Large language model agents can adapt to complex tasks by constructing workflows at inference time, but procedures discovered in one episode are usually discarded after execution. Existing skill libraries provide reusable executable routines, but are typically assembled offline and do not grow from the agent's own workflows. We introduce FlowEvo, a training-free framework in which workflows and skills co-evolve at inference time. FlowEvo compiles successful workflows into callable skills, stores

ToMoE : Converting Dense Large Language Models to Mixture-of-Experts through Dynamic Structural Pruning Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable abilities in tackling a wide range of complex tasks. However, their huge computational and memory costs raise significant challenges in deploying these models on resource-constrained devices or efficiently serving them. Prior approaches have attempted to alleviate these problems by permanently removing less important model structures, y

Qwen3.8-27B is amazing, but it’s slow. A stronger 35B-A3B Mixture of Experts-coder that can run and solve real codebase issues fast (even on constrained hardware) is a valuable addition to the arsenal. This one is the strongest and most consistent 35B-A3B I’ve benchmarked, on both correctness and speed, in addition to being the fastest to fix out of all the 35B-A3B models when you throw them at real codebases. On top of Ornith-1.5’s fine tune, TielCoder uses a code-weighted imatrix for dynamic q

Parallel reasoning improves the accuracy and robustness of large reasoning models by exploring multiple solution paths, but its computational cost grows with reasoning depth and branch count. Existing methods for managing these parallel paths typically rely on final-answer consensus, local token confidence, or isolated intermediate probes. However, these signals are often delayed, weakly tied to actual reasoning progress, or too noisy for dynamic, branch-level control. To address these limitatio

arXiv:2608.20342v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) coding agents start each session with an empty context window, discarding accumulated knowledge from prior work. We present PrimeAgentOrchestrator (PAO), a system that spawns new instances of Claude Code -- Anthropic's terminal-based coding agent -- pre-loaded with relevant memories compiled from the user's existing personal databases. At spawn time, PAO queries two independently-operated memory backends in parallel (a Po

arXiv:2608.20397v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic large language models (LLMs) on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) re-encode verbose tool schemas every turn, so prefill - quadratic in sequence length - dominates time-to-first-token (TTFT) as the tool registry grows. Nexus's primary lever is to decouple routing from the schema-prefill cost: an INT8 semantic lookaside buffer (SLB) with a calibrated cross-encoder margin gate selects tools by retrieval, and arguments are generated over a compr

arXiv:2608.20400v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic memory under a fixed budget involves two stages: retention and retrieval. Existing retrieval-centered paradigms implicitly assume necessary evidence survives eviction, but we challenge this by isolating a pre-retrieval failure mode: structurally indirect prerequisite eviction, in which upstream blocks weakly aligned with the query are discarded under budget pressure. We provide an operational definition of this failure, a reproducible deter

arXiv:2608.20379v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Advances in large language models (LLMs) have fueled a wave of research into agency: the ability to reason, plan, and act. This effort has produced agentic frameworks that orchestrate perception, memory, and decision-making around powerful LLM backbones. With the advent of large multimodal models (LMMs), these systems can process and integrate diverse modalities, including images, audio, and video, thereby improving their real-world applicability.

Hybrid-thinking multimodal large language models (MLLMs) allow a single model to alternate between deliberative thinking and latency-efficient non-thinking inference. Although these modes differ in reasoning budget, their delivered responses should satisfy the same user-facing standard. Correctness alone may not characterize this response quality; we therefore evaluate task accuracy and response-pattern failures as complementary outcomes. We study this gap through response-pattern alignment: whe

Should you replace your text-embedding pipeline with a large language model? We answer this with a controlled, cost-aware comparison of ten LLMs across six families and 26 embedding models (118M to 14B parameters) on 37 tasks spanning classification, semantic textual similarity (STS), clustering, pair classification, and retrieval. In aggregate the two paradigms are effectively tied: the best LLM (Gemini 3.1 Pro, 77.6) and the best embedding model (77.2) differ by 0.4 points. Their strengths dif

Modern LLM agents are often improved by modifying prompts, tools, or workflows manually, while the executable scaffold surrounding the model---the harness---is typically treated as a fixed artifact after deployment. This work studies an alternative where the harness is task-specific and continuously evolvable: each task family maintains its own harness, which is hot-swapped across iterations through a fixed task-injection seam and rewritten using environment feedback. We introduce Hierarchical S

Recent omni-modal large language models (Omni-LLMs) show great potential as real-time video assistants, which continuously perceive environments and guide users to achieve specific goals.

Evaluating this is rather challenging, as the model's unpredictable response dynamically changes the user's subsequent actions, which static of

We treat this in-context selection as the small-N counterpart to embedding-based skill retrieval at scale, and present a case study of how

arXiv:2608.20378v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safety alignment in Large Language Models (LLMs) is often superficial, relying on refusal mechanisms that trigger only at the final stages of generation without erasing the foundational knowledge of harmful concepts acquired during pretraining. This study demonstrates that this architectural disconnect leaves models vulnerable to Semantic Camouflage -- adversarial attacks that wrap harmful intent in benign narrative contexts (e.g., creative writing

On-policy distillation (OPD) transfers teacher capabilities by supervising trajectories sampled from the student's own policy, yet its generalization behavior remains poorly understood, as most studies evaluate OPD on a single domain and on benchmarks close to the training data.

We find that OPD transfers a teacher's reasoning b

Real-world image search queries are multimodal and compositional: ``find this shirt in pink'' specifies an entity to retain, an attribute to modify, and context to ignore.

Drawing on rubric- and checklist-based evaluation from NLP, we recast multimodal image re-ranking as a semantic constraint satisfaction p

Open-weight language models are fine-tuned, quantized, pruned, and merged, yet their provenance is often undocumented. We study data-free white-box lineage verification: can weights alone reveal whether two compatible model checkpoints share ancestry? Residual training produces a shared identity-aligned component in branch products, so this structure alone cannot establish ancestry. We remove it and compare checkpoint-specific structure across residual blocks, yielding a symmetric lineage score

Looped language models have shown promising results on reasoning benchmarks, yet their potential for agentic tool use remains largely unexplored.

arXiv:2608.17007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent Skills can specify procedural and resource obligations for tool use, and language models instantiate them as concrete programs. However, when models turn this guidance into code for existing tool interfaces, even a semantically correct program may load an entire input and exceed the memory available to one tool call. We present SkillEffect, a checked-lowering runtime for computations with a recoverable source relation, an audited bounded impl

Modern agents operate inside agent harnesses that manage tools, context, and control flow, making the harness a critical part of the agent system. Our original Agent Lightning introduced a disaggregated architecture that connects arbitrary agents to RL training through an LLM endpoint proxy, an approach later adopted by frameworks such as verl Uni-Agent, AReaL 2.0, slime, and Polar. We refer to this paradigm as harnessed agentic RL, where the deploy-time harness directly participates in model po

Memory is becoming core infrastructure for long-horizon LLM agents, yet existing evaluations offer limited guidance on which memory substrate, namely the underlying medium in which memory is represented and stored, should be used under different operating regimes.

A competition is developing between OpenAI and Anthropic over who can provide the best privacy protections for enterprise customer data.

Anthropic announced last week it would include invisible watermarks in AI-generated content to comply with new EU rules. Within hours, overrides were being touted online.

The idea behind OpenAI's Trusted Access for Cyber program is to give trusted defenders better models so they can report bugs and vulnerabilities to companies, with the aim of getting flaws patched faster.

This goes way, way further than keeping an eye on license plates.

arXiv:2608.16956v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: API buyers purchase a dated contract, not a model name alone: the contract includes the requested and served model, reasoning-effort term or its omission, output rail, service product, prompt, and price schedule. We study the reasoning-effort term through a registered paired contrast of Sonnet 5 with explicit high effort against the same model with effort omitted, using 30 AIME 2026 items and five calls per item.

arXiv:2608.16890v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Clinical trial programming -- transforming study protocols into analysis-ready datasets under CDISC standards -- is a bottleneck in regulatory submissions, yet LLM-based code generation fails catastrophically on this task: across 11 single-shot attempts with five frontier models, none produces a valid subject-level analysis dataset. We introduce GxP-Agent, a multi-agent system that encodes regulatory process ordering as a directed acyclic graph (DA

arXiv:2608.17202v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safety alignment in open-weight language models is trivially removable: abliteration projects a refusal-mediating direction out of the weights in minutes, and no release-time defense we are aware of prevents it durably. What cannot be prevented can be deceived. Our defense, decoy hardening ("Fool's Gold"), concedes the refusal strip and poisons its payoff: once refusal is stripped, most answers to hazardous operational requests are confident, fluen

Four Tesla V100s from 2017 matched my RTX 5090 on single-request Qwen 3.8 decode. Repo: The 5090 was not being held back. It ran NInfer , a specialist engine built to make this exact model as fast as possible on that GPU. (love this guys work) The V100s ran Qwen3.8's published mixed FP4/FP8 weights unchanged. This should be impossible . NVFP4 was built for Blackwell. The RTX 5090 has native silicon for FP4 and FP8; V100 has none of these advantages. And yet via software I wrote a translator fast

I have been using local models on/off for like 2 years or so but never really used them extensively because the closed ones were always much better. Once Qwen 3.8 27B was released I decided to give it another serious try. I configured Cline and ZooCode as VSCode addons, installed a few MCP servers and added one skill. When I used these tools with Deepseek V4 Flash - they do the job quite well (mostly Home Assistant configuration editing etc.) but it is still way worse than Claude Code/GitHub cop

Byte-level hierarchical language models (LMs) have recently emerged as a robust alternative to their popular counterparts that use subword tokenization. However, generating one byte at a time remains a bottleneck for inference speed. To address this, we introduce multi-byte prediction (MBP), which generates multiple bytes in parallel, speeding up inference with minimal performance impact and no additional parameters. MBP builds on the popular multi-token prediction (MTP) paradigm with two crucia

Self-evolving agents improve future behavior from interaction experience, yet existing evaluations typically optimize under fixed execution conditions and do not test recovery after those conditions change. To address this gap, we introduce PACE-Bench (Physics Adaptation via Code Evolution), a simulator-grounded benchmark of 144 source-to-target adaptation pairs across six physics domains. Each pair links a source environment to a mutated target environment with the same goal and interface. A co

Pixel-space generative models bypass lossy latent compression, yet necessitate joint learning of global structure and fine-grained details in a high-dimensional space. Standard flow matching interpolates noise toward a fixed clean-image endpoint, leaving the spectral evolution to be learned implicitly. In this paper, we introduce Energy-Guided Flow Matching(EG-FM) that explicitly models a coarse-to-fine generative trajectory by moving endpoint. Specifically, EG-FM replaces the fixed endpoint wit

Intermediate tokens, called "thinking" or "reasoning" actually are nothing like it. Humans do step-by-step reasoning leading to the conclusion. LLMs use intermediate traces to augment their prompt . This explains why sometimes the answer is very good but the "reasoning" is verbose. Flooding your context window or fighting compaction are different issues. edit: I love this section from the main research they linked. Our findings consistently challenge the prevailing narrative that intermediate to

Artificial superintelligence (ASI) requires AI to move beyond mastering existing knowledge toward exploring the unknown, creating new knowledge, and turning new ideas into verifiable results. However, the capabilities of today's AI systems are still largely built on learning, compressing, and applying existing human knowledge. Accordingly, existing benchmarks primarily test whether AI can produce correct answers based on learned knowledge, or whether it can complete tasks under extensive human g

Although Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have significantly advanced embodied navigation, their direct deployment remains challenging, as existing methods often force VLMs into unnatural action spaces that misalign with their 2D pre-training priors, compounded by rigid reasoning schedules and inefficient memory management. To overcome these limitations, we propose TAMP-Nav, a unified framework for efficient embodied navigation. First, we introduce a Pixel-to-3D Action Formulation (Point) tha

arXiv:2608.17124v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Combining the answers a large language model (LLM) samples for a question into one decision is a test-time information fusion problem, usually solved by majority voting. Voting is unreliable on difficult questions, where the sampled answers share correlated errors, so the wrong answer can win and drawing more samples makes the decision worse. Selecting a candidate by reading a correctness signal from the model's hidden states is a promising alterna

arXiv:2608.17183v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Small Language Models (SLMs) are increasingly deployed in resource-constrained, privacy-sensitive settings, where safety and bias failures can cause security and societal risks. However, existing AI safety\slash security\slash compliance benchmarks are designed for large language models that may not transfer reliably to SLMs. We therefore ask: Can these benchmarks effectively and reliably evaluate SLMs? To answer this question, we conduct a large-s

arXiv:2608.17067v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As text-to-image generative models advance, they raise critical safety concerns, particularly the generation of Not-Safe-For-Work (NSFW) content such as violence and nudity, further exacerbated by red-teaming adversarial attacks. Existing defenses predominantly operate under white-box assumptions, relying on text encoder optimization, weight editing, or inference-time intervention, and fundamentally cannot scale to proprietary models. Black-box alt

Frontier large language models (LLMs) safety evaluation has largely treated harmful generation as an attack outcome rather than as an object of analysis. Consequently, little is known about the harmful outputs produced during model misbehavior, partly because large-scale, high-quality collections of frontier-LLM misbehavior are difficult to obtain. To address this gap, we introduce HarmProfile, a content-centric benchmark dataset that collects model misbehavior across diverse harm categories and

None has undergone post-training, giving researchers flexible starting points for continued pre-training, fine-tuning, and further research. Two key highlights: - They use WSM to replace LR decay with weighted checkpoint merging, making the training process better suited for continual pre-training while enabling offline exploration of different LR decay strategies. - With one shared training recipe, the community can validate strategies on tiny-base, then scale them to flash-base. #1- Ling-3.0-t

The quality and diversity of instruction-based video editing datasets are steadily improving, yet existing datasets mainly focus on single editing operations and fall short in supporting compositional instruction-guided video editing. In particular, multiple editing intents must be jointly understood and faithfully executed within the same video. To address this issue, we introduce CoinVE-200K, a large-scale, high-quality dataset for Compositional Instruction-Guided Video Editing. CoinVE-200K co

Vision encoders are a critical component of vision-language models, and scaling their capacity effectively improves performance. However, dense scaling increases compute cost and inference latency. Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures offer a compelling alternative, having enabled efficient scaling in LLMs, yet the MoE design space for CLIP-style vision encoders remains underexplored at State-of-the-Art (SOTA) levels. In this work, we systematically study MoE designs for vision encoder scaling

Large-scale image generation has benefited from advances in data scale, quality, rebalancing, and recaptioning, yet conventional pipelines typically optimize task-specific datasets in isolation. A central challenge is not only how to curate each task-specific corpus, but also how to organize heterogeneous supervision according to the dependencies among generative capabilities. We present a capability-driven data infrastructure that couples capability-specific supervision construction with capabi

arXiv:2608.16977v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI systems are increasingly capable of contributing to mathematical research. In research practice, frontier-model reasoning is a limited resource, and expert mathematical review is even more sharply constrained. Allocating these scarce resources well is therefore central to making AI-assisted mathematical discovery efficient. In most current AI-for-math workflows, human effort is concentrated at the beginning and end, in selecting suitable researc

High-resolution image editing is increasingly demanded in professional workflows, yet existing diffusion-based models remain constrained to resolutions below 1K due to quadratic attention complexity and prohibitive memory requirements. A prevalent workaround employs a two-stage pipeline: editing at low resolution followed by independent super-resolution. However, this approach suffers from two critical issues: information divergence, where hallucinated details contradict the original high-resolu

arXiv:2608.17150v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To effectively collaborate with users on knowledge-intensive tasks, Large Language Models (LLMs) must perform information calibration: matching content to a user's evolving understanding and cognitive capacity. Yet user simulators used to evaluate and train LLMs do not explicitly model user knowledge so they neither produce realistic interactions across knowledge levels nor reflect how interactions unfold as that knowledge evolves.

Instruction-based general video editing seeks to unify diverse editing operations within a single, intuitive interface. Existing approaches often rely on resource-intensive conditioning, using either heavyweight branches or costly source concatenation. Is there any efficient way to model editing intent? Thus, we introduce GRNEdit, a lightweight two-stage framework. GRN inspires our approach by encoding visual semantics through combinations of bits. Through task-specific fine-tuning, we take this

Long-horizon agents can fail even when their underlying models can solve the constituent steps. They may lose track of mutable state, fail to reactivate lessons from earlier executions, skip known procedures, or stop prematurely.

We introduce StateM, an agent-native runtime that organizes execution around durable states, phase-local context, checked transitions, recoverable runbooks, and
