The paper introduces the Multi-Session Personalized Tool Calling (MPT) benchmark, containing 4,695 instances across 459 multi‑session histories that test Preference Recall, Induction, and Transfer. It proposes PRefine, a test‑time memory method that refines a user’s latent preference via a generate‑verify‑refine loop. Experiments with five LLMs show that PRefine outperforms existing memory systems and even full‑history prompting on Preference Transfer, suggesting that personalized agents should encode behavior as preferences rather than merely storing past interactions.

S3Gym is an interactive benchmark designed to evaluate large language models (LLMs) on their ability to self-improve through self-testing, self-judging, and self-improvement. It separates permissive exploration from strict held-out evaluation across seven text-based games with executable environment verifiers. Experiments show that self-improvement varies by task, with different experience incorporation pathways (direct history, summary memory, or parameter training) yielding mixed results and highlighting the need for agents to transform feedback into executable, transferable policies.

arXiv:2606. 02965v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models gain tool access and are deployed as autonomous agents capable of editing records, executing transactions, and modifying infrastructure, we still evaluate them based on the sole metric of task completion.

The paper investigates how personalized agents decide to use, ignore, update, or query retrieved user memory before acting on a task. An empirical audit protocol is developed to test structured intermediate outputs, revealing that while exposing state definitions improves accuracy, an explicit state-output field does not significantly enhance policy accuracy for large language models. The study also shows that example-level accuracy overstates consistency, with full four‑way family success being rare, and that providing benchmark‑associated state labels merely conditions predictions rather than proving internal fidelity.
