Single-Agent LLMs Outperform Multi-Agent Systems on Multi-Hop Reasoning Under Equal Thinking Token Budgets
arXiv:2604.02460v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work reports strong performance from multi-agent LLM systems (MAS), but these gains are often confounded by increased test-time computation. When computation is normalized, single-agent systems (SAS) can match or outperform MAS, yet the theoretical basis and evaluation methodology behind this comparison remain unclear. We present an information-theoretic argument, grounded in the Data Processing Inequality, suggesting that under a fixed reasoning-token budget and with perfect context utilization, single-agent systems are more information-efficient. This perspective further predicts that multi-agent systems become competitive when a single agent's effective context utilization is degraded, or when more compute is expended. We test the
Letting AI Control RAG Search Improved Accuracy by 79%
Letting AI Control RAG Search Improved Accuracy by 79% Most RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) search pipelines are built like this: Query → vector search → Top-K retrieval → dump everything into LLM This fixed pipeline is the root cause limiting RAG accuracy. A February 2026 ArXiv paper (arXiv:2602.03442) proposed A-RAG (Agentic RAG), replacing the fixed search pipeline with an AI agent. Result: multi-hop QA accuracy improved by 79% (50.2% → 89.7%). And retrieved tokens dropped by half. Higher accuracy with less retrieval. Here's how this counter-intuitive result works. Three Limits of Fixed-Pipeline RAG Limit 1: Weak on Multi-Hop Questions Question: "Where did the person who invented X attend university?" Required searches: Round 1: "Who invented X" → identify the person Round 2: "That
Competency Questions as Executable Plans: a Controlled RAG Architecture for Cultural Heritage Storytelling
arXiv:2604.02545v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The preservation of intangible cultural heritage is a critical challenge as collective memory fades over time. While Large Language Models (LLMs) offer a promising avenue for generating engaging narratives, their propensity for factual inaccuracies or "hallucinations" makes them unreliable for heritage applications where veracity is a central requirement. To address this, we propose a novel neuro-symbolic architecture grounded in Knowledge Graphs (KGs) that establishes a transparent "plan-retrieve-generate" workflow for story generation. A key novelty of our approach is the repurposing of competency questions (CQs) - traditionally design-time validation artifacts - into run-time executable narrative plans. This approach bridges the gap betwee

Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning-based Joint Design of Low-Carbon P2P Market and Bidding Strategy in Microgrids
arXiv:2604.02728v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The challenges of the uncertainties in renewable energy generation and the instability of the real-time market limit the effective utilization of clean energy in microgrid communities. Existing peer-to-peer (P2P) and microgrid coordination approaches typically rely on certain centralized optimization or restrictive coordination rules which are difficult to be implemented in real-life applications. To address the challenge, we propose an intraday P2P trading framework that allows self-interested microgrids to pursue their economic benefits, while allowing the market operator to maximize the social welfare, namely the low carbon emission objective, of the entire community. Specifically, the decision-making processes of the microgrids are formul
How to Sync Design Tokens Between React and Flutter (Without Losing Your Mind)
Style Dictionary's Flutter support has been broken for years. I built tokensync — a CLI that generates CSS and Flutter ThemeData from one tokens.json file, then verifies they match numerically. Your designer just updated the brand color. You open your CSS file. Update --color-brand-500 . Then you open your Flutter file. Update AppTheme._lightColors.primary . Then you grep for anywhere else it might appear. Then you do the same for dark mode. Then you hope you got them all. Three weeks later a designer screenshots both apps side by side. The web button is #5C6BC0 . The mobile button is #5B6BC0 . Off by one digit. Nobody noticed. It shipped. If you maintain both a React web app and a Flutter mobile app, this is a design token sync problem — and it costs teams 6–20 hours every time tokens cha
Python Tracebacks in Claude Code? Hide the Framework Frames
A Django traceback for a simple TemplateDoesNotExist error is 40+ lines. 35 of those lines are Django internals — django/template/loader.py , django/core/handlers/base.py , django/middleware/common.py . Your AI doesn't need to read Django's source to fix your missing template path. But it does, every time. Before: Django Traceback Traceback ( most recent call last ): File " /usr/lib/python3/django/core/handlers/exception.py " , line 47 , in inner response = get_response ( request ) File " /usr/lib/python3/django/core/handlers/base.py " , line 181 , in _get_response response = wrapped_callback ( request , * callback_args , ** callback_kwargs ) File " /usr/lib/python3/django/core/handlers/base.py " , line 217 , in _get_response response = self . process_exception_by_middleware ( e , request
