arXiv:2607. 11399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model agents are increasingly executed not by a single model call, but by an execution harness that manages observation, context, control, action, state, and verification.
arXiv:2607. 22465v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Routing to select large language models (LLMs) with different cost-quality trade-offs has become a fundamental deployment feature of enterprise AI.
The paper introduces STEPGATE, an uncertainty‑aware handoff framework that evaluates each step of a small language model (SLM) agent and selectively escalates difficult steps to a stronger model. On a 52‑task single‑step benchmark, the Qwen2.5‑1.5B/7B pair achieved 82.7% task success with only 30.8% escalation, outperforming local‑only and random escalation baselines. In multi‑turn tests, STEPGATE reached 69.0% trajectory success and 84.0% action success while using only 30.0% cloud actions, demonstrating that step‑level escalation can close much of the performance gap to a stronger backend with fewer remote tokens.

The paper evaluates confidence‑based routing of small‑to‑large language models across multiple tasks, languages, and model families, covering 72 configurations and over 42,000 predictions. It finds that confidence routing improves performance on reading comprehension and topic classification datasets, but offers little benefit on a knowledge‑reasoning benchmark where small models remain confidently wrong. The study also shows that global confidence routing can create large language‑specific performance gaps, which equal‑quota routing mitigates with minimal overall accuracy loss.
