arXiv:2607. 08252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term persona agents must remain identifiable while adapting to new events, relationships, evidence, and social conditions.
arXiv:2607. 26598v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents may recover from a failure within an episode or after a retry, yet the same execution failure can recur in later tasks because post-episode feedback rarely revises the persistent harness that guides future interactions.
arXiv:2607. 28818v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As AI companions increasingly mediate repeated social interaction, users may rely on a stable role and shared history, yet locally acceptable replies do not ensure that either persists.
The paper introduces an online skill‑evolution framework that transforms interaction traces and evaluator feedback into a persistent, versioned library of reusable procedures for computer‑use agents. By executing each iteration against a frozen library snapshot, the system updates skills without altering the underlying model parameters. Experiments across four OSWorld domains show that the evolving library consistently outperforms an empty‑library baseline, with gains ranging from 5.7 to 18.6 percentage points, while also revealing domain‑specific temporal stability and challenges in skill retrieval and revision.
ContextEcho is a benchmark and harness designed to measure persona drift in large language models during long, tool‑using coding sessions. It includes a 25‑probe identity suite, a snapshot‑then‑probe protocol that preserves the main conversation, and both judged and judge‑free measurement surfaces. Across 23 frontier models and thousands of turns, the benchmark shows that persona drift is widespread, not limited to specific model families, and that simple in‑session compaction does not reset it, while a single‑shot anchor can restore the intended persona.

Emergi-PersonaOS is a psychology‑grounded operating system designed to manage persona agents throughout their lifecycle. It structures personas into three layers—dispositional traits, characteristic adaptations, and narrative identity—allowing the system to infer current persona states from situational cues and generate appropriate actions. The OS records experiences, evaluates revision candidates, and controls belief updates through explicit review and traceable evidence, enabling controllable evolution of persona agents over long interactions.
The article surveys safety concerns for self‑evolving agents that continually update their internal state, such as model parameters and memories, from new interactions. It introduces the SAVER framework, which tracks reusable influence, adaptation, violations, exposure, and response to assess whether safety properties persist as agents evolve. The survey finds that legitimate state can become unsafe when its persistence, authority, or scope expands beyond its original conditions, and highlights gaps in current research on descendant repair and longitudinal evaluation.
Social simulation offers the social sciences an experimental instrument that the real world cannot supply, and generative agents have transformed it by acting as silicon samples that unite agent-based...
arXiv:2608. 14270v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series analysis in high-stakes domains relies on recurring data releases, where new observations can alter the evidence base and the validity of later conclusions.
arXiv:2608. 09380v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon complex tasks require agents to repeatedly observe states, formulate plans, invoke tools, verify results, and recover from failures in continuously changing environments.
Self-evolving agents convert interaction feedback into persistent artifacts, such as memories or skills, which in turn guide subsequent decisions. As these artifacts are iteratively updated throughout...
