让大模型会搜索：用新方法解决长对话中记忆爆炸问题

Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) excel at visual perception but struggle with real-time, knowledge-intensive queries due to their reliance on static parametric knowledge. While multimodal search agents offer a promising solution, developing them from vanilla LMMs presents two major challenges: the lack of open recipes to cultivate search agency from scratch, and the severe context explosion (attention dilution) that occurs during long-horizon multi-turn investigations. In this paper, we address both challenges by developing a native multimodal search agent. First, we introduce an open training recipe featuring Agentic Seeding, a formative training stage that bootstraps tool-use and planning abilities directly from a non-agentic foundation. Second, to overcome the context bottleneck, we propose V-Fold, an adaptive memory management mechanism. V-Fold retains recent interactions as high-fidelity text while folding stale historical context into the visual space via rendering, exploiting the model's cross-modal alignment to preserve raw evidence without text token redundancy. Combining these innovations, we present POINTS-Seeker-8B, which achieves state-of-the-art performance among models of comparable scale across six multimodal search benchmarks.
