Reasoning-Search-Augmented LLMs: An Operational Taxonomy, Benchmark Analysis and Controlled Evidence Synthesis
The paper reviews and categorizes large language models that combine step‑by‑step reasoning with interactive search, treating retrieval as an action within an iterative agentic loop. It analyzes these systems along four architectural axes—retrieval coupling, controller design, knowledge source, and grounding strictness—while also considering the learning signal as a cross‑cutting factor. The authors conduct controlled ablations and benchmark analyses to clarify how design choices affect search, stopping, and grounding behavior, aiming to provide a unified perspective for future research.

UniToolCall: Unifying Tool-Use Representation, Data, and Evaluation for LLM Agents
UniToolCall introduces a unified framework for tool-use in large language model agents, standardizing toolset construction, dataset generation, and evaluation. The framework aggregates over 22,000 tools and creates a hybrid training corpus of more than 390,000 instances by combining ten public datasets with synthetically generated, structurally controlled trajectories. It models diverse interaction patterns—single‑hop vs. multi‑hop, single‑turn vs. multi‑turn, serial vs. parallel execution—and adds an Anchor Linkage mechanism to enforce cross‑turn dependencies, while converting seven public benchmarks into a common Query–Action–Observation–Answer format for fine‑grained evaluation.
