CoMAP introduces a framework that jointly evolves textual world models and agent policies through a closed‑loop interaction. At each decision step the world model forecasts future state feedback for candidate actions, while the agent reflects on the reliability of this feedback to refine its action. The resulting on‑policy trajectories are used to self‑distill and update the world model, improving prediction accuracy and long‑horizon decision‑making across embodied planning, web navigation, and tool‑use benchmarks.

FREEEVOLVE automates the optimization loop used by agent evolvers, allowing the system to decide what to test, how much evidence to gather, which candidates to pursue, and when to stop, all within specified resource limits. By treating these decisions as an editable evolution skill and improving them through meta‑evolution, the method learns a capability that replaces hand‑crafted search loops. Experiments on several benchmarks show that FREEEVOLVE improves primary metrics by an average of 13.6 points and that meta‑evolved skills add further gains, indicating transferability across environments.
