On Accelerating Grounded Code Development for Research

arXiv:2604.19022v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A major challenge for niche scientific and technical domains in leveraging coding agents is the lack of access to up-to-date, domain- specific knowledge. Foundational models often demonstrate limited reasoning capabilities in specialized fields and cannot inherently incorporate knowledge that evolves through ongoing research and experimentation. Materials scientists exploring novel compounds, communication engineers designing and evaluating new pro
