Infini-AI Lab open-sources Hermit, a framework for agent harness evolution and continual learning
BeidiChen · x · 2026-10-27
Infini-AI Lab open-sourced Hermit 🐚, a unified Apache-2.0 framework for training, evaluating, and deploying harness adapters.
Key points:
- Harness evolution lets agents continually improve how they work from experience — same model, same harness, better habits — framed as a building block for RSI and continual learning
- Supports running existing evolution methods or building your own through one standard interface, by evolving an external adapter layer
- Repo includes docs, examples, and recipe files referencing methods like gepa and skillopt
