Agora: Git as Shared Memory for Collective AutoResearch

Agora is a system that uses Git as a shared memory for autonomous research agents, recording each claim as an immutable commit in an append‑only directed acyclic graph. In a 12‑day run, 13 language‑model workers independently explored a weight‑transfer problem, producing 1,703 contributions that improved a 119.6M‑parameter model’s performance from 3.39 to 1.899 bits per byte. The system’s design includes a diversity‑aware selection rule and an index that tracks the frontier, neglected branches, and verification status of each claim.

REVISE: Validity-Guided Recovery for Online Revisions in Agent Workflows

The paper introduces “Revise”, a runtime system that performs validity-guided, fine-grained recovery for online revisions in structured agent workflows. When a revision arrives, Revise intersects the change with recorded data and control dependencies, propagates the impact through the partially executed DAG, stops invalid work, preserves unaffected progress, and recomputes only the affected region. Experiments on real coding‑agent traces and LangGraph/LLMCompiler applications show that Revise matches a latest‑version oracle, reduces model calls by up to 56%, and improves service‑level objective goodput under load.
