Verifiable agent environments

Executable worlds, skill-based evaluation, and reward-checked traces.

Top 3 papers

  1. SPADE: Self-Play in Adaptive Synthetic Executable Environments

    It jointly learns to generate executable Gym environments and solve them, outperforming fixed-environment self-play by +5.3 average across eight held-out benchmarks.

  2. Self-Supervised Visual On-Policy Distillation

    Unlike teacher- or label-dependent distillation, it uses clean-versus-degraded views to self-distill, lifting Qwen3.5-4B from 70.7% to 77.4% and surpassing Qwen3-VL-235B.

  3. OpenART: Scaling Agent Red Teaming via Open-Ended Environment Evolution

    Targets stateful agents by evolving shared environment state, reaching 85.0% ASR across 75 setups.

Top 3 repos

  1. MirroS-Lab/HarnessEval-W

    Unlike scalar-only video benchmarks, it uses model-agnostic skill routing with auditable evidence trees.

  2. TencentARC/SCoPE

    Adds explicit camera-ray token coordinates to a pretrained video DiT with under 0.1% new parameters.

    →
  3. AlayaLab/Evoke

    Unlike recent camera-control video models, it sustains long interactive rollouts with bounded memory and mid-rollout re-prompting in three CFG-free steps.

Top 3 datasets

  1. Anthropic/claude-protein-binder-design

    It links 1,440 de novo binders to raw two-vendor kinetics, structures, and stepwise design provenance.

  2. TrNi/GenSAGA-3D

    Unlike typical 3D corpora, it pairs 9.3K text-conditioned meshes with four safety tiers and reusable views, SDF, point-cloud, and embedding artifacts.

  3. r0b0tlab/deepseek-v4-pro-0813-agentic

    Unlike recent agent datasets, each of 21,207 multi-turn traces includes deterministic verifiers and exact reward contracts.
