Agent Cost Optimization: Cut Waste, Not Intelligence

This article reveals three major sources of waste in AI agent workflows — redundant context recomputation, outdated prompt patterns, and misallocated reasoning effort — and provides a systematic optimization framework with caching strategies, prompt auditing, effort calibration, and holdout-set validation, demonstrating 50–73% cost reductions without performance loss across benchmarks.

AgentLoop Data Flywheel 5: Auto-Mining Experience, Ablation Tests Cut Latency 30-40%

This article details AgentLoop's experience self-evolution: automatically mining success/failure patterns from agent run traces, injecting them via a recall skill, and using ablation experiments to optimize recall threshold (0.6), top-1 injection, context positioning, experience slimming, and guardrails—achieving 30-40% latency reduction, 20-47% cost reduction, and significant token/tool-call savings.

Dual‑Engine Evolution: A Systematic Survey of Long‑Horizon Agents

This 149‑page survey defines long‑horizon agents as a coupling of a base policy and a runtime harness (Agent = πθ ⊕ H), categorises task levels and capabilities, traces the field’s evolution from prompt to context to runtime engineering, and outlines a seven‑stage optimization pipeline, application forms, and frontier challenges, supported by empirical growth data and extensive references.
