A Graph-Based Reinforcement Learning Framework for Structured Drift Diagnosis and Recovery in Autonomous LLM Agents

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.14109v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous LLM agents are increasingly deployed in complex real-world workflows, yet they remain vulnerable to runtime behavioral drift, a silent deviation from the original task that can lead to irreversible side effects on external systems. Existing approaches address drift at the prompt level but lack structured mechanisms for step-level detection, risk assessment, and recovery decision. Because the main task-executing agent is often a large and
