RouteRepair is a method that diagnoses specific weaknesses in large language model (LLM)-generated routing heuristics by evaluating performance at the instance level and then applies targeted modifications to the heuristic components that are failing, while preserving components that already perform well. It combines routing evidence, solver behavior, and program context to set bounded repair objectives and validates each change through matched parent-child evaluation of failure recovery and collateral degradation. Experiments on the traveling salesman problem (TSP) and capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) show significant reductions in optimality gaps and route costs, demonstrating that failure-aware, evidence-constrained refinement can improve routing heuristics on difficult instances while maintaining performance on easier cases.
