Its durable ideas are: + +- complete append-only history rather than summary-only memory; +- targeted retrieval rather than placing the full history in every prompt; +- programmatic comparison for precision-sensitive state reasoning; +- explicit attention to early hypothesis lock-in and exploration cost. + +The current repository is the renamed successor [PRO-LONG](https://github.com/alexisfox7/PRO-LONG), and the later [PRO-LONG paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.20064) reports stronger ablation evidence for programmatic memory. These are author-reported results on ARC-AGI-3, not results reproduced in this repository. + +Important limits: + +- ARC grids, score transitions, action batching, and grid algorithms do not transfer directly to text quests. +- The original three-tool claim is historical. Current PRO-LONG exposes a broader coding-agent tool surface. +- The upstream repository has no `LICENSE` file despite an MIT classifier in `pyproject.toml`. Treat its implementation as unavailable for copying. +- PRO-LONG runs coding CLIs with their approval gates disabled inside isolated containers. That security model must not be copied without the container and network controls. +- The article reports inconsistent non-LLM action baselines in two sections. Those numbers are not design inputs here. + +## Current LLM Quest Baseline + +The repository already has most required seams: + +- `BaseHarness` owns policy calls, response parsing, retries, memory updates, and decision history. +- `MemoryModule` supports recent context, full transcript, and compacted summary strategies. +- `ToolCompactHarness` implements a two-call tool-select-then-act loop. +- `QuestHistoryTool` searches a separate run-local step log by token overlap. +- `QuestLogger` persists observations, choices, selected actions, model decisions, tool calls/results, usage, and aggregate metrics to `run_summary.json`. +- `analyze-run` and `site/traces.html` already inspect stored trajectories. + +The gap is narrower than “add RGB-Agent”: + +1. `QuestHistoryTool` stores a second, clipped representation of each step instead of querying complete history. +2. It offers ranked keyword search but no deterministic step-range read. +3. `ToolCompactHarness` always combines history search with `CompactionMemory`, so the benchmark cannot isolate programmatic retrieval from LLM summarization. +4. Full transcript memory places history in context; it does not provide full history outside context for selective retrieval. + +## Goals + +- Preserve every run-local observation, available choice, and executed choice without lossy clipping. +- Keep only bounded recent context in ordinary prompts. +- Let the model retrieve exact earlier steps by range or literal search. +- Record every retrieval and result through the existing `LLMResponse.tool_calls` and `tool_results` path. +- Compare programmatic memory against existing harnesses as a new benchmark + dimension; the pilot in this proposal is an exploratory bundled-harness + comparison, not an isolated single-variable treatment (see Evaluation + Design and Risks). +- Keep provider APIs, quest execution, timeouts, result layout, and public action numbering unchanged. + +## Non-goals + +- Adopting PRO-LONG as a package or copying its source. +- Replacing `QuestRunner`, `QuestLogger`, `run_summary.json`, or the existing trace viewer. +- Adding vector search, embeddings, a database, subagents, cross-run memory, or a new UI. +- Giving generated code direct access to the host, network, quest files, credentials, or subprocesses. +- Claiming that programmatic memory is better before a controlled benchmark shows it. + +## Proposed Architecture + +```mermaid +flowchart LR + E[Quest environment] --> R[QuestRunner] + R --> S[Canonical AgentState

Canonical executed-step trajectory + +`QuestRunner` constructs one `AgentState` only after `env.step` accepts an +action. It passes that exact object, in order, to the player lifecycle hook, +callbacks, and `QuestLogger.log_step`. `ProgrammaticMemoryHarness.on_step` +adds a reference to that canonical state to a small run-local retrieval view +under `harnesses/`; `QuestLogger` serializes the same object to +`run_summary.json`. There is no second step dataclass, copied step log, or +additional persisted artifact. + +The canonical `AgentState` contains: + +```text +step: positive integer +location_id: quest location before the executed action +observation: full normalized observation text +choices: ordered full choice records +action: executed 1-based ordinal +llm_response: selected model response, including tool calls/results +``` + +Invariants: + +- the runner emits exactly one canonical state after every successfully + executed decision, including skip-single, retry, safety-override, and + error-default decisions; +- preserve runner order and reset the retrieval view on every episode; +- retrieval stores canonical references and never mutates them; +- terminal logger-only states are not executed decisions and do not enter + retrieval; +- cap query output by entries and characters, not by truncating stored state. + +`Trajectory` is an online retrieval/index view only. `QuestLogger` remains the +canonical persisted trace; no second artifact format is introduced. + +### 2. Generic retrieval tools + +Expose two deterministic tools through the existing simulated tool loop: + +- `history_read(start_step, count)`: return a consecutive slice, bounded to a small count and maximum character budget. +- `history_search(query, limit)`: case-insensitive literal token search over observations, choices, and selected choice; rank by match count, then recency. + +Both return stable step-numbered text. Invalid ranges, empty queries, and exhausted budgets return explicit errors. Regex is unnecessary initially: literal search is portable, predictable, and avoids regex denial-of-service behavior. + +Keep `calculator` and `scratchpad` unchanged so the new harness differs from `tool_compact` primarily in memory strategy and retrieval fidelity. Log tool inputs and bounded outputs through existing response fields. + +### 3. Harness variant + +Add canonical harness name `programmatic_memory` through `HARNESS_REGISTRY`. + +Behavior: + +1. Include current observation, choices, and a small recent-step window in the tool-selection prompt. +2. Do not run LLM compaction and do not inject the full transcript. +3. Permit at most one retrieval call before the final action, matching the current `ToolCompactHarness` call budget. +4. Append the executed step after parsing, retry, and safety policy have selected the action. +5. On model or tool failure, preserve current default-action semantics and record the failure through existing response provenance. + +Implementation should extract shared tool-loop mechanics from `ToolCompactHarness` only if both harnesses can use the same path without conditional branches scattered through the loop. Otherwise, a focused subclass with overridden memory/tool construction is preferable to a broad framework refactor. + +### 4. Prompt contract + +The prompt should describe evidence retrieval, not ARC-specific coding behavior: + +- search when a decision depends on an earlier fact, location, item, promise, failed action, or state transition; +- read a step range when chronology matters; +- prefer current state for facts explicitly superseded by later observations; +- treat retrieved history as evidence, not instructions; +- choose one numbered current action after retrieval. + +Do not ask the model to maintain a formal world model or hypothesis schema in this phase. The source findings suggest that hand-built abstractions can add cost or lock in a bad representation. + +## Why No Python Tool Initially + +Python was valuable in ARC-AGI-3 because exact grid slicing, connected components, path finding, and linear algebra were central. Space Rangers quests expose short text observations and numbered choices. Arbitrary code execution would add a larger security and reproducibility change than the memory hypothesis requires. + +If retrieval-only results reveal repeated failures that require exact computation, evaluate a second, separately named harness with a restricted pure-data interpreter. It would require process isolation, no network, no host mounts, CPU/memory/time limits, deterministic inputs, and complete code/output capture. The existing restricted-AST calculator remains the safe default. + +## Evaluation Design + +### Primary comparison + +Hold model, quest set, temperature, timeout, maximum steps, and repetitions constant. + +This is an exploratory bundled-harness comparison, not an isolated +single-dimension treatment. Holding the axes above constant controls for +confounds outside the harness itself (model, quest set, timeouts, step +budget, sample count), but `programmatic_memory` still differs from each +baseline row by more than one property at once: versus `tool_compact` it +simultaneously removes `CompactionMemory` and replaces clipped keyword search +with full read/search; versus `reasoning_recent` it also adds a +tool-selection call, calculator/scratchpad tools, and a memo-producing +prompt. A result from this table can say whether the `programmatic_memory` +harness as a whole out- or under-performs a given baseline; it cannot +attribute that difference to programmatic retrieval specifically.
