Leyline: KV Cache Directives for Agentic Inference

arXiv:2606. 01065v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern KV cache management assumes the chatbot workload: prompts arrive once and the cache grows append-only, so prefix caching and forward-only eviction are correct by construction.

MiniPIC: Flexible Position-Independent Caching in <100LOC

Retrieval-augmented and agentic workloads repeatedly prefill recurring predictable structured inputs (which we call "spans") such as documents and code files. Yet, prefix caching in engines such as vLLM cannot reuse their KV entries unless they share identical prefixes with another request, while Position-Independent Caching (PIC) implementations within production-grade inference servers typically either require substantial server code changes or keep KV state outside the server, incurring host-to-device transfer overhead.

Workload-Aware Caching for Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv:2607. 20495v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent systems decompose complex tasks into directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of specialized agent executions, creating natural opportunities for caching intermediate results across queries.

KVEraser: Learning to Steer KV Cache for Efficient Localized Context Erasing

arXiv:2606. 17034v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-hoc context erasing over the KV cache is challenging because a local edit has a global consequence: once a span has been processed, its influence propagates into the cached states of all subsequent tokens.
