SafeEvolve is an experience-driven framework that co‑evolves a harness and policy to improve safety alignment for LLM‑based agents. It uses on‑policy trajectory safety evidence to update safety prompts and hierarchical skills, producing auditable harness artifacts. The policy is trained via a two‑stage SFT‑RL pipeline that bootstraps with the evolved harness and then refines behavior through verifier‑decomposed rewards, yielding a better safety‑utility tradeoff on benchmarks such as AgentDojo.
Agentic ESOpt proposes using evolution strategies (ES) instead of reinforcement learning to fine‑tune large language‑model agents for long‑horizon tasks. ES offers model scalability, flexibility, and better long‑horizon credit assignment, enabling full‑parameter optimization with minimal GPU memory. The framework samples parameter perturbations, evaluates agents with rewards, and updates online, achieving notable performance gains on WebArena‑Lite and in test‑time prompt‑parameter co‑evolution.

arXiv:2608. 01548v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language-first intelligence is constrained by which distinctions enter its symbolic record, which mappings its language--interpreter--environment complex can execute, and which possibilities can be realized with finite resources.
