Local-first autonomous research system implementing a Git-like research protocol for long-running scientific discovery; explores competing explanations, executes experiments inside an isolation boundary, self-criticizes results, and exports the entire path as typed Agent-Native Research Artifacts (ARA) with exploration DAGs, claim-to-evidence anchors, content hashes, and re-execution hooks (126+ stars, Apache 2.0, arXiv 2026)

Modular framework for AI-driven scientific and algorithmic discovery, providing a unified interface for implementing, running, and fairly comparing discovery algorithms across 200+ optimization tasks; introduces AdaEvolve and EvoX adaptive/evolutionary algorithms and natively supports OpenEvolve, GEPA, and Harbor-format benchmarks (skydiscover-ai, 568+ stars, Apache 2.0, 2026)

Democratizing AI scientists by transforming any LLM into research systems with 600+ scientific tools (Harvard MIMS)

Robust, lightweight infrastructure for multi-agent autonomous self-evolution, built for autoresearch; agents run in isolated git worktrees, share knowledge through a common state directory, and are scored by a grader daemon; natively integrated with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent, OpenCode, and Kiro (672+ stars, Apache 2.0)

Language agent gymnasium for challenging scientific tasks including DNA manipulation, literature search, and protein engineering

Principle-first scientific idea discovery framework that extracts reusable principles from public literature and private research materials, composes them into traceable Idea Cards with prior-art comparisons, and exports validation-ready research packs; emphasizes inspectable scientific objects, risk disclosure, and falsification paths (ICML 2026, 411+ stars, MIT License)

Self-evolving AI scientist with 6 specialized sub-agents (plan/research/code/debug/analyze/write) and persistent memory, #1 on DeepResearch Bench II and AstaBench, supporting multi-provider LLMs and multi-channel deployment (Apache 2.0, 2026)

Generalist autonomous research agent that grows a hypothesis tree to optimize any measurable task, beating Claude Code and Codex by 2.5× on the same compute budget across BrowseComp, Terminal-Bench 2.0, math reasoning, and MLE-Bench Lite; supports native CLI, keyless Claude Code/Codex integration, and an MCP tool server (RUC-NLPIR, 866+ stars, Apache 2.0, 2026)

Open-source implementation of AlphaEvolve's evolutionary coding agent paradigm, enabling LLMs to autonomously discover and optimize algorithms through iterative evolution, matching the approach behind DeepMind's breakthrough matrix multiplication discovery (6.2K+ stars, 2025)

Foundational auto-research agent framework for agentic science at scale, providing modular agent construction, run-level self-evolution, and multiple SciMaster domain agents (ML-Master, X-Master, Browse-Master); outperforms general-purpose agents across authoritative benchmarks including the OpenAI Frontier Science Benchmark (206+ stars, Apache 2.0, 2026)

FutureHouse's end-to-end scientific discovery multi-agent system orchestrating literature search (Crow/Falcon) and data analysis (Finch) agents, first AI-generated drug discovery identifying ripasudil as novel dry AMD therapeutic (2025)

End-to-end semi-automated scientific discovery system that designs, iterates, and analyzes code-based experiments via LLM-as-a-mutator over scientific articles and code examples; auto-creates, runs, and debugs experiment code in containers and writes meta-analysis reports (339+ stars, Apache 2.0)

Autonomous multi-agent research loop for model architecture discovery that ran 1,773 experiments over 20,000 GPU hours and produced 106 state-of-the-art linear-attention architectures, surpassing human-designed baselines including Mamba2 and DeltaNet (1.1K+ stars, Apache 2.0)
