When Simulation Lies: A Sim-to-Real Benchmark and Domain-Randomized RL Recipe for Tool-Use Agents

The paper introduces RobustBench‑TC, a benchmark that tests tool‑use language agents under 22 real‑world perturbations affecting observations, actions, rewards, and transitions. Experiments on 21 models show that observation noise has minimal impact, while reward‑relevant and transition noise drastically reduce accuracy, and model size alone does not mitigate these gaps. The authors propose ToolRL‑DR, a domain‑randomized reinforcement‑learning recipe that improves robustness, retaining most clean accuracy and narrowing performance gaps even on unseen transition perturbations.

Jev-LiteMAS: Separating Decisions from Generation in Multi-Agent Workflows

Jev-LiteMAS is a multi‑agent framework that separates decision‑making from generative execution in large‑language‑model workflows. By using a lightweight decision model (Jev) to dynamically select experts and screen artifacts, it closes the planning and review gaps left by pure generative planners and reviewers. Experiments on four benchmarks show that Jev‑LiteMAS cuts generative‑LLM token usage by 12.7–54.6% while keeping accuracy within 1.34 percentage points and reducing latency in most settings.
