Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly capable of acting in complex tool-use environments, yet they often fail to recognize when tasks are infeasible and no valid solution exists. Recent work has formalized this reliability gap as the problem of agentic abstention, and existing approaches typically optimize …

While multi-agent and model collaboration algorithms gain traction to combine the strengths of diverse Large Language Models (LLMs), existing systems remain bottlenecked on pre-defined and hand-crafted model pools. In this work, we investigate the problem of model selection in multi-LLM systems. We propose and systemat …

Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly interleave natural language reasoning with external tools such as web search and code execution. These tool-use policies are often optimized via reinforcement learning (RL), which can amplify spurious correlations in the training data. In this work, we study when and why R …
