A Lab Agent Kept the Corrections With the Protocol
LabAgent recorded executable skills and corrective experience, reproduced a published figure and led tested generalist agents in four life-science domains.
Summary
LabAgent recorded executable skills and corrective experience, reproduced a published figure and led tested generalist agents in four life-science domains.
When students leave a lab, tacit fixes and fragile procedures can disappear with them. LabAgent packages methods as executable, verifiable skills and records corrections so later attempts can avoid the same failure. The authors applied it to drug-property prediction, biomedical analysis, protein-variant effects and statistical genetics, reporting first place over tested commercial generalist agents in each domain and successful reproduction of a published figure. The evaluation supports institutional memory as an agent design goal, but broad scientific reliability still depends on transparent protocols and independent reproduction.
