The Agentic Scientist: Orchestrating Coding Agents for Automated Scientific (Co-)Discovery
Modern coding agents are fundamentally reshaping the role of human input for computational research: they write code, launch in silico experiments, analyze their results, and autonomously operate with ever-increasing time horizons. Despite these developments, fully autonomous research agents suffer from a limited ideation radius and myopic hill-climbing search dynamics. To bridge this gap, we introduce The Agentic Scientist, an end-to-end distributed pipeline for human researchers to conduct computational research alongside modern coding agents. Building on its predecessor, our system decomposes research into task drafting, idea generation, planning, sandboxed experimentation, result aggr...
