arXiv:2610.11450v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study how a coding agent learns across a sequence of abstract reasoning tasks. The agent runs on a frozen foundation model inside a fixed harness and acts by writing and running Python and shell scripts. It retains no state across turns other than its written artifacts, so every thought it forms, carries, corrects or abandons leaves a trace, where a thought is any belief, rule or plan committed to a file. We let the agent play ARC-AGI-3, a set of interactive reasoning games that provide no instructions. Each game is a sequence of levels, and a
