SEER: Long-Context Reasoning via Selective Visual-Text Compression

Long-context reasoning remains computationally expensive for large language models due to the quadratic complexity of attention over text tokens. Visual-text compression offers a promising alternative by rendering text into images and processing them with vision-language models, often reducing token usage. However, existing approaches apply uniform compression regardless of query relevance, potentially sacrificing precision where detailed extraction is required. We present SEER, a framework that learns to select query-relevant images through visual scanning and retrieve textual content only where needed, combining the efficiency of visual compression with the precision of text-based reasoning. Through supervised fine-tuning on tool-interaction trajectories, SEER learns adaptive tool invocation for selection and retrieval. Experiments on long-context benchmarks show that SEER improves extraction precision through selective text retrieval while retaining average prompt-token savings relative to full-text baselines. On LongBench, SEER achieves 51.11% average accuracy, outperforming the visual-text baseline Glyph-9B by 2.33 points and Qwen3-8B by 3.49 points.

Fashion Outfit Generation via Unified Sequential Composition Models

The task of synthesizing stylistically coherent fashion outfits from massive item libraries, known as fashion outfit generation, remains a non-trivial challenge, primarily due to the non-monotonic and implicit nature of aesthetic compatibility, coupled with the exponentially large combinatorial search space. In this paper, we formalize this task as Constrained Ensemble Generation (CEG) and model it as a finite-horizon deterministic Markov Decision Process. To address CEG in fashion, we propose the Unified Sequential Composition Model (USCM), which jointly models set-level compatibility and latent composition intents. Guided by USCM's learned priors, a Latent Expansion Monte Carlo Tree Search (LE-MCTS) mechanism is proposed to handle item retrieval during composition, balancing local aesthetic synergy with global structural balance. Extensive experiments on the Polyvore Outfits dataset, along with zero-shot evaluations on the iFashion and PolyvoreU datasets, demonstrate that our framework achieves state-of-the-art performance across independent human preference evaluations, automated aesthetic proxies, and structural validity metrics for constrained fashion outfit generation.

SkillFab: An Agent-Native Skill Production Platform

SkillFab is an agent-native platform for turning missing capabilities into reviewed, reusable Agent Skills. At runtime, agents first search for reusable skills; when no adequate skill exists, the unmet capability becomes a demand-first issue before any repository or implementation branch needs to exist. Development then proceeds through a SkillFab-managed repository, Git-ingested commit evidence, maintainer review, and registry publication. The same lifecycle is exposed through web, REST, and MCP surfaces, so humans, scripts, and external agents operate on shared state rather than separate task logs. The current system uses scoped Git push URLs, native range commit ingestion, workflow-state reads, and workflow-event histories to make long-running agent work reviewable and recoverable. We document the platform model, architecture, implemented capabilities, and three case studies: an end-to-end OS-detect skill run, a Docker research package that converts operational practice into reusable skill knowledge, and an external optimization case showing how improved skill artifacts can enter SkillFab as reviewable, versioned submissions.

LEGO: An LLM Skill-Based Front-End Design Generation Platform

Existing LLM-based EDA agents are often isolated task-specific systems. This leads to repeated engineering effort and limited reuse of successful design and debugging strategies. We present LEGO, a unified skill-based platform for front-end design generation. It decomposes the digital front-end flow into six independent steps and represents every agent capability as a standardized composable circuit skill within a plug-and-play architecture. To build this skill library, we survey more than 100 papers, select 11 representative open-source projects, and extract 42 executable circuit skills within a six-step finite state machine formulation. Circuit Skill Builder automates skill extraction with linear scalability. Agent Skill RAG achieves submillisecond retrieval without relying on embedding models. Empirical evaluation on a hard subset of 41 VerilogEval v2 problems that gpt-5.2-codex fails to solve under extra-high reasoning effort shows that individual circuit skills constructed within LEGO raise Pass@1 from 0.000 to 0.805. This is an 80.5% gain over the baseline. Cross-project skill compositions also reach 0.805 Pass@1. They outperform hierarchy-verilog by 14.6% and VerilogCoder by 2.5%. They also match MAGE. These results show that modular skill composition supports both effective and flexible RTL design automation. The LEGO platform and all circuit skills are publicly available at GitHub: https://github.com/loujc/LEGO-An-LLM-Skill-Based-Front-End-Design-Generation-Platform

WAInjectBench: Benchmarking Prompt Injection Detections for Web Agents

Multiple prompt injection attacks have been proposed against web agents. At the same time, various methods have been developed to detect general prompt injection attacks, but none have been systematically evaluated for web agents. In this work, we bridge this gap by presenting the first comprehensive benchmark study on detecting prompt injection attacks targeting web agents. We begin by introducing a fine-grained categorization of such attacks based on the threat model. We then construct datasets containing both malicious and benign samples: malicious text segments generated by different attacks, benign text segments from four categories, malicious images produced by attacks, and benign images from two categories. Next, we systematize both text-based and image-based detection methods. Finally, we evaluate their performance across multiple scenarios. Our key findings show that while some detectors can identify attacks that rely on explicit textual instructions or visible image perturbations with moderate to high accuracy, they largely fail against attacks that omit explicit instructions or employ imperceptible perturbations.
