arXiv:2610.13494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing LLM-based agent approaches for long-horizon machine learning engineering (MLE) often use context engineering, implemented through custom harnesses that manage tools, skills, and accumulated experience. However, we find that as single-session execution lengthens, the agent's reasoning intensity declines alongside slowing progress, summarized as long-horizon deceleration, and the benefits of these custom harnesses vanish as the underlying model improves, summarized as harness staleness. These findings suggest that their benefits may not pe
