ICML researchers just published the agent architecture everyone will copy next year. One shared graph. A custom workflow for every task. Here’s the system: Step 1 → Break workflows into reusable operations Step 2 → Store them inside one shared graph Step 3 → Generate the right workflow at runtime Step 4 → Reuse state instead of rebuilding context The result: Better performance across five benchmarks Around 4× lower memory usage Most teams are still hard-coding static agent workflows. This paper shows what replaces them. Static workflows are the old architecture. Runtime graphs are the new one. Bookmark this before every agent team starts building it.
