arXiv:2606. 14239v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are structured procedural packages that guide frozen LLM agents in specialized workflows.
arXiv:2606. 01139v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills are procedural artifacts that enable LLM agents to execute workflows, verify constraints, and recover from failures.
arXiv:2606. 17819v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agent skills -- structured, reusable knowledge artifacts that augment LLM agent capabilities -- have been rapidly adopted in industry, yet their cross-domain impact and use across commercial and open-source models remain under-studied, and no reusable methodology exists for evaluating an individual skill.

The paper introduces SkillPivot, a framework that guides large language model agents to evolve their skills by pinpointing the exact moment a useful problem‑solving sequence turns into an erroneous suffix. SkillPivot uses execution validity, goal progress, and action diversity to detect this deviation point, then employs a stronger teacher to generate a successful alternative from the same prefix. By contrasting the failed and successful suffixes, the method produces localized, compact skill updates that preserve existing effective guidance, outperforming other skill‑evolution techniques on benchmarks such as ToolQA, LogicBench, and WildClawBench.
