The paper introduces StepLearn, a nonparametric framework for prequential test‑time learning in large language model agents. StepLearn separates immediate use of informative transitions from persistent trust, turning each transition into a hypothesis that guides the next step and only reusing it after prospective validation across episodes. Experiments on WebArena‑Lite and ALFWorld show StepLearn improves success rates by 2.2–12.7 percentage points over the strongest baseline, with benefits evident from the first task attempts.
arXiv:2608. 03206v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) power educational applications from tutoring to essay scoring, but each is a point solution to a single task, and only recently have these point solutions been integrated into agents operating over a learning management system (LMS).
LLM agents are increasingly evaluated on multi-week decision tasks in which the state that drives cost is never directly observed. On such tasks the final cost cannot say why an agent failed: it may have misread the world, or read it correctly and still failed to act (the knowing-doing gap).
