SkillPager: Query-Adaptive Intra-Skill Navigation via Semantic Node Retrieval 文章

arXiv:2606.00822v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Skill-based LLM agents increasingly rely on long procedural documents, but full-document prompting wastes tokens and dilutes information critical to execution. We study this setting as intra-skill retrieval, where the goal is to select a minimal, execution-sufficient context from a known skill document given a query. We present SkillPager, a two-stage framework that parses each Markdown skill into typed semantic nodes offline and leverages Maximal Marginal Relevance (MMR) to perform global, query-conditioned node selection online. On a benchmark of 395 skills and 1,975 queries, SkillPager achieves 78.89% LLM-judged context sufficiency, compared to 82.23% for the exhaustive full-document baseline, while reducing prompt tokens by 47.04%. A granularity ablation shows that applying the same retrieval algorithm to raw fixed-length chunks reaches a comparable 81.77% sufficiency but increases token cost by 28.
