The paper introduces RUPA, a trajectory‑level uncertainty quantification framework for large language model agents. RUPA models an agent’s execution as a directed graph of reasoning states, tool interactions, and environment feedback, then propagates uncertainty across this graph to capture long‑range dependencies. Experiments on benchmarks such as τ‑2, Terminal‑Bench‑2, and GAIA show that RUPA outperforms existing methods, enabling earlier failure detection and more reliable agent execution.

GRIP (Grounded Reasoning via Information-Restricted Premises) addresses the query dominance problem in retrieval-augmented generation by enforcing a capacity asymmetry: the decoder retains full access to the query while retrieved evidence is funneled through a severe stochastic bottleneck. This design forces the evidence channel to encode only residual information not present in the query. On five reasoning benchmarks, GRIP surpasses strong iterative baselines, reduces query–latent mutual information by about 30×, cuts hallucination by 73%, and its bottleneck outputs occupy subspaces less aligned with the query than baseline representations.
