The evolution of Large Language Models (LLMs) from passive responders to autonomous agents necessitates a fundamental shift in learning paradigms -- from static imitation to incentive-driven decision making. However, this transition is significantly impeded by the lack of scalable infrastructure capable of constructing high-quality interaction signals for effective policy learning. To address this, we introduce a comprehensive method designed to systematically scale the diversity and complexity of interactive environments. Our method realizes this scaling by addressing three orthogonal dimensions: (1) Complexity: NexAU, a flexible agent framework that supports building complex agent hierarchies via simple configurations; (2) Diversity: NexA4A automatically generates diverse agent hierarchies from natural language to cover infinite domains; and (3) Fidelity: NexGAP bridges the simulation-reality gap by integrating dynamic real-world environment for grounded trajectories synthesis. We train Nex-N1 upon the diverse and complex interactive environments established by our infrastructure. Empirical results on benchmarks such as SWE-bench and tau2 demonstrate that Nex-N1 consistently outperforms SOTA open-source models and achieves competitive performance against frontier proprietary models on complex agentic tasks. We open-source the Nex ecosystem and model weights to facilitate further research.

Source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) provides a practical solution to cross-subject EEG decoding by adapting source-pretrained models to unlabeled target domains without accessing source data. However, existing SFDA methods rely solely on the limited internal knowledge of source-pretrained models, leading to inferior cross-domain generalization and unreliable pseudo-labels. Although EEG Foundation Models (FMs) pretrained on large-scale data exhibit strong generalizability, their potential in SFDA remains largely unexplored. To this end, we propose FUSED, a Foundation-guided Source-free EEG Decoding framework that integrates a large-scale FM with a compact Specialist Model (SM) via dual-branch co-adaptation. Specifically, we introduce a Co-adaptation mechanism equipping both branches with linear and prototype views, enabling cross-branch pseudo-label generation. Additionally, we design a Consensus Filtering Mechanism that exploits the FM's inherent stability to identify high-quality samples, along with a Two-Stage Pseudo-Label Refinement scheme to suppress error accumulation through cross-branch arbitration. Finally, we calibrate the FM's decision boundaries via mutual information maximization with the SM, followed by knowledge distillation from FM to SM, forming a principled calibrate-then-distill pipeline. To our knowledge, FUSED is the first work to leverage EEG FMs within the SFDA framework for cross-subject EEG decoding. Extensive experiments across three EEG paradigms, including motor imagery, emotion recognition, and SSVEP, demonstrate consistent state-of-the-art performance, validating the effectiveness of foundation-guided synergy for robust and privacy-preserving EEG decoding.

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has recently unlocked strong reasoning capabilities in large language models (LLMs), triggering rapid exploration of new algorithms and data. However, RLVR training is notoriously inefficient: long-tailed rollouts, tool-induced stalls, and asymmetric resource requirements between rollout and training introduce substantial idle time that cannot be eliminated by job-local optimizations such as synchronous pipelining, asynchronous rollout, or colocated execution. We argue that this inefficiency is structural. While idle gaps are unavoidable within individual RLVR jobs, they are largely anti-correlated across jobs and therefore exploitable at the cluster level. Leveraging this observation, we present PlexRL, a cluster-level runtime for multiplexing unified LLM services across RLVR jobs. By centrally managing model placement, state transitions, and function-level scheduling under strict affinity constraints, PlexRL time-slices LLM execution across jobs to fill otherwise idle periods without expensive model migration. Our implementation and evaluations demonstrate that PlexRL significantly improves effective cluster capacity and reduces user GPU hour cost by maximum 37.58% while preserving algorithmic flexibility and introducing minimal per-job overhead.
