arXiv:2607. 10059v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent systems based on large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for autonomous tasks, yet existing evaluations mostly focus on task success rather than whether agents know when to abstain.
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:2607. 16345v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern agentic systems increasingly rely on skills: installable packages of natural language and code that teach an LLM agent to perform a domain task.
TRUSS is a framework that generates and verifies automated agent skills, ensuring they are both functionally effective and safe. It first checks functional claims against evidence and evaluates artifacts against nine safety properties, then tests admitted skills in a controlled environment to capture execution traces and identify failures. The approach achieves perfect precision and recall in vulnerability detection, significantly reduces attack success rates, and boosts task effectiveness and security rates in skill generation benchmarks.

arXiv:2606. 04990v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM)-based agents increasingly solve complex tasks by interacting with external tools, retrieval systems, memory modules, environments, and other agents.
TRUSS is a framework that generates and verifies automated agent skills, ensuring they are both functionally effective and safe. It evaluates candidate skills against source evidence and nine safety properties, then tests them in a controlled environment to capture execution traces and identify failures. The system iteratively refines skills based on these results, achieving high precision in vulnerability detection and significantly improving task performance and security rates.
The paper introduces Zep Agent Skills, a production service that autonomously compiles and curates procedural memory for large language model agents by converting verified execution traces into versioned skills. It records each task attempt as a trace, uses a compiler with Reflector and Curator roles to transform verified traces into skills, and applies admission gates and search ranking based on verified outcomes. The open Agent Skills format, originally from Anthropic, allows any host to load compiled skills, and evaluation on several benchmarks shows significant performance gains for weaker executor models without additional training.
Navalia is a framework that advances cowork agents by combining verifiable task synthesis with long‑horizon post‑training. It selects supporting evidence from corporate financial reports, builds executable computation chains, and uses independent LLM review and programmatic checks to ensure evidence consistency and answer correctness. The verified tasks are then used for trajectory collection, supervised fine‑tuning, and reinforcement learning, yielding consistent performance gains over the base model across five financial and office‑task benchmarks.
SkillGym is an automatic pipeline that generates verifiable environments for training skill-use agents. It crawls internet skills, filters for reproducible workflows, and uses a builder‑reviewer process to create difficulty‑controlled tasks with reference solutions and verifiers. The system builds 6.8k environments, collects 19k successful trajectories, and fine‑tunes LLMs from 2B to 122B parameters, improving performance and skill invocation rates.

The paper introduces WorkForge, a scalable synthesis framework that builds verifiable work‑agent environments from real‑world resources. By extracting factual anchors from expert workflows and associated files, WorkForge generates task instructions, solution plans, and verifiers that remain traceable to observable workspace evidence. The authors constructed 16.7K environments across 40 professional domains, demonstrating significant performance gains for large language models such as Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-Base and Qwen3.5-27B.
