ResearchPostgresFS vs. SQL skills: should AI agents fake a filesystem?
Can an AI agent use a database as if it were a filesystem? Arize compared a Postgres-backed filesystem abstraction with a SQL skill and found that locality, accuracy,… Aparna Dhinakaran Sufjan Fana June 11, 2026 12 min read -
ResearchWhat we learned testing 7 models under the same agent harness
Model swaps look like configuration changes, but they behave more like product migrations. A new model may be cheaper, faster, easier to get capacity for, or stronger on… Nancy Chauhan May 20, 2026 10 min read -
ResearchModels got an order of magnitude better at following instructions in one year
A year ago, frontier models started losing track of instructions somewhere around 200–300 simultaneous constraints. With 2026 models, that ceiling is closer to 2,000 — an order-of-magnitude jump.… Laurie Voss May 12, 2026 11 min read -
ResearchAgent harnesses have an expiration date
A benchmark-driven look at why agent harnesses need adaptive finish logic as model behavior changes across Claude, GPT-4o, and Gemma. RL Nabors May 7, 2026 11 min read -
ResearchMCP vs. CLI Skills for agents: what our eval found (and which you should use)
Twitter said pick a side. The eval said the question was wrong. Six months ago, MCP (model context protocol) was the hot new thing: tool usage with a… Laurie Voss May 1, 2026 10 min read -
