompts to Persistent Control: Scientific Poster Generation via Recursive Semantic-Geometric Contracts

The paper introduces PosterVisor, a framework that replaces transient prompts with persistent control for scientific poster generation. It uses an Orchestrator to compile rubrics into Semantic‑Geometric Contracts that bind claims, sources, visuals, budgets, and spatial commitments, and employs Recursive Contract Enforcement to dynamically trigger checks and prevent silent regressions. Implementations in HTML/CSS and PPTX show improved QA accuracy and higher human preference on benchmark datasets.

PosterHarness: Turning Scientific Poster Generation into an Auditable Instruction-Following Benchmark

arXiv:2607. 03006v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-rich image models can now design poster-scale layouts, but we lack ways to measure whether they honor scientific communication contracts: legible labels, prescribed aspect ratios, and -- above all -- abstaining from fabricated scientific figures.

AgenticCADedit: A Stateful, Tool-Mediated Agentic Approach to Multimodal 3D CAD Editing

AgenticCADedit introduces a stateful, tool‑mediated approach to multimodal 3D CAD editing, transforming the process from generating a single complete program to executing a sequence of incremental, verifiable actions on a persistent CAD state. By committing each step, inspecting geometry, and selectively reverting faulty operations, the method preserves partial progress and builds upon earlier edits. Experiments across three large language models show substantial gains in validity and acceptance, with the weakest baseline model’s validity rising from 51.0% to 94.8% and a token‑cost reduction of 66.7% compared to neuralCAD‑Edit.

ACE: A Self-Correcting Agentic Canvas Editor for Multi-Slide Presentation Automation

ACE is a self‑correcting agentic canvas editor that operates on a hierarchical scene‑graph rather than flat document formats, enabling reliable multi‑slide presentation automation. It pairs a presentation‑specialized action space of 98 tools with CARE, a content‑aware router that reduces input tokens by about 89%, and a ground‑truth‑free instruction‑following judge that feeds natural‑language critiques back into the agent for self‑correction. In benchmarks, ACE outperforms a comparable agentic HTML pipeline on instruction following (4.23 vs. 3.81), runs 1.75× faster, costs 44% less, and is preferred by 58.7% of blind raters, with 81% favoring the self‑corrected output.

BlueprintAgent: Constraint-Triggered Targeted Revisits for Simulation-Ready Generation from Scanned Structural Blueprints

BlueprintAgent (BPA) is a multimodal agent that converts scanned reinforced‑concrete building blueprints into simulation‑ready frame models by treating a large language model (MLLM) as the primary reader and decision maker, while OCR and computer vision provide localized evidence. BPA implements engineering constraints as callable validators that trigger targeted MLLM revisits over specific regions, enabling precise beam‑column support, span count, and 3D continuity checks. In evaluations on 300 real scanned sheets from 20 projects, BPA achieved a macro‑averaged Beam F1 of 0.994, vastly outperforming single‑MLLM zero‑shot (0.301) and fixed‑pipeline (0.820) baselines.

Designer-RSI: Evolving Procedural Memory from User Traffic for Agentic Graphic Design

Designer‑RSI presents a continual adaptation framework that lets a frozen frontier model operate professional design software while an external procedural memory learns natural‑language design skills from user traffic. Over five rounds on 1,406 real briefs and 1,869 graded trajectories, the memory grew from 76 to 139 skills, boosting execution success from 72.7% to 99.3% and improving win rates on four design benchmarks. The study shows that widening and deepening the memory, especially together, significantly outperforms a no‑skill baseline.

REVISE: Validity-Guided Recovery for Online Revisions in Agent Workflows

The paper introduces “Revise”, a runtime system that performs validity-guided, fine-grained recovery for online revisions in structured agent workflows. When a revision arrives, Revise intersects the change with recorded data and control dependencies, propagates the impact through the partially executed DAG, stops invalid work, preserves unaffected progress, and recomputes only the affected region. Experiments on real coding‑agent traces and LangGraph/LLMCompiler applications show that Revise matches a latest‑version oracle, reduces model calls by up to 56%, and improves service‑level objective goodput under load.

Plan, Watch, Recover: A Benchmark and Architectures for Proactive Procedural Assistance

arXiv:2606. 04970v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We envision a proactive multi-modal assistant system which gives users real-time step-by-step guidance on a procedural task, autonomously deciding \textit{when} to interrupt, and \textit{how} to coach.
