One-line takeaway
Épi is a persistent, self-improving research agent with research history, hierarchical memory, branching and independent review; it produced 120 record-setting math results, e.g. an ~84x narrower interval for the n-queens constant.
Épi 是能跨会话持续工作、靠经验自我改进的自主科研 agent，结合持久研究记录、分层记忆、分支探索和独立评审，产出 120 项数学纪录，如 n 皇后常数区间收窄约 84 倍。
