arXiv:2610.15708v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coding agents based on frozen language models can improve their performance by refining the external context they rely on, without updating model weights. We study recursive self-improvement through behavioral specifications: natural-language code documentation that describes the behavior of program entities and guides agents in generating correct code. We formulate a self-improvement loop in which an agent generates code from its current specifications, evaluates it with execution-verified tests, and refines the specifications based on observed
