New Evaluation Infrastructure Targets the Cost of Actually Running Agentic Benchmarks
Harbor Adapters offers a unified harness across agentic benchmarks and ships with Harbor-Index, a curated meta-dataset, addressing the environment and integration overhead that keeps most agent evaluations from being reproduced.
A preprint posted to arXiv introduces Harbor Adapters, a unified evaluation infrastructure for agentic benchmarks, together with Harbor-Index, a curated meta-dataset assembled across them. The problem motivating it is mundane and expensive:…

Oversight and Evaluation Lag Accelerating AI Capabilities
Over the next 3-6 months, evidence mounts that governance, evaluation, and agent-safety methods are failing to keep pace with capability growth, driving investment in interpretability, agent-manipulation benchmarks, and institutional-reform proposals.
