AdaRepair-Mem: Adaptive Experience Orchestration for Repository-Level Program Repair

AdaRepair-Mem introduces an adaptive experience retrieval framework for repository-level program repair, addressing three key limitations in existing memory-augmented methods: imbalanced episodic memory, non-monotonic success with increased memory, and phase misalignment of memory types. The framework employs coverage-aware retrieval, quality-aware selection, and stage-aware routing to better match repair contexts with relevant memories. Evaluations on SWE-Bench-Lite and SWE-Bench-Verified show improved performance on under-covered repositories, reduced noisy retrieval, and enhanced patch refinement support.

BLAgent: Agentic RAG for File-Level Bug Localization

arXiv:2605. 17965v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bug localization remains a key bottleneck for large language model (LLM)-based software maintenance, where accurately identifying faulty code is essential for debugging, root cause analysis, triage, and automated program repair (APR).

From Faulty Memories to Corrected Actions: Dependency-Guided Rollback Repair for Memory-Augmented Agents

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.

When Does Memory Help? A Cost-Aware Evaluation of Long-Term Memory in Tool-Using LLM Agents

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.

Temporal Validity on Real Software Histories: Eliminating Stale-Fact Errors in Code-Assistant Memory over GitHub Fixes

The paper evaluates a deterministic supersession memory, MemStrata, for retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) systems on real software history. Using 707 GitHub issues, the authors extracted 130 clean atomic state transitions where a single value changes from pre‑fix to post‑fix. MemStrata achieved 0.91 answer accuracy versus 0.57–0.59 for standard RAG, eliminating stale‑fact errors that RAG returned 36–38% of the time, while maintaining comparable retrieval latency.
