The paper introduces POrchestra, a proactive agentic orchestration framework that lets sub‑agents request harness adjustments during execution, enhancing adaptability to dynamic environments. It also proposes On‑Policy Orchestration Distillation (OPOD), which uses hindsight feedback from sub‑agents’ requests to provide targeted improvement signals for training the orchestration policy. Experiments on three long‑horizon benchmarks show that POrchestra boosts task success by about 9.1% over the best baseline, and with OPOD the improvement rises to 10.0%, while also improving cost‑performance trade‑offs.

arXiv:2608. 00107v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic systems must repeatedly decide whether to answer directly, decompose a task, invoke a tool, execute code, delegate to a specialist, verify an intermediate result, or recover from failure.

TraceSpec is a framework that links trajectory evaluation with adaptive draft training to improve speculative decoding in large language model agents. It introduces a dynamic execution strategy combined with fixed‑prefix replay and provides a new corpus (TraceSpec‑Traj) of 10,000 training and 2,500 test states covering browsing and software engineering tasks. Experiments show that TraceSpec’s state‑conditioned draft allocation boosts replay throughput by 12.5%–22.6% and increases accepted length by up to 10.0% compared to fixed‑turn supervision.

Interlock is a framework that transforms long‑horizon tasks into typed completion graphs, linking evidence, decisions, and required effects through grounding, coupling, and realization edges. It compiles these graphs into a resettable workspace, a public request, and an evaluation rubric, and uses source‑coverage, public‑input, and agent‑as‑judge reviews to ensure that all mandatory requirements are met. Fine‑tuning Qwen3.6 backbones on Interlock‑generated trajectories improves pass rates on AutomationBench, JobBench, and Harvey LAB, showing that the synthesized experience benefits external task environments.
