Prime Agent: Self-coding framework hits 95.5% on ARC-AGI 3
aigclink · x · 2026-08-26
Prime Agent is an agent framework where the model manages its own scaffolding, achieving 95.5% on ARC-AGI 3 (beating human experts).
Key Mechanics:
- Persistent REPL: Replaces conversation turns with a persistent IPython kernel, allowing variables to survive across turns and treating code as action.
- Async Sub-agents: Sub-agents function as async calls, enabling parallel dispatch, background running, and reusability.
- Self-Evolution: Prompts, skills, and memories are treated as CRUD components, refined via a /refine mechanism to沉淀 experience.
- Engineering: Features session persistence, crash recovery, budget control, and unattended long-task execution.
