MARS (Multi-Agent Relay of Specialized LLMs) is a prompt-only framework that assigns specialized LLM agents—each focused on a particular algorithmic domain such as dynamic programming, graphs, or geometry—to collaboratively solve competitive programming problems. Retrieval-augmented generation selects a small team of relevant specialists for each problem, and the agents iteratively refine a C++17 solution through sandboxed testing, passing structured packets between them until a final infrastructure-fixer normalizes the code. On the CodeContests benchmark, MARS achieves a pass rate of 0.624 with Gemma 4, improving over direct prompting by 14.4 percentage points while reducing wall‑clock cost and token‑spend variance compared to CodeSIM.

arXiv:2607. 27083v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents increasingly depend on diverse external services such as search engines, databases, and connectors, agent harnesses face a fundamental tool-selection challenge: acquiring too few tools leaves the task under-informed, while too many adds cost, context load, and privacy exposure.

The paper investigates why large‑language‑model coding agents rarely request a second chunk of tool output, focusing on the precision‑at‑1 rate ($p_1$) of the gold item appearing first in the first chunk. In a benchmark of 500 software‑engineering tasks, the authors compare six value functions and find that increasing $p_1$ does not systematically improve downstream accuracy; the agent can recover the correct answer from any position within the chunk. Adding file‑metadata signals to a keyword scorer actually reduces $p_1$, while a parameter‑free keyword scorer improves $p_1$ but still fails to boost overall accuracy.
