OLIVIA treats LLM agent action selection as a contextual linear bandit over frozen hidden states and applies UCB exploration to adapt online, yielding consistent gains over static ReAct and prompt-based baselines on four benchmarks.
SkillGuard extracts executable environment contracts from LLM skill documents to detect only relevant drifts, reporting zero false positives on 599 cases, 100% precision in known-drift tests, and raising one-round repair success from 10% to 78%.
CMIB uses a conditional multimodal information bottleneck to create reusable agent skills that separate verbalizable text content from predictive perceptual residuals, improving execution stability.
SkillRet benchmark shows fine-tuned retrievers improve NDCG@10 by 13+ points over prior models on large-scale skill retrieval for LLM agents.
SIGIL cryptographically seals the audit-runtime gap for LLM skills via an on-chain registry with four publication types, DAO vetting, and a runtime verification loader that enforces integrity and permissions.
This paper introduces a systems-level conceptual framing and a three-level taxonomy (intra-model, system-level, socio-technical) for uncertainty propagation in compound LLM applications, along with engineering insights and open challenges.
Knows uses a YAML sidecar specification to provide structured, agent-consumable representations of research papers, yielding large accuracy gains for small LLMs on comprehension tasks and rapid community adoption via a public hub.
The first systematization of blockchain-based agent-to-agent payments organizes designs into discovery, authorization, execution, and accounting stages while identifying trust and security gaps.
SkillSafetyBench shows that localized non-user attacks via skills and artifacts can consistently induce unsafe agent behavior across domains and model backends, independent of user intent.
SCOPE maintains semantic commitments via structured specifications and conditional skill orchestration, achieving 0.60 EGIP on the new Gen-Arena benchmark while outperforming baselines on WISE-V and MindBench.
GoSkills converts flat skill lists into role-labeled execution contexts via anchor-centered groups and graph expansion, preserving coverage and improving rewards on SkillsBench and ALFWorld under small skill budgets.
SkillGraph jointly evolves agent skills and collaboration topologies in multi-agent vision-language systems using a multimodal graph transformer and a skill designer, yielding consistent performance gains on benchmarks.
The Experience Compression Spectrum unifies memory, skills, and rules in LLM agents along increasing compression levels and identifies the absence of adaptive cross-level compression as the missing diagonal.
Ace-Skill boosts multimodal agent self-evolution via prioritized rollouts with lazy-decay tracking and semantic knowledge clustering, yielding up to 35% relative gains on tool-use benchmarks and zero-shot transfer to smaller models.
Skill1 trains a single RL policy to co-evolve skill selection, utilization, and distillation in language model agents from one task-outcome reward, using low-frequency trends to credit selection and high-frequency variation to credit distillation, outperforming baselines on ALFWorld and WebShop.
LLM agent progress depends on externalizing cognitive functions into memory, skills, protocols, and harness engineering that coordinates them reliably.
The paper surveys agent skills for LLM agents, organizing the literature into a four-stage lifecycle of representation, acquisition, retrieval, and evolution while highlighting their role in system scalability.
SciFi is a safe, lightweight agentic AI framework that automates structured scientific tasks with minimal human intervention via isolated environments and layered self-assessing agents.
