arXiv:2607. 16247v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have empowered embodied agents to execute complex household tasks, they struggle to proactively handle dynamically emerging hazards during closed-loop interactions.

arXiv:2608. 10502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent memory lets language-model agents reuse information across sessions, but it also makes errors durable: a poisoned, stale, or misattributed record can alter reasoning, tool use, answers, and subsequent memory writes.

arXiv:2607. 10608v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is becoming a core component of long-horizon AI agents, allowing agents to reuse past experience when operating web browsers, software tools, and other interactive environments.

CoreSense is a robot‑system integration architecture that traces episodic evidence and uses a conflict‑aware belief gate to decide whether to proceed, re‑observe, abstain, or escalates. The gate evaluates scope, provenance, time, contradiction, and support before making a recommendation. Evaluation on public robot datasets, simulations, and a live cloud deployment shows that belief gating can eliminate protocol‑defined unsafe proceeds while maintaining auditability.

arXiv:2607. 11226v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents today are caught in an awkward bind.
By Tengjiao Liu
The paper introduces MERIT, a benchmark that evaluates the marginal benefit of long‑term memory for tool‑using large language model agents while explicitly accounting for cost. MERIT provides episodic tool‑use tasks across three domains, verifies dependence on earlier‑episode facts, and measures memory operations in tokens and dollars. Experiments on GPT‑4.1‑mini, Claude Haiku 4.5, and Claude Sonnet 5 show that memory can significantly improve task success, but its utility varies widely across models and memory implementations, and full replay is rarely cost‑effective.

arXiv:2609. 04875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-running LLM agents are stateful: beyond the transcript they accrete compressed summaries, plaintext memory, pending tool plans, and, under every serving API, a KV cache.

arXiv:2606. 15903v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Where an LLM sits in an agent memory pipeline -- between the recall plane that retrieves stored facts (extensively benchmarked) and the control plane that mutates them via supersede, release, purge (largely untested) -- shapes which forgetting failure modes the system recovers.

The paper introduces Divide-and-Remember (D&R), a recursive memory method for vision-language-action (VLA) policies that optimises memory by maximizing the conditional mutual information between actions and memory given observations. D&R recursively divides the full history into top‑K selections over 2K tokens, using a shared lightweight selector across all recursion blocks to handle unbounded histories efficiently. Evaluated on the RoboMME benchmark of 16 long‑horizon manipulation tasks, D&R achieves state‑of‑the‑art success rates with consistent gains across all suites while using only 64 tokens, and similar improvements are observed in real‑robot experiments.
