MemoryArena is a new evaluation gym that benchmarks agent memory in interdependent multi‑session tasks. Unlike prior benchmarks that test memorization or single‑session action in isolation, MemoryArena requires agents to acquire memory while interacting with the environment and then use that memory to guide future decisions across a range of tasks such as web navigation, planning, information search, and formal reasoning. The benchmark reveals that agents excelling on existing long‑context memory tests perform poorly here, highlighting a gap in current memory evaluation methods.
MemCo introduces a memory‑centric collaboration framework that equips large language model agents with both local and global memory spaces. Local memory preserves environment‑specific details, while global memory captures transferable workflows from local trajectories. During online interaction, MemCo selectively routes relevant memories based on the agent’s state and decision phase, enabling reuse of other agents’ experiences without over‑generalizing environment‑specific information.

arXiv:2607. 09493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic LLM systems that generate code through multi-turn tool use face a fundamental context problem: each session starts from zero, discarding the configuration choices, domain constraints, data schemas, and tool-use patterns that made previous sessions productive.

AdaMem introduces adaptive memory policies that allow personalized agents to decide what information to write into long‑term memory based on user preferences for each interaction context. Each policy is updated from periodic feedback and controls subsequent memory writing, aiming to improve relevance and reduce unnecessary memory persistence. In experiments on AdaMem‑Bench, AdaMem raises QA accuracy from 80.0% to 84.35% while cutting persistent memory by 9.27%, though models still struggle to execute policies reliably.

arXiv:2607. 05794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term user memory is essential for personalized conversational agents, yet many memory systems still expose memory through passive retrieval interfaces, making the model a consumer of pre-selected evidence.
Long-horizon tool agents are bottlenecked by how their context grows toward the limits of the context window. Recent systems make context management agent- or system-controlled, but they either learn a compression policy that discards evidence or manage context in a layer the agent never sees.
