Static "human data" faces inherent limitations: it is expensive to scale and bounded by the knowledge of its creators. Continuous learning from "experience data" - interactions between agents and their environments - promises to transcend these barriers. Today, the widespread deployment of AI agents grants us low-cost access to massive streams of such real-world experience. However, raw interaction logs are inherently noisy, filled with trial-and-error and low information density, rendering them inefficient for direct model training. We introduce Echo, a generalized framework designed to operationalize the transition from raw experience to learnable knowledge, effectively "echoing" environmental feedback back into the training loop for model optimization. In today's agent ecosystem, user refinement serves as a primary source of such feedback: driven by responsibility for the outcome, users rigorously transform flawed agent proposals into verified solutions. These user-driven refinement sequences inherently distill agents' crude attempts into high-quality training signals. Echo systematically harvests these signals to continuously align the agent with real-world needs. Large-scale validation in a production code completion environment confirms that Echo effectively harnesses this pipeline, breaking the static performance ceiling by increasing the acceptance rate from 25.7% to 35.7%.

Dynamic community detection methods often lack effective mechanisms to ensure temporal consistency, hindering the analysis of network evolution. In this paper, we propose a novel deep graph clustering framework with temporal consistency regularization on inter-community structures, inspired by the concept of minimal network topological changes within short intervals. Specifically, to address the representation collapse problem, we first introduce MFC, a matrix factorization-based deep graph clustering algorithm that preserves node embedding. Based on static clustering results, we construct probabilistic community networks and compute their persistence homology, a robust topological measure, to assess structural similarity between them. Moreover, a novel neural network regularization TopoReg is introduced to ensure the preservation of topological similarity between inter-community structures over time intervals. Our approach enhances temporal consistency and clustering accuracy on real-world datasets with both fixed and varying numbers of communities. It is also a pioneer application of TDA in temporally persistent community detection, offering an insightful contribution to field of network analysis.
