## One-line Takeaway

Auto-collected from arXiv because it matched the Agent collection queries. Needs human skim.

## Why Collected

- matched queries: function-calling
- inferred topics: agent-evaluation, reasoning, workflow-agent
- arXiv categories: cs.AR, cs.LG, cs.SE
- collection score: 17

## Review Checklist

- Does this paper directly inform Agent architecture, evaluation, memory, tools, safety, coding agents, GUI/browser agents, or multi-agent workflows?
- Does it include a benchmark, dataset, code, or reproducible experimental setup?
- Should it be promoted from `queued` to `skimmed` or `summarized`?
