The paper introduces Harness Primitives—reusable agent harness mechanisms mined from failed task trajectories—and a framework called STITCH that selects and composes these primitives into task‑specific harnesses at test time. This approach avoids generating or debugging harness code for each task, achieving up to 12‑point gains in task success over fixed harness baselines and outperforming human‑designed harnesses like Codex CLI. STITCH also demonstrates minimal test‑time overhead (2.7%) and scales efficiently with the size of the primitive library.
CHAI for LLMs is a framework that improves large language models’ performance on code‑mixed translation tasks by using LLMs as annotators to create preference data, applying reinforcement learning from AI feedback, incorporating LLM‑generated domain knowledge for iterative refinement, and evaluating on real‑world datasets. The approach yields a 68.45% average win rate over state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in human‑adjudicated tests. It demonstrates a scalable method to enhance code‑mixed language understanding in open‑source LLMs.

The paper introduces the Harmful Memorization Index (HMI) to measure when large language models (LLMs) fail to adapt to small semantic changes in coding tasks, producing code that is superficially similar to the original solution. It proposes an automated code‑rewriting pipeline that generates semantically different variants of tasks by altering core logic elements, and uses HMI to combine similarity metrics with performance degradation. Experiments on MBPP+ and BigCodeBench show that HMI does not simply grow with model size, is higher for certain logic‑edit types, and that supervised fine‑tuning can increase HMI while PPO offers a better accuracy–HMI trade‑off.
