arXiv:2608. 08570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rejection sampling fine-tuning (RFT) is widely used to train code agents by generating trajectories on verifiable software engineering tasks, retaining those that pass the tests, and fine-tuning on the successful rollouts.

arXiv:2607. 08124v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The behavior of an LLM agent is determined not only by the underlying model, but also by its harness: the executable program that constructs context, invokes tools, verifies intermediate results, and recovers from failures.

arXiv:2608. 17588v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent Skills package reusable natural language procedures with executable resources, enabling software agents to acquire task specific capabilities without model adaptation.
By Zhibo Zhang, Zhen Ouyang, Ling Shi, Kailong Wang
Agent Skills package reusable natural language procedures with executable resources, enabling software agents to acquire task specific capabilities without model adaptation. Automatically generating such Skills can improve task performance, yet evaluating a candidate solely from its artifact or final task outcome leaves unresolved which actions the equipped agent will perform and which side effects those actions will produce.
