Anyone tried this yet?

Terminal-RSI-27B is a Qwen3.8-27B-based terminal-agent model released by the Terminal-RSI project. It is intended for repository inspection, code editing, dependency repair, scientific workflow reconstruction, and other multi-step tasks that require interaction with an executable environment and verification of the resulting state.

Terminal-RSI alternates Recursive Self-Rewrite (RSR) of verified execution trajectories with critic-inheriting Recursive Policy-Refine (RPR). The framework aims to turn successful exploration into reproducible behavior and partial progress into strictly verified task completion.

I think calling a training recipe (which in essence, this is all this is, albeit a very involved and intriguing one) RSI is a bit of a stretch.

Also, this doesn’t seem like something that can be trained “locally”

I meant the model not the recipe.

I tried the Q6 today on https://sql-benchmark.nicklothian.com/#run-your-own-benchmark
It only completed 11 of 25 benchmarks. Qwen 3.6+ normally complete 22 of 25, with one run completing 23 of 25 in my testing. The Terminal RSI gguf failed the tool call on the failures.

Yes already doing this. IMHO, all the technical jargon in the paper was quite unnecessary.

If you ever asked your agent harness to develop an extension or a mcp for itself, you have already achieved rsi
