FAQPage Schema

How do I diagnose GAIA benchmark trajectory gaps to improve my agent's score?▼

To diagnose GAIA trajectory gaps, map your agent's failure modes to actionable interventions using a structured playbook. This identifies missing capabilities in multi-hop tasks and provides specific tooling patterns to drive score improvement.

What is the best way to structure a TOOL_SPEC.md for GAIA multi-hop tasks?▼

The best way to structure a TOOL_SPEC.md for GAIA tasks is using frontmatter-driven templates. These templates coordinate with reference materials to standardize tool-shape design and ensure consistent harness configurations.

How do GAIA failure modes map to specific tooling patterns and harness configurations?▼

GAIA failure modes map to specific tooling patterns through categorized trajectory analysis. By identifying distinct failure clusters, you apply targeted HarnessX levers like config, control, action, and instruction adjustments to correct agent behavior.

Can I use HarnessX levers to improve agent performance across different GAIA clusters?▼

Yes, you can use HarnessX levers to improve agent performance across GAIA clusters. Adjusting config, control, action, and instruction parameters provides targeted interventions that address specific trajectory gaps and drive score improvements.

Why does my GAIA benchmark agent fail on multi-hop tasks despite having the right tools?▼

Your GAIA agent may fail multi-hop tasks due to unmapped failure modes in trajectory analysis. Even with correct tools, misaligned instruction patterns or improper harness configurations prevent successful multi-step reasoning and task completion.
