Online Video Agent Harness for Long Video Understanding

Long video understanding often behaves like a visual needle-in-a-haystack problem: query-relevant evidence is sparsely distributed across long temporal spans, while packing dense frames into a single VLM context incurs \textit{context rot} and high cost. Existing video agents often rely on query-agnostic offline preprocessing or ad hoc tool sets, which can miss query-specific details and waste computation. In this work, we present VideoXAgent, a purely online video-agent harness for long video understanding that starts from the given video file and user query, plans and decomposes the task, invokes specialized expert tools on demand, and aggregates multimodal evidence to produce a final answer while resolving conflicts among observations. To support this on-demand invocation, we design a suite of heterogeneous expert tools guided by a data-driven taxonomy of atomic capabilities, spanning scripts, VLMs, and domain models (e.g., detection, OCR, ASR, face recognition). The harness further enforces objective evidence prompting and budget-aware control to curb hallucination and non-termination. Across Video-MME-Long, LongVideoBench-Long, LVBench, and MINERVA, VideoXAgent is competitive with frontier LMMs and video agents under a smaller context footprint---about 50k tokens of agent context per sample, even on hour-long videos. In particular, on complex video-reasoning benchmarks such as MINERVA, it matches this level while using only about 15\% of the context of a 1,024-frame dense-packing baseline. Notably, the harness remains effective with a visually weak or even text-only orchestrator, suggesting that strong long-video understanding can emerge from progressive agentic evidence seeking rather than from packing the full video into a single context.

KV-Skill: Forging Expertise in the Model's Native Language

KV-Skill is introduced, a design space of external factorized operators that a frozen language model reads through a lightweight interface that shows that task knowledge can be acquired from text or experience, compressed into an external operator, and deployed separately from the backbone.

MOSS-VL Technical Report

We present MOSS-VL, an open vision-language model family that treats real-time interaction -- perceiving while it speaks -- as a first-class capability. It is co-designed across the stack: the language decoder attends to vision only through gated cross-attention, so the model can naturally see incoming frames while generating; a synthesized interaction corpus supervises when to speak, when to stay silent, and when to revise; and a staged curriculum concentrates all real-time-specific training in one light final stage over a strong offline foundation. Offline, MOSS-VL-Instruct is competitive at comparable scale and leads temporal-reasoning video sets. Across four streaming benchmarks, MOSS-VL-Realtime posts the best average on three (second on the fourth) among open-source streaming models, sweeping the three subsets that squarely test proactive behavior -- 66.0 vs. 37.5 for the best baseline on OmniMMI Proactive Alerting. With 11.3B parameters but visual tokens outside the decoded sequence, MOSS-VL widens its time-to-first-token advantage over same-backbone Qwen3-VL-8B from 2.8x to 5.1x as visual context grows. We release all five checkpoints, the training curriculum, and the real-time inference code at https://github.com/OpenMOSS/MOSS-VL.
