New LoRA Skills Should Read but Never Write

The paper introduces READ, a method for composing low‑rank adapters (LoRA) in large language models. By rewriting each adapter into a balanced canonical form and enforcing a one‑directional coupling, READ allows new skills to read but never write into the output subspaces of existing skills, eliminating interference. Experiments on four benchmark suites and two model families show that READ consistently outperforms existing baselines, improving SuperGLUE scores by over twenty points and domain suite scores by more than seven points.
