RAGAL: A Frugal, Fully Local Retrieval-Augmented Assistant for Technical Support at a Government Agency

Public institutions hold large volumes of sensitive documents and support tickets that cannot leave the premises, ruling out cloud-hosted language models entirely. We report on RAGAL, a retrieval-augmented assistant for the technical-support team of AFIR, the Romanian Agency for Financing Rural Investments, built and operated under three hard constraints: zero data egress (no external API calls, even for synthetic data), a read-only mandate (the assistant drafts, humans execute), and a single 8 GB consumer laptop as the only development and training machine.

TraceSynth: Generating Production-Quality Kernel Traces with Constraint-Guided Diffusion Models

arXiv:2607. 12104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning models for system diagnostics rely on kernel execution traces to capture fine-grained system behavior, but collecting production traces in industrial systems is costly due to runtime overhead, storage demands, and privacy constraints.

GRID: Grammar-Railed Decoding for Enterprise SQL Generation

arXiv:2607. 11951v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can write SQL, but enterprise deployment demands more than plausible text: outputs must be syntactically valid, must respect per-role and per-schema policy, must carry provable (not best-effort) guarantees, must not slow down as generations grow, and must leave a compliance-grade record of every decision.

ReflectWorld-MM: An Entity-Oriented Multimodal Memory System for Open-Ended Video Streams

arXiv:2607. 09759v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Building assistants that can continually watch the world, remember what they see, and reason over their accumulated experience is a long-standing goal, and recently multimodal agents equipped with long-term memory over video streams have attracted increasing interest.

Finding the Right Tables and Columns: A Benchmark and Corpus-Adaptive Embeddings for SQL Schema Retrieval

Retrieval in the SQL setting has largely been studied as the task of finding, within a large collection of SQL statements, the statement that answers a natural-language question. At scale, however, a more fundamental retrieval problem precedes generation: schema retrieval, identifying the tables and columns a question requires in a database that may contain thousands of them, far more than fit in a model's context.
