arXiv:2608. 12720v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on long-term memory for persistent interactions, the retrieval mechanisms governing this memory are rarely treated as evolvable components.

The paper introduces Boundary-Aware Skill Memory (BASM), a method that enriches skill memories for large language model agents with explicit boundary fields such as applicability conditions, risk cues, avoidance rules, and recovery notes. This approach transforms retrieved skills from unconditional templates into state‑conditioned guidance, preventing the Skill Imitation Trap where more skills lead to incorrect tool usage. Experiments on three agent benchmarks and four model scales show that BASM improves task success rates, accuracy, and reduces attack success while cutting average steps compared to memory‑free baselines.

CHIME introduces a credit‑aware hierarchical memory evolution framework that separates planning and execution experiences into distinct memory banks. By attributing each task outcome to the plan, execution, both, or neither before memorization, CHIME mitigates bias from noisy final outcomes and improves long‑horizon agent planning. Experiments on four benchmarks demonstrate that CHIME outperforms existing training‑based and self‑evolving memory methods, requires fewer memory items, and transfers effectively across backbone models.

The paper introduces Recuris, a recursive Experiential‑Working Memory architecture that lets long‑horizon agents track task progress and select skills based on current needs rather than full history. By coupling working memory with experiential memory, execution becomes structured evidence that localizes failures to specific memory components, enabling a bounded recursive memory‑evolution loop. Across four benchmarks and ten models, Recuris improves task success in 35 of 37 model‑benchmark pairs, raising state‑of‑the‑art performance on tau‑bench and SkillFlow and reducing common long‑horizon failures by up to 80%.

arXiv:2606. 04536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing memory-augmented LLM agents store past experience exclusively in prompt space, as textual summaries or retrieved passages, while keeping model parameters frozen throughout a rollout.

Recursive self-improvement (RSI) remains hard in long-horizon tasks, where growing histories obscure the task state and misalign skill invocation. We introduce Recuris, a recursive Experiential-Workin...
arXiv:2607. 01224v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory expertise is a learned skill: knowing what to encode, when to retrieve, and how to organize knowledge--a capacity known in cognitive science as metamemory.

DiagEvo is a self‑evolution framework that guides language‑model training by extracting recurring error causes from a solver’s own failure history and storing them in a hierarchical error‑cause memory. The system classifies causes as Active or Mastered, uses this information to balance targeted question generation with exploration, and applies double‑confidence filtering to keep only intermediate‑difficulty questions. Experiments show that DiagEvo outperforms baselines on nine benchmarks for three solvers, achieving up to 72.3% mean accuracy on five mathematical reasoning tasks.
