Agent-Integrated Software: Interaction Contracts and Continuous Assurance

The paper introduces Agent-Integrated Software (AIS), a pattern that embeds an intelligent agent within an existing application to address persistent coordination challenges. It defines Intent-Level Interaction Abstraction (IIA) as the task semantics for user inspection and control, and presents interaction contracts that constrain the relationship between AIS execution and IIA states. The authors provide a transition-system model, a compact disclosure contract, and conditional propositions to illustrate how local component validity is insufficient and how admission invariants can be separated from planning, concluding with a research agenda for making agent integration a maintainable software engineering discipline.

Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration for Long-Horizon Tasks

The paper investigates how large language model agents handle long‑horizon tasks and finds that verification is crucial for success but often occurs too late. It shows that sharing a common context dilutes duty‑relevant information and that simply separating duties among agents is insufficient, as agents can lose sight of the overall goal. To address these issues, the authors propose Goal‑Aware Dynamic Multi‑Agent Collaboration (GAD), which uses an execution graph to organize subtasks, keeps each agent’s context focused on its specific goal, and dynamically adjusts task dependencies and information sharing based on execution evidence, with verification and recovery checks providing feedback for repair.

Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration for Long-Horizon Tasks

The paper introduces Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration (GAD), a framework that assigns distinct duties to separate agents with individualized contexts to tackle long-horizon tasks. It employs a growing execution graph to structure subtasks and their dependencies, ensuring each agent retains the original instruction, task goal, and acceptance conditions. GAD dynamically adapts collaboration and information sharing, using verification and recovery checks to monitor subtask results and overall task completion, providing feedback for repair when checks fail.

Intent-Governed Tool Authorization for AI Agents

AI agents increasingly act through external tools: they read private data, construct structured payloads, submit write requests, export records, and coordinate workflows across application boundaries. Existing authorization mechanisms usually ask whether an integration credential, app, or token can call a tool.

Who Holds the Pen? Let Specifications, Not Agents, Sign Off

The paper argues that large language model agents should not be the sole authority on whether they have satisfied a task. It identifies two gaps—understanding–execution and state–authority—where agents may claim completion without actually meeting the specification. The authors propose SpecHarness, a framework that separates agent proposals from authoritative state by requiring evidence from qualified providers to confirm compliance, and demonstrate its effectiveness on guideline‑following and artifact‑generation tasks.
