SearchSwarm: Towards Delegation Intelligence in Agentic LLMs for Long-Horizon Deep Research

arXiv:2606. 09730v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly expected to handle complex, long-horizon real-world tasks whose context demands can grow without bound, yet model context windows remain inherently finite.

G-ReAct: Graph-Guided Deep Search via Structure-State Co-Evolution

G-ReAct is a reasoning framework that frames deep search as state evolution over a fixed-topology query graph, enabling explicit tracking of search progress and constraint preservation. It generates high-quality trajectories for fine-tuning and provides structured guidance during inference without extra fine-tuning. Experiments show that with only 1.9K generated trajectories, a Qwen3 model achieves strong accuracy on BrowseComp-ZH and XBench, outperforming larger open-source baselines, and consistently improves existing LLMs on deep-search tasks.

OpenResearcher: A Fully Open Pipeline for Long-Horizon Deep Research Trajectory Synthesis

OpenResearcher is a fully open, reproducible pipeline for generating long‑horizon deep research trajectories that interleave search, evidence aggregation, and multi‑step reasoning. It decouples corpus bootstrapping from trajectory synthesis and runs the search‑and‑browse loop offline using three browser primitives over a 15M‑document corpus. Using GPT‑OSS‑120B as a teacher, the pipeline produced over 97K trajectories, enabling a 30B‑A3B model to achieve 54.8% accuracy on BrowseComp‑Plus and providing insights into pipeline design through controlled analysis.

Recirculation

The paper introduces recirculation, an inference‑time architectural enhancement for foundation models that reduces perplexity and improves accuracy on generation and reasoning tasks without adding significant latency. Recirculation adds a specific form of recurrence, enabling the model to function as a dynamical system that tracks belief states, and is distinct from chain‑of‑thought or depth‑recurrence methods. An adaptive variant requires minimal hyperparameter tuning and achieves notable gains on the Gemma3 family, including a 23% perplexity drop and a 21% accuracy increase on GSM8k.

DeepRefine: Agentic Knowledge Refinement via Reinforcement Learning

DeepRefine is a reinforcement learning framework that improves the quality of pre‑constructed structured knowledge bases—such as knowledge graphs or LLM‑Wikis—by engaging in multi‑turn interactions with the base. It performs abductive diagnosis to locate defects, then applies targeted refinement actions to incrementally update the knowledge base. The system uses a Gain‑Beyond‑Draft reward to train its refinement policy end‑to‑end, achieving consistent downstream performance gains over strong baselines.

Cost-Effective Agent Harnesses for Abstract Reasoning and Generalization on ARC-AGI-1

arXiv:2607. 06764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent progress on ARC-AGI-1 from disclosed architectures has come broadly from two regimes: heavy test-time compute over frontier models (evolutionary search, exhaustive sampling, extended chain-of-thought), or benchmark-specific training in which small models are fine-tuned on ARC data, often with task-specialized architectures.

DAGent: Evaluate-then-Grow Planning for Deep Research Agents

DAGent introduces an Evaluate‑then‑Grow planning approach for deep research agents, building directed acyclic graphs incrementally based on confidence and uncertainty from completed tasks. The framework includes a hierarchical context layer for efficient query handling and a structural reinforcement learning component, DAGRPO, that rewards topology‑conditioned execution. Experiments on BrowseComp‑Plus, GAIA, and xbench‑DeepSearch show DAGent outperforming strong baselines across multiple backbones and scaling to large language models.

Agent-Editing World Model: Rethinking World Modeling for LLM Agents

The paper introduces the Agent-Editing World Model (AEWM), a new approach that models how reasoning and actions influence future task progress instead of simulating tool responses. AEWM includes an Action Judge that classifies decisions as Critical, Exploratory, or Noisy, and a State Revision mechanism that edits noisy reasoning–action continuations from the same observed history. The integrated system, EditAct, directly updates the underlying state during real execution, leading to significant performance gains across multiple benchmarks and agent backbones.
