SCLATE: a Substrate for Continual-Learning Agent Training and Evaluation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

SCLATE is a new execution substrate that allows continual‑learning benchmarks and agents to share a single event scheduler via adapters, enabling tasks, session events, and memory consolidation to run on a compressed, real‑time timeline. It also functions as a rollout engine that records every model call’s tokens and log probabilities without modifying the agent’s harness or memory. Using SCLATE, the authors ported seven benchmarks, compared ten harness‑memory configurations across ten models, and demonstrated that post‑training Qwen3.5‑4B can effectively leverage both harness and memory, improving performance on multiple metrics.

What to Keep, What to Forget: A Rate--Distortion View of Memory Compaction in LLMs and Agents

arXiv:2607. 08032v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models, and the agents built on them, spend an ever-growing share of their compute and memory on remembering: caching attention keys and values, carrying long prompts, maintaining recurrent state, and storing what happened in previous turns and sessions.

Just-in-Time Memory: Learning to Curate Task-Adaptive Memory for LLM Agents

The paper introduces Just-in-Time Memory (JitMem), a system that defers memory curation until a task is read, allowing a curator to synthesize task‑specific memory payloads based on the current query. Unlike traditional write‑time curation, JitMem retains raw trajectories and trains the curator using immediate task success, avoiding long‑horizon credit‑assignment issues. Experiments on ALFWorld, WebShop, and τ²‑bench show JitMem consistently outperforms both no‑memory agents and existing write‑time memory methods, with improvements of up to 16.3 absolute success‑rate points. whyItMatters":"By curating memory at read time, JitMem enables more effective, task‑adaptive recall that directly improves agent performance across diverse benchmarks."

TideRL: Boosting Agentic RL Goodput with Readiness-Aware Scheduling

arXiv:2608. 10402v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) for large language models is moving toward multi-turn agentic workloads, where rollout tasks repeatedly pause for external environments, resume with growing contexts, and finish at highly variable times.
