Your agent got slower the more MCP servers you added, and it's not the model. Every server dumps its whole tool list into context on every request: 3 servers cost ~24k tokens before you even say hi. Conduit puts them behind one local gateway that exposes 3 meta-tools the agent searches on demand. Measured: 97% less tool overhead per request, ~90% fewer tokens, same task success. Cloud or local, one tool or five. Keys in your OS keychain. Free and open source.

Neural Particle Automata is a novel approach that combines neural networks with cellular automata principles to create emergent computational systems.

Vision Transformers (ViT) dominate computer vision. However, their reliance on rigid patch projectors hinders transfer to Earth Observation (EO), where input modalities, scales, and resolutions vary widely. We introduce UniverSat, a ViT-style backbone built around a Universal Patch Encoder that maps patches from arbitrary spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions, and from both optical and non-optical sensors, into a shared embedding space with a shared set of weights. This enables training a ...

Flow matching has recently emerged as a strong paradigm for state-of-the-art text-to-image (T2I) generation, enabling high-quality generation with a small number of sampling steps. As these models are increasingly integrated into real-world applications, ensuring safe and non-sensitive content generation has become a critical requirement. However, adapting safety and concept removal methods to this new generation framework remains an open challenge. Specifically, prior methods largely rely on it...

While recent LLM-based terminal agents have demonstrated promising capabilities, the scarcity of high-quality, executable training data remains a critical bottleneck. Existing synthesis pipelines typically scale by retrofitting surface-level artifacts into tasks, frequently yielding ambiguous instructions, shallow execution paths, and brittle tests that provide weak learning signals. To overcome this, we introduce CLI-Universe, a principled synthesis engine that constructs terminal-agent tasks. ...

Long-horizon LLM agents can fail quietly: they settle on one reading of the evidence early, then spend the rest of the run defending it. We call this premature commitment. Final-answer scoring misses the failure mode because it sees only the answer, not whether the process has already collapsed to a stable path. We define representational commitment as cross-run hidden-state convergence at a fixed reasoning step, and use it as an early diagnostic of trajectory consistency. On Llama-3.1-70B runni...

Multi-view 3D Visual Question Answering (MV3D-VQA) requires integrating partial observations into a coherent 3D scene representation and selecting informative viewpoints for multi-step spatial reasoning. However, current multimodal LLMs are typically trained with sparse, answer-level supervision, which often yields inconsistent cross-view reasoning and brittle view selection. We present DR-MV3D (Dense Reward for MV3D-VQA), a map-grounded learning framework that provides dense, verifiable rewards...

Phones are becoming an important execution surface for general-purpose agents, but training open models for reliable phone use remains difficult because the environment that matters at deployment, real devices running real apps, is slow, stateful, side-effectful, and hard to reset or verify, while scalable mock environments only approximate real behavior. We present PhoneBuddy, a training recipe and open-model line for agentic phone use that combines a real-app environment with a mock-app enviro...

Recent attempts to combine large language models (LLMs) with causal discovery ask models to infer pairwise directions, propose graph structures, or inject language-model outputs as priors and constraints. These approaches promise faster analysis, but they also obscure whether a causal evidence is supported by data and assumptions or by textual associations, prompt artifacts and hallucinated mechanisms. We argue for a different role for agents in causal discovery. Agents should inspect data, retr...

We introduce ShotcreteDepth, a bi-modal dataset from the construction domain that captures both an active shotcreting process and general construction environments. The dataset comprises stereo RGB imagery and LiDAR point clouds acquired under harsh real-world conditions, including high turbidity and poor illumination. Such conditions adversely affect sensor measurements, leading to incomplete and noisy observations that pose significant challenges for perception systems in autonomous applicatio...

As retrieval systems scale, high-quality reranking becomes increasingly important. However, most existing rerankers, whether encoder-based or decoder-based, jointly encode the query and passage, tightly coupling their computation and limiting deployment efficiency as well as flexibility. We present KaLM-Reranker-V1, a fast but not late-interaction (FBNL) reranker that decouples query and passage computation while retaining expressive relevance modeling. Built on an encoder-decoder architecture, ...

Long agent traces composed of chains of thought and tool calls accumulate stale content that anchor subsequent generations, and eventually outgrow the context window. Existing scaffolds mitigate it with fixed-interval compaction triggered at a token threshold. Such triggers pay no heed to trajectory structure, risking discard of partial results mid-derivation or mid-search. We propose SelfCompact, a scaffold that allows the model itself to decide when and how to compact. Specifically, it pairs t...

Terminal-using agents have quickly become the most popular downstream application of language models (LMs). Despite their prevalence, relatively little academic work has examined RL-based training of these models, likely due to difficult benchmarks, a lack of data, and a lack of simple baseline recipes. We present Tmax, the strongest open RL recipe for terminal agents to date, bringing open data recipes closer to the frontier. While simple, our recipe achieves 27\% on Terminal-Bench 2.0 with onl...

Computer-use agents (CUAs) now act on a user's behalf across personal applications such as email, calendars, and to-do lists. This cross-application access is useful, but it also creates a privacy risk that has been largely overlooked: when an agent works in one context, it can pull in information from another that is inappropriate in that context. Hence, we introduce AgentCIBench, an evaluation harness that turns this risk into executable, deterministically scored scenarios. We target three com...

With the rapid spread of retrieval-augmented generation and semantic search, choosing the right embedding and retrieval configuration is increasingly hard. Large retrieval benchmarks are comprehensive but too heavy to rerun during development, and there is little infrastructure for comparing production settings--dimensionality reduction, quantization, reranking--across many models under identical conditions. We present HAKARI-Bench, a lightweight benchmark that reconstructs existing retrieval su...
