arXiv:2605. 28390v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Test-time skill evolving is regarded as a new paradigm for enhancing deployed agentic systems.
arXiv:2604. 01687v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Anthropic proposes the concept of skills for LLM agents to tackle multi-step professional tasks that simple tool invocations cannot address.
arXiv:2606. 03692v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent AI agents can flexibly invoke skills to solve complex tasks, but their long-term improvement is fundamentally constrained by a lack of systematic skill construction, accumulation, and transfer.
arXiv:2605. 16986v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Additional test-time compute can give LLM agents access to more past experience, yet expanding the context or adding rollouts does not necessarily yield greater agent capability.
arXiv:2607. 21971v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Test-time scaling through iterative self-evolution with environment feedback, as demonstrated by AlphaEvolve, shows remarkable performance gains.
arXiv:2606. 18837v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based automatic Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) generation has become a crucial frontier for tackling complex tasks.
arXiv:2608. 05628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Although agent skills equip LLMs with reusable procedural knowledge, manual maintenance suffers from high costs, unscalability, and misalignment.
Although agent skills equip LLMs with reusable procedural knowledge, manual maintenance suffers from high costs, unscalability, and misalignment. Real-world deployments thus require autonomous, on-demand skill evolution at test time, constrained by limited interaction budgets and a lack of training or validation sets.
arXiv:2607. 01874v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Skills are becoming a reusable operational layer for LLM agents, encoding SOPs, domain rules, tool workflows, scripts, and validation routines.
CODESKILL is an LLM-based framework that learns to extract, evolve, and maintain procedural skills from coding-agent trajectories. It treats skill extraction and skill-bank management as a learnable policy trained with reinforcement learning, using a hybrid reward combining rubric-based skill quality and verifiable execution feedback. Experiments on EnvBench, SWE-Bench Verified, and Terminal-Bench 2 demonstrate that CODESKILL raises average pass rates by 11.03 over a no-skill baseline and by 5.10 over the strongest prompt-based or memory baseline while keeping a compact skill bank.
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.
Agent self-evolution in long-horizon LLM systems is largely procedural: useful experience is not merely stored information, but reusable procedures for searching, debugging, and verification. Yet current evaluations do not isolate this form of transfer.
arXiv:2608. 15071v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning from experience is critical for developing capable, self-improving large language model (LLM) agents.
