CORE: Contrastive Reflection for Sample-Efficient Reasoning Improvement
CORE (Contrastive Reflection) is a non-parametric learning algorithm that improves LLM reasoning by comparing successful and unsuccessful reasoning traces to generate compact natural-language 'insights' about reasoning strategies. Across four reasoning tasks, CORE outperforms both parametric baselines (GRPO/RLVR) and non-parametric baselines (GEPA, episodic RAG, MemRL) under fixed rollout budgets, achieving comparable or better gains with as few as five training samples. The method is also more context-efficient than prompt-optimization approaches, storing learned knowledge as interpretable natural-language descriptions rather than raw traces or weight updates. The results suggest contrastive distillation of reasoning traces may be a more efficient route to self-improvement than traditional fine-tuning.
SkillOpt: Systematic Text-Space Optimizer for Self-Evolving Agent Skills
SkillOpt introduces a principled optimization framework for agent skills, treating the skill document as an external trainable state analogous to model weights. A separate optimizer model converts scored rollouts into bounded edits (add/delete/replace) on a skill document, accepting only edits that improve held-out validation scores. Evaluated across six benchmarks, seven target models, and three execution harnesses (direct chat, Codex, Claude Code), SkillOpt achieves best or tied performance on all 52 evaluated cells, lifting GPT-5.5 no-skill accuracy by up to +24.8 points inside the Codex agentic loop. Optimized skill artifacts also transfer across model scales and execution environments without further optimization.
EEVEE: Multi-dataset test-time prompt learning framework for self-improving LLM agents
EEVEE is a new framework enabling LLM agents to perform test-time prompt learning across heterogeneous multi-dataset task streams, addressing a gap where prior methods only handled single-dataset settings. The system uses a router to partition inputs into task clusters and assigns them to suitable prompt configurations, optimized via a router-prompt co-evolution strategy. Experiments show improvements of 10.38 and 24.32 average points over Qwen3-4B-Instruct and DeepSeek-V3.2 respectively, outperforming prior SOTA methods GEPA and ACE by up to 48.2%.
