AI 速览：DolphinRouting 按请求特征聚类，并用离线策略搜索为每个簇学习一个二元路由决策，从而在 PD 解耦集群中选择本地或远程 prefill。
Prefill-decode (PD) disaggregation isolates the two phases of large language model serving, but request-level path selection must account for prefill work, cache reuse, and decode demand. We present DolphinRouting, which learns this choice from end-to-end SLO feedback under a given P/D resource allocation. Requests are clustered by raw prompt length, cache-adjusted input lengths on both worker pools, and output-length information. Offline policy search learns one binary action per cluster. Online feature extraction, cluster assignment, and table lookup select local or remote prefill. We evaluate DolphinRouting on a real PD-disaggregated cluster using three public benchmarks, a mixed workload, and real data. Across the mixed workload and real data, DolphinRouting with $k$-means reduces P90 TTFT by 5.7--7.9\% and P90 TPOT by 2.6--10.1\% relative to Dynamo.

Agent skills, structured procedural knowledge packages injected at inference time, are increasingly used to augment LLM agents on software engineering tasks. However, their real utility in end-to-end development settings remains unclear, and no standard procedure tests an individual skill before installation. We present swe-skills-bench, a skill-centric, requirement-driven benchmark that measures how much individual agent skills improve performance on real-world software engineering (SWE) tasks. We start from 98 public SWE skills, each paired with a real GitHub repository pinned at a fixed commit. For each skill, we derive repository-specific requirements, create executable verifiers, and build a reproducible environment. Under each of four agent-model configurations, we run every task once without the skill and once with it, yielding 3,920 paired evaluations. For each requirement, we compute a paired delta, i.e., the change in outcome when the skill is added. We then aggregate these deltas across a skill's ten requirements into a per-skill utility profile, and use a statistical test to classify each skill as Golden (significantly helpful), Ineffective (no significant effect), or Harmful (significantly detrimental). Our results show that skills provide limited benefits: 92 of 98 skills have no statistically significant effect, and adding skills raises the average pass ratio only from 76.6% to 76.9%. The few helpful skills supply procedures that the agent would otherwise omit (gains of up to $+17.7$ points). In contrast, harmful skills anchor the agent on their own templates and override the task's explicit instructions (losses of up to -17.0 points).

Missing project context can prevent build-dependent analyzers from constructing program relations required for vulnerability detection, while neural predictions alone do not establish auditable derivations. We present SymLift, a compile-free framework centered on Vulnerability-Oriented Neural Semantic Lifting for context-incomplete code fragments. A fine-tuned large language model reconstructs vulnerability-relevant control-flow, data-flow, memory, and resource relations in a constrained LLVM-like intermediate representation (IR), without reconstructing the full project context or directly predicting vulnerability labels. A deterministic parser validates the IR and maps its supported operations and relations into normalized evidence facts. Explicit Datalog rules derive findings with supporting facts and derivation traces, ensuring deterministic reasoning for fixed facts and rules. We evaluate SymLift on FormAI, Juliet, and MegaVul. Reducing complete Juliet programs to function-level fragments lowers Clang compilation success from 100% to 12.00%, whereas SymLift's analysis completion rate decreases by only 1.17 percentage points. After task-specific fine-tuning, the lifter achieves a control-flow intersection over union (IoU) of 96.85% on FormAI. SymLift-Qwen-7B achieves a Target-F1 of 94.41% on FormAI and, across six vulnerability families on MegaVul, a micro-averaged precision of 98.24% and a micro-averaged Target-F1 of 91.66%. These results support accurate and auditable detection in the evaluated context-incomplete settings, even with partial program relations.
