arXiv:2607. 24459v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models increasingly solve scientific-computing tasks, but executable feedback from one problem rarely becomes durable capability on subsequent problems.

SkillGLoW introduces a new way for large language model agents to self‑improve by consolidating procedural skills shared across related tasks. Instead of storing all skills in a single global document or a flat per‑task pool, SkillGLoW aggregates local skills into procedural families, compresses them into de‑instantiated global priors, and regenerates instance‑specific details on demand. Experiments on four diverse benchmarks show that these priors improve performance by an average of 17.2 points over a no‑skill baseline, are more compact than per‑task pools, and enable better transfer to unseen tasks.
arXiv:2606. 26671v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training alignment determines the reasoning and human preference following capabilities of large language models, yet most existing works withhold detailed data construction, filtering rules and training recipes, which hinders community reproducibility and lightweight model optimization.
SCICONVBENCH is a benchmark designed to evaluate large language models (LLMs) on multi‑turn clarification tasks in computational science. It focuses on two key abilities: eliciting missing information (disambiguation) and resolving contradictory requests (inconsistency resolution) across four domains—fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, materials science, and partial differential equations. The benchmark pairs a structured task ontology with a rubric‑based evaluation framework, measuring LLM performance in clarification behavior, conversational grounding, and final‑specification fidelity, and reveals that even top models only resolve about 52.7% of disambiguation cases in fluid mechanics while often making ungrounded assumptions.
arXiv:2608. 19799v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Software increasingly functions as part of the scientific instrument itself, making failures in scientific code capable of compromising not only program behavior but also the evidence underlying scientific conclusions.
arXiv:2606. 01667v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Test-time scaling has become a major way to improve large language model reasoning, but its orchestration has remained designer-engineered: a fixed sample budget, a fixed refinement loop, a fixed scoring rule, or a fixed search policy decides how compute is spent, leaving the model in charge of solving but not of orchestration.
arXiv:2606. 29315v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to take actions in the real world and support human decision-making, yet most agents rely on parametric knowledge, fixed post-training data, retrieval, or search.
SciWalker is a framework that automatically synthesizes scientific coding problems by sampling operator chains from scientific library interfaces and using execution feedback to refine generated problem statements, solutions, and tests. It produces 8,178 high‑quality problems across five scientific domains and 32 subdomains, and training a large language model with these problems improves its scientific coding accuracy by nearly 10 percentage points. The approach combines structured workflow composition with verification and quality review to enable scalable, scientifically grounded task generation.

arXiv:2607. 19104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) excel at general-purpose code generation, yet how well they handle scientific code remains an open question.
RankEvolve is an auto‑research framework that evolves generative ranking models by orchestrating multiple large‑language‑model coding agents through an Executable Operating Protocol (EOP). The system compiles a state machine that enforces phases, gates, branches, and loops, while a meta‑meta‑harness lets agents review and repair each other’s code. In budget‑matched experiments, heterogeneous composition of agents raised execution accuracy from 45.8 % to 62.5 % and reduced silent critical‑defect rates, achieving notable gains on the HSTU recommender and other benchmarks.
