Simon Yu ✈️ EMNLP2026(@simon_ycl):Recursive self-improvement needs agents that can build their own training environments. But researchers still part of the loop, making it hard to scale. We introduce AutoEnvScaling, which turns Data Flywheel into a terminal task: a proposer agent builds complete Harbor tasks and sandbox. It builds just like human researchers. This enables self-play RL for terminal agents: one model improves as both builder and solver, without human-in-the-loop.
