The paper introduces a configuration-first framework called LOCALIZE that streamlines machine learning experimentation by declaring experiments in human-readable configuration files and orchestrating isolated processes for each workflow stage. It version‑controls code, data, configurations, and artifacts, enabling reproducible runs. A qualitative comparison with five platforms and quantitative tests against Jupyter and Kedro show that LOCALIZE reduces code edits while keeping time and memory usage comparable, and scales sublinearly with dataset size.

Software engineering tools increasingly rely on LLM based agents to localize files to change to resolve a software issue. Most AI agents explore repositories linearly, that is, visiting one directory or file per step.
