arXiv:2607. 08894v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents have shown promise in multi-step planning tasks, but existing approaches like LATS (Language Agent Tree Search) and ReAct rely heavily on LLM inference during planning, leading to high computational costs and stochastic behavior.
Large Language Model (LLM) agents have shown promise in multi-step planning tasks, but existing approaches like LATS (Language Agent Tree Search) and ReAct rely heavily on LLM inference during planning, leading to high computational costs and stochastic behavior. We present \textbf{GATS} (Graph-Augmented Tree Search), a planning framework that combines systematic UCB1-based tree search with a layered world model to eliminate LLM calls during inference while achieving superior planning performance.
LLM‑BabyBench transforms the BabyAI gridworld into a fully observable, purely textual setting that isolates planning as the sole source of failure. By serialising the entire grid, providing formal instructions, and validating actions deterministically, the benchmark introduces the PPD suite—Predict, Plan, and Decompose tasks—each scored with metrics that separate mission understanding from sequencing. Across a range of large language models, simulation accuracy is high while planning success drops sharply beyond a model‑specific horizon, revealing that plan length—not grid size—drives failure and that models often commit to a single corridor‑shaped route without backtracking.
GRASP is a multi-stage planning framework that improves the reliability of large language models on complex tasks. It separates planning into three specialized modules—GenPlan for global macro-guidelines, RevPlan for exploring localized strategies, and VerPlan for multi-criteria evaluation—allowing context isolation and strict macro-regularization. Experiments show GRASP outperforms direct LLM planners by significant margins on datasets such as Natural Plan Calendar Scheduling, ZebraLogic, and SciBench Math, and it mitigates performance collapse in multi-task and dual-task settings.
GRASP is a multi-stage planning framework that separates planning into specialized modules: GenPlan for global macro-guidelines, RevPlan for exploring localized strategies, and VerPlan for multi-criteria evaluation. This strategy-aware approach yields state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on diverse datasets, outperforming direct LLM planners by up to 30.8% on ZebraLogic and reducing multi‑task degradation. GRASP’s context isolation and macro‑regularization also give it a 14.5% edge over frontier reasoning models like GPT‑5‑mini.

arXiv:2606. 30639v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models offer a principled way to equip long-horizon LLM agents with foresight: predictions of action consequences before execution.
Translating natural-language planning intent into verified plans is a longstanding challenge: people communicate goals in language, while classical planners require formal PDDL specifications. Recent agentic frameworks bridge this gap by orchestrating a pool of specialized repair agents inside a verifier-checked refinement loop, but the orchestrator at the centre is itself a prompted frontier LLM, paying a frontier-LLM API call at every refinement step.
CoMAP introduces a framework that jointly evolves textual world models and agent policies through a closed‑loop interaction. At each decision step the world model forecasts future state feedback for candidate actions, while the agent reflects on the reliability of this feedback to refine its action. The resulting on‑policy trajectories are used to self‑distill and update the world model, improving prediction accuracy and long‑horizon decision‑making across embodied planning, web navigation, and tool‑use benchmarks.
