Co-Harness: Co-Evolving Harnesses and Model Weights for LLM Agents

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 22688v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training agents for automated AI research requires optimizing not only model parameters, but also the runtime harness that shapes how research trajectories are generated, evaluated, and learned from.

Adaptive Auto-Harness: Sustained Self-Improvement for Agentic System Deployment on Open-Ended Task Streams

arXiv:2606. 01770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Auto-harness systems such as A-Evolve, GEPA, and Meta-Harness improve LLM agents by optimizing prompts, skills, tools, memories, and supporting infrastructure from execution feedback, but they are typically evaluated on fixed offline benchmarks.

HarnessX: A Composable, Adaptive, and Evolvable Agent Harness Foundry

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.
