CORVUS: Context Optimization and Reduction Via Underlying Synchronization for LLM Coding Agents

LLM coding agents operate by constructing trajectories that accumulate reasoning, tool calls, and results to enable multi-step decision-making. However, the conventional append-only trajectory architecture found in practice tightly couples file-read actions with their observations, capturing snapshots that become permanently fixed in the chronological history. As files change through agent edits or concurrent human modifications, these snapshots become stale, causing reasoning errors and causing agents to redundantly re-read files, with each re-read appending yet another copy to the trajectory. To mitigate this, we propose CORVUS, a novel trajectory architecture that decouples file-read actions from their observations by maintaining a synchronized registry of relevant files and injecting only their current contents at each reasoning cycle. This structural change produces significantly lighter-weight trajectories that remain synchronized with the actual codebase state by construction, eliminating redundant file copies and stale snapshots that bloat conventional trajectories. We evaluated CORVUS on SWE- POLYBENCH_VERIFIED and SWE-BENCH PRO across four LLMs, achieving 9-50% reduction in average input tokens per task, 15-32% shorter final prompts, and up to 37% fewer reasoning cycles while maintaining comparable pass rates.

TRAJEVAL: Decomposing Code Agent Trajectories for Fine-Grained Diagnosis

Code agents can autonomously resolve GitHub issues, yet when they fail, current evaluation provides no visibility into where or why. Metrics such as Pass@1 collapse an entire execution into a single binary outcome, making it difficult to identify where and why the agent went wrong. To address this limitation, we introduce TRAJEVAL, a diagnostic framework that decomposes agent trajectories into three interpretable stages: search (file localization), read (function comprehension), and edit (modification targeting). For each stage, we compute precision and recall by comparing against reference patches. Analyzing 16,758 trajectories across three agent architectures and seven models, we find universal inefficiencies (all agents examine approximately 22x more functions than necessary) yet distinct failure modes: GPT-5 locates relevant code but targets edits incorrectly, while Qwen-32B fails at file discovery entirely. We validate that these diagnostics are predictive, achieving model-level Pass@1 prediction within 0.87-2.1% MAE, and actionable: real-time feedback based on trajectory signals improves two state-of-the-art models by 2.2-4.6 percentage points while reducing costs by 20-31%. These results demonstrate that our framework not only provides a more fine-grained analysis of agent behavior, but also translates diagnostic signals into tangible performance gains. More broadly, TRAJEVAL transforms agent evaluation beyond outcome-based benchmarking toward mechanism-driven diagnosis of agent success and failure.

TC-GS: A Faster Gaussian Splatting Module Utilizing Tensor Cores

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) renders pixels by rasterizing Gaussian primitives, where conditional alpha-blending dominates the time cost in the rendering pipeline. This paper proposes TC-GS, an algorithm-independent universal module that expands Tensor Core (TCU) applicability for 3DGS, leading to substantial speedups and seamless integration into existing 3DGS optimization frameworks. The key innovation lies in mapping alpha computation to matrix multiplication, fully utilizing otherwise idle TCUs in existing 3DGS implementations. TC-GS provides plug-and-play acceleration for existing top-tier acceleration algorithms tightly coupled with rendering pipeline designs, like Gaussian compression and redundancy elimination algorithms. Additionally, we introduce a global-to-local coordinate transformation to mitigate rounding errors from quadratic terms of pixel coordinates caused by Tensor Core half-precision computation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method maintains rendering quality while providing an additional 2.18x speedup over existing Gaussian acceleration algorithms, thus reaching up to a total 5.6x acceleration.
