One-shot federated learning (OSFL) addresses the communication overhead of federated learning by limiting training to a single round, but doing so without sacrificing model quality is non-trivial, particularly when client data distributions diverge. Recent work has addressed this challenge by aggregating client knowledge on the server through the construction of transferable synthetic datasets or distillates.
The paper introduces Federated Agent Optimization (FAO), a framework for enabling large language model agents to improve collaboratively while keeping raw data, trajectories, and private knowledge local. FAO treats agent capabilities—such as memory, tools, rewards, skills, and structured knowledge—as a multi‑objective optimization space that balances utility, privacy leakage, and communication cost. It outlines methods for abstracting, protecting, aggregating, and adapting private experience into transferable capabilities, and highlights key challenges and future research directions for trustworthy federated agent systems.

arXiv:2606. 04067v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As LLMs become increasingly woven into everyday workflows, user queries sent to cloud hosted LLMs routinely mix task-essential content with task non-essential sensitive disclosures, yet type based PII redaction is context agnostic and may raise two issues: over disclosing untyped sensitive context and over removing answer bearing spans.

Tokenized Key-Gated Adapter Routing (Locket) is a framework that embeds fine‑grained, policy‑driven access control into large language models by training lightweight LoRA adapters for different privacy policies. A gating module associates a learned keyed entry token with a specific adapter, allowing authorized tokens to unlock private knowledge while invalid or missing tokens trigger privacy‑preserving adapters that redact or sanitize sensitive content. Experiments on datasets such as Enron, ECHR, and Yelp with models like Qwen3, Llama‑3.2, and Gemma‑2‑2B show that Locket maintains perplexity comparable to fine‑tuning when the correct token is provided, and significantly reduces PII leakage when the token is absent or invalid, without sacrificing utility.
