ZETA splits routing from vision
ZETA decouples routing from execution for more reliable vision agents.

š„ What happened
Researchers at Berkeley Lab unveiled ZETA, an architecture that separates a vision agent's tool-routing decision from the actual visual execution. On Qwen 3.8, segmentation routing accuracy jumps from 6.2% to 75.0%.
š” Why it matters
Today's multi-tool agents blur intent interpretation and perception, so a failure tells you nothing about whether reasoning or vision broke. ZETA makes both failure modes independently observable ā a prerequisite for high-stakes scientific automation.
ā” Our take
A sharp debugging trick that reveals how much "agent failure" is really just bad routing. Anyone shipping vision agents should steal this decoupling immediately.
