Skill Blocks: How Should an Agent Load Its Skill? A Caching-Correct Comparison of Pre-load, On-Demand Tool-Loading, Progressive Disclosure, and Hybrid

arXiv:2608. 14943v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are often injected in full on every request, increasing token cost.

SkillJuror: Measuring How Agent Skill Organization Changes Runtime Behavior

Agent Skills augment large language model (LLM) agents with procedural knowledge at inference time, but current benchmarks rarely distinguish what a Skill says from how it is organized. We study this distinction through Progressive Disclosure, where a concise root file points agents to supporting resources on demand, and compare it with a normalized flat baseline.

EvoClawBench: Can Agents Learn Reusable Skills from Their Own Runs?

arXiv:2607. 09711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing agent benchmarks primarily test task completion, tool use, or skill utility, but do not isolate whether a runtime can convert evidence from its own runs into reusable skills that improve fresh executions after authoring overhead.

Skill Retrieval Augmentation for Agentic AI

arXiv:2604. 24594v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) evolve into agentic problem solvers, they increasingly rely on external, reusable skills to handle tasks beyond their native parametric capabilities.
