Full factorial testing of five LLM agent components reveals that the complete 'All-In' combination is consistently outperformed by smaller subsets due to cross-component interference, with optimal subsets being task- and scale-dependent.

ScoringModel raises mean Recall@10 to 52.2 on the FakeWiki provenance benchmark from 35.0 for the best baseline, winning 41 of 45 model-by-condition comparisons and gaining 15.7 points on jailbreak-style queries.
Reasoning traces in large reasoning models expose safety failures missed by final-answer checks, and adaptive multi-principle steering reduces unsafe content in both traces and answers while preserving task performance.
LightThinker++ adds explicit adaptive memory management and a trajectory synthesis pipeline to LLM reasoning, cutting peak token use by ~70% while gaining accuracy in standard and long-horizon agent tasks.
