Large Language Models often struggle with complex, multi-step operational tasks because they remain static during inference and cannot learn from past experience. To address this, we propose MUSE, a framework that enables iterative self-improvement through a hierarchical Memory Module. MUSE organizes cross-domain insights to facilitate the orchestration of long-horizon workflows. The core of our approach is an autonomous post-execution critique mechanism: after completing each sub-task, the system analyzes its operational logs and distills raw execution data into structured, reusable knowledge. This allows the agent to evolve dynamically rather than relying on fixed parameters. Evaluated on the rigorous TAC productivity benchmark, MUSE achieves new state-of-the-art results, significantly outperforming previous methods using only the streamlined Gemini-2.5 Flash model. Our analysis demonstrates that MUSE’s performance scales with the accumulation of insights and exhibits strong cross-task transferability, marking a key step toward autonomous systems capable of lifelong learning in professional environments.

The rapid evolution of Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) has advanced workflow automation; however, existing research mainly targets performance upper bounds in static environments, overlooking robustness for stochastic real-world deployment. We identify three key challenges: dynamic task scheduling, active exploration under uncertainty, and continuous learning from experience. To bridge this gap, we introduce TraineeBench, a dynamic evaluation environment that simulates a “trainee” agent continuously exploring a novel setting. Unlike traditional benchmarks, TraineeBench evaluates agents along three dimensions: (1) context-aware scheduling for streaming tasks with varying priorities; (2) prudent information acquisition to reduce hallucination via active exploration; and (3) continuous evolution by distilling generalized strategies from rule-based, dynamically generated tasks. Experiments show that cutting-edge agents have significant deficiencies in dynamic environments, especially in active exploration and continual learning. Our work establishes a framework for assessing agent reliability, shifting evaluation from static tests to realistic, production-oriented scenarios.

Computer-Aided Design is pivotal in modern manufacturing, yet existing automated methods predominantly rely on open-loop, one-shot generation, creating a mismatch with iterative real-world practices. In this paper, we present IterCAD, a unified multimodal agent framework for closed-loop, interactive CAD generation and editing. We formulate the task as a multi-turn interaction between a multimodal agent and an executable CAD sandbox, covering three tasks: Drawing-to-Code, Text-to-Code, and Interactive Editing. To support this, we develop a data synthesis pipeline incorporating advanced industrial manufacturing features to generate standard-compliant multi-view engineering drawings, complex code-editing tasks, and high-fidelity interaction trajectories. We optimize the agent via progressive SFT followed by geometry-aware reinforcement learning with viable-prefix masking to enhance code executability and geometric fidelity. Finally, we introduce the IterCAD-Bench evaluation suite and propose the Chamfer Distance Tolerance-Recall (CD-TR) curve alongside its AUC-TR metric, establishing a survivor-bias-free standard that unifies code validity and geometric precision. Extensive experiments demonstrate that IterCAD achieves highly competitive performance across multiple benchmarks, significantly outperforming existing approaches in both code executability and geometric precision, while exhibiting superior capabilities in closed-loop iterative refinement.
