Darwin-Claw: Environment-Adaptive Experience Consolidation for Recursively Self-Evolving Agents
Darwin‑Claw is a new framework for large language model agents that enables environment‑adaptive, self‑evolving behavior. It systematically distills episodic experiences into prototype vectors through a hierarchical experience consolidation system, providing context‑sensitive perception patches and explicit optimization signals for skill refinement. The method is deployable with mainstream agent systems and, according to experiments on WildClawBench, delivers significant performance gains while maintaining controllability and stability.

Learning from Research: Toward Lifelong Agent Harness Evolution
The paper introduces ScholarEvolve, a framework that evolves the software harness of language agents by automatically incorporating insights from recent research papers. It organizes harness improvements into functional modules, uses topic modeling to identify distinct strategies, and evaluates combinations to boost task performance. Experiments show significant gains on AppWorld and Tau2-Bench, raising Qwen3.5-27B completion rates from 49.6% to 63.6% and GPT-5.4-mini pass@1 from 72.7% to 81.9%.

Self-Evolving Harness on Multiple Tasks with the Agent as Its Own Optimizer
The paper introduces a self‑evolving harness framework where a frozen language‑model agent first solves tasks and then edits its own harness based on run records. Using a 49‑line seed harness, the evolved harness improves average scores on in‑distribution benchmarks by 4.48 points and on out‑of‑distribution benchmarks by 12.64 points, surpassing Codex on the former and matching it on the latter. Continued evolution on a specific out‑of‑distribution benchmark further raises performance, and the study analyzes emergent mechanisms such as output truncation and history compaction.
