arXiv:2607. 26120v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs)-powered multi-agent systems are increasingly deployed in mixed-motive environments, where agents operate under asymmetric information and strategic deception due to conflicting or hidden objectives.

arXiv:2604. 08169v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Alignment in LLMs is more brittle than commonly assumed: misalignment can be induced by adversarial prompts, benign fine-tuning, emergent misalignment, and goal misgeneralization.

Fig (Finding Interactions in Games) is an agentic system that performs targeted elicitation interventions on game environments to study multiagent behaviors. It takes a natural‑language behavior description, decomposes it into sub‑behaviors, generates or selects appropriate social games, and applies interventions to the game engine, opponents, instructions, and context. The system evaluates model behavior using mechanical checks and synthetic rubric judgments, and human review validates the interventions, generated games, and evaluation mechanisms. In experiments, models attempted the target behavior in 45.2% of episodes on average for six test behaviors, and Fig’s interventions increased attempt rates by 10.9% compared to matched control games.
