The paper introduces the problem of teaching multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to prioritize must‑have requirements over nice‑to‑have ones in autonomous agent tasks. It evaluates current MLLMs on 3,649 realistic service‑scenario problems and finds widespread failures, then proposes First Things First Reinforcement Learning (FTF‑rl) to explicitly optimize reasoning over multi‑priority user requirements, achieving significant performance gains and generalizing to logical and mathematical reasoning benchmarks.

Beacon is a new agentic visual reasoning model that improves multimodal large language models (MLLMs) by better deciding when to use tools and how to use them. It introduces two key concepts—Mode Adaptiveness, which ensures tools are invoked only when necessary, and Tool Effect, which measures the net benefit of tool use— and trains the model with supervised fine‑tuning and reinforcement learning that rewards necessity-aware decisions and expands capability through expert hints. Across 13 benchmarks, Beacon outperforms other open‑source models, achieving the highest average score and the largest net tool‑gain on diagnostic tests.

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.
