AI-PROPELLER: Warehouse-Scale Interprocedural Code Layout Optimization with AlphaEvolve

arXiv:2606. 00131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-link optimizers (PLOs) such as Propeller and BOLT have demonstrated that precise, profile-guided code layout can extract significant performance gains from heavily optimized binaries.

Comprehensive AI governance requires addressing non-model gains

arXiv:2606. 00047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Frontier AI governance often centres on the model-level governance paradigm, which assumes that a model's capability profile is primarily a function of the compute and data used during training.

Coordination Graphs for Constrained Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 02337v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Constrained Multi-agent reinforcement learning (CMARL) faces two intertwined challenges: the joint action space grows exponentially with the number of agents, and additional requirements couple agents in ways that reward structure alone does not capture.

MCP-Persona: Benchmarking LLM Agents on Real-World Personal Applications via Environment Simulation

arXiv:2606. 02470v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has emerged as a transformative standard for connecting large language models (LLMs) with external data sources and tools, and has been rapidly adopted across personal applications and development platforms.

Harness-1: Reinforcement Learning for Search Agents with State-Externalizing Harnesses

arXiv:2606. 02373v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Search agents are often trained as policies over growing transcripts: the model must decide how to search while also remembering what it has seen, which evidence is useful, which constraints remain open, and which claims have actually been checked.
