MemMA: Coordinating the Memory Cycle through Multi-Agent Reasoning and In-Situ Self-Evolution

MemMA is a plug‑and‑play multi‑agent framework that coordinates the memory cycle of memory‑augmented LLM agents on both forward and backward paths. On the forward path, a Meta‑Thinker guides a Memory Manager for construction and a Query Reasoner for iterative retrieval. On the backward path, MemMA performs in‑situ self‑evolving memory construction, generating probe QA pairs, verifying the memory, and converting failures into repair actions before finalization. Experiments on LoCoMo show that MemMA consistently outperforms existing baselines across multiple LLM backbones and improves three different storage backends.

HarnessEvolve: Learning from Reference Trajectories for Reliable Agent Self-Evolution

HarnessEvolve is a self‑evolving framework that improves agent harnesses—prompts, skills, tools, and execution logic—by learning from reference trajectories. It separates execution, evaluation, optimization, and gating into independent modules, addressing credit assignment failure, shortcut learning, and catastrophic forgetting. The approach uses reference trajectories to extract error signals, applies quality and performance gates to candidate updates, and validates updates on held‑out data, consistently outperforming state‑of‑the‑art baselines across diverse benchmarks.

PACEvolve: Enabling Progress-Aware Consistent Evolution

The paper introduces PACEvolve, a framework that improves self‑evolving agents powered by Large Language Models by addressing their tendency to become trapped in local contexts and repeat flawed hypotheses. It does so through three techniques: Hierarchical Context Management to prune memory, Momentum‑Based Backtracking to escape local minima, and a self‑adaptive Collaborative Evolution policy to balance refinement and knowledge transfer. These methods enable the agents to maintain a global view of search momentum and achieve state‑of‑the‑art results on complex evolutionary benchmarks.
