The paper introduces HiPS, a hierarchical strategy co‑evolution framework for memory‑augmented agents that separates memory management into a globally shared foundation and a user‑specific adaptive tier. HiPS uses a Universal Strategy to capture shared principles from cross‑persona trajectories, Persona Delta Distillation to create tailored rules for users deviating from general patterns, and Cross‑Level Rule Flow to dynamically adjust the boundary between global and personal rules. Experiments show that this approach consistently outperforms existing memory‑augmented baselines.
The paper introduces PRISM, a new framework for evaluating how well large language models (LLMs) maintain persona fidelity in dynamic dialogue. PRISM reframes the task as a structured inverse inference problem grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics, breaking persona fidelity into Task Framing, Interpersonal Stance, and Linguistic Style dimensions. Experiments demonstrate that PRISM produces more accurate and stable judgments than existing holistic or static psychometric methods, offering a more reliable and auditable evaluation process.

Conversational agents are increasingly embedded in human collaborative work, yet they remain fundamentally passive and reactive: they respond to explicit user requests rather than proactively recognizing moments when a team would benefit from timely intervention as human collaborators often do. This reactive design substantially limits the use of agents as active participants in multi-user collaboration, where disagreements, ambiguous goals, forgotten constraints, underspecified plans, discussion loops, and imbalanced participation can gradually undermine group progress.
