Faithful transfer from experimental code to methodological descriptions
Establish a reliable procedure to accurately transfer experimental code modifications produced by Jr. AI Scientist’s coding agent during Stage 2 (Iterative Improvement) of the Experimental Phase into faithful and precise methodological descriptions within the generated manuscripts, despite increased code complexity introduced by iterative edits.

This occurs because the coding agent makes numerous modifications during Stage 2 in the Experimental Phase, increasing code complexity. This suggests that accurately transferring experimental code into a faithful methodological description remains an open challenge.
