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. 20064v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly deployed as agents: they plan, call tools, read untrusted data, and act on the results.

Sapien is a policy engine that enforces stateful contextual policies for autonomous AI agents, specifying allowed tool‑call sequences with an extended regular expression that includes stateful predicates, deferred policy generation, and scoped semantic checks. The system maintains performance close to an unconstrained agent while significantly reducing malicious actions, ruling out 93‑95% of attacks on AgentDojo and 62‑85% on Toolathlon, outperforming traditional tool allowlists on long‑horizon tasks.
