The paper demonstrates that vision‑language models’ refusal behavior is heavily influenced by whether an image is attached to a request, even when the image is blank or unreadable. Attaching such an image shifts refusal scores by large margins for borderline‑benign prompts while leaving genuinely neutral instructions largely unchanged. This effect varies with image properties, persists across checkpoints, and is not mitigated by explicit instructions to ignore the image.

arXiv:2607. 23191v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs are often conditioned on a design-intent header to steer parametric CAD generation, but whether the model reads that header's content has been tested neither under execution-level scoring nor with a causal control.

The paper investigates how providing execution traces to multimodal judges in agentic video‑generation systems can bias their verdicts. On a benchmark of 109 two‑event clips, traces that falsely report successful tool calls cause large‑language‑model judges to incorrectly accept 78–90 % of failures, while contradictory traces lead to 100 % rejection of correct clips. The effect persists even when judges are instructed to consider only the video frames, indicating that the vulnerability stems from the judges’ learned trust in tool logs rather than the visual content itself.

The paper investigates whether the object selected in a grounded language‑model pipeline actually reaches the reader, a failure that can break the handoff between stages. By auditing 600 HybridQA questions across three selector families, the authors find that exact key lookup and title matching recover the selected object in all 1,463 resolvable records, but body‑only BM25 omits it in 26.6% of cases at cutoff five, while hybrid retrieval with reranking omits it only 1.0%. The study also shows that misalignment between selected and retrieved objects can reduce exact match scores by up to 31 points, and introduces the Returned‑Object Profile (ROP) as a tool for reproducible auditing.

arXiv:2607. 23191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs can be conditioned on a lightweight design-intent header to steer parametric CAD generation, but whether the model actually reads the header's content has not been tested under a metric independent of the conditioning itself, nor with a causal control.
