arXiv:2610.21512v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: DeepSearch agents achieve strong performance on complex information-seeking tasks through iterative search and reasoning. However, they often issue intent-misaligned, under-constrained, or redundant search queries, resulting in poor evidence coverage and accumulating retrieval noise. To mitigate these limitations, we propose QREF, a plug-and-play Query Refiner and Evidence Filter. Specifically, the Query Refiner rewrites search queries according to the current reasoning intent while ensuring complementary coverage across each search batch. The Ev
