arXiv:2606. 06787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) show promise as tool-using agents but remain limited in long-horizon tasks that require remembering, organizing, and reusing knowledge.
The paper introduces OPSD, a method that uses on‑policy self‑distillation to train a context‑free student model from a teacher conditioned on user memory, combined with a verify‑then‑regenerate router that directs queries to either weight or text memory. OPSD enables weight memory to compete with or surpass traditional text‑based memory systems on the HaluMem benchmark, reducing token usage per query. The study also explores how different training recipes influence weight memory performance and offers guidance for integrating it with retrieval in persistent, multi‑session agent deployments.
arXiv:2507. 05257v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent benchmarks for Large Language Model (LLM) agents primarily focus on evaluating reasoning, planning, and execution capabilities, while another critical component-memory, encompassing how agents memorize, update, and retrieve long-term information-is under-evaluated due to the lack of benchmarks.
M-Plan is a closed‑loop multi‑agent system that combines long‑term and short‑term memory to improve large language model agents on long‑horizon, multi‑turn tasks. It uses task‑specific milestones and local hints to generate global‑local guidance, forming short‑term memory during execution, and then optimizes and stores relevant information in long‑term memory for future use. Experiments on ALFWorld, Webshop, and PDDL show that M‑Plan outperforms baseline methods in both accuracy and efficiency.

SkillRL is a framework that enhances large language model agents by automatically discovering and evolving skills from raw experience. It builds a hierarchical skill library called SkillBank, uses an adaptive retrieval strategy for heuristics, and allows the skill library to co‑evolve with the agent’s policy during reinforcement learning. These techniques reduce token usage and improve reasoning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on ALFWorld, WebShop, and seven search‑augmented tasks, outperforming baselines by 15.3% and remaining robust as task complexity grows.
