Personalized Memory Rubrics: Learning What to Remember per User via Rubric-Guided Credit Assignment

Long-horizon personalized agents maintain an evolving memory by continuously deciding what to add, modify, or discard. However, learning an optimal update policy remains challenging. Conventional training relies solely on terminal question-answering accuracy, yielding a coarse feedback signal that treats all intermediate updates identically. Furthermore, update utility is inherently user-specific, as identical memory actions may yield opposite effects across different user personas. Existing methods fail to address this heterogeneity, relying on globally shared evaluation standards with at most a single scalar intermediate reward. To address these challenges, we propose Personalized Memory Rubrics (PMR), a framework that translates terminal feedback into fine-grained, per-step, and per-user credit assignment. PMR decomposes evaluation into a universal layer capturing cross-persona failure patterns and a per-user adaptive layer modeling individual traits as a specialized delta over the universal baseline. Through Rubric-Guided Credit Assignment, PMR redistributes credit at the token level, selectively amplifying validated decisions on successful trajectories while falling back to standard policy optimization on failed ones to avoid unreliable attribution. The rubric and memory policy co-evolve in a closed loop with anti-circularity guarantees. Crucially, PMR incurs zero inference overhead, operating without any rubric or external judge during deployment. Extensive experiments across four benchmarks demonstrate consistent gains over strong memory-augmented baselines.

Coding Agent Memory Post-Training II: Unlocking the Memory Potential of Pre-trained File Operations for Long-Horizon Tasks via On-Policy Distillation

Language-model agents increasingly tackle long-horizon tasks whose interaction histories exceed the model's active context. They must therefore decide what to write down and what to read back, and when to do either. Recent work has begun to use on-policy distillation (OPD) to make memory control part of the policy, relying on memory tools and compaction protocols that lie outside either model's pre-training. However, this weakens the distillation on both sides: the teacher cannot give useful guidance on an interface it has never used, and the student samples too few meaningful memory actions for that guidance to take effect. To study this problem, we introduce Coding Agent Memory Gym II (CAMG-II), a suite of long-horizon agentic-RL environments spanning Shop, Coding, AutoResearch, General, and Visual. Alongside each environment's native task interface, CAMG-II provides ordinary Bash access and an episode-persistent workspace, enabling the policy to create, revise, search, and reuse files as memory across context replacements. We also introduce Coding Agent Memory Post-Training II (CAMP-II), which trains a single policy jointly across all five environments with fully asynchronous OPD to learn this file-based memory behavior directly from a frozen teacher with a prior for file operations. On CAMG-II, CAMP-II obtains 2.97 times the gain of the strongest OPD baseline. The memory behavior CAMP-II learns generalizes to two external benchmarks, Terminal-Bench 2.1 and SWE-Bench Pro V2, with improved success rates.

BioXArena-Pro: a research-grade benchmark for autonomous biomedical machine learning agents

Coding agents are increasingly proposed as autonomous builders of biomedical models, but existing benchmarks are small, near saturation or open to leaked information. We present BioXArena-Pro, 64 research-level modelling tasks from eight biomedical domains, each rebuilt from a published study; most hold out whole biological units such as species or cohorts. Across 22 agent configurations, the best scores 55.1 of 100, and the scaffold matters almost as much as the model. We re-ran a published method for every task: where the published recipe applies unchanged, the best agent and the methods tie; on rebuilt tasks the methods trail by 8.2 points, suggesting that agents gain by adapting to new data. Pretrained models (including biological foundation models) matter where the strongest agent uses them: forbidding them decreases its score on those tasks by 9 points. Every task was audited in several AI-assisted rounds and a final human review.

Controlled Knowledge Engineering for Taxonomy Induction with Tool-Grounded LLM Agents and Runtime-Adaptive Policies

Taxonomies are structured knowledge representations that support semantic search, recommendation, product catalog organization, and retrieval-augmented generation. Their automated construction from a fixed set of candidate entities requires more than plausible text generation: the resulting hierarchy must be complete, structurally valid, and semantically coherent. Large Language Models (LLMs) are promising for this task, but iterative free-form generation remains vulnerable to omitted or hallucinated entities, invalid hierarchical relations, and inconsistent organizational principles. We introduce TIGA (Taxonomy Induction with Tool-Grounded Agents), a knowledge-engineering architecture that formulates taxonomy induction as an iterative decision process over an explicit state and constrained action space. TIGA combines executable taxonomy-editing tools, an memory that records tool calls, rationales, and outcomes, and a runtime-adaptive organizational policy that the agent revises during inference. An optional global reviewer evaluates the constructed taxonomy against the candidate set and the active policy. We evaluate TIGA on four benchmark taxonomies using two LLM backbones and compare it with single-shot and iterative prompting-based baselines. TIGA achieves the strongest structural-quality results in most evaluated configurations, but does not dominate on every precision measure. The gains are accompanied by substantially higher token consumption, API-call volume, and inference time. Ablation results show consistent benefits from the policy and interaction-memory components, whereas the effect of global review depends on the dataset and the available revision budget. These findings characterize tool grounding and runtime policy adaptation as promising but costly mechanisms for improving the controlled construction of structured knowledge representations.

From Attack Surface to Defense Architecture: Compositional Security for Agentic Coding Harnesses

AI coding harnesses couple language models to shells, filesystems, and network sockets, turning the harness into an automated Living-off-the-Land (LotL) platform: once an adversary injects instructions into retrieved content, dual-use binaries such as bash, curl, and find become the payload. We argue that security in agentic systems is a structural property of the cognitive architecture and permission composition rather than an emergent property of individual models. Static regex blacklists miss structural evasions, whereas LLM-as-a-Judge guardrails incur high latency while over-blocking benign work. We present ActiveSecHarness, a neurosymbolic reference-monitor architecture built around Separation of Intelligence and Authority. It combines (1) Macaroon-inspired HMAC capability tokens across four Trust and Authority Rings, (2) a 2D product taint lattice {L} = {L}_{trust} {L}_{sens} and a workspace provenance ledger that prevents secret laundering across disk, (3) deterministic Ring-0 OS/tool guards, and (4) bytecode certificates, split-horizon audit logs, self-healing security test synthesis, and an adaptive UserWikiManager. Across N=252 fixtures (120 attack, 120 benign, 12 kill chains), a live local LLM judge (qwen3:4b) refuses 98.3\% of benign work at 142.3\,ms latency, whereas Ring 0 achieves ABR=1.000 and FPR=0.000 in 12.7\,μs (11{,}200faster). In a multi-step trajectory ablation, an oracle Conseca-style stateless policy misses 4/12 kill chains (ABR=0.667) and coarse Boolean taint blocks 83.3\% of benign workflows, while our 2D product lattice achieves ABR=1.000 and FPR=0.000 at 20\,μs per step.

AVCC: Audio-Visual Conversation Corpus for Turn-Taking Prediction with a Human Benchmark

} Predicting who will speak next, and when, is a prerequisite for conversational agents and social robots that take turns without waiting for silence. Multiparty next-speaker prediction (NSP) has been studied on corpora with per-speaker sensors, each with its own event definitions. No public benchmark covers the single camera and microphone a robot has, and no model has been compared against how well people perform the same prediction. We turn AVCC, a 31-hour audio-visual corpus of two- and three-speaker online conversation recorded with a single static camera and microphone, into a public NSP benchmark. We add a speaker-disjoint seven-video test partition with 865 hold and 865 shift events at mutual-silence gaps, word-level forced-aligned transcripts for the whole corpus, and a human reference benchmark collected at the same events. We score an audio-only Role-Relative VAP model (RoleVAP) and the multimodal MuVAP model. Labels, transcripts, per-response human data, and the scripts that reproduce every number are released.

TreeAgent: Structure-Aware Memory Agent for Processing Long Hierarchical Data

Practical Web applications increasingly require agents to interpret long conversations or documents. For inputs exceeding the context windows of large language models (LLMs), memory agents process segments sequentially and retain past information in bounded memory. However, they typically divide inputs into flat token segments without preserving structure or hierarchy, causing three limitations for structured data such as API responses or HTML documents. First, fixed-length segmentation can split fields of the same record, breaking their relationships. Second, segments lack hierarchical information, obscuring their structural context and positions. Third, successive memory updates may discard details of earlier sibling records needed for reasoning on later segments. To address these limitations, we propose TreeAgent, a structure-aware agent that uses the input hierarchy to guide both segment-wise context processing and access to past information. Specifically, TreeAgent constructs segments from complete subtrees and groups of adjacent sibling subtrees to preserve local structural relationships. We provide theoretical guarantees on segment counts to guide token budget selection toward matching the segment count of fixed-length segmentation. We further attach structural paths to the segments for the agent to identify their ancestors and hierarchical positions. We also introduce residual memory links from the segments of low-level children to the segments of high-level parents, enabling direct information flows beyond successive memory updates. We evaluate TreeAgent with four representative memory agents on eight retrieval and aggregation tasks. The inputs are derived from real-world application data in JSON, HTML, YAML, and JavaScript and range from 8K to 1M tokens. TreeAgent improves the average score across the four datasets for all four agents, with 3.61% performance gain on average.

Chem World: A Large-Scale Benchmark and Physics-Aware Framework for Trustworthy Molecular Property Prediction

Molecular property prediction is fundamental to computational chemistry and drug formulation research, yet existing benchmarks remain fragmented across datasets, properties, and evaluation protocols, limiting systematic evaluation of model generalization. We introduce Chem World, a large-scale benchmark integrating 17 public datasets with over 800,000 molecular and chemical-system instances across 10 property tracks, covering single-molecule and multi-component systems, including drug solubility. Chem World provides a unified testbed for evaluating molecular representations and compositional modeling across diverse chemical properties. Building on the benchmark, we propose PACM (Physics-Aware Compositional Modeling), which combines molecular representations with composition-aware modeling and domain-specific physical constraints. Extensive experiments show that molecular language models provide strong and transferable representations, while PACM consistently improves prediction across diverse chemical systems. Chem World and our PACM-powered drug-property prediction Agent support generalizable chemical modeling and offer a foundation for AI-assisted biomedical research and drug formulation development.

Mobile AI Factory: Building Specialized Language Models for Your Mobile Device

Small language models (SLMs) running on mobile devices can keep user data private and work without connectivity. But they perform well only when fine-tuned for the target task and sized for the target device, a process that today requires repeated expert tuning. We present {Mobile AI Factory}, an agentic system that builds a fine-tuned, quantized SLM for a given task and phone. Given a task specification and a target phone, an orchestrator LLM chooses whether to tune hyperparameters, mine real data, or generate synthetic examples, while fixed rules roll back changes that hurt accuracy. The factory searches from small to large models across base models and quantizations, adapts its accuracy goal as it searches, and uses real measurements of the target phone across inference engines and backends. We evaluate Mobile AI Factory on ten tasks and four Android phones. On an unseen testset, its on-device models outperform two five-shot frontier models on five tasks, by up to 0.34, and match them on three more. Its search comes within 0.03 of exhaustively training all 27 model variants on an entity extraction task, while using 19less GPU time. Phone measurements also matter: the best configuration changes across phones. Without phone measurements, Claude Opus 5.5, given the full hardware and model specifications, misses the app's requirements in 25\% of easy and moderate cases and in 60\% of hard ones.

Deep Personalization: Continuous Context Observation for Local Proactive Agents

As AI agents become increasingly capable, users must still recognize when and how to ask for help, leaving many opportunities for useful support unrealized. Proactive agents hold the promise to close this gap, but effective proactivity requires understanding users' real-time activities and personalizing intervention timing so that assistance is offered when it is likely to be helpful rather than disruptive. We introduce deep personalization, a closed-loop process that connects continuous context observation with continual agent adaptation: an agent observes user activity, selectively retains long-term context, and adapts intervention decisions from implicit feedback. We initiate deep personalization in Coco, a proactive desktop agent, by having a separate Observer Agent that monitors desktop activity, maintains compact long-term user modeling context, and learns when assistance is desirable from implicit signals such as engagement, dismissal, explicit requests, and repeated work patterns. We further develop efficient on-device strategies to enable the Observer Agent to run on local AI compute platforms without streaming raw activity data off-device. For evaluation at scale without collecting sensitive real-user activity, we introduce a data-synthesis pipeline that transforms existing computer-use trajectories into OSWorld-Persona, a benchmark with persona-conditioned intervention labels. On OSWorld-Persona, deep personalization improves macro F1 across three model backbones from 0.12-0.19 under direct prompting to 0.35-0.48 after adaptation, a 2.4-3.0x relative gain. In a week-long user study, we observe that Coco improves its macro-averaged F1 score from 0.199 to 0.515. These results suggest that on-device deep personalization can make proactive agents more timely and increasingly aligned with each user's everyday work.

SafeRoute-MAS: Coverage-Aware and Risk-Calibrated Message Routing for Multi-Agent Scientific Reasoning

We introduce SafeRoute-MAS, a coverage-aware, risk-calibrated procedure that keeps all specialist messages or removes one using only pre-integration information. On a sealed cache of 5,328 committees, its source-compatible operating point gains +1.80 percentage points (95% CI [+1.13, +2.52]) while removing 12.76% of message tokens. We also run 4,580 controlled integrations over a stratified 458-committee sample on a public gpt-oss-120b endpoint. The sample estimate is -0.09 points; design weighting to the original workload gives +0.94 points (95% CI [-1.31, +3.50]) and 18.72% acted-input reduction. A weighted token-matched comparison likewise does not establish a selector advantage (+1.68 points, CI [-1.27, +5.10]). Only 13 of 88 cached non-neutral labels (14.8%) retain direction by repeated-call majority. Expected-corruption UCL is 4.60% after weighting, but only 2 of 11 prespecified marginals pass the support/risk rule. We therefore propose a numerical qualification with Keep-All fallback, applied here retrospectively rather than validated prospectively.

BioMem: Agentic Memory for Biomedical LLM Agents

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated considerable potential in biomedical applications, while agentic memory systems have emerged as a promising approach to preserving and utilizing information across tasks and interactions. However, a fundamental question remains: how effectively and reliably do these systems retain, retrieve, update, and utilize biomedical information? In this study, we systematically investigate agentic memory in the biomedical domain, focusing on task effectiveness, retrieval quality, information fidelity, and long-term robustness. We evaluate five memory approaches across four LLMs in three representative settings: biomedical knowledge reasoning, clinical prediction, and long-term conversational memory. Our analyses reveal how memory construction, evidence relevance, and conversational history shape downstream biomedical performance, highlighting the distinct challenges of retrieving relevant information, preserving its fidelity, and effectively utilizing it for reasoning. Building on these findings, we introduce Hybrid Memory Retrieval and Utilization (HMRU), a training-free framework that jointly enhances evidence accessibility and task-aware utilization to improve biomedical reasoning and long-term conversational memory. HMRU achieves an average relative improvement of 8.6% across biomedical question-answering and conversational memory benchmarks, with additional gains in selected clinical prediction tasks. It further reduces conversational answer errors by 24.9% and closes 48.0% of the performance gap to full-context inference. Our findings provide a systematic characterization of biomedical agentic memory and practical insights into developing more effective and reliable memory-augmented LLM systems.

Placing LLM Lookup Tables by Per-Layer Prefetch Deadlines

DeepSeek-V4.1's 203 GB of Engram n-gram tables sit in host DRAM today, taking 190 of the 223 GiB a 4-GPU serving process uses. Row indices depend only on input tokens, so reads can start with each step and overlap earlier layers. V4.1's two Engram layers have windows that differ by 30x (0.3 vs. 9.3 ms). We show that this deadline, together with session reuse and contention on a shared device, decides which tier each table can use and which layers need cache, and we give a model that predicts the resulting slowdown from measured read times. Agent and chat traffic reuse rows within sessions, and static hot sets transfer poorly. We build SlackTier, a table tier for SGLang that issues all lookups at step start. It reads the short-window layer first and splits a small GPU row cache across layers. The path runs inside the decode CUDA graph and is bit-exact with the original gather. Layer 14's table can go to NVMe uncached with no measurable decode cost. With both tables on four NVMe disks, mean time per output token on agent and chat replays rises at most 1.4% over unmodified SGLang, and host memory falls from 212 to 34 GiB. Both tables need no cache when read over RDMA (remote direct memory access) from another node's memory; one copy serves two instances. On a KV-constrained agent workload, using the freed memory as host KV cache at the same memory budget raises median throughput by 36% and cuts median p90 time to first token from 38 to 24 s.

Bursts That Outlast Themselves: Persistent Degradation in Prefix-Cached Agent Serving

LLM agents drive inference engines with closed-loop sessions whose context grows every turn, and serving them economically depends on prefix caching: a hit costs an incremental prefill of about a thousand tokens, a miss recomputes a 10--40K-token context. We show that this makes prefix-cached agent serving metastable. With an identical base workload, a few minutes of extra arrivals leaves a vLLM server in a degraded regime--a ~10% hit ratio, about half the throughput, and a backlog that grows for the remaining 70 minutes--while its no-burst twin stays healthy (9 of 12 pairs; none in the reverse direction). The regime appears at loads the cache-warm server sustains, is absent without prefix caching, and also appears with Qwen3-32B on SWE-bench agent trace shapes and on SGLang, which tolerates larger triggers. Slower service keeps more sessions in the system, their working set outgrows the KV pool, and every turn becomes a recomputation; a first-order workload-balance condition, calibrated independently, brackets when the regime can drain. Getting out is the harder problem: throttling new admissions recovered 1 of 7 matched collapsed runs, while suspending admitted sessions against a capacity-based limit recovered all of them within minutes. A CPU offload tier delays the collapse but does not prevent it. A budgeter that bounds the resident KV demand of active sessions to the pool, with thresholds that need no per-workload tuning, prevented the failure in every run we tested.

SteerDistill: Quantizing LLM Agents via Closed-Loop Teacher Steering

Low-bit quantization reduces the inference cost of LLM agents but can compromise task success. Examining failed rollouts, we find that quantized agents overlook task requirements or environmental conditions, producing environment transitions that diverge from successful full-precision references. Correcting these behavioral divergences remains difficult: offline data may miss the student's failure contexts, while its own rollouts may provide few correct responses in those contexts. We introduce SteerDistill, a quantization-aware distillation method in which a full-precision teacher guides the student to revise failed responses and iteratively refines its guidance using feedback from student execution. This closed-loop teacher steering produces locally verified behavioral corrections. We internalize these corrections by training the student without guidance to match the steered student's predictions at corrected turns and the full-precision teacher's at other turns, enabling unassisted inference. Across five agentic benchmarks and three models, SteerDistill exceeds the strongest quantized baseline by 1.67--2.18 points in average score under W4A16 and stays within one point of BF16. On τ^2-Bench, it outperforms QeRL by 1.84 percentage points in success rate using 67% fewer training GPU hours and produces shorter successful trajectories than the quantized baselines.
