DietrichGebert/ponytail — JavaScript | ★2079 today — Makes an AI agent think like "the laziest senior engineer in the room": the best code is the code you never wrote.

📄 arXiv Papers — cs.AI / cs.LG / cs.CL

Sage-A1.5: From Long-Horizon Execution to Scientific Exploration with Capability Composition | cs.AI | Wenjie Lou, Tianshuo Peng, Shiyang Feng A 35B MoE agentic model that shifts the focus from "solving a single problem" to self-orchestration and verification across long-horizon tasks — it reorders work and revises its plan mid-flight.
Cache Engineering for Agents | cs.CL | Tianyu Fu, Ruoxi Wang, Zihan Min Once agent trajectories get long, KV cache I/O and storage become the main cost; the paper pushes "context engineering" down into the cache layer, directly managing cache growth and reuse.
Evolving Agent Interfaces | cs.AI | Saaket Agashe, Yuzhe Yang, Gonzalo Gonzalez-Pumariega computer-use agents are limited by the interfaces humans hand them: work a single line of code could do gets typed cell by cell. The authors argue the interface itself should evolve with the task, rather than building tools by hand.
Toolflation: Seller Agents Distort Tool Markets Through Spontaneous Generative Engine Optimization | cs.AI | Zhenwei Tang, Di Bai, Jintao Liu Agents have started selling tools to agents. Seller agents told only to "be more likely to get picked" spontaneously run GEO optimization and skew the tool market — the first "market failure" study of the agent economy.
MAS-Guard: Unified Guardrails from Individual Agents to Multi-Agent LLM Systems | cs.CR | Mohammad Kachuee, Phu Mon Htut, Sheng Li Extends safety guardrails from a single agent to multi-agent systems: distributed permissions, heterogeneous roles and mutual invocation open new attack surfaces, all covered by one unified defense.
