Key points

  • SciMARS is a recursive self-improvement framework where separate editors independently revise role procedures and coordination contracts of a multi-agent team.
  • A shared evidence graph records observations, findings, plans, and unresolved questions with provenance and routes them across roles.
  • SciMARS + Memory adds a third editor for how agents record, retrieve, and receive evidence.
  • On Autonomous Science Bench with GPT-6-Astra, it resolved 12/18 attempts, ahead of 8/18 for the base team.
  • It solves 14/38 ScienceAgentBench tasks and 11/20 AppWorld tasks, compared with 11/38 and 5/20 for the base team.
  • In the GLM-5.3 cohort, it resolved 2/18 attempts, slightly ahead of 1/18 for the base team.
