The paper introduces ARC, a lightweight hierarchical policy that learns to configure LLM‑based agent systems on a per‑query basis by treating each configuration as a temporally extended option in a semi‑Markov decision process. Unlike fixed templates or hand‑tuned heuristics, ARC dynamically selects workflows, tools, token budgets, and prompts tailored to the difficulty of each query. Experiments on reasoning, tool‑use, and agentic benchmarks show that ARC outperforms budget‑matched tool‑augmented LLMs, boosting reasoning accuracy by 31.3%, tool‑use accuracy by 13.95%, and doubling success on the τ‑Bench Airline Pass task from 9.0% to 18.0%.

arXiv:2607. 15660v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While LLM agents demonstrate strong reasoning abilities in compact and well-defined scenarios, they struggle to maintain robustness and effectiveness when faced with large-scale, diverse, and dynamic real-world environments that demand seamless tool integration.

LLM-powered data agents are playing an increasingly important role in data-driven decision making. However, existing data agents struggle to generalize to unseen data environments and analytical workflows, especially in heterogeneous enterprise settings.
The unprecedented surge in Earth observation data volume and diversity has exposed a critical bottleneck for traditional manual workflows, catalyzing the emergence of Remote Sensing (RS) Agents. Howev...
AgentMercury is a scalable framework that synthesizes executable environments from high‑level business scenarios instead of task‑specific benchmarks. It creates a persistent world with entities, services, tools, and invariants, allowing diverse tasks and interaction trajectories to emerge naturally. The authors generated 4,783 environments across 14 industries and 50 countries, and training reinforcement‑learning agents on them improved performance on enterprise workflows and out‑of‑domain benchmarks, while the construction process itself can be learned to increase authoring success.

The article surveys LLM-based agentic reasoning frameworks, presenting a unified formal language that categorizes them into single-agent, tool-based, and multi-agent methods. It reviews application scenarios in scientific discovery, healthcare, software engineering, society, economics, and general-purpose tasks, and compares the distinct features and evaluation strategies of each category. The survey highlights the rapid development of complex agentic systems in real-world contexts.

The paper introduces GEARS, a framework that treats ranking optimization as an autonomous discovery process within a programmable experimentation environment. By encapsulating ranking expert knowledge into reusable agent skills, GEARS allows operators to steer systems through high-level intent personalization rather than static model selection. The framework also includes validation hooks to enforce statistical robustness and filter out brittle policies, and experimental results show that GEARS consistently finds near‑Pareto‑efficient policies while maintaining deployment stability.

arXiv:2608. 15591v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents deployed in production environments face a fundamental tension: the agent's behavior is frozen at deployment time, while the business rules and edge cases it must handle continue to evolve.
