arXiv:2608.30952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chemistry questions often demand exact computation and database lookups that a language model cannot supply from its parameters, so it must reach for e...
arXiv:2606. 03892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training LLMs to orchestrate multi-step tool calls is held back by three coupled obstacles: realistic stateful execution environments are costly to build, synthetic training queries are often detached from the server's actual state (so the generated tool calls fail to execute), and recall-based RL rewards incentivize verbose tool-calling patterns.
arXiv:2607. 13988v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-turn agents solve complex tasks through extended sequences of tool interactions before producing a final answer, making credit assignment a fundamental challenge during post-training.

A ReAct-style agent accumulates observations, intermediate results, and failed attempts in a single context. As this context grows, stale and off-path information consumes its limited capacity and obs...
The paper introduces ChemDiffAgent, a masked diffusion language agent designed for tool‑integrated chemical reasoning. Unlike traditional autoregressive agents, it treats reasoning as iterative denoising over interleaved reasoning and tool‑use trajectories, allowing joint decision making under full‑trajectory context. A two‑stage post‑training framework further refines tool use and reasoning, and the authors benchmark the model on six chemistry tasks, reporting a ~20% performance gain over autoregressive baselines and competitive results against larger models.
