arXiv:2607. 14896v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Addressing a structural-engineering request requires more than a single answer; it requires a chain of interdependent artifacts: interpreted requirements, a computable model, validation records, solver outputs, code-check records, and a final report.

arXiv:2608. 10039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic workflows have become an important abstraction for building reliable LLM-based automation systems by organizing large language models (LLMs), tools, and control logic into explicit execution structures.

Hybrid Semantic Tool Discovery for Enterprise MCP Gateway presents SCOUT, a system that addresses two major challenges in large language model (LLM) agent tool usage: a context‑engineering bottleneck and a tool discoverability barrier. SCOUT reframes tool exposure as a context‑selection problem, injecting only relevant tools into the model’s context window and providing two MCP meta‑tools—tool_search and execute_tool—to perform hybrid retrieval via BM25 and dense vector search. In production at PayPal, SCOUT cuts MCP tool‑token consumption by 99%, dramatically reducing per‑query inference cost while remaining model‑agnostic and requiring no client‑side changes.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP), introduced by Anthropic in November 2024, defines a standardized interface for connecting large language models (LLMs) to external tools, data sources, and services. Within months of release, hundreds of community-built MCP servers appeared on GitHub, but no software-maintenance literature has yet described how the ecosystem is being structured in production.

The paper investigates whether locally deployed large language models can automate hardware design workflows that involve repetitive, dependency-ordered operations using specialized tools. A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server is created to emulate a proprietary hardware design tool, and a benchmark tests single and multi-step edits, invalid requests, misspelled prompts, and multi-server contexts. Seven open-source models are evaluated across different pipeline choices, revealing that strong models can nearly fully cover expected calls, but reliability hinges on task structure and agent configuration, with comprehensive tool descriptions reducing failures and multi-agent setups aiding weaker models at the cost of extra calls.

HoliBench is a modular benchmarking and deployment toolkit that jointly measures accuracy, latency, and energy for foundation models across a wide range of devices, from single-board computers to GPU servers. It provides a platform abstraction layer that calibrates cross-device measurements and supports multiple model modalities, inference engines, and quantization levels. Using HoliBench, the authors evaluated 20 models on 7 device types, revealing tradeoffs such as limited latency gains from quantization on low‑precision hardware and diminishing accuracy returns relative to energy consumption, while also showing that single-model profiles can predict multi-model pipeline performance within a few percent.
