Agent skills are increasingly optimized by automated feedback loops, producing long structured artifacts whose internal value remains unclear. We study skill valuation: assigning credit to the internal units of a fixed skill, such as rules, examples, scripts, and heuristics, under a fixed agent and held-out task distribution.
arXiv:2608. 13173v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are crucial external instructions that enable language agents to execute long procedural tasks such as coding or document processing.
arXiv:2608. 06891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills provide reusable procedural knowledge that helps agents solve specialized tasks.
arXiv:2606. 17819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agent skills -- structured, reusable knowledge artifacts that augment LLM agent capabilities -- have been rapidly adopted in industry, yet their cross-domain impact and use across commercial and open-source models remain under-studied, and no reusable methodology exists for evaluating an individual skill.
arXiv:2606. 20659v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agent skills encode reusable procedural knowledge for large language model (LLM) agents, and existing benchmarks show that such skills can improve task-level performance.
arXiv:2607. 10113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents increasingly store reusable procedures outside the model.
arXiv:2606. 01139v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are procedural artifacts that enable LLM agents to execute workflows, verify constraints, and recover from failures.
arXiv:2606. 09316v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enables agents to access external knowledge at inference time, but it primarily retrieves fragmented declarative evidence, leaving agents to repeatedly infer task procedures from passages, manuals, examples, logs, or trajectories.
arXiv:2608. 11079v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-evolving agents accumulate reusable skills by appending successful procedures and failure fixes.
arXiv:2608. 05604v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly act as agents whose procedural knowledge is stored in reusable skill packages and loaded at inference time.
arXiv:2605. 18401v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long-horizon LLM agents generate traces that could become reusable experience, but raw trajectories are noisy, local, and hard to govern.
arXiv:2606. 16774v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Equipping Large Language Model (LLM) agents with effective skills is crucial for solving complex tasks in real-world systems like OpenClaw.
