Earlier sources: AI agents
AI agents use models to choose actions, call tools, and work toward a goal. This thread follows agent frameworks, memory, orchestration, evaluation, and safeguards; autonomy and reliability vary between systems.
SYMTRI organizes observations from public sources into a living map. Connections reflect shared subject matter; they do not establish causation or endorse a source.
Open in the map ↗856 classified signals in the fourteen-day window. These counts include signals awaiting readable evidence.
Earlier sources
Up to ten sources with readable evidence, ordered by their feed timestamp. These archive sources can be older than the live fourteen-day window. This list is a sample, not a measure of total activity. Dates distinguish paper publication, repository creation, model/dataset activity, Hacker News posts, and KEV catalog additions. “First archived” records when SYMTRI first stored the signal.

AssemblyWorld: Rethinking 3D Assembly with General-Purpose Agents ↗
The task of 3D assembly requires translating an understanding of parts and their relationships into precise spatial arrangements. Can pretrained general-purpose agents assemble objects through visual interaction without additional assembly-specific fine-tuning? To investigate this question, we introduce AssemblyWorld, an interactive 3D environment in which agents inspect rendered views and manipulate supplied rigid parts, guided by images or assembly manuals when available. Agents perceive part geometry through 2D views rather than direct access to mesh vertices or faces, while their resulting…

Cogentic: Multi-Agent Orchestration for Automated Proof Discovery ↗
We present Cogentic, a multi-agent harness for automated proof discovery on open research problems. While frontier language models can generate strong mathematical ideas in a single shot, single-shot generation is often insufficient for open problems that require exploring multiple competing conjectures, overcoming subtle technical obstructions, and retaining intermediate progress over a long horizon. Cogentic addresses these challenges through an iterative prove--verify loop in which an orchestrator allocates a population of independent provers across distinct proof directions, subjects their…

DynaHarness: A Dynamic Physical Harness for Self-Evolving Robot Agents ↗
Pretrained robot policies provide useful action priors, but long-horizon manipulation still requires coordination between semantic reasoning and physical execution. Semantic reasoning operates at a coarser timescale than physical interaction, while episode-level failures provide limited guidance on which system component should be revised. We propose DynaHarness, a dynamic physical harness that couples semantic reasoning with physical governance through a shared execution contract and turns failure evidence into validated capability revisions. To be more specific, the slow brain proposes capab…

How Much of a Harness Does a Strong Agent Need for Autonomous ML Engineering? ↗
Recent autonomous machine learning engineering (MLE) agents have made significant progress on public leaderboards. Often motivated by progress stagnation over long-horizon cycles and limited Large Language Model (LLM) primitives, modern MLE agents are deployed on top of increasingly elaborate machinery: multi-agent orchestrators, dedicated retrieval subagents, and more. While such harnesses expand, the use of more primitive but improved coding agents - where LLMs have direct access to the execution environment through read, write, and bash primitives - has received little attention in the fiel…

PivotOPD: Learning to Recover from Pivotal Mistakes in Multi-Turn Agents ↗
On-policy distillation (OPD) is a promising approach for training language agents, providing dense teacher supervision on student-generated trajectories. However, in multi-turn interaction, an incorrect action changes the states the student encounters later, so errors compound across turns. In preliminary experiments across three Qwen3 models (8B to 235B), we find that more than half of the failed rollouts contain a pivotal mistake, an action that moves the agent farther from completing the task, and this mistake typically occurs early. These pivotal mistakes often remain recoverable: guiding…

cua-speedrun: Standardized Benchmarking of the Speed of Computer-Use Agents ↗
Computer use agents (CUAs), which use graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to complete tasks on a computer, have recently surpassed human performance on many standard benchmarks, including difficult long-horizon tasks. Their capabilities are undoubtedly impressive, however, a key barrier to the widespread adoption and deployment of CUAs remains their speed and cost. Progress towards faster yet capable CUAs requires reliable evaluation of their speed, but many CUA benchmarks currently face a reproducibility crisis. Benchmarks are based on complex infrastructure with varying machine and container co…

Belief-Aware Multi-Agent Path Finding under Map Uncertainty ↗
Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) aims to find collision-free paths for multiple agents in a shared environment. Classical MAPF assumes that all static obstacles are known in advance, but real-world environments can change unexpectedly due to fallen objects, spills, or other local disturbances. When such changes are spatially correlated, an observation can inform traversability estimates beyond the observed location. Prior approaches address uncertainty in traversability through contingent plans or replanning based on direct observations, but do not leverage this spatial dependence to infer the…

How to assess evidence about AI agents
Check each original source for its methods, release status, limitations, and supporting data. A repository announcement, a preprint, and a published study provide different kinds of evidence. SYMTRI’s subject classification helps discovery; it does not independently validate the source’s claims.
