EurekAgent: Environment Engineering as the Key Bottleneck for Autonomous Scientific Discovery

EurekAgent is a new LLM-based agent system that reframes autonomous scientific discovery around 'environment engineering' — designing the resources, constraints, and interfaces that shape agent behavior — rather than prescribing agent workflows. The system engineers four dimensions: permissions, artifact management (filesystem/Git), budget awareness, and human-in-the-loop oversight. It achieves state-of-the-art results on mathematics, kernel engineering, and ML tasks, including new 26-circle packing results at under $11 in API cost, and is fully open-sourced.
