MemoryArena: Benchmarking Agent Memory in Interdependent Multi-Session Agentic Tasks

MemoryArena is a new evaluation gym that benchmarks agent memory in interdependent multi‑session tasks. Unlike prior benchmarks that test memorization or single‑session action in isolation, MemoryArena requires agents to acquire memory while interacting with the environment and then use that memory to guide future decisions across a range of tasks such as web navigation, planning, information search, and formal reasoning. The benchmark reveals that agents excelling on existing long‑context memory tests perform poorly here, highlighting a gap in current memory evaluation methods.

Learning What to Retain: Gated-Memory Routing for Efficient Collaboration in Multi-Agent LLM Systems

The paper introduces Gated-Memory Routing, a method for efficient collaboration in multi‑agent large language model systems. It uses a learned execution memory with write and retrieval gates to keep only non‑redundant reasoning steps, and an adaptive halting controller to stop execution when enough evidence is gathered. Experiments on five reasoning and code‑generation benchmarks show the approach achieves higher accuracy and reduces inference cost by 31.9% compared to the strongest baseline.

OpenWebRL: Demystifying Online Multi-turn Reinforcement Learning for Visual Web Agents

Building capable visual web agents requires long-horizon reasoning, precise grounding, and robust interaction with dynamic real-world websites. Despite rapid progress, the strongest systems remain largely proprietary, while open agents still depend heavily on supervised post-training over large collections of curated web trajectories.
