arXiv:2606. 03467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based multi-agent systems exhibit remarkable collaborative capabilities in complex multi-step tasks.
arXiv:2602.02475v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: AI agents often fail in ways that are difficult to localize because executions are probabilistic, long-horizon, multi-agent, and mediated by noisy...
arXiv:2606. 00765v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents increasingly solve complex tasks through long trajectories involving reasoning steps, tool calls, and inter-agent communication.
The paper introduces Continual Search, an iterative framework that guides large language models to persistently search for diagnostic evidence in long AI agent execution logs, addressing the limitations of one-shot judgments. Evaluated on four existing RCA benchmarks and a new large-scale dataset called MegaRCA-Mix, Continual Search consistently boosts attribution performance, achieving a 40% F1 improvement for GPT‑5.5 on MegaRCA‑Mix. The results show that effective search can outweigh raw model scale, enabling lower-tier models to outperform higher-tier ones in root‑cause attribution tasks.
arXiv:2608. 06346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agentic systems have shown remarkable capabilities in complex domains, while suffering from cascading errors and difficulty in debugging.
The paper introduces DCFA, a training‑free framework for attributing failures in large language model‑based multi‑agent systems. DCFA uses a global module to build causal‑inspired dependency graphs from system traces, pinpointing the earliest decisive error, and a local module that refines this attribution through counterfactual reasoning. Experiments on the Who&When benchmark across six LLMs demonstrate that DCFA improves step‑level accuracy by up to 8.27% over existing baselines.
arXiv:2606. 05414v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Early failure alerting requires deciding, while a dialog or agent trajectory is still unfolding, whether to flag it as likely to fail.
arXiv:2608.29646v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM)-based agents have shown strong potential in solving complex tasks through multi-step reasoning, yet they remain vulnerable t...
arXiv:2608. 08570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rejection sampling fine-tuning (RFT) is widely used to train code agents by generating trajectories on verifiable software engineering tasks, retaining those that pass the tests, and fine-tuning on the successful rollouts.
The paper examines whether internal representations of agentic systems can better indicate task success than traditional confidence measures. It introduces two methods—Latent Trajectory Dynamics (LTD) and Action Representation Probe (ARP)—that analyze changes in residual-stream representations and action-level representations, respectively. Experiments on Bash, SQL, and Python benchmarks with Qwen and DeepSeek models show these methods outperform conventional surface-level and sequence-based calibration baselines, offering a zero‑overhead reliability monitor without prompt changes or multiple rollouts.
arXiv:2602. 06841v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Over the last decade, Explainable AI has primarily focused on interpreting individual model predictions, producing post-hoc explanations that relate inputs to outputs under a fixed decision structure.
The paper introduces AGENTSCOPE, a neuro‑symbolic method for diagnosing failures in large language model agents. It abstracts agent trajectories into structured representations and employs neural invariants to define behavior properties. Using LLM‑guided reasoning on these abstractions, AGENTSCOPE identifies both the failure step and its type, outperforming existing techniques on several datasets.
