SkillTrace: Traversing a Query-Skill Graph for Composable LLM Agents
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.02356v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language model agents increasingly solve complex tasks by composing reusable skills from a library. To address this, the key challenge is not merely to retrieve individually relevant skills, but to identify a complete and executable skill composition. In this paper, we argue that this problem can be solved in a graph with three levels: compositional relations among skill queries, similarity between queries and candidates in the skill library, and the dependencies among the selected candidates. We introduce SkillTrace, which organizes th

Why it matters
The value of this work lies as much in how it was tested as in the claim itself. Sample design, baselines, uncertainty and replication help separate a laboratory result from real-world impact.
