CARL: Constraint-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Planning with LLMs

Despite their strong reasoning capabilities and extensive world knowledge, Large Language Models (LLMs) frequently generate plans that violate task constraints, undermining their reliability in real-world applications. This deficiency arises from a lack of systematic mechanisms to incorporate constraint information during the generation process.

Blueprint First, Model Second: A Framework for Deterministic LLM Workflow

arXiv:2508. 02721v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While powerful, the inherent non-determinism of large language model (LLM) agents limits their application in structured operational environments where procedural fidelity and predictable execution are strict requirements.

Bridging Auxiliary Constraints to Resolve Instruction Following in Large Reasoning Models

arXiv:2606. 03624v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in many tasks, yet they struggle with reliably following multiple instructions, either by failing to satisfy individual constraints or by struggling to balance competing constraints simultaneously.
