What Changed

Evaluation remains the strongest high-recall signal: 137 of 157 selected candidates received the broad agent-evaluation tag, and 119 received tool-use. These tags overlap and are not quality judgments.

The useful new evaluation clusters are:

Protocol validity and dynamic environments: benchmarks increasingly vary tools, MCP servers, interaction protocols and real deployment conditions.
Trajectory diagnosis: new work targets failure observability, attribution, runtime intervention and recovery rather than only final scores.
Independent verification: several candidates emphasize deterministic gates, effect-scored traces, provenance and reward-hacking-resistant validators.
Regression and cost accounting: average improvement is insufficient when a component fixes some tasks while breaking previously successful ones.
Interactive coding work: coding-agent evaluation continues moving toward project building, production trajectories, payment/backend integration and repository-level optimization.

Priority Candidates

All remain queued; the descriptions above are based on title/abstract triage.

Caveats

The official export API was unavailable during this run, so the official arXiv search interface was used through the new collector backend.
Search queries are overlapping and broad.
Automated relevance scoring can admit domain-specific uses of Agents with limited architectural value.
No new paper from this increment has been promoted to skimmed or evidence-backed status.
