Key points

  • The approach keeps model weights fixed and lets the agent evolve its harness (the software wrapping it) by learning from research papers.
  • Motivated by the passivity of execution-feedback-only methods, it proactively extracts improvement strategies from the research literature.
  • It builds a pipeline that uses topic modeling to find strategies in papers and experiments with their combinations to select the best.
  • Task goal completion improved from 49.6% to 63.6% on AppWorld and from 72.7% to 81.9% on Tau2-Bench Telecom.
