arXiv:2610.22791v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents have shown promising potential in coding tasks, and their performance is jointly determined by the policy model and the harness that mediates their interaction with the environment. Indeed, harness and policy are mutually reinforcing and evolving only one component is suboptimal---a harness tuned for one checkpoint may not target the failure modes of an updated policy, while policy learning remains limited to the trajectories elicited by a fixed harness. In light of this, we propose Self-HPO, a recursive self-i
