Scrouting: Cost-Aware Routing of Coding Agents by Scouting the Repository First

arXiv:2608. 04804v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Frontier language models can resolve repository-level software issues, but each attempt is expensive, and existing routers select a model from the issue text alone.

LLMs Can Predict Failure Risk, But Struggle to Predict Which Collaboration Protocol Pays Off: Cost-Aware Protocol Routing Across Reasoning Tasks

arXiv:2608. 14927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent large language model (LLM) systems can improve reasoning by spending more computation, but deployment requires deciding when extra collaboration is worth its cost.

Scores Are Not Decisions: Cost-Aware Stopping for Tool Acquisition in LLM Agents

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.

Agentic Routing: The Harness-Native Data Flywheel

arXiv:2607. 11399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model agents are increasingly executed not by a single model call, but by an execution harness that manages observation, context, control, action, state, and verification.

Agent-as-a-Router: Agentic Model Routing for Coding Tasks

arXiv:2606. 22902v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Real-world users typically have access to multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) from different providers, and these LLMs often excel at distinct domains, yet none dominate all.

Claw-SWE-Bench: A Benchmark for Evaluating OpenClaw-style Agent Harnesses on Coding Tasks

arXiv:2606. 12344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: General-purpose agents such as OpenClaw are increasingly used as autonomous tool users, but their coding ability is difficult to measure under SWE-bench: a generic agent does not by itself satisfy the clean Docker workspace, patch, and prediction contract required for scoring.
