srchvrs · x · 2026-09-08
Alibaba's Erkang Zhu delivered the DASHSys 2026 keynote at VLDB, drawing on QwenPaw (34.7k GitHub stars) to share harness-architecture lessons for agent apps: give the model code plus a few tools that accept it, and surf the jagged frontier rather than relying on evals/fine-tuning. Slides include PR stats for QwenPaw, OpenClaw, and Hermes Agent.
