Nutlope/hallmark — CSS | Anti-AI-slop design skill — An anti-"AI flavor" interface design skill for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, specifically curing generative UI that looks fake at a glance.
pbakaus/impeccable — Rust | Design vocabulary for your coding agent — Gives coding agents a design vocabulary: use polish / bolder to adjust style, critique / audit to review, and block AI slop before delivery.

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

MuonGS: Pretraining LLMs with Relaxed Weight-Norm Control | cs.LG | Athanasios Glentis, Dawei Li, Mingyi Hong Uses "cumulative effective learning rate" to explain why Muon's weight-norm control works: vanilla Muon can only accumulate logarithmically, which limits exploration. MuonGS uses a Gram–Schmidt projection to remove the radial component of the update without locking the norm, proving the norm grows as √t and guaranteeing C_T=Ω(√T). On 160M/400M dense and 135M-activated MoE models it beats MuonH in long-horizon training perplexity, with roughly 15% token-equivalent speedup at equal loss.
Rare, Relevant, and Still Wrong: How Memory Fails LLM Group Decisions | cs.AI | Anouar Imel, Imad Charradi, Abderrahman Sghir CrossProfile (60 templates, 480 tasks) decouples "which facts are held by whom" from textual content: filtering memory by relevance drags off-topic decoys back in, and even perfect relevance filtering scores 23–31 points below rarest-first; rarest-first is on average only slightly better than random. The decision model also carries a "social proof" bias — it upweights facts framed as "many agents say so," and removing attribution labels actually raises accuracy by 13–24 points.
TeamGym: A Gym for Team Decision-Making by AI Agents with Distributed Information | cs.AI | Chanwoo Park, Jaywoong Jeong, Zachary Wojtowicz Uses "pivotal information" to precisely control how key facts are distributed across team members. 8 models × 12 real corpora reveal two hard failures: distributing information lowers success by 22.9 points (communication gap), and needing to retrieve key facts from source text yourself lowers it by another 19.9 points (retrieval gap). Using only the final decision as an RL reward is enough to train self-organized collaboration in participation, speaking choice, and communication.
Understanding the limits of latent world models | cs.LG | Rodrigo Gonzalez Laiz, Steffen Schneider Proposes that a "faithful latent world model" should satisfy equivariance between the environment transition mapping and the learned latent dynamics, and introduces a latent rollout consistency metric. The conclusion is quite sharp: of the SOTA latent world models tested, not one actually completes its tasks by faithfully modeling environment dynamics.
Can LLMs Uncover Hidden Physical Laws through Free Exploration? | cs.CL | Zhen Yang, Wen Wang, Xander Xu LongChang builds simulated worlds where physical laws are rewritten (e.g. heavy objects fall more slowly), gives no task and no hints, and lets LLMs act as explorers running their own experiments. Of 12 models, only GPT-6-Astra reaches a 16.7% discovery rate; the other 11 are all at 0, and exploration logs show many anomalies simply never being followed up.

🎯 Today's One-Line Summary

"Gemini 4 Carbon pushes 'agents that can run on their own for days' to the fore, but what is really bottlenecking today is no longer whether models are strong enough — it is how information moves between multiple agents and how memory avoids lying; two arXiv papers' scales both point at the same leak."
