Consilience is an inference‑time orchestration framework that steers and certifies communication among multi‑agent large language models in hidden‑profile settings. It summarizes each discussion turn with a compact state of uncertainty, disagreement, evidence gain, redundancy, and premature consensus, then selects a communication intervention (challenge, clarify, seek evidence, or route) and speaker. A round‑wise conformal calibration procedure guarantees that the controller’s proposed action has bounded one‑step regret with high probability, and an acceptance mechanism enforces this guarantee for the executed action. Experiments on HiddenBench‑style tasks show that Consilience improves decision accuracy and communication efficiency over fixed and unstructured protocols, sometimes outperforming a full‑information baseline.

Multi-agent debate (MAD) has emerged as a promising paradigm for improving the reasoning accuracy of large language models (LLMs) through iterative peer interaction. Communication topology plays a cen...
The paper investigates whether complex communication topologies are necessary for effective multi‑agent debate (MAD) among large language models. It demonstrates that a simple random-without-replacement routing policy—where each agent debates with two newly sampled peers each round—consistently improves the accuracy‑cost trade‑off in sparse MAD setups. Additionally, the study shows that lightweight deliberation stopping can further reduce inference costs without sacrificing accuracy.
