After the release of K3.1 Pro, due to numerous users reporting that their quotas were being depleted too quickly, Moonshot AI urgently issued an announcement stating, “The issue lies with us, and we should have fixed it sooner.” Alongside compensating affected users, Moonshot AI also indicated that it would “reduce unnecessary sub-agent calls and output lengths.” Just two days before the model went live, Anthropic published an article titled “Building agents: When to fold subagents into your main agent loop,” which addressed precisely the topic of sub-agents. Anthropic concluded that, by comparing Claude deployments across multiple companies, they found that a single agent equipped with specific skills actually outperformed “a group of...”
Why isn’t your quota being used? Most of it is going toward “holding ineffective meetings” for sub‑agents.
During the 2026 Changsha · 1024 Programmers’ Day event, the CEIC Consumer Electronics Innovation Conference and CSDN joined forces in Shenzhen to present a cutting-edge tech extravaganza for developers.

On October 26, Zhang Tao (online alias HideCloud), co-founder and product partner at Manus, recently published a lengthy article on his WeChat public account “Qianyun Sisi,” titled “Transforming Manus with Manus.” The piece opens with an image that left a deep impression on him. He had submitted several requirements and bug reports to an engineer; when he checked back later, he found that the engineer’s computer had multiple Codex and Manus sessions open. Clicking on any one of them, he saw that the input was precisely the original requirement he’d just posted on Slack—without a single word changed. Even more surprising to him was that this engineer was simultaneously working on over ten or twenty tasks. At Manus today, this has become the norm. The article is packed with information, but a few key points are especially worth noting. Internally, Manus has created a unified code entry point called Manus-mono, accompanied by a manual designed for AI, enabling the AI system to view the entire project landscape across repositories. With a single request, one person can complete all client-side development. The mobile team has consistently consisted of only seven members, yet they manage two products and four apps, keeping their progress largely in sync with the web version. All product managers have submitted code to Manus, and roughly half of them can independently bring their requirements to production. Some product managers even turn their written requirements into video presentations. Meanwhile, the marketing team now has a “digital colleague” that schedules its own tasks, proactively reminds everyone of project deadlines, and even reaches out across teams to clarify feature details. In September, the company’s per-capita AI spending exceeded $10,000, with a small number of individuals consuming as much as $70,000 to $80,000 in a single month. Zhang Tao dedicated an entire section to addressing external skepticism. The timing of the article’s release is also noteworthy. At the end of September, Manus launched version 2.0 along with its personal AI agent app, Cue; in early October, the parent company Butterfly Effect announced the completion of a new round of financing exceeding $500 million, while simultaneously opening 17 positions in Beijing. Seen against this backdrop, the article reads less like a routine update and more like a manifesto marking the Manus team’s entry into the 2.0 era. It discusses how the organization leverages AI to evolve, while revealing the company’s product roadmap, cost structure, and hiring standards. 01 Manus itself serves as a showcase for 2.0 If you compare the internal practices described in the article with the feature list of Manus 2.0, you’ll find…
Shopify AI saw transaction orders grow by a factor of 13. In the early morning of October 16, pre-orders began for Apple’s first foldable-screen phone, the iPhone Duo. Priced from $1,999, initial production capacity was tight, and delivery dates quickly slipped to January next year. This time, it wasn’t just people glued to their screens vying for the launch. This year, Agents have become the strictest “parents” to iPhone Duo scalpers. | Image source: Apple On the MacRumors forum, one user who missed out vented their frustration, while on Reddit others boasted about using Muse bots to snatch up multiple units in a single go—before even a human could click, the inventory had already been swept away by AI. Muse is Meta’s personal Agent, launched on September 8; shortly after its debut, it topped the free charts in the U.S. App Store, with downloads soon surpassing 2.5 million. According to Meta, shopping has become one of Muse’s primary use cases. Around the time the iPhone Duo went on sale, Muse even released a new version optimized for this device, with an update note that emphasized making in‑chat shopping more convenient. AI-driven shopping has moved from demo stages at product launches straight into real‑world stock‑picking scenarios. But not every retailer welcomes these new customers. In late September, Amazon began banning Muse. By October, users of Musk’s Grok Bot encountered the same warning when placing orders on Amazon: unauthorized AI agents continuing to access the platform violates Amazon’s terms of service. Meanwhile, another company, Shopify, took the exact opposite approach. On September 21, Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke announced a deep partnership with Muse, enabling Muse to process checkout through Shop Pay across all Shopify stores. And Shopify’s financial reports already show early returns from this strategy: in the first quarter of this year, orders generated via AI search grew nearly thirteenfold year over year, while store traffic driven by AI increased eightfold. Closing doors on one hand, opening them on the other—when more and more purchasing decisions are handed over to Agents, will the question of “whether or not to let Agents in” become…
Author | Cynthia Editor | Zheng Xuan In 2026, the AI 3D landscape stands at a delicate crossroads. Momentum in the primary market continues to surge, with new models and startups emerging one after another, and single-image-to-3D generation now delivers photorealistic results that are almost indistinguishable from real-world objects. Yet beneath the dazzling demo façade, most generated outputs remain stuck at the “turntable showcase” stage: a meticulously crafted character or mechanical model slowly rotates under lighting, its scales, fabric folds, and metallic engravings rendered with lifelike detail. But as soon as these details enter real‑world production workflows—such as game engine rigging, industrial simulation, or 3D printing—their limitations quickly surface: structural fractures, backside collapses, fused details, and uneditable meshes begin to erupt, swallowing up the efficiency gains brought by AI through costly manual post‑processing. Fidelity in frontal views no longer equates to overall 3D quality—a consensus that’s taking hold across the industry. The race for AI‑driven 3D has shifted from the first half—“Can we generate?”—to the second half—“Can we deliver in real‑world applications?” It is precisely at this juncture that leading player Hi3D has made two strategic moves: officially open‑sourcing its production‑proven Hi3D V1.0 platform, while simultaneously launching the creator‑centric Hi3D Agent, which bridges the industry’s foundational layers and deeply embeds itself within the full creative workflow. Prior to this, the company—founded less than three years ago—had already delivered a solid track record: securing two consecutive rounds of funding within six months, totaling nearly $50 million, with top-tier investors like Sequoia China, IDG Capital, and Meituan Longzhu all participating; its Hi3D platform now serves over 120 countries and regions, supporting more than 2 million creators, and enjoys deep integrations with leading hardware manufacturers such as Tuzhu Technology and xTool. From academic breakthroughs in sparse geometry to open‑source, production‑ready models, and end‑to‑end connectivity via its Agent creation system, Hi3D has secured its ticket to the next phase of 3D generation. 01 3D Generation: Overhyped Demos, Underestimated Production Gaps The underlying logic of single‑image‑to‑3D generation inherently carries a perspective bias. As metrics like ULIP and Uni3D have repeatedly set new benchmarks, the industry’s past few years have been marked by an emphasis on front-facing views at the expense of holistic understanding, and on outward appearance rather than internal structure. However, the essence of a 3D asset lies in its ability to be rotated, edited, and manufactured as a three‑dimensional object. In a single character image, the vertical…

arXiv:2610.33015v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to maintain personalized and temporally coherent interactions, but repeated LLM inference for memory admission, extraction, and organization introduces substantial cost and latency. We present SLICE-Mem, a lightweight memory framework that combines salience-guided admission and predicate-centered information extraction. A compact classifier identifies user turns worth retaining, and a semantic-dependency-based extractor converts admitted turns into concise memory entries. This online pipeline requires no generative LLM calls, while cross-entry reconciliation is deferred to an offline consolidation stage. We evaluate SLICE-Mem on the weekly subset of Memora and LongMemEval-S using 8B a
arXiv:2610.33366v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to support research idea generation and scientific discovery. Multi-agent debate offers a collaborative approach to this task by bringing together diverse perspectives to develop research ideas. However, a key challenge is how to equip agents with distinct and meaningful expertise to guide their contributions. Inspired by how researchers draw on accumulated research experience during collaboration, we introduce InsightAgents, a framework that constructs literature-grounded agent expertise by distilling insights from graphs of related papers. Guided by insights that trace evolving research approaches, reveal underlying assumptions, and identify unresolved challenges, within a line of research,
arXiv:2610.32429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly execute tasks asynchronously: a main agent continues working while its subagents run, and the task state may change before their results arrive. The main agent must decide which work to update or preserve and which checks to repeat, while avoiding prohibited changes. Final task success alone does not reveal whether these results were handled correctly, and natural asynchronous arrivals are hard to reproduce. We introduce Async-RBench, a benchmark for asynchronous task execution in LLM agents, with 200 executable tasks covering eight scenarios. A scenario controller regulates result delivery using predefined task-state conditions, while an Event Response Contract (ERC) specifies what each response
arXiv:2610.33279v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Introduction: Increasing volumes of individual case safety reports (ICSRs) challenge expert-led causality assessment in pharmacovigilance. We developed MARCA (Multi-Agent Retrieval-Augmented Causality Assessment), a four-agent framework for Naranjo-based assessment, and evaluated agreement with human experts and exploratory differences between non-RAG and RAG-labelled scores. Methods: MARCA combined scientific literature retrieval, drug-label assessment, objective-evidence classification, and clinical causality reasoning using Gemini 2.5 Pro and DeepSeek-V3.2. Agent-generated rationales informed human-assisted scoring. A consensus expert reference standard covered 215 ICSRs and 1,562 drug-event combinations (DECs) from FAERS (Q1-Q2 2025). Agr
arXiv:2610.33012v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents with tool use exhibit inconsistent behavior across independent runs from identical states, calling different tools, producing contradictory outputs, or pursuing divergent strategies. This variability compounds over time and undermines deployment reliability. Existing evaluation metrics primarily measure task correctness via completion-based scores and do not capture consistency in agent behavior across executions. Separately, agent behavior is analyzed either at the token level using probability distributions or at the single-response level using semantic clustering, but neither captures how inconsistency propagates across future turns of a trajectory. We introduce Recursive Semantic Divergence (RSD), an unsu
arXiv:2610.32322v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents retrieve skills from public hubs that hold up to about 100,000 entries and serve many models. As models improve, a hub must find the skills a given model has internalized, meaning it can do without them, and retire them for that model, yet internalization has not been measured with known reliability. Published rules that compare runs with and without a skill retire on the gain alone. The gain is near zero both for an internalized skill and when neither the model nor the skill delivers the capability, a state we call uncovered. We instead withhold the skill, score the model on a task synthesized from it, and trust a high unaided score only when another model gains from the skill, since nearly half of high scores come from tasks no m
arXiv:2610.32305v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-stage analytical tasks require LLM agents to use intermediate evidence to decide whether to continue, redirect or stop. Self-reflection, in which an agent critiques its output, is widely studied, yet a critique does not show whether evidence changed the next action. We call that capability self-restraint. Existing agent benchmarks largely measure task completion or output quality and leave it untested. DMAIC-Bench evaluates it with 97 seeded tasks across 15 industrial cases in four sectors, built around Lean Six Sigma's explicit statistical prerequisites. Paired counterfactual variants require opposite actions at the same workflow position, distinguishing warranted restraint from indiscriminate stopping. We assess execution traces with
arXiv:2610.33018v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scholarly Knowledge Graphs (SKGs) support literature search, scientific discovery, and agent-assisted research. Yet, most approaches to SKG construction pre-specify the knowledge unit to be represented, typically named scholarly entities or contribution-level statements, and retain only the publication content expressible through that unit. This choice produces two dominant yet distinct paradigms: concept-centric SKGs that preserve entities and local relations, and statement-centric SKGs that capture high-level discourse in sentences. In both cases, the graph reflects a chosen extraction target rather than how a paper constructs and communicates knowledge. We introduce SUDO, the Scholarly Upper Discourse Ontology, which defines how knowledge
arXiv:2610.32412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recursive large language model (LLM) agents solve long-horizon tasks through decomposition, execution, and environmental feedback. Yet after producing an atomic subtask, they often invoke the same large model again to translate a familiar instruction into an executable action. We observe that high-level planning is task-specific, whereas leaf-level action grounding recurs across tasks and can be checked against environment-admitted actions. We introduce LeafSkill, an external reuse layer that retrieves semantically related grounding experience, binds action templates to current objects and admissible actions, and uses a lightweight 1.7B selector to choose a bound action or defer the unchanged subtask to the original agent. Skills remain outsi
