The paper investigates how to efficiently repair stale key-value (KV) caches in retrieval‑augmented generation systems after document edits. It proposes a budgeted in‑place recomputation approach and evaluates training‑free position‑selection policies on a factual RAG benchmark. Across three model families, a contiguous edit‑local window consistently recovers most of the post‑edit answer quality while being 13–21 times faster than a full re‑prefill, though its effectiveness diminishes when answer‑bearing text moves downstream.
The paper introduces MERIT, a training‑free agent that uses an online dual‑polarity memory of oracle‑verified corrections and failed attempts to improve LLM agent repair without updating parameters. MERIT retrieves only finalized memories, classifies failures, and employs a hybrid lexical‑dense retriever before the frozen model generates revisions. Experiments with Qwen2.5‑7B‑Instruct show that MERIT raises execution accuracy on the Spider benchmark from 66.34 % to 69.79 % and on BIRD from 47.35 % to 48.44 %, with varying evidence across datasets.

The paper introduces REM (Reusable Experience Memory), a framework that manages the lifecycle of experience for large language model agents performing long-horizon coding tasks. REM consolidates completed trajectories into compact, phase-structured documents, injects them at task start, and evicts them after a single exposure, making the memory system responsive to the agent’s needs. Experiments on repository-level bug fixing show REM outperforms state‑of‑the‑art memory systems in retrieval accuracy and task resolution while reducing cost.
arXiv:2608. 10502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent memory lets language-model agents reuse information across sessions, but it also makes errors durable: a poisoned, stale, or misattributed record can alter reasoning, tool use, answers, and subsequent memory writes.

arXiv:2607. 26117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-repair - returning a failed program to the model together with its test output and asking for a correction - is a standard component of code agents, and is almost always evaluated against a baseline that does not retry at all.
The paper investigates how memory systems can answer a current query correctly yet fail to retain distinctions needed for later updates. Using a paired‑history audit, the authors evaluate 24 history pairs across six synthetic mechanisms and two model backends, achieving perfect reveal accuracy on DeepSeek and high accuracy on GLM. Record‑level audits reveal specific failures in structured reveal memories and frontier late‑reference adequacy, and the authors test a label‑equivariant repair that only partially restores correctness.
