arXiv:2610.14224v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents' capabilities depend not only on their underlying models but also on their execution harnesses. Recursive self-improvement (RSI) offers a promising approach to automatically evolve these harnesses. However, deploying RSI in open-world settings still faces two critical challenges. First, open-world tasks are typically unseen during the harness design phase and novel at test time, leaving no ground-truth verifiers to reliably guide online harness edits. Second, the RSI process remains highly task-specific and fails to generalize to novel
