The paper introduces a new benchmark that evaluates large language models (LLMs) on their agentic mathematical reasoning rather than just final answers. It aligns problem‑solving behaviors with a taxonomy of reusable mathematical atomic capabilities and includes planning, action, and feedback tasks in both textual and multimodal settings. Experiments show that models with similar end‑to‑end accuracy can have very different agentic profiles, highlighting the importance of process‑level evaluation.
arXiv:2608. 10039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic workflows have become an important abstraction for building reliable LLM-based automation systems by organizing large language models (LLMs), tools, and control logic into explicit execution structures.

The paper introduces Tool Primitives, a design that replaces rigid API schemas with natural language interfaces for tool calling, enabling seamless inter-tool communication. It builds ToolFace, a repository of over 25,000 functions that LLMs can dynamically retrieve, and HEART, a harness engineering framework that orchestrates tool use with planning, routing, and verification. Experiments show HEART outperforms fine‑tuned models and leading commercial LLMs while cutting API costs by up to 85%.
arXiv:2606. 07603v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit strong reasoning capabilities, yet most LLM-based agents are statically deployed and unable to improve through task interactions.
arXiv:2608. 02650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on external tools to complete complex real-world tasks.
arXiv:2607. 01942v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents have shown strong potential for solving complex multi-step tasks, yet existing performance improvements often rely on either scaling to larger backbone models or task-specific fine-tuning.
AnyAct introduces a universal action layer that consolidates diverse tool capabilities into a self‑evolving action space for AI agents operating in open‑world environments. It tackles the scale dilemma, tool non‑stationarity, and heterogeneous feedback by using hierarchical progressive retrieval and test‑time reliability evolution, while a heterogeneous observation grounding module unifies multi‑modal feedback. Evaluations on LiveMCPBench and the newly created OSMCP benchmark show state‑of‑the‑art performance, with significant gains in task success rate and reduced execution steps, especially for models with limited native capabilities.

arXiv:2510. 15416v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We investigate a framework in which LoRA adapters are treated as callable tools that a base language model can dynamically select and invoke.
AlgoEvo introduces a unified agentic framework for automated algorithm discovery that replaces rigid search pipelines with an interactive, knowledge‑accumulating process. An autonomous agent inspects, diagnoses, and edits code using runtime feedback, while a design skill hub decouples paradigm‑specific knowledge from the core engine, enabling a single workflow to handle single‑objective, multi‑objective, and multi‑component design tasks. The hierarchical experience mechanism organizes search trajectories into a task‑level tree, guiding exploration and consolidating cross‑task patterns into reusable skills, resulting in performance that matches or surpasses specialized methods with fewer evaluations and reduced token consumption.
