Learning When to Withdraw: Curriculum Coverage and Rule-Specific Failures in Fine-Tuned Language Agents
arXiv:2610.21045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tool-using language agents must revise prepared actions when evidence changes or authority is revoked. Selective withdrawal means suspending affected actions, preserving supported work, and resuming only after sufficient repair. We study supervised fine-tuning in NAQD-Env, a synthetic environment with explicit dependencies and a deterministic reference policy. Four LoRA checkpoints of Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct compare an original curriculum with an enri…
