As large language models (LLMs) advance their mathematical capabilities toward the IMO level, the scarcity of challenging, high-quality problems for training and evaluation has become a significant bottleneck. Simultaneously, recent code agents have demonstrated sophisticated skills in agentic coding and reasoning, suggesting that code execution can serve as a scalable environment for mathematical experimentation. In this paper, we investigate the potential of code agents to autonomously evolve existing math problems into more complex variations. We introduce a multi-agent framework designed to perform problem evolution while validating the solvability and increased difficulty of the generated problems. Our experiments demonstrate that, given sufficient test-time exploration, code agents can synthesize new, solvable problems that are structurally distinct from and more challenging than the originals. This work provides empirical evidence that code-driven agents can serve as a viable mechanism for synthesizing high-difficulty mathematical reasoning problems within scalable computational environments.

Visual content creation tasks demand a nuanced understanding of design conventions and creative workflows-capabilities challenging for general models, while workflow-based agents lack specialized knowledge for autonomous creative planning. To overcome these challenges, we propose VisionCreator, a native visual-generation agentic model that unifies Understanding, Thinking, Planning, and Creation (UTPC) capabilities within an end-to-end learnable framework. Our work introduces four key contributions: (i) VisGenData-4k and its construction methodology using metacognition-based VisionAgent to generate high-quality creation trajectories with explicit UTPC structures; (ii) The VisionCreator agentic model, optimized through Progressive Specialization Training (PST) and Virtual Reinforcement Learning (VRL) within a high-fidelity simulated environment, enabling stable and efficient acquisition of UTPC capabilities for complex creation tasks; (iii) VisGenBench, a comprehensive benchmark featuring 1.2k test samples across diverse scenarios for standardized evaluation of multi-step visual creation capabilities; (iv) Remarkably, our VisionCreator-8B/32B models demonstrate superior performance over larger closed-source models across multiple evaluation dimensions. Overall, this work provides a foundation for future research in visual-generation agentic systems.
