Paper summary
AEvo separates the iterative self-improvement loop into two roles: a candidate-proposer that generates the next attempt, and a meta-agent that observes traces and edits the procedure used to propose future candidates. Past runs (candidates, feedback, traces, failures) function as memory the meta-agent reads from when revising the procedure. AEvo reports a 26% relative gain over the strongest evolution baseline on agentic and reasoning benchmarks, and SOTA on three open-ended optimization tasks under the same iteration budget. The work demonstrates one way to operationalize accumulated agentic search logs as input to procedure-level updates rather than discarding them after each run.
