When History Fails to Become Experience: Action Calibration in Language Agents

arXiv:2610.02769v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language agents should draw on prior attempts and environmental feedback to improve subsequent decisions within the same task. However, providing additional interaction history can sometimes reduce task success, suggesting that agents do not consistently use this information effectively. To investigate this limitation, we examine how agents use history. We find that history improves task completion overall, yet much of this benefit persists even when past actions are shuffled. Disrupting the correspondence between actions and observations cause
