Fine-grained action annotations can support skill reuse and compositional generalization in robot policies. However, robot datasets typically provide task-level instructions without subtask annotations. Although some include subtask labels, inconsistent formats and conventions hinder cross-source joint training. We propose RoboAtom-Data, which adds unified, time-aligned atomic-action annotations to existing data from multiple sources, covering 1.45 million trajectories, 6.88 million skill-labeled segments, and 16,882.1 hours. Our pipeline combines a unified protocol, large-scale manual annotation, propagation across repeated executions with the same ordered skill sequence, and multi-stage quality control. We evaluate the dataset through automatic atomic-action annotation and robot control. We construct RoboAtom-Bench to standardize evaluation of skill recognition and temporal boundary localization. Trained on the annotated data, RoboAtom-Anno achieves better automatic annotation performance than all evaluated open- and closed-source models on both RoboAtom-Bench and the external WGO-Bench. For robot control, atomic-action supervision paired with hierarchical execution improves task success over task-level baselines on LIBERO-Long, LIBERO-Plus, and RoboTwin. We will release the data, benchmark, model, and construction pipeline to support further research on skill-level robot learning.

Large language model (LLM) services process massive volumes of user requests, resulting in substantial inference costs. To reduce both cost and latency, providers have introduced prompt caching. However, correctly integrating prompt caching is non-trivial due to heterogeneous provider-specific APIs and continuously evolving caching semantics. To understand prompt-caching mis-integration in downstream applications, we conduct the first empirical study of 120 prompt-caching-related pull requests from 10 popular open-source agent systems. Our findings show that prompt-caching mis-integrations arise in both request-side misconfiguration and read-side usage miscount. More importantly, most mis-integrations fail silently without causing observable runtime failures. Motivated by these findings, we design CACHELINT, which models a prompt-caching mis-integration as an invocation site together with the preconditions required for correct cache integration. CACHELINT locates caching invocation sites with CodeQL and discharges each precondition either against a dated provider capability oracle or with an LLM guard check. CACHELINT achieves 0.71 precision and 0.78 recall in identifying the 120 labeled mis-integrations across the 10 studied agent systems. Our evaluation further demonstrates the effectiveness of CACHELINT in real-world settings, identifying 32 mis-integrations across 571 agent projects with 0.86 precision. These findings have received 21 developer confirmations and led to 18 upstream fixes, including one in Anthropic's official SDK.
Evaluating the safety robustness of LLMs is critical for their deployment. However, mainstream Red Teaming methods rely on online generation and black-box output analysis. These approaches are not only costly but also suffer from feedback latency, making them unsuitable for agile diagnostics after training a new model.To address this, we propose N-GLARE (A Non-Generative, Latent Representation-Efficient LLM Safety Evaluator). N-GLARE operates entirely on the model’s latent representations, bypassing the need for full text generation. It characterizes hidden layer dynamics by analyzing the APT (Angular-Probabilistic Trajectory) of latent representations and introducing the JSS (Jensen-Shannon Separability) metric.Experiments on over 40 models and 20 red teaming strategies demonstrate that the JSS metric exhibits high consistency with Red Teaming safety rankings at less than 1% token and runtime cost.

Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve strong program repair performance but often suffer from over-editing, where excessive modifications overwrite correct code and hinder bug localization. We systematically quantify its impact and introduce precise repair task, which maximizes reuse of correct code while fixing only buggy parts. Building on this insight, we propose PRepair, a framework that mitigates over-editing and improves repair accuracy. PRepair has two components: Self-Breaking, which generates diverse buggy programs via controlled bug injection and min–max sampling, and Self-Repairing, which trains models with Edit-Aware Group Relative Policy Optimization (EA-GRPO) using an edit-aware reward to encourage minimal yet correct edits. Experiments show that PRepair improves repair precision by up to 31.4% under \mathrm{fix}_1@1, a metric that jointly considers repair correctness and extent, and significantly increases decoding throughput when combined with speculative editing, demonstrating its potential for precise and practical code repair.

While Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged with remarkable capabilities in complex tasks through Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, practical resource constraints have sparked interest in transferring these abilities to smaller models. However, achieving both domain performance and cross-domain generalization remains challenging. Existing approaches typically restrict students to following a single golden rationale and treat different reasoning paths independently. Due to distinct inductive biases and intrinsic preferences, alongside the student’s evolving capacity and reasoning preferences during training, a teacher’s “optimal” rationale could act as out-of-distribution noise. This misalignment leads to a degeneration of the student’s latent reasoning distribution, causing suboptimal performance. To bridge this gap, we propose MIND, a capability-adaptive framework that transitions distillation from passive mimicry to active cognitive construction. We synthesize diverse teacher perspectives through a novel “Teaching Assistant” network. By employing a novel Feedback-Driven Inertia Calibration mechanism, this network utilizes inertia-filtered training loss to align supervision with the student’s current adaptability, effectively enhancing performance while mitigating catastrophic forgetting. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MIND achieves state-of-the-art performance on both in-distribution and out-of-distribution benchmarks, and our sophisticated latent space analysis further confirms the mechanism of reasoning ability internalization.
