Historical tool-use trajectories provide valuable experience for large language model (LLM) agents to plan and coordinate tool usage. Existing approaches directly construct tool-level graphs from these trajectories, but the resulting graphs remain tied to specific tools and are hard to generalize across tool sets.

UniToolCall introduces a unified framework for tool-use in large language model agents, standardizing toolset construction, dataset generation, and evaluation. The framework aggregates over 22,000 tools and creates a hybrid training corpus of more than 390,000 instances by combining ten public datasets with synthetically generated, structurally controlled trajectories. It models diverse interaction patterns—single‑hop vs. multi‑hop, single‑turn vs. multi‑turn, serial vs. parallel execution—and adds an Anchor Linkage mechanism to enforce cross‑turn dependencies, while converting seven public benchmarks into a common Query–Action–Observation–Answer format for fine‑grained evaluation.
The paper introduces Tool Primitives, a design that replaces rigid API schemas with natural language interfaces for tool calling, enabling seamless inter-tool communication. It builds ToolFace, a repository of over 25,000 functions that LLMs can dynamically retrieve, and HEART, a harness engineering framework that orchestrates tool use with planning, routing, and verification. Experiments show HEART outperforms fine‑tuned models and leading commercial LLMs while cutting API costs by up to 85%.

ToolCUA is an end‑to‑end agent that learns to optimally orchestrate GUI actions and tool calls for Computer Use Agents. It introduces a staged training pipeline that first scales interleaved GUI‑tool trajectories from static GUI data, then bootstraps decision making with single‑turn reinforcement learning, and finally refines performance via online agentic RL guided by a tool‑efficient path reward. On the OSWorld‑MCP benchmark, ToolCUA achieves 46.85% accuracy, a 66% relative improvement over the baseline and a 3.9% gain over GUI‑only models, setting a new state of the art for comparable‑scale models.
The paper introduces complete cyclic subtask graphs for large language model agents, enabling a workflow controller where all subtasks are fully connected and a unified agent selects transitions based on natural‑language criteria. It evaluates task‑specific and benchmark‑generic cyclic graphs on TextCraft, ALFWorld, and Finance‑Agent, comparing them to ReAct and dependency‑directed workflows, and identifies three distinct workflow signatures that influence the effectiveness of cyclic routing. The study also provides a workflow‑signature matrix, robustness analysis, token‑cost accounting, and failure‑mode structure, concluding that cyclic subtask graphs serve as a diagnostic tool to determine when flexible backtracking is worthwhile versus when simpler controllers suffice.
arXiv:2606. 04494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Biomedical agents promise to automate complex biological workflows, yet current systems face two fundamental bottlenecks: bioinformatics tools are highly heterogeneous in interfaces and execution environments, while agent planning still relies on flat prompt-retrieved tool descriptions.
