Sibyl-AutoResearch: Autonomous Research Needs Self-Evolving Trial-and-Error Harnesses, Not Paper Generators
📰 ArXiv cs.AI
Autonomous research systems need self-evolving trial-and-error harnesses to produce research judgment, not just paper generators
Action Steps
- Analyze current autonomous research systems to identify areas where trial experience is lost
- Design self-evolving trial-and-error harnesses to improve research judgment
- Implement Sibyl-AutoResearch or similar systems to automate the scientific workflow
- Evaluate the effectiveness of these systems in producing research outcomes
- Refine and iterate on the systems to improve their performance

Title: Sibyl-AutoResearch: Autonomous Research Needs Self-Evolving Trial-and-Error Harnesses, Not Paper Generators
Abstract:
arXiv:2605.22343v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous research systems increasingly make the scientific workflow executable: agents can propose ideas, run code, inspect results, and draft papers. But executable workflows do not by themselves produce research judgment. We analyze where current systems lose trial experience: weak evidence becomes prose, pilot signals become broad claims, memory remains textual, and recurring process failures do not change later behavior. We introduce Sibyl-
