UniACE: A Unified Framework for Evaluating LLM Agentic Capabilities

UniACE is a unified framework that standardizes the evaluation of large language model (LLM) agents by representing each benchmark as an instruction–tool–environment triplet and running models through a shared, task‑agnostic harness in isolated runtimes. It preserves native success criteria, offers an offline mode for dynamic‑resource tasks, and standardizes efficiency metrics, execution records, and failure attribution. Applying UniACE to 7 benchmarks across 24 domains and 15 models revealed significant score shifts, ranking reversals, and sensitivity to evidence representation, highlighting the impact of evaluation configuration on reported agent performance.

AgentOrch: How Close Can Global Orchestration Come to Step-by-Step Interaction?

AgentOrch is a benchmark that compares global orchestration—where a complete workflow is generated upfront—with step‑by‑step interaction on 650 enterprise standard operating procedures and 3,220 runtime variants. Across all evaluated models, step‑by‑step remains more accurate, but the performance gap has narrowed by about 79% from early to recent models. The study identifies three methods—incremental workflow construction, revising workflows with execution feedback, and targeted training on complete workflows—that can further close the gap, improving global orchestration accuracy by up to 12.18 percentage points.

A Formal Hierarchical Architecture for Agentic Orchestration with Stack-Based Execution and Lazy Discovery

arXiv:2607. 11138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid expansion of capabilities in Large Language Model (LLM) agents has exposed a critical architectural bottleneck: when agents are given access to a flat, monolithic registry of tools, the model must evaluate hundreds or thousands of options simultaneously.
