CAX-Agent: A Lightweight Agent Harness for Reliable APDL Automation
The paper introduces CAX-Agent, a lightweight agent harness designed for reliable automation in MAPDL finite-element simulations. It addresses challenges related to execution control and fault recovery by implementing a structured orchestration middleware. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that the model-driven recovery strategy significantly outperforms other methods in task completion and intervention rates.
- ▪CAX-Agent is built to enhance reliability in MAPDL automation by managing tool lifecycles and workflow states.
- ▪The architecture includes three layers: LLM service, agent harness, and solver backend, with a recovery ladder for escalating interventions.
- ▪Model-driven recovery achieved the highest completion rate of 92.67% and a strong inter-rater agreement score.
