Agent0 is a fully autonomous framework that enables large language model agents to evolve without external data by using a multi‑step co‑evolution process. It pits a curriculum agent against an executor agent, both derived from the same base LLM, where the curriculum agent creates increasingly challenging tasks and the executor learns to solve them. By integrating external tools into the executor’s workflow, the system creates a self‑reinforcing cycle that continuously generates high‑quality curricula, leading to significant gains in reasoning performance—an 18% improvement on mathematical reasoning and 24% on general reasoning for the Qwen3‑8B‑Base model.

The paper argues that large language models need adaptive reasoning rather than fixed reasoning budgets. It shows that over‑reasoning leads to high computational cost without accuracy gains, while under‑reasoning results in incorrect or incomplete solutions. The authors evaluate these failure modes on MATH‑500 and the GAIA benchmark, highlighting the need for dynamic reasoning allocation in agentic AI systems.

CoSkill introduces a unified multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework that jointly trains a Reasoning Agent and a learnable Meta‑Skill Agent over a hierarchical skill library. By treating the meta‑skill workflow as a trainable agent and sharing a single backbone, CoSkill enables end‑to‑end co‑adaptation, allowing the Reasoning Agent to condition actions on retrieved task and step skills while the Meta‑Skill Agent refines those skills based on task performance. Experiments on ALFWorld and WebShop demonstrate that CoSkill outperforms prior skill‑based and RL baselines, achieving higher success rates and improved sample, asymptotic, and wall‑clock efficiency.

The paper introduces a text-based, multi-agent version of the board game Clue to test multi-step deductive reasoning in large language models (LLMs). Six LLM-based agents (GPT‑4o‑mini and Gemini‑2.5‑Flash) play turn‑based games, and a tool‑augmented approach uses a structured possibility matrix to convert implicit game state into explicit remaining possibilities, thereby offloading memory and deductive constraints from the agents. The study compares this tool‑augmented method against a baseline to assess its impact on reasoning quality and task success in a strategic reasoning environment.

The paper introduces a method to improve test-time scaling (TTS) for large language models by using multi-agent systems (MAS) to split long reasoning chains into manageable contexts. A new dataset, M500, containing 500 multi-agent collaborative reasoning traces, is used to fine‑tune open‑source models, enabling them to learn collaborative patterns and outperform their base versions. An adaptive scaling strategy with a "CEO" agent is proposed to dynamically guide reasoning depth, and experiments in the AgentVerse framework confirm the effectiveness of the approach.
