Beyond Domains: Reusing Web Skills via Transferable Interaction Patterns

arXiv:2606. 17645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) web agents are usually deployed as tool callers: each turn, the model reads a fresh page observation and emits one structured tool action.

SCAFFOLD: Self-Improving Web Agents via Recursive Parametric Skill Abstraction

SCAFFOLD is a self‑improving framework for visual web agents that automatically induces parametric, executable skills from successful trajectories and organizes them into a recursively composed hierarchy. It compresses the skill library using a minimum‑description‑length criterion and behavioral equivalence checks, and periodically distills these skills back into model weights to internalize the abstractions. Experiments on WebArena, VisualWebArena, and Online‑Mind2Web show that SCAFFOLD raises success rates by 11.1–17.2 absolute points over the best skill‑augmented baseline and continues to improve across five self‑improvement iterations without collapsing the library.

SkillDAG: Self-Evolving Typed Skill Graphs for LLM Skill Selection at Scale

arXiv:2606. 03056v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents adopt large skill libraries, selecting the right subset becomes a structural problem rather than a similarity-matching one: skills depend on, conflict with, specialize, or duplicate one another, a structure invisible to both full enumeration and embedding similarity.

TRIAGE: Three-level Routing and Intelligent Agent Guidance for Efficient Execution

TRIAGE introduces a three-level routing framework for Large Language Model agents that reduces token consumption by reusing historical execution trajectories. The system classifies queries into direct reuse, skill substitution, and full ReAct levels, achieving significant token savings in large-scale security monitoring and cross-domain benchmarks. An automatic skill extraction mechanism further refines reusable patterns, creating a positive feedback loop that improves efficiency over time.
