Modality-Driven Search with Holistic Trace Judging for ARC-AGI-2

Large language models can produce fluent, internally coherent reasoning traces for abstract reasoning tasks while still being confidently wrong - making selection among candidates, not just generation, the central challenge. I present a solver for ARC-AGI-2, a few-shot visual reasoning benchmark, built around two principles: (i) treating reasoning modalities as search operators, generating diverse candidates independently across text, image, and code channels, and (ii) context-preserving holistic judging, in which a judge model jointly compares all candidate reasoning traces within a single long-context prompt. Unlike self-consistency or majority voting, this approach reliably recovers co...
