- What happened
- AlgoEvo is a framework where an autonomous agent dynamically discovers algorithms by inspecting, diagnosing, and editing code based on runtime feedback and accumulated experience.
- Why it matters
- Relevant for engineers working on automated algorithm design, optimization, or systems that need to adapt search strategies based on execution results and cross-task learning.
- Watch out
- Paper is recent preprint with limited external validation. Unclear how well the approach generalizes beyond the six benchmark tasks tested or performs on novel problem domains.

- Context Editing & Tool-Result Clearing
Each one covers how the technique works, when it earns its cost, and where it breaks.
