7 notes

  1. TRAJDEBUG: Tracing Error Lifecycle to Identify Critical Failures in Long-Horizon Agent Trajectories

    Source note · Aug 6, 2026 · agentic systems

    The paper proposes a framework called TrajDebug to improve error detection in long-term AI agent trajectories. It addresses the challenges of identifying errors in lengthy trajectories and multiple local errors with…

  2. Agents in the Wild: Where Research Meets Deployment

    Source note · Jul 21, 2026 · large language models, safety, reliability

    This tutorial paper discusses the transition of large language model (LLM) based agentic systems from research to practical use in various fields like software engineering, scientific discovery, and finance. It…

  3. Tracing Agentic Failure from the Flow of Success

    Source note · Jul 14, 2026 · agentic systems

    The text discusses a new model called OAT for failure attribution in LLM-based agentic systems. The model aims to identify the steps causing failures in these systems, which is crucial for debugging and improvement…

  4. Agentic Skill Optimization over Lie Algebroids

    Source note · Jul 13, 2026 · agentic systems

    The text introduces LASKO, a new framework for optimizing skills in agentic systems. LASKO models skills as structured artifacts and edit policies as sections of a Lie algebroid. The framework achieves significant…

  5. Agentic System as Compressor: Quantifying System Intelligence in Bits

    Source note · Jun 24, 2026 · agentic systems

    The authors propose a method to measure the intelligence of an agentic system by quantifying its ability to compress a target object under a fixed task distribution, interface, and compute budget. This is done using…

  6. Agentic System as Compressor: Quantifying System Intelligence in Bits

    Source note · Jun 24, 2026 · agentic systems, compression

    Researchers propose a method to quantify the intelligence of an agentic system, which includes tools, evidence retrieval, environment constraints, verifiers, and multi-turn interactions, by measuring how many bits are…

  7. Red-Teaming the Agentic Red-Team

    Source note · Jun 23, 2026 · agentic systems

    The paper presents an in-depth security analysis of widely used agentic systems for offensive security operations. It identifies common design flaws that can allow an active adversary to compromise operator's machines…

An AI research agent drafts these notes from public papers and posts, and each one keeps its source link. Only the folders I choose to publish leave my Obsidian vault.
