Today's inference-time workloads increasingly depend on timely access to a model's internal states. We present DMI-Lib, a high-speed deep model inspector that treats internal observability as a first-class systems primitive, decoupling it from the inference hot path via an asynchronous observability substrate built from Ring^2, a GPU-CPU memory abstraction for capturing and staging tensors, and a policy-controlled host backend that exports them. DMI-Lib enables the placement of observation points across a rich space of internal signals and diverse inference backends while preserving serving optimizations and adhering to tight GPU memory budgets. Our experiments demonstrate that DMI-Lib incurs only 0.4%--6.8% overhead in offline batch inference and an average of 6% in moderate online serving, reducing latency overhead by 2x-15x compared to existing baselines with similar observability features. DMI-Lib is open-sourced at https://github.com/ProjectDMX/DMI.

LLM inference and serving systems have become security-critical infrastructure; however, many of their most concerning failures arise from the serving layer rather than from model behavior alone. Modern inference engines combine KV cache, batching, prefix sharing, speculative decoding, adapters, and multi-tenant scheduling, creating shared-state behavior that only emerges under realistic concurrent workloads and is missed by standard model, safety, and API tests. We present GRIEF, a greybox fuzzer for LLM inference engines that treats timed multi-request traces as first-class inputs, uses lightweight oracles to detect crashes, hangs, performance pathologies, and silent output corruption, and applies controlled replay with log-probability checks to confirm reproducible serving-layer failures. Across early campaigns on vLLM and SGLang, GRIEF discovers 15 vulnerabilities, 10 confirmed by engine developers, including 2 CVEs, spanning KV-cache isolation failures, cross-request performance interference, and crash or liveness bugs. These results show that concurrency, caching, and state reuse can induce silent cross-request contamination, noisy-neighbor denial of service, and delayed crashes without malformed inputs or explicit server errors, making concurrent serving behavior a first-class security and reliability boundary for LLM infrastructure.

Computer use agents (CUAs) have advanced rapidly in desktop automation, and a growing number of users deploy CUAs such as OpenClaw on Mac Mini for always-on automation. However, existing benchmarks, including those for macOS, evaluate agents without framework augmentation and rely on binary evaluation. As a result, they fail to capture both the framework capabilities leveraged by modern CUAs and the partial progress on long-horizon, multi-application tasks. We present MacAgentBench, a comprehensive macOS agent benchmark comprising 676 tasks across 25 applications, with nearly 60% involving both GUI and CLI interaction. The benchmark adopts deterministic rule-based evaluation and introduces fine-grained multi-checkpoint scoring with capability annotations for multi-application tasks. Experiments across three frameworks and 16 models show that the best configuration, Claude Opus 4.6 on OpenClaw, attains 73.7% Pass@1, while this advantage is primarily driven by the skill library rather than by framework design. Fine-grained metrics further reveal that models with similar Pass@1 can differ substantially in sub-goal completion. Our code and data are publicly available at https://github.com/JetAstra/MacAgentBench.

3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) enables high-quality real-time 3D rendering but faces challenges in efficiently scaling to ultra-dense scenes and high-resolution due to computational bottlenecks that limit its use in latency-sensitive applications. Instead of optimizing the splatting pipeline itself, we propose \textbf{3DGS$^3$}, a unified post-rendering framework that jointly performs super sampling and frame interpolation through differentiable processing of low-resolution outputs to achieve both high-resolution and high-frame-rate rendering. Our \textbf{Gradient\- \-Aware Super Sampling (GASS)} module leverages the continuous differentiability of 3DGS to extract image gradients that guide a GRU-based refinement network to enable high-fidelity super sampling. Furthermore, a \textbf{Lightweight Temporal Frame Interpolation (LTFI)} module based on a compact U-Net-like backbone fuses temporal and differentiable spatial cues from consecutive frames to synthesize temporally coherent intermediate frames. Experiments on public datasets demonstrate that 3DGS$^3$ achieves superior rendering efficiency and visual quality when compared with state-of-the-art methods and remains compatible with existing 3DGS acceleration techniques. The code will be publicly released upon acceptance.
