Abstract
Image generation and editing models have advanced rapidly, yet remain unreliable when prompts require external world knowledge. Bounded and long-tail parametric knowledge prevents direct or reason-then-generate approaches from recovering the required facts and visual appearances. Existing agentic generation and editing methods mitigate this limitation with retrieval tools, yet remain constrained by insufficient visual verification, overloaded policy models, and weak integration of retrieved textual and visual evidence. To address these limitations, we present WeAgent-MMGenEdit, a full-stack recipe including a multimodal harness, a scalable data construction pipeline, a comprehensive benchmark, and post-training methods for the agent policy and image backend. We first introduce WeAgent-Harness, a multimodal runtime with persistent evidence management and dedicated verification and integration tools that organize retrieved multimodal evidence into a dense carrier. Upon this, we develop a scalable pipeline for prompt synthesis and agentic trajectory collection, yielding 23K supervised trajectories and 14.7K RL tasks with three-layer verifiable checklists. We further introduce WeBench-MMGenEdit, a bilingual benchmark covering both knowledge-intensive image generation and multi-image editing. Finally, a two-sided post-training recipe based on SFT and RL improves the agent policy and image backend. Together, WeAgent-MMGenEdit enables a 30B-total/3B-active policy to outperform similarly sized policy models and approach the performance of a 1T-parameter agent.
