What is it?

RSIHub is an open-source framework for building, comparing, and extending agent-evolution methods on shared infrastructure. It lets researchers focus on evolution policies while keeping evaluation separate and results tied to candidates and conditions

How does it work?

Every recipe composes the same loop: select → rollout → analyze → mutate → guardrail → evaluate → absorb. Operators plug into nine named stages, five of which are required (select, rollout, mutate, gate, record) and four optional (analyze, validate, novelty, reflect). The framework owns the guardrail, evaluate, and parts of the loop, while recipes control the other phases

What does it need to run?

RSIHub runs each trial on Harbor, which provides container execution, trajectory capture, and per-task verification. Specific hardware or software requirements are not listed in the sources

By the numbers

The honest read

The reported 13.5 percentage-point pass@1 gain comes from the authors' own experiments on specific benchmarks (MiniSWE, Codex, Terminal Bench 2, τ³ Banking) under fixed model and evaluator configurations, so it does not demonstrate general performance across all tasks or models. The figures reflect internal evaluations; no external benchmarks or independent replications are provided. RSIHub’s value lies in its reproducible candidate lineage and shared infrastructure, but the sources do not disclose hardware requirements, licensing terms, or download size, limiting practical deployment information.
