OpenForgeRL: Train Harness-native Agents in Any Environment
Modern AI agents rely on elaborate inference harnesses such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenClaw to drive multi-turn reasoning, tool use, and access to external systems. While powerful, these complex harnesses also make agents hard to train end-to-end with open infrastructure, whose SFT/RL stacks cannot natively express stateful, multi-process harness inference. To address this, we present OpenForgeRL, an open-source framework for training harness-based agents end-to-end in diverse environments. OpenForgeRL achieves this with a lightweight proxy that serves the harness's model calls while recor
Logos: An Agent Harness on a Cross-Process Bus
Modern agent systems assemble capabilities at runtime, and this dynamic composition has recently received a complete formal treat ment in the spatiotemporal-composability calculus, in which a capability is a component carrying a tracked inverse, and agents are assembled as plugins. This plugin form is carried by a single process sharing one context, a carrier that places all components in one physical failure domain, a fault suspends every component at once, and process death interrupts every session the process hosts. This paper shows that neither the modeling nor the calculus binds an agent
TRACE: Turn-level Reward Assignment via Credit Estimation for Long-Horizon Agents
Multi-turn agents solve complex tasks through extended sequences of tool interactions before producing a final answer, making credit assignment a fundamental challenge during post-training. Outcome rewards provide reliable supervision for short-horizon reasoning, but become sparse and high-variance as trajectories grow to tens or hundreds of tool calls. They can also be misleading: a failed rollout may contain many useful actions that move the agent closer to the goal, yet outcome-only training assigns them the same negative advantage as the eventual mistake. We propose TRACE (Turn-level Rewar
