Toollery is a training‑free framework that compresses candidate lists for large language model agents, enabling efficient selection from thousands of skills and tools. It generates user‑intent queries from each skill or tool specification, builds a retrieval index, and limits online selection to a compact top‑k set before the LLM makes its final decision. Evaluations on the SkillRouter benchmark, BFCL‑V4, and a proprietary smart‑cockpit dataset show that Toollery improves recall and end‑to‑end selection while keeping selection costs bounded.

SkillBrowser is a Meta‑Skill‑managed framework that allows large language model agents to identify their current capability needs, formulate targeted queries, and selectively load skills on demand. By providing relevant procedural content only when needed, it reduces context pollution and misaligned skill exposure that can disrupt reasoning. Experiments on six SRA‑Bench subsets and five LLMs show that SkillBrowser improves aggregate accuracy over static retrieval and LLM‑based selection, especially for multi‑step tool use, while mitigating accuracy degradation on already‑solvable instances.
SkillFlow is an open, multi-stage retrieval system that helps AI agents selectively load relevant skills from a large library of community-contributed SKILL.md definitions. The pipeline uses dense retrieval, two rounds of cross-encoder reranking, and LLM-based selection to balance recall and precision. Evaluations on SkillsBench and Terminal-Bench show that SkillFlow improves performance when high-quality skills are available, but retrieval alone does not help if the corpus lacks executable skills for the target domain.

arXiv:2606. 03056v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents adopt large skill libraries, selecting the right subset becomes a structural problem rather than a similarity-matching one: skills depend on, conflict with, specialize, or duplicate one another, a structure invisible to both full enumeration and embedding similarity.
