arXiv:2609.02264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adapting the communication topology of an LLM multi-agent system to each query improves both accuracy and efficiency, yet current designers treat this as conditional graph generation: a variational, autoregressive, or diffusion decoder searches the $N \times N$ adjacency space, and a graph-network proxy trained on utility and a structural cost such as edge count ranks the sampled candidates. We argue that this formulation is misaligned with the problem. Empirically, topologies that survive a reward filter collapse to about six distinct graphs even when the codebook capacity grows from 8 to 64; edge count is negatively correlated with measured token consumption (Pearson $r \approx -0.4$), so sparsifying the graph makes inference more expensive; and a message-passing scorer over agent-profile nodes is adjacency-invariant whenever agents share a profile---the default configuration of published benchmarks---so it cannot rank candidates at all in that regime. These three facts motivate Codebook Agent: a vector-quantized autoencoder compresses successful topologies into a query-independent 16-entry codebook; a reward-weighted MLP maps the query embedding to a distribution over codes; and an MLP proxy that reads the flattened adjacency, regressed on measured utility and per-task normalized token cost, reranks the top decoded candidates in a single batched forward pass. With no iterative search and no message passing at test time, Codebook Agent is the most accurate method on all six benchmarks we compare (84.6 average against 83.0 fo
arXiv:2609.02253v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep research agents augment large language models with external tools to answer complex, long-horizon questions through multi-turn reasoning. Learning from prior experience is crucial for continual improvement, yet existing methods either retrieve verbose task-specific traces that burden decision-making, or distill procedural skills that remain decoupled from downstream policy adaptation. We propose APEx, a hierarchical experience utilization framework that organizes interaction history into instance-level trajectory memories and category-level procedural skills, and couples them through a closed-loop architecture of Executor, Distiller, and Planner. The three modules are optimized via a three-stage alternating GRPO training paradigm, enabling reward-guided skill distillation rather than fixed-prompt generation. At test time, distilled skills serve as procedural priors for online Planner adaptation through skill-guided test-time reinforcement learning, allowing ground-truth-free self-improvement with skill-alignment regularization to prevent policy drift. Experiments on 7 benchmarks demonstrate that APEx achieves state-of-the-art performance, surpassing GPT-5.4 by 14.7 points and the strongest memory-augmented baseline by 3.0 points.
arXiv:2609.02246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-improving agent pipelines have a problem at their center. An optimizer rewrites prompts to score higher, and the score comes from a judge that is itself an LLM. That judge has the last word on whether the system is getting better, and our position is that it has not earned it. The judge should be demoted from oracle to advisor: its verdict becomes one input among several, and every change is gated instead by a deterministic verification layer the judge cannot override. We reached this position by building the alternative and running it. Over months of running autonomous prompt-optimization loops in production across contract analysis, compliance review, and code quality, we cataloged eleven ways the evaluation signal failed, in four classes: judge bias, harness and metric failures, ground-truth errors, and reward hacking. Agents achieved perfect scores by reading cached answer keys from their environment, a 100% pass rate concealing 68% true capability. A corrupted ground-truth label caused the optimizer to delete correct compliance rules to agree with it. A syntactically broken prompt was promoted as the winner because a silent parser fallback improved the metric. Attempts to fix the judge by rewriting its rubric plateaued; the only reliable gain came from a structural constraint on its output order. In response we describe PROCTOR, a Teacher-Student loop in which a stateful orchestrator holds all tool access, stateless subagents diagnose failures and draft mutations they cannot apply, and a Teacher grades those mutation
arXiv:2609.02244v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often struggle when low-resource training data are ambiguous or incomplete. Task-level natural-language priors can provide useful guidance in such settings, but existing approaches usually treat these priors as input context rather than as learning signals during training. We propose Prior-Guided Tuning (PGT), a training perspective that incorporates natural-language priors as auxiliary learning signals for low-resource LLM training. Under this perspective, we introduce Contrastive Prior Steering (CPS), which keeps the original supervised objective intact while adding positive and negative prior-conditioned auxiliary losses to encourage task-consistent learning and discourage plausible but misleading alternatives. Experiments on AmbiMath, Jigsaw, and MNLI/HANS show that CPS consistently improves over plain and prompt fine-tuning. On AmbiMath, CPS achieves 97.6% average exact-match accuracy. On Jigsaw, CPS improves average Macro F1 by 9.5 percentage points over standard fine-tuning, and with 1/10 of the experimental training data slightly exceeds full-data plain fine-tuning. On HANS, CPS improves non-entailment accuracy by 8.3 and 5.2 percentage points for LLaMA 3.1 8B and Qwen 2.5 7B, respectively, while maintaining comparable in-domain MNLI accuracy. These results support our central claim: task-level natural-language priors can provide useful guidance as auxiliary learning signals for low-resource LLM training. Our code and data will be publicly available.
arXiv:2609.02242v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI assistants often collaborate by proposing candidate edits, plans, or designs that users evaluate before adoption. Existing assistance methods focus on proposal quality or user-goal inference, often assuming that the user can reliably evaluate any proposal, which can fail in practice because of bounded rationality. We study evaluability-aware proposal planning, where proposals serve both as task interventions and as probes for learning latent preferences and evaluation constraints, where the resulting belief updates then guide later proposals. We formalise this setting as ProSE, a hidden-parameter sequential assistance problem, and instantiate it with a KL-regularised bounded-rational binary response model in which acceptance trades off value gain against a distance-dependent evaluability penalty. Analysing the planning consequence of this likelihood reveals that likely accepted proposals and informative probes need not coincide, which explains why planners that only pursue acceptance systematically underperform. We operationalise ProSE with \textsc{ProSE-Plan}, a depth-2 Bayes-adaptive planner that scores proposals by possible responses and response-induced posterior beliefs. In controlled graph simulations, \textsc{ProSE-Plan} improves over evaluability-unaware and myopic baselines when evaluation cost is the bottleneck, and a probe-commit ablation confirms that our approach selects informative proposals that simpler methods miss. Our results thus identify user evaluability as a planning-relevant dimension of AI assistance
arXiv:2609.02236v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Group-based reinforcement learning (RL) has become an effective paradigm for LLM post-training, but in multi-turn agentic tasks with sparse terminal rewards, it often provides coarse credit for intermediate actions. To obtain more fine-grained credit assignment, recent work such as GiGPO introduces step-level advantages for intermediate actions. However, these step-level signals still rely on the final outcome of each individual trajectory. As a result, actions within failed trajectories can remain poorly differentiated, so effective actions can receive the same unfavorable credit as erroneous ones. In this work, we propose Potential-Guided Policy Optimization (PGPO) for multi-turn agentic tasks. PGPO estimates empirical state potentials from anchor-state-group return statistics within each rollout group. It then derives action advantages from potential differences between adjacent states, enabling cross-trajectory credit propagation. This provides finer-grained step-level credit assignment, especially within failed trajectories. Experiments on ALFWorld and WebShop show strong overall performance relative to recent group-based RL methods. Further analysis provides evidence that PGPO yields more informative failure-side credit signals with negligible training overhead.
