PLE: Physical-Engineering's Last Exam

Rujun Han, Yufan Zhuang, Arijit Ray +10

Frontier language models now score above 90% on popular knowledge benchmarks and are increasingly deployed as agents that carry out multi-hour professional work. Yet no existing be…

Harmony Harness: Multi-Objective Self-Evolution of Agent Harnesses

Weichen Yu, Lesly Miculicich, Bhavana Dalvi Mishra +5

Recent work on self-evolving LLM agents treats the agent harness as an optimization target that can be iteratively improved through execution feedback. Existing approaches, however…

Harness^2: Recursive Agent Harnessing for an Open World

Ruiyao Xu, Yanfei Chen, Zhongying CuiZhu +6

LLM agents' capabilities depend not only on their underlying models but also on their execution harnesses. Recursive self-improvement (RSI) offers a promising approach to automatic…

VEPA: Verified Evolving Formal Policy for Lifelong LLM Agent Guardrails

Duy Nguyen, Lesly Miculicich, Bhavana Dalvi Mishra +5

LLM agents increasingly operate over sensitive resources, such as private documents and mutable system states, which can create serious safety and security risks. Runtime guardrail…

ASPIRE: Agentic Safety & Prompt Injection Red-teaming Engine

Pengfei He, Deep Mitra, Vishesh Sharma +4

LLM agents retrieve untrusted content and act through tools, creating indirect prompt-injection risks that can cause unauthorized actions or persistent state changes. Existing auto…

VeriHarness: Scaling Agentic Verification for Long-Horizon Tasks

Caiqi Zhang, Rujun Han, Zifeng Wang +4

As LLM agents undertake increasingly complex, long-horizon tasks, verifying their outputs becomes increasingly challenging. We study how verification capability can be strengthened…

RRSI: Regularized Recursive Self-Improvement of Agent Harnesses

Peng Xia, Rujun Han, Zifeng Wang +11

An LLM agent's capability is largely magnified by its harness, namely the prompts, control flow, tooling, memory, and context management surrounding the frozen backbone model. Rece…

EnvHarness: Awakening Static Worlds for Agent Learning

Chengsong Huang, Zifeng Wang, Rujun Han +14

LLM agents learn by interacting with environments, yet these environments are hand-built and static: blind to an agent's weaknesses, and quickly left behind as it improves. While r…

FinanceHarness: Autonomous Financial Deep Research Framework

Yijia Xiao, Rujun Han, Yanfei Chen +8

Powered by advances in LLMs and autonomous agents, deep research has become one of the most widely adopted agentic products. However, most deep research systems write general-purpo…

SkillOS: Learning Skill Curation for Self-Evolving Agents

Siru Ouyang, Jun Yan, Yanfei Chen +13

LLM-based agents are increasingly deployed to handle streaming tasks, yet they often remain one-off problem solvers that fail to learn from past interactions. Reusable skills disti…
