A Survey on Foundations and Frontiers of Multimodal Agentic Frameworks: Techniques and Applications

The paper surveys how large multimodal models (LMMs) enhance agentic frameworks that combine perception, memory, reasoning, planning, and action. It examines the integration of multiple modalities—text, images, audio, and video—through delegated, late‑fusion, and early‑fusion architectures, and maps these designs to agent capabilities. The survey also reviews multimodal agentic systems in robotics, web navigation, multimedia content creation, and video understanding, evaluating performance, efficiency, and scalability trade‑offs.

WeAgent-MMSearch: Native Text-Vision Interaction for Multimodal Search Agents

WeAgent-MMSearch introduces a multimodal search agent that preserves retrieved images as persistent references, enabling the model to inspect, process, and cite them throughout a search trajectory. The system includes a harness (WeAgent-Harness), a post‑training method (FA‑GSPO) that recovers salvageable rollouts, and a new benchmark (VisTarget‑Bench) to evaluate image‑retrieval versus visual‑perception failures. Evaluation shows that agentic post‑training boosts performance by 19.22 points, allowing the model to outperform similarly sized open‑source models and compete with much larger ones.

OpenWebRL: Demystifying Online Multi-turn Reinforcement Learning for Visual Web Agents

Building capable visual web agents requires long-horizon reasoning, precise grounding, and robust interaction with dynamic real-world websites. Despite rapid progress, the strongest systems remain largely proprietary, while open agents still depend heavily on supervised post-training over large collections of curated web trajectories.
