Build real agentic apps using CUGA: two dozen working examples on a lightweight harness

Which summary reads better? Pick one — models revealed after.Both summaries are AI-generated.

Summary A

CUGA, an open-source agent harness from IBM, simplifies building agentic applications by handling planning, execution, and state management, allowing developers to focus on defining tools and prompts. CUGA has been used to create two dozen working examples of single-file agentic apps, demonstrating its versatility and ease of use. These examples show how the same agent code can be used in different environments, from development to production.

What you'll learn · Jun 24, 2026 · 6 stories

  1. 1.Two dozen single-file FastAPI examples show CUGA can reduce agent plumbing to tool lists and prompts while preserving state, guardrails, and production governance.
  2. 2.45 agentic systems tested show graph-based dynamic red-teaming can compare heterogeneous agent architectures and mitigation strategies through automated discovery, adaptive scanning, and evaluation reports.
  3. 3.ADE@3s fell from 0.54 to 0.26 with eight cameras, making planner-instrumented rule traces useful supervision for driving VLAs when rule-based planners exist.
  4. 4.Local RLM-based debugging may help teams inspect AI agent traces directly in their own environment.
  5. 5.Modelplane offers an open source control plane for AI inference, giving production teams a component to evaluate for standardizing inference management.
  6. 6.Shared evaluation frameworks and safety practices through the Appia Foundation could make advanced AI deployments easier to compare and coordinate globally.

RIFT-Bench: Dynamic Red-teaming For Agentic AI Systems

Which summary reads better? Pick one — models revealed after.Both summaries are AI-generated.

Summary A

Researchers have introduced RIFT-Bench, a new graph-based methodology designed to perform dynamic red-teaming and security evaluations for agentic AI systems. The automated framework operates in two distinct phases, starting with discovering system structures and followed by deploying adaptive adversarial attacks to detect vulnerabilities. Tested across 45 different agentic systems, the approach effectively generalizes across diverse architectures and supports the direct evaluation of mitigation strategies.

Neuro-Symbolic Drive: Rule-Grounded Faithful Reasoning for Driving VLAs

Which summary reads better? Pick one — models revealed after.Both summaries are AI-generated.

Summary A

Researchers have developed Neuro-Symbolic Drive, a neuro-symbolic driving framework that uses rule-grounded reasoning to improve the decision-making of driving models. The framework supervises a driving VLA with reasoning traces extracted from classical rule-based planners, ensuring reasoning is structurally coupled to motion generation. This approach has been shown to improve driving performance on a simulator-generated benchmark.
