@Xudong07452910: Recently, while looking into agent self-evolution research, I've been focusing on a question: When are the trajectories left by agents worth continued learning for the next round of training? This time, I took a self-evolving agent paper from SEED and ran it entirely in Apodex…

Autocontext is an open-source recursive self-improvement harness that helps AI Agents continuously optimize through iterative execution, evaluation, and knowledge accumulation, generating reusable playbooks, datasets, and even local models. It is suitable for developers building production-grade Agent workflows.
@xiaohu: Yesterday, I saw many people sharing Apodex 1.1, an AI agent specifically built for deep research to solve those hard problems that 'have no ready-made answers and require extensive investigation'. Curious, I tested it with two tasks, and they ran all afternoon without finishing. The execution time is indeed long. This agent can, as long as you give it a goal, run for an extended period…
Apodex 1.1 is an AI agent designed for deep research, capable of handling complex tasks that require extensive investigation. It uses a main agent to decompose problems and asynchronously dispatches multiple sub-agents for execution, supporting long-running operations and automatic recovery.
@vintcessun: Tonight I came across a learning roadmap project that redefined where to start learning Agent. I used to think Agent was just a pile of tools and frameworks, but its core is the "observe-think-execute" loop and the harness engineering's organization of permissions, state, and backtracking. It breaks down learning into building a minimal Agent loop from scratch all the way to deploying a real Agent, with 8 stages, each with clear deliverables and recommended resources — not just links but an actionable todo list. This systematic approach made me realize my previous learning was too fragmented.
An open-source learning roadmap project called Agent-Learning-Hub, which breaks down AI Agent learning into 8 stages from building a minimal Agent loop to production deployment, providing executable todo lists and recommended resources, maintained by members of the Datawhale community.
@Xudong07452910: If you've been following AI Scientist recently, I highly recommend this article. Currently, many Research Agents generate a large number of experiments and hypotheses first, then let a Judge select the best. Research often involves, after a failure, figuring out where you went wrong and what areas remain unexplored. …
This article recommends paying attention to AI Scientist and discusses how research agents can learn from failures by analogizing to fuzz testing, thereby mapping the unknown and guiding subsequent experiments.
@Xudong07452910: A classic challenge in RL training of LLM agents: after a long task fails, where should the model start learning? The final reward can usually only tell the agent 'success' or 'failure', but it's hard to pinpoint which intermediate judgments are worth keeping and which actions led the entire trajectory astray. This paper proposes SEED, using 'self-evolving online distillation...'
This paper proposes SEED, a method that internalizes post-hoc skills from trajectories into model parameters through self-evolving online distillation, solving the reward sparsity problem in long-horizon RL training, achieving significant improvements on benchmarks such as ALFWorld.
