Infini-AI-Lab released Hermit, an Apache-2.0 framework enabling AI agents to learn continuously via a trainable 'Harness Adapter' without altering model weights. Using an RL loop and Git-based versioning for instructions and skills, it improved accuracy on CL-Bench and OfficeQA, though results rely on single runs and incur higher latency costs.

    • Core mechanism is the Harness Adapter: an external trainable layer of instructions, skills, memory, and tools that leaves model weights untouched.
    • Uses an RL-style loop: task execution -> judge scoring -> Evolver proposes new adapter version -> committed to Git.
    • Significant gains with trade-offs: GLM 5.3 Flash accuracy rose from 0.580 to 0.795 on CL-Bench, but at ~$0.16 cost and 7 minutes per question.
