WeAgent-MMSearch: Native Text-Vision Interaction for Multimodal Search Agents

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 28, 2026 · UTC

Multimodal search agents extend parametric knowledge with newly emerging and long-tail evidence from the open web. Yet many existing agentic search environments often expose retrieved evidence only as text and omit tool-returned images from subsequent context, reducing visually grounded trajectories to text-only reasoning. Long-horizon interaction also compounds tool-call, response-length, timeout, and budget failures, which can discard salvageable trajectories, waste rollout computation, and disturb policy updates. To address these issues, we introduce WeAgent-Harness, a multimodal agentic ha
