Forage V2: Knowledge Evolution and Transfer in Autonomous Agent Organizations

Agent self-evolution in long-horizon LLM systems is largely procedural: useful experience is not merely stored information, but reusable procedures for searching, debugging, and verification. Yet current evaluations do not isolate this form of transfer. Agent benchmarks test single-episode task solving; memory benchmarks target information retention rather than procedural reuse. We introduce EvoAgentBench, a benchmark for agent self-evolution via Ability-guided transfer across four agentic domains: web research, algorithmic reasoning, software engineering, and knowledge work. EvoAgentBench extracts trace-grounded Abilities from agent executions, canonicalizes them into operational units, and builds domain-specific Ability Graphs linking tasks that share procedural overlap. By design, every test task is backed by verified training-side Ability support. Across a 528/267 train/test split, two scaffolds, and three backbones, curated Ability content transfers reliably across model families, but no current automatic method sustains positive gain in all settings. EvoAgentBench shifts self-evolution evaluation from aggregate accuracy comparison to fine-grained diagnosis of experience encoding, routing, and uptake. The benchmark is publicly available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/EverMind-AI/EvoAgentBench.

Large language model (LLM)-based agents increasingly rely on reasoning, tool use, and iterative execution, yet existing agent frameworks still operate largely in isolation. While recent memory-based agent systems improve individual agents through local retrieval and workflow reuse, local experiences remain fragmented across isolated agent frameworks, limiting cross-framework knowledge transfer and collaborative reasoning evolution. We propose FedAgentKE, a lightweight framework for Federated Semantic Knowledge Evolution across heterogeneous agents. FedAgentKE enables distributed agent frameworks to collaboratively evolve transferable reasoning abstractions through iterative semantic knowledge distillation, aggregation, and adaptation without sharing raw reasoning trajectories. Experiments demonstrate consistent improvements under both cross-framework and cross-task settings, highlighting the potential of federated semantic knowledge evolution for future collaborative agent ecosystems.

As coding agents increasingly handle implementation, the central challenge shifts from building individual agents to building an infrastructure that systematically improves them. Current approaches optimize agent systems without accumulating transferable knowledge, accumulate knowledge without compositional reasoning over it, and lack a mechanism for that knowledge to self-evolve through operational evidence. MEGA (Meta Evaluation-Grounded Adaptation) addresses these gaps as a self-evolving infrastructure: each optimization cycle produces durable assets, compositional reasoning over those assets guides subsequent optimization, and operational evidence refines both the accumulated wisdom and the reasoning that governs it. Layer 1 distills reusable wisdom from agent sessions through behavioral-pattern clustering and empirical A/B validation, transforming each process into a durable asset. Layer 2 decomposes these assets into atomic PCR (Primary-Context-Resultant) units within a typed Wisdom Graph and performs deductive, abductive, and inductive reasoning to expand implicit relations; it then assembles context-specific execution plans through compositional retrieval that surfaces bridging knowledge unreachable by embedding similarity alone. Layer 3 performs multi-agent collaborative optimization over heterogeneous agent workflows (code nodes, LLM calls, and tool-using agents), attributing improvement effects to specific strategy changes through controlled evaluation that eliminates data variance. Evidence fed back from Layer 3 drives the self-evolution of both the curation strategies that govern wisdom composition and the optimization trajectories accumulated across runs. The result is an infrastructure in which optimizing an agent system and evolving the knowledge that guides optimization are one and the same process.
