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.
arXiv:2607. 16617v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to automate data-processing workflows, yet coding agents typically produce scripts that are not automatically materialized as persistent, editable platform artifacts.

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.

Terminal-Universe is a framework that converts large collections of terminal-based agent trajectories into reusable, executable environments. By replaying recorded file operations and filling missing files with a completion agent, it reconstructs the original workspace and generates new tasks, scaling them in breadth (cross-workspace queries) and depth (multi-round interactions). The resulting 37.3k task-sufficient environments enable significant performance gains when fine‑tuning language models on terminal‑centric benchmarks.

arXiv:2607. 20999v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent Skills package reusable procedural knowledge as external artifacts for frozen language-model agents, yet existing optimizers do not jointly resolve where a failure occurs in a workflow, which mechanism caused it, and how relevant knowledge from third-party Skills should be reused locally.
