arXiv Paper Apodex 1.1 Pitches 'Environment Scaling' Agentic Recipe, Ships 35B Mini for Local Deploy

A 70-author paper titled 'Apodex 1.1: Scaling Agentic Intelligence for Complex Work' hit Hugging Face Papers on Aug 24 with 88 upvotes, the day's top research trend. The team pitches two scaling axes — an 'Environment Scaling' expansion of executable code environments and 'Agentic Coordination Scaling' for parallel task delegation across a shared execution harness — and claims leading results on finance, scientific research, math, coding and search despite using smaller models than frontier systems. A 35B 'Apodex 1.1 Mini' variant is positioned for locally deployable use.
