MUSE: A Unified Agentic Harness for MLLMs
Despite rapid progress, multimodal large language models (MLLMs) still fail on tasks that humans solve effortlessly, such as navigating a grid maze from a screenshot or selecting the correct puzzle piece. Rather than retraining the model, we ask a complementary question: how much capability can be elicited from a frozen MLLM purely by improving the execution scaffold around it? We introduce MUSE, a multimodal unified structured execution harness that wraps any off-the-shelf MLLM with composable modules for task representation, visual processing, perception tool use, structured parsing, deterministic verification, and verifier-guided repair, without any model retraining. We evaluate MUSE a...
