Injecting new subjects naturally during streaming video generation requires integrating newly supplied visual references into the existing video while preserving established subjects and the scene. Encoding references independently of the current scene provides little guidance for this integration, while keeping their features in persistent memory can interfere with established context. We propose ReferStream, a framework that requires no additional training and combines reference construction using the current scene with transient cache injection. Joint Latent places reference latents in target regions of the latest scene latent, allowing reference features to be extracted in context. Cache Restoration uses these features to condition the injection chunk, then restores the overwritten global cache entries while retaining the newly generated history. This procedure incorporates new visual conditions without retraining the generator or revising emitted frames. We further introduce ReferStream Bench, a new benchmark with scheduled reference arrivals, evolving instructions, and explicit annotations of subject presence for InShot and MultiShot generation. Evaluation follows the event schedule and measures both the fidelity of new subjects and the preservation of established subjects, alongside video quality, text adherence, and count accuracy. Experiments on ReferStream Bench show higher scores for text adherence, subject similarity, and count accuracy than the compared baselines, including offline methods given all references in advance.

Recent agentic search frameworks enable deep research via iterative planning and retrieval, reducing hallucinations and enhancing factual grounding. However, they remain text-centric, overlooking the multimodal evidence that characterizes real-world expert reports. We introduce a pressing task: multimodal long-form generation. Accordingly, we propose Deep-Reporter, a unified agentic framework for grounded multimodal long-form generation. It orchestrates: (i) Agentic Multimodal Search and Filtering to retrieve and filter textual passages and information-dense visuals; (ii) Checklist-Guided Incremental Synthesis to ensure coherent image-text integration and optimal citation placement; and (iii) Recurrent Context Management to balance long-range coherence with local fluency. We develop a rigorous curation pipeline producing 8K high-quality agentic traces for model optimization. We further introduce M^2LongBench, a comprehensive testbed comprising 247 research tasks across 9 domains and a stable multimodal sandbox. It enables unified multimodal assessment, fair comparison, and accessible evaluation without commercial APIs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that long-form multimodal generation is a challenging task, especially in multimodal selection and integration, and effective post-training can bridge the gap.
