This is old news! Agent-loops are not a model architechture

It broke new ground!

https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.04871 another recursive based model

Recursion is so popular in computing that this term “recursive language model” is heavily overloaded

It was even before the rise of LLMs

The authors may want to consider a more specific name

> Lastly, in our experiments we only consider a recursive depth of 1 — i.e. the root LM can only call LMs, not other RLMs. It is a relatively easy change to allow the REPL environment to call RLMs instead of LMs, but we felt that for most modern “long context” benchmarks, a recursive depth of 1 was sufficient to handle most problems. However, for future work and investigation into RLMs, enabling larger recursive depth will naturally lead to stronger and more interesting systems.

It feels a little disingenuous to call it a Recursive Language Model when the recursive depth of the study was only 1.

This isn't just context optimization. Not much different from agent-to-agent workflow IMO.
