As coding agents move from supervised code completion to unattended, around-the-clock exploration, their work expands from isolated predictions into long trajectories of reasoning, tool use, and feedback. Token efficiency therefore becomes important for scaling recursive self-improvement. We take an RSI-inspired approach at the harness layer, scaling auto-research loops across increasingly numerous and diverse environments for harness rollouts. At this scale, the process yields reusable improvements that transfer beyond their development setting, moving automated harness discovery toward production-level outcomes. Four mechanisms survive selection and form SoL-Pi, spanning action execution, context compaction, observation handling, and delegated reading. On the 51-task EdgeBench evaluation, SoL-Pi achieves performance comparable to Pi across GPT-5.6 Sol and Opus 5 while reducing recorded token traffic by 44.7-49.0% and API cost by about one third. In other words, estimated hourly savings are \8.75-13.50 relative to native Codex and Claude Code harnesses, and \4.36-5.71 relative to Pi.

Document parsing converts document images into structured content and requires reliable performance across diverse layouts and acquisition conditions. Yet training corpora are biased toward common document types and clean digital pages, while expanding coverage alone does not specify how to address a parser's remaining weaknesses. We present WeVisDoc, a two-stage data-centric framework for robust end-to-end document parsing. Stage I broadens semantic, structural, and appearance coverage through heterogeneous data and structure-preserving degradation synthesis. Stage II uses a held-out probe to measure the Stage I parser's residual errors within fixed visual-structural clusters. These diagnostics guide targeted data construction and reallocation of the target-token budget. WeVisDoc-4B achieves an Overall score of 95.38 on OmniDocBench v1.6 and a mean Overall score of 75.54 across the three PureDocBench tracks, ranking first among the compared end-to-end parsers in all four settings. Compared with Stage I, Stage II improves Overall scores for the 2B and 4B models on both benchmarks, with larger gains on the degraded PureDocBench tracks, including a 4.03-point gain for the 4B model on the Real Degraded track.

ZGCM-1 is a 7B open foundation model that combines internal reasoning with external tool use, trained via efficient architecture-system co-design, progressive long-context scaling, and autonomous agent workflows to achieve strong reasoning and efficiency.

Data agents aim to fulfill natural-language instructions over heterogeneous data, including tables, files, and databases. However, data agents face a challenging agent-data gap: heterogeneous data resides outside the agent, while the agent can access it (e.g., column names and file paths) only through generic tools. Existing approaches either let agents directly explore raw data sources or inject manually constructed semantic layers into prompts. However, neither scales well to large heterogeneous data sources nor adapts to different agent behaviors. In this paper, we introduce EvoOntology, a self-evolving ontology layer for data agents. EvoOntology encapsulates the ontology as an MCP server comprising a schema layer, a content layer, and a tool layer, enabling agents to actively query and interact with the ontology at runtime. To this end, we introduce a builder agent for autonomous ontology construction and a self-evolution loop that continuously refines the ontology through attribution-guided typed edits that are accepted only after a backbone-conditional paired evaluation. Experiments on three well-adopted data-agent benchmarks with four LLM backbones demonstrate that EvoOntology consistently outperforms strong baselines and existing semantic-layer approaches, effectively bridging the agent-data gap and enabling more effective interaction with heterogeneous data.

Language-conditioned manipulation requires both precise contact-rich control and robust reasoning over language, scenes, and long horizons. End-to-end Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide strong local visuomotor skills, but they are trained on in-distribution task trajectories and often fail under deployment perturbations such as semantic retargeting, goal re-binding, spatial-layout shifts, and unstable local contacts. LLM coding agents provide complementary semantic and compositional reasoning, but purely analytic primitives struggle with irregular grasping, constrained placement, and articulated-object interaction. We present Harness VLA, a memory-augmented agentic framework that exposes a frozen VLA as a retryable contact-rich primitive and composes it with a small fixed library of analytic primitives for grounding, staging, transport, navigation, and release. Rather than expanding the skill library, the harness learns the operating range of these fixed primitives from task-specific execution traces, global success rules, and failure models. By lifting semantic re-grounding, non-contact execution, and VLA re-staging to the planner while reserving the frozen VLA for local contact-rich phases, Harness VLA extends pretrained VLAs beyond their original trajectory distribution without finetuning. Across perturbed tabletop, household kitchen, and clean-to-randomized bimanual manipulation, Harness VLA improves over the strongest relevant baselines by 38.6 and 25.4 percentage points on LIBERO-Pro and RoboCasa365, respectively, and reaches 58.4% on RoboTwin C2R.

Computer-use agents (CUAs) have advanced along two separate lines: graphical interaction and software development through code and the command line. Real digital work requires both, interleaved rather than stacked end to end. We study hybrid CUAs that autonomously decide when to explore an interface, implement software, and run and visually verify their artifacts. We introduce RecreationWorld, a five-platform framework built around recreation: given a running reference, an agent must discover its behavior and build a faithful implementation with no prescribed workflow. RecreationWorld provides reproducible environments on Ubuntu, macOS, Windows, Android, and Web, plus a unified harness with native GUI control and coding tools. The running reference serves as an oracle for hidden behavioral tests, providing execution-grounded rewards. We scale trajectory generation with high-quality open-source applications. Models trained on these trajectories improve across five out-of-distribution coding and hybrid computer-use benchmarks and more frequently verify their rendered outputs, providing evidence of transfer beyond recreation. For held-out evaluation, we introduce RecreationBench, comprising 250 diverse tasks across domains and platforms. Reference-grounded programmatic and visual assertions cover action-conditioned outcomes at multiple interaction depths; each is validated on the reference and by human reviewers before the suite is frozen for automatic scoring. GPT-6 Astra leads at 58.1% overall, but passes all programmatic tests on just 2.8% of tasks. Agents reproduce static interface structure more reliably than interactions and computed outputs, while generated applications remain smaller and more monolithic than their references. We release the benchmark, environments, and test suites.

Foundation models, alongside advances in learned game-world models, are reshaping AI across the game lifecycle. Beyond playing games, recent systems model players and game dynamics, support design and development, adapt player-facing experiences at runtime, and evaluate resulting artifacts. Yet these directions have evolved largely separately, obscuring which capabilities transfer across settings and which remain tied to particular games, engines, interfaces, or player populations. We organize the literature into six roles according to the immediate use of AI output: playing and acting; modeling players and games; designing games; building and maintaining games; generating and adapting at runtime; and testing and evaluating games. For each role, we examine what structure is supplied by the game or workflow, what AI learns or produces, which capabilities and artifacts transfer across settings and roles, and what evidence supports the claims. We identify cross-role connections: trajectories train world models, learned environments provide experience for agents, design specifications drive executable implementations, and play or testing feedback guides revision. However, control schemes, rules, engine interfaces, state representations, and player contexts often remain setting-specific, so downstream claims require validation in the target setting. Evaluation is most standardized for bounded game playing and selected learned environments, while persistent state in learned worlds, repeated software revision, validated player modeling, sustained runtime adaptation, and representative automated testing remain less established. The central challenge is to reuse or transfer outputs and capabilities across roles while re-establishing evidence for effectiveness in the game-specific contexts where they are used.

Mixture-of-experts (MoE) inference on consumer hardware is bounded by weight memory: a 35B-class model is 19.5GB at 4-bit, and sparsity shrinks the compute per token, not the bytes that must be held. Naive offloading to SSD does not help on its own, because layer N+1's experts must be chosen before layer N's output exists, so the reads cannot start early enough to hide behind compute. We present Edge0, a streaming MoE inference engine that closes the gap with a prerouter: a per-layer head predicts the next layer's routing one token ahead, and the prediction is consumed as the routing itself, so the staged expert set equals the routed set and nothing is dropped. An unmerged recovery LoRA, trained on the student path, pays back the quality lost to int4 quantization and routing replacement. On a single 24GB machine, Edge0 serves a 35B MoE at 20tok/s inside 3GiB of peak active memory, within a few points of its fp16 teacher on average across five public benchmarks. An 8B tier runs on the same framework, and the framework, checkpoints, and adapters are open source.

We define OmniVChat (Omni Video Chat) as the task of native audio-visual dialogue between a user and an omni model. In OmniVChat, omni models directly and simultaneously receive audio and video from a user and return text. The user's query is embedded in the audio and video, without a separate text question, external captioning, or speech recognition. Direct audio-visual input reduces external latency and computation while preserving perceptual cues. However, research on OmniVChat faces two constraints: data availability and evaluation. Recordings of people using their own devices are scarce. Furthermore, a good reply often needs to account for the user's surroundings, facial expressions, and nearby objects, and such responses can be expressed in many different ways, making keyword matching unreliable for evaluating reply quality. Recent progress in agent systems and video generation makes generation for comprehension viable, which means using synthesized dialogues for training and evaluation. Therefore, we present OmniVChat-Studio, a multi-agent data engine for synthesizing single- and multi-turn audio-visual dialogues. We use synthesized dialogues to build OmniVChat-Bench, an evaluation benchmark that evaluates omni models' basic dialogue abilities across five ability categories. We also present OmniVChat-RL, a reinforcement learning reward design that jointly targets reply correctness, efficiency, and style in OmniVChat. Training Qwen3-Omni-Instruct with OmniVChat-RL on synthesized dialogues improves its performance on both OmniVChat-Bench and the human-recorded OmniVChat-Bench-Human. These gains validate the reward design and show transfer to real-world dialogues in training and evaluation.
