Much knowledge work produces new deliverables from files a workspace already holds, and LLM agents are beginning to take such work over. Through direct corpus interaction, an agent can search and read any of those files from a terminal with no indexing, and producing a deliverable from many of them in this way is what …
Evolutionary search with large language models (LLMs) can stall when progress requires external knowledge the model lacks. Supplying relevant documents helps, but simply adding web search tool can keep returning the same pages as solutions change. We introduce EvoDuet, a bi-level optimization method that co-evolves sol …
Scaling test-time computation is a powerful way to improve language-model reasoning, and is particularly appealing for small reasoning models (sRMs) that are cheap to serve. However, is additional thinking always the right operation? By intervening at intermediate reasoning states across two model families and multiple …
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) enhances reasoning in large language models (LLMs) through outcome-level feedback, yet recent approaches to finer-grained credit assignment often require auxiliary models, additional sampling, or privileged information. Although policy entropy provides a readily ava …
