Gate News message, April 23 — Google’s Jules team announced the opening of a waitlist for a new version of the product, repositioning Jules from an asynchronous coding agent to an end-to-end agentic product development platform. According to the official description, the upgraded platform reads entire product context, determines what should be built next, proposes solutions, and submits pull requests.
The previous version operated as a GitHub-integrated asynchronous coding agent that executed specific tasks assigned by users and submitted code in the background. The new version marks a significant shift: instead of merely executing given tasks, the agent now proactively understands the product landscape and autonomously decides what to build.

Perplexity Discloses Web Search Agent Post-Training Method; Qwen3.5-Based Model Outperforms GPT-5.4 on Accuracy and Cost
Perplexity uses SFT followed by RL with Qwen3.5 models, leveraging a multi-hop QA dataset and rubric checks to boost search accuracy and efficiency, achieving best-in-class FRAMES performance.
Abstract: Perplexity's post-training workflow for web-search agents combines supervised fine-tuning (SFT) to enforce instruction-following and language consistency with online reinforcement learning (RL) via the GRPO algorithm. The RL stage uses a proprietary multi-hop verifiable QA dataset and rubric-based conversational data to prevent SFT drift, with reward gating and within-group efficiency penalties. Evaluation shows Qwen3.5-397B-SFT-RL achieving top FRAMES performance, 57.3% accuracy with a single tool call and 73.9% with four calls at $0.02 per query, outperforming GPT-5.4 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 on these metrics. Pricing is API-based and excludes caching.

OpenAI Codex Team Fixes OpenClaw Authentication Bug, Significantly Improves Agent Behavior
OpenClaw switches from Pi to Codex harness to fix a silent authentication fallback, with two PRs addressing the bridge and fallback; post-fix, the agent shifts from shallow heartbeat polling to a full work loop, enabling progress.
Abstract: OpenClaw’s Codex harness optimization addressed a critical authentication flaw that caused silent fallback to the Pi harness when using Codex with OpenAI models. Two pull requests fix the authentication bridge and prevent silent fallback, changing the runtime adapter. As a result, agent behavior evolves from shallow heartbeat polling to a full work loop that reads context, analyzes tasks, edits repositories, and verifies progress, improving continuity and visibility across heartbeats.
