Test-Time Agent Evolution for Long-Horizon Legal Reasoning
Quick summary
arXiv:2610.08138v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Legal intelligence aims to support reliable decision-making across long-horizon legal processes involving evolving case states and multiple roles. However, real-world legal deployment exhibits substantial case heterogeneity in facts, evidence, and procedural contexts, exposing the limitations of static agent strategies. Moreover, legal reasoning is inherently interdependent across roles and procedural stages, making global reliability fundamentally different from isolated role competence. To address these challenges, we study training-free test-t

Why it matters
This model development creates a new option for users and a new testing obligation for developers. A fixed evaluation set comparing quality, cost and failure behavior is more useful than launch claims.
