Workflow-to-Skill: Skill Creation via Routing-Workflow-Semantics-Attachments Decomposition

arXiv:2606. 06893v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents increasingly rely on Skills to encode procedural knowledge, yet high-quality Skills remain costly to hand-write.

Trace2Skill: Distill Trajectory-Local Lessons into Transferable Agent Skills

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.

SKILL-DISCO: Distilling and Compiling Agent Traces into Reusable Procedural Skills

Agents often repeatedly solve similar task instances from scratch, leading to unnecessary reasoning cost and long execution traces. Prior work has explored workflow reuse and executable skill induction, but it remains unclear which task scenarios admit procedural skills and how the shared procedural structure should be represented across successful traces.

Anything2Skill: Compiling External Knowledge into Reusable Skills for Agents

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.

SkillAligner: Treating Retrieved Skills as Adaptable Drafts at Execution Time

arXiv:2608. 06880v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: General-purpose skills promise reusable procedural knowledge for language agents, yet semantic relevance does not guarantee execution utility: a retrieved skill may encode assumptions that conflict with the current task, execution environment, or other retrieved skills.
