SkillForge is a framework that breaks down formal code synthesis into reusable atomic skills, each handling a specific subtask such as specification inference, body synthesis, invariant generation, error diagnosis, or repair. A verification-driven harness coordinates these skills by submitting candidates to the Dafny verifier, diagnosing failures, and routing them deterministically to the appropriate repair skill until correctness is achieved or a budget is reached. On a curated benchmark, SkillForge outperforms state‑of‑the‑art agentic and iterative baselines, requiring fewer tokens and lower latency, with ablation studies showing each skill’s measurable contribution and rapid convergence.
arXiv:2606. 32007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study agentic code generation in Dafny, where a model must generate both executable code and the proof artifacts for verification.
arXiv:2606. 06523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Equipping Large Language Models (LLMs) to execute reliable multi-step workflows has become a central challenge in artificial intelligence.
arXiv:2607. 04631v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The cost of producing code is rapidly diminishing with increasingly capable AI agents, while quality assurance of generated programs has not kept pace.
HoarePrompt is a new method that applies program verification concepts to natural language requirements, using large language models to generate step‑by‑step natural language descriptions of program states. It incorporates a few‑shot k‑induction technique to handle loops and then evaluates whether the annotated program satisfies the requirements. On the CoCoClaNeL dataset, HoarePrompt raises the Matthews correlation coefficient by 61% over zero‑shot chain‑of‑thought prompts and by 106% over test‑generation classifiers, with the inductive reasoning component adding a 26% MCC improvement.
arXiv:2604. 01687v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Anthropic proposes the concept of skills for LLM agents to tackle multi-step professional tasks that simple tool invocations cannot address.
The paper introduces MAGS, a multi-agent framework that automatically generates executable programs with formal safety guarantees. MAGS translates LLM-generated code into the verification-aware language Dafny, repairs any safety violations using verifier feedback, and then compiles the verified code back into executable form. Evaluations on 220 diverse examples—including CUDA kernels, terminal scripts, and robotic-arm tasks—show a 100% success rate in producing programs that meet frozen safety specifications, with additional safety and functional tests confirming strong performance across domains.
arXiv:2602. 15983v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural language into optimization code, but silent failures pose a critical risk: code that executes and returns solver-feasible solutions may encode semantically incorrect formulations---a feasibility--correctness gap reaching 90 percentage points on compositional problems.
arXiv:2608. 08570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rejection sampling fine-tuning (RFT) is widely used to train code agents by generating trajectories on verifiable software engineering tasks, retaining those that pass the tests, and fine-tuning on the successful rollouts.
