arXiv:2608. 07538v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents move from decision support to autonomous procurement, firms need to know whether delegated negotiators create value, divide it predictably, and avoid money-losing contracts.

arXiv:2608. 05144v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Long-horizon reasoning requires an agentic runtime that can persist when evidence supports its current approach and pivot when measurements reveal failure, hidden constraints, or a misspecified objective.

arXiv:2608. 09184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents provide a promising interface for command-line-based network operations, but a plausible command may still fail or introduce operational risk after execution.
