TabClaw: An Interactive and Self-Evolving Agent for Spreadsheet Manipulation and Table Reasoning

Spreadsheets and tables are widely used representations for structured data analysis, but effective analysis still requires substantial manual effort and domain expertise. Recent large language model (LLM) agents can automate parts of this process, but they often provide limited transparency into intermediate decisions, rely on implicit assumptions, struggle with multi-table comparison, and repeat similar workflows without adapting to a user's preferences.

SpreadsheetArena: Decomposing Preference in LLM Generation of Spreadsheet Workbooks

arXiv:2603. 10002v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We consider the task of end-to-end spreadsheet generation, where language models produce spreadsheet artifacts to satisfy users' explicit and implicit constraints, specified in natural language.

Exploring Plan Space through Conversation: An Agentic Framework for LLM-Mediated Explanations in Planning

arXiv:2603. 02070v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: When automating plan generation for a real-world sequential decision problem, the goal is often not to replace the human planner, but to facilitate an iterative reasoning and elicitation process, where the human's role is to guide the AI planner according to their preferences and expertise.
