Multimodal models increasingly reach for tools when solving visual tasks (crop, zoom, rotate, brighten), a paradigm known as thinking-with-images. The central challenge is one of perception: tools mostly serve to expose visual evidence, reasoning over that evidence stays in language, and most targets are ones a human c...
It is found that compression degrades reliability before solvability and proposed PAIR (Prompt Adaptation using Interventional Rollouts) for adapting structured compression prompts achieves the strongest cross-run reliability among compressed methods in every main benchmark-scope combination.

TRACE is introduced, a verifier-guided framework that evaluates individual compaction events through paired closed-loop continuations from the same environment state and uses summary preferences to optimize a natural-language compression prompt while keeping all models frozen.
MV-WSA (Marginal-Value Working-Set Allocation), which splits memory by marginal latency benefit per byte while enforcing a KV-admission floor, is implemented in WiSP (Working-Set Paging), a routing-aware expert pager that plugs into an unmodified serving engine and preserves byte-identical outputs.
