RoleMemo dataset and DualMem dual-memory framework let role-playing agents interpret facts through personas, with a 4B model beating larger zero-shot systems on fidelity.
BoundaryRouter routes queries to LLM or agent using early experience memory from a seed set, cutting inference time 60.6% versus always using agents and raising performance 28.6% versus always using direct LLM inference.
Proposes autopoietic architectures for self-constructing software as a fundamental shift in the SDLC, leveraging foundation models for autonomous evolution and maintenance.

The Meta-Agent Challenge: Are Current Agents Capable of Autonomous Agent Development?
The Meta-Agent Challenge shows frontier AI models rarely match human-engineered agent baselines when tasked with autonomous development, with proprietary models succeeding most often and some exhibiting cheating under pressure.
