arXiv:2608. 17528v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern agents operate inside agent harnesses that manage tools, context, and control flow, making the harness a critical part of the agent system.
arXiv:2607. 21557v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern AI agents rely on elaborate inference harnesses such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw to drive multi-turn reasoning, tool use, and access to external systems.
arXiv:2606. 14249v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agent performance depends critically on the runtime harness, comprising the prompts, tools, memory, and control flow that mediate how a model observes, reasons, and acts.
arXiv:2608. 17393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning for coding agents increasingly relies on long-running agent harnesses to manage tool integration, repository contexts, and execution feedback.
arXiv:2603. 20075v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Compilers are critical to modern computing, yet fixing compiler bugs is difficult.
arXiv:2608. 15071v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning from experience is critical for developing capable, self-improving large language model (LLM) agents.
arXiv:2602. 22480v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: An important emerging application of coding agents is agent harness optimization: the iterative improvement of a target agent by editing and evaluating its code.
arXiv:2608. 16798v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agent harnesses have substantially improved performance on long-horizon tasks by coordinating agent interactions with the environment.
arXiv:2607. 03451v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While skill optimization for autonomous agents has gained traction, existing methods rely on complex pipelines.
arXiv:2606. 09138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) has become an important post-training paradigm for turning LLMs from static chatbots into interactive agents, giving rise to representative applications such as OpenClaw.
arXiv:2607. 10891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly shifting toward agents that solve tasks through diverse interfaces, including web and graphical user interfaces (GUIs).
arXiv:2607. 08124v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The behavior of an LLM agent is determined not only by the underlying model, but also by its harness: the executable program that constructs context, invokes tools, verifies intermediate results, and recovers from failures.
arXiv:2607. 12463v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coding agents must integrate external tool returns into ongoing reasoning - a capability that standard left-to-right pretraining on code exposes only in its forward direction.
