Recent Updates
- [2025.08.21] Science-Star Init: We release Science-Star. It is an user-friendly open platform for building, extending, and experimenting with scientific agents.
We introduce Science-Star, the open-source framework built to revolutionize how we build, extend, and experiment scientific AI agents. Frustrated by the limitations of existing tools, we engineered Science-Star to be intuitive yet powerful. At its core, Science-Star combines a robust ReAct-based engine with essential features like Planning, Action, Memory and Reflection, integrated HLE dataset support, and powerful visualization tools. It's an all-in-one platform designed to get your ideas from concept to reality, faster than ever. Whether you are a seasoned researcher or a curious developer, Science-Star provides the tools you need to push the boundaries of science. The next breakthrough is waiting. Let's build it together. Join the Science-Star community today!

-
Integrated Visualization: An end-to-end, extensible visualization suite powered by streamlit. It streamlines the entire workflow from data inspection and real-time experiment monitoring to results logging and analysis.
-
Plug-and-Play Modularity: Core components (
dataloader,memory,planner,tool,evaluator) are designed with well-defined interfaces. This modularity enables effortless substitution and customization. -
Scientific Extensibility: Science-Star has built-in support for advanced retrieval and literature-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
-
More Scientific Extensibility: We will add more tools for seamless integration of specific scientific tools (e.g., Chemistry, Biology).
-
More Architectures Support: We will support more agent architectures outside the ReAct framework.
-
More Tasks and Datasets Support: We will support more agent datasets and tasks, like GAIA etc.
Additional resources are available in the codebase:
- Example tools:

Using o4-mini-2025-04-16 as our base model, we have achieved state-of-the-art (SOTA) results on a small-scale HLE dataset by implementing an end-to-end pipeline that leverages the ReAct framework with integrated planning, action, memory and reflection modules. The project requires further testing and refinement. We invite the open-source community to join us in shaping the future of this work. Let's build together!
