Computer-using agents can perceive rich software interfaces, yet their decisions often lack visual procedural memory: they may recognize individual controls without identifying which familiar workflow is active, which control matters next, or what evidence would confirm progress. Raw interaction traces preserve such information but are long and noisy to condition on, whereas text-only skills often omit the visual state that makes a procedure applicable.

arXiv:2606. 01619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic reinforcement learning (RL) enables LLM agents to improve continuously from environment rewards, yet the resulting policies do not systematically accumulate reusable strategies that generalize across tasks.

The paper examines how skill representations influence selection in a multimodal video agent harness called Tinycloud. It compares two types of skill representations—tool-skills and workflow-skills—and two prompt surfaces—full inlined bodies and one-line listings—across three exposure regimes. The study finds that full autoload exposure consistently selects the correct skill, while partial exposure can cause lexical competition that misroutes tasks, highlighting that in-prompt exposure is not always beneficial.

Teach-and-Grow Learning (TGL) is an agent-centered architecture that transforms a few successful demonstrations into reusable Skill Blocks, enabling a robot to compose, execute, and revise behaviors in new scenes without task-specific policy retraining. The system maintains a Skill Library and structured Experience Memory to capture successes, failures, and repairs, allowing persistent reuse and agent-directed adaptation. Evaluation on the LIBERO benchmark shows state-of-the-art performance, and the authors propose a scaling-law hypothesis suggesting that accumulated reusable experience reduces future-task error and teaching demand following a power-law trend.
