arXiv:2606. 29538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Skills are a useful abstraction for software agents, turning human and agent experience into reusable procedural knowledge.
arXiv:2605. 13527v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reusable skills have become a core substrate for improving agent capabilities, yet most existing skill packages encode reusable behavior primarily as textual prompts, executable code, or learned routines.
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. 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:2606. 16769v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are commonly distributed as SKILL.
arXiv:2603. 12056v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal agents can now tackle complex reasoning tasks with diverse tools, yet they still suffer from inefficient tool use and inflexible orchestration in open-ended settings.
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:2603. 25158v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on domain-specific skills, yet manually authoring such skills does not scale, and skills generated purely from parametric knowledge often miss critical operational pitfalls.
arXiv:2604. 24594v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) evolve into agentic problem solvers, they increasingly rely on external, reusable skills to handle tasks beyond their native parametric capabilities.
arXiv:2606. 01993v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Abundant procedural knowledge on the Web holds great potential for helping agents solve long-horizon tasks.
arXiv:2606. 06087v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agent systems increasingly use textual skills to encode reusable task procedures, but injecting these skills into the prompt at every step incurs substantial context overhead and exposes skill content as plaintext.
arXiv:2608. 08907v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Thinking with images allows a multimodal model to compensate for limited perception by invoking visual tools through code.
arXiv:2608. 14032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing multimodal RAG methods often flatten structured documents into isolated text and image units, weakening the source organization and local text-image logic needed for faithful evidence selection and placement.
