Skills, reusable procedural guidance added at inference, can substantially improve LLM downstream performance (Li et al., 2026). Prior work retrieves skills from a bank by semantic relevance, then uses them as inference-time patches or for model distillation. The individual utility of each skill, however, is largely ne …

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) struggle with spatial, embodied, physical, and temporal reasoning. We hypothesize that these failures reflect a shared deficit in visual transition reasoning, and test whether this capability can serve as a shared training primitive, one that different models can learn from diff …

An agent that interacts with users over long periods must recall facts, preferences, events, and changes from a continuously growing interaction history. Existing memory systems often compress interactions into generic summaries or retrieve anonymous text chunks, making it difficult for an agent to identify the correct …
