TabClaw: An Interactive and Self-Evolving Agent for Spreadsheet Manipulation and Table Reasoning

Spreadsheets and tables are widely used representations for structured data analysis, but effective analysis still requires substantial manual effort and domain expertise. Recent large language model (LLM) agents can automate parts of this process, but they often provide limited transparency into intermediate decisions, rely on implicit assumptions, struggle with multi-table comparison, and repeat similar workflows without adapting to a user's preferences. This paper presents TabClaw, an open-source interactive AI agent for spreadsheet manipulation and table reasoning. Users upload CSV or Excel files and issue natural-language requests; TabClaw clarifies ambiguous intent, exposes an editable execution plan, streams a ReAct-style tool-using analysis loop, dispatches specialist agents for parallel multi-table reasoning, and synthesizes findings with explicit consensus and uncertainty markers. Beyond one-off analysis, TabClaw records completed workflows, extracts persistent user memory, distills reusable skills from repeated tool-use patterns, supports package-style skill import, and upgrades skills from negative feedback. Experiments on spreadsheet manipulation and table reasoning benchmarks show that TabClaw improves executable task completion and reasoning performance while preserving an inspectable user workflow. This paper shows how TabClaw turns spreadsheets and tables into inspectable analytical workflows while gradually personalizing itself to recurring data-analysis tasks. Our code is available.

Claw-R1: A Step-Level Data Middleware System for Agentic Reinforcement Learning

Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) has become an important post-training paradigm for turning LLMs from static chatbots into interactive agents, giving rise to representative applications such as OpenClaw. Existing work mainly focuses on policy optimization algorithms and training frameworks, but pays less attention to the full data lifecycle of agent-environment interactions, from data production to training consumption. To bridge this gap, we present Claw-R1, an interactive step-level data middleware system for agentic RL. Claw-R1 connects heterogeneous agent runtimes with RL training backends through two core components: a Gateway Server and a Data Pool. The Gateway Server captures multi-turn interaction steps through a unified LLM API entry point, while the Data Pool organizes them into step-level records consisting of prompt IDs, response IDs, rewards and other metadata. In our demo, users can interactively inspect live trajectories, examine the state, action, and reward of each step, curate data by quality and readiness, and configure training-ready batches for different downstream RL algorithms. Overall, Claw-R1 treats agent interaction traces as managed data assets rather than temporary runtime logs. Through this demonstration, we hope to encourage the community to recognize the importance of data management in agentic RL.

GeoDecider: A Coarse-to-Fine Agentic Workflow for Explainable Lithology Classification

Lithology classification aims to infer subsurface rock types from well-logging signals, supporting downstream applications like reservoir characterization. Despite substantial progress, most existing methods still treat lithology classification as a single-pass classification task. In contrast, practical experts incorporate geological principles, external knowledge, and tool-use capabilities to perform accurate classification. In this work, we propose GeoDecider, a coarse-to-fine agentic workflow that enables accurate and explainable lithology classification through training-free use of large language models (LLMs). GeoDecider reformulates lithology classification as an expert-like structured process and organizes it into a multi-stage workflow involving coarse-to-fine reasoning. Specifically, GeoDecider includes the following stages: (1) base classifier-guided coarse classification, which uses a pre-trained classifier to provide a rough reference for downstream tasks, thus reducing the overall cost of downstream reasoning, (2) tool-augmented reasoning, which utilizes several tools such as contextual analysis and neighbor retrieval to achieve finer and more precise classifications, (3) geological refinement, which post-processes the final results to enforce geological consistency. Experiments on four benchmarks show that GeoDecider outperforms representative baselines. Further analysis demonstrates that the proposed framework produces geologically interpretable predictions while achieving a better trade-off between classification performance and inference efficiency.

GeoMind: An Agentic Workflow for Lithology Classification with Reasoned Tool Invocation

Lithology classification in well logs is a fundamental geoscience data mining task that aims to infer rock types from multi dimensional geophysical sequences. Despite recent progress, existing approaches typically formulate the problem as a static, single-step discriminative mapping. This static paradigm limits evidence-based diagnostic reasoning against geological standards, often yielding predictions that are detached from geological reality due to a lack of domain priors. In this work, we propose GeoMind, a tool-augmented agentic framework that models lithology classification as a sequential reasoning process. GeoMind organizes its toolkit into perception, reasoning, and analysis modules, which respectively translate raw logs into semantic trends, infer lithology hypotheses from multi-source evidence, and verify predictions against stratigraphic constraints. A global planner adaptively coordinates these modules based on input characteristics, enabling geologically plausible and evidence-grounded decisions. To guarantee the logical consistency of GeoMind, we introduce a fine-grained process supervision strategy. Unlike standard methods that focus solely on final outcomes, our approach optimizes intermediate reasoning steps, ensuring the validity of decision trajectories and alignment to geological constraints. Experiments on four benchmark well-log datasets demonstrate that GeoMind consistently outperforms strong baselines in classification performance while providing transparent and traceable decision-making processes.

StepPO: Step-Aligned Policy Optimization for Agentic Reinforcement Learning

General agents have given rise to phenomenal applications such as OpenClaw and Claude Code. As these agent systems (a.k.a. Harnesses) strive for bolder goals, they demand increasingly stronger agentic capabilities from foundation Large Language Models (LLMs). Agentic Reinforcement Learning (RL) is emerging as a central post-training paradigm for empowering LLMs with these capabilities and is playing an increasingly pivotal role in agent training. Unlike single-turn token-level alignment or reasoning enhancement, as in RLHF and RLVR, Agentic RL targets multi-turn interactive settings, where the goal is to optimize core agentic capabilities such as decision making and tool use while addressing new challenges including delayed and sparse rewards, as well as long and variable context. As a result, the token-centric modeling and optimization paradigm inherited from traditional LLM RL is becoming increasingly inadequate for capturing real LLM agent behavior. In this paper, we present StepPO as a position on step-level Agentic RL. We argue that the conventional token-level Markov Decision Process (MDP) should be advanced to a step-level MDP formulation, and that the step, rather than the token, should be regarded as the proper action representation for LLM agents. We then propose step-level credit assignment as the natural optimization counterpart of this formulation, thereby aligning policy optimization and reward propagation with the granularity of agent decisions. Finally, we discuss the key systems designs required to realize step-level Agentic RL in practice and preliminary experiments provide initial evidence for the effectiveness of this perspective. We hope that the step-aligned, step-level paradigm embodied in StepPO offers the Agentic RL community a useful lens for understanding agent behavior and helps advance LLMs toward stronger general-agent capabilities.

Cast-R1: Learning Tool-Augmented Sequential Decision Policies for Time Series Forecasting

Time series forecasting has long been dominated by model-centric approaches that formulate prediction as a single-pass mapping from historical observations to future values. Despite recent progress, such formulations often struggle in complex and evolving settings, largely because most forecasting models lack the ability to autonomously acquire informative evidence, reason about potential future changes, or revise predictions through iterative decision processes. In this work, we propose Cast-R1, a learned time series forecasting framework that reformulates forecasting as a sequential decision-making problem. Cast-R1 introduces a memory-based state management mechanism that maintains decision-relevant information across interaction steps, enabling the accumulation of contextual evidence to support long-horizon reasoning. Building on this formulation, forecasting is carried out through a tool-augmented agentic workflow, in which the agent autonomously interacts with a modular toolkit to extract statistical features, invoke lightweight forecasting models for decision support, perform reasoning-based prediction, and iteratively refine forecasts through self-reflection. To train Cast-R1, we adopt a two-stage learning strategy that combines supervised fine-tuning with multi-turn reinforcement learning, together with a curriculum learning scheme that progressively increases task difficulty to improve policy learning. Extensive experiments on multiple real-world time series datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of Cast-R1. We hope this work provides a practical step towards further exploration of agentic paradigms for time series modeling. Our code is available at https://github.com/Xiaoyu-Tao/Cast-R1-TS.

AnomaMind: Agentic Time Series Anomaly Detection with Tool-Augmented Reasoning

Time series anomaly detection is critical in many real-world applications, where effective solutions must localize anomalous regions and support reliable decision-making under complex settings. However, most existing methods frame anomaly detection as a purely discriminative prediction task with fixed feature inputs, rather than an evidence-driven diagnostic process. As a result, they often struggle when anomalies exhibit strong context dependence or diverse patterns. We argue that these limitations stem from the lack of adaptive feature preparation, reasoning-aware detection, and iterative refinement during inference. To address these challenges, we propose AnomaMind, an agentic time series anomaly detection framework that reformulates anomaly detection as a sequential decision-making process. AnomaMind operates through a structured workflow that progressively localizes anomalous intervals in a coarse-to-fine manner, augments detection through multi-turn tool interactions for adaptive feature preparation, and refines anomaly decisions via self-reflection. The workflow is supported by a set of reusable tool engines, enabling context-aware diagnostic analysis. A key design of AnomaMind is an explicitly designed hybrid inference mechanism for tool-augmented anomaly detection. In this mechanism, general-purpose models are responsible for autonomous tool interaction and self-reflective refinement, while core anomaly detection decisions are learned through reinforcement learning under verifiable workflow-level feedback, enabling task-specific optimization within a flexible reasoning framework. Extensive experiments across diverse settings demonstrate that AnomaMind consistently improves anomaly detection performance. The code is available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/AnomaMind.

KuaiSearch: A Large-Scale E-Commerce Search Dataset for Recall, Ranking, and Relevance

E-commerce search serves as a central interface, connecting user demands with massive product inventories and plays a vital role in our daily lives. However, in real-world applications, it faces challenges, including highly ambiguous queries, noisy product texts with weak semantic order, and diverse user preferences, all of which make it difficult to accurately capture user intent and fine-grained product semantics. In recent years, significant advances in large language models (LLMs) for semantic representation and contextual reasoning have created new opportunities to address these challenges. Nevertheless, existing e-commerce search datasets still suffer from notable limitations: queries are often heuristically constructed, cold-start users and long-tail products are filtered out, query and product texts are anonymized, and most datasets cover only a single stage of the search pipeline. Collectively, these issues constrain research on LLM-based e-commerce search. To address these challenges, we construct and release KuaiSearch. To the best of our knowledge, it is the largest e-commerce search dataset currently available. KuaiSearch is built upon real user search interactions from the Kuaishou platform, preserving authentic user queries and natural-language product texts, covering cold-start users and long-tail products, and systematically spanning three key stages of the search pipeline: recall, ranking, and relevance judgment. We conduct a comprehensive analysis of KuaiSearch from multiple perspectives, including products, users, and queries, and establish benchmark experiments across several representative search tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that KuaiSearch provides a valuable foundation for research on real-world e-commerce search.

CoGenCast: A Coupled Autoregressive-Flow Generative Framework for Time Series Forecasting

Time series forecasting can be viewed as a generative problem that requires both semantic understanding over contextual conditions and stochastic modeling of continuous temporal dynamics. Existing approaches typically rely on either autoregressive large language models (LLMs) for semantic context modeling or diffusion-like models for continuous probabilistic generation. However, neither method alone can adequately model both aspects simultaneously. In this work, we propose CoGenCast, a hybrid generative framework that couples pre-trained LLMs with flow-matching mechanism for effective time series forecasting. Specifically, we reconfigure pre-trained decoder-only LLMs into a native forecasting encoder-decoder backbone by modifying only the attention topology, enabling bidirectional context encoding and causal representation generation. Building on this, a flow-matching mechanism is further integrated to model temporal evolution, capturing continuous stochastic dynamics conditioned on the autoregressively generated representation. Notably, CoGenCast naturally supports multimodal forecasting and cross-domain unified training. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmarks show that CoGenCast consistently outperforms previous compared baselines. Code is available at https://github.com/liuyaguo/_CoGenCast.

MemCast: Memory-Driven Time Series Forecasting with Experience-Conditioned Reasoning

Time series forecasting (TSF) plays a critical role in decision-making for many real-world applications. Recently, LLM-based forecasters have made promising advancements. Despite their effectiveness, existing methods often lack explicit experience accumulation and continual evolution. In this work, we propose MemCast, a learning-to-memory framework that reformulates TSF as an experience-conditioned reasoning task. Specifically, we learn experience from the training set and organize it into a hierarchical memory. This is achieved by summarizing prediction results into historical patterns, distilling inference trajectories into reasoning wisdom, and inducing extracted temporal features into general laws. Furthermore, during inference, we leverage historical patterns to guide the reasoning process and utilize reasoning wisdom to select better trajectories, while general laws serve as criteria for reflective iteration. Additionally, to enable continual evolution, we design a dynamic confidence adaptation strategy that updates the confidence of individual entries without leaking the test set distribution. Extensive experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate that MemCast consistently outperforms previous methods, validating the effectiveness of our approach.
