    LeanGuard blocks forbidden tool calls before they run: direct prompt-injection success on DTap falls from 57.9% to 5.9%

    Tool-using language-model agents often execute actions their domain policies forbid, and LeanGuard places policies written in Lean 4 between the model and its tools so that only admitted calls execute. On τ 2-bench, unguarded runs of five Qwen models executed at least 33 calls the Lean policy forbids, while LeanGuard executed none; on DTap, direct prompt-injection success fell from 57.9% to 5.9% and indirect success from 22.3% to 3.8%. Denials with feedback did not significantly change task success, and the read-only deployment blocks many benign writes.

  2. No weight updates: a customer-service agent tops the τ²-bench retail board with rules it learned from its own runs

    IBM Research's ALTK-Evolve appends behavioral guidelines distilled from an agent's own trial-and-error trajectories to its system prompt, leaving model weights untouched. On the τ²-bench retail domain, an agent using the older non-reasoning model gpt-4.1 raises Pass4 from 57.5% to 67.5%, above every retail entry in the October 12, 2026 leaderboard snapshot and above RAFT-30B-A3B's 61.4% from fine-tuning on synthetic data. The same model extracts and applies the guidelines, with no human annotation.
