Les agents de codage peuvent investir des efforts considérables dans l'exploration et le test des dépôts, mais produisent toujours des patchs infructueux. Les méthodes de contrôle en ligne existantes examinent périodiquement les trajectoires ou invoquent un conseiller lorsqu'un moniteur détecte des problèmes de comportement; les examens fréquents sont coûteux, et l'absence de comportement anormal ne signifie pas qu'un agent est sur la bonne voie. Nous proposons PAUSE, un cadre pour orienter les agents de codage avec une seule intervention de planification.

Abstract

Coding agents can invest substantial effort in repository exploration and testing yet still produce unsuccessful patches. Existing online steering methods review trajectories periodically or invoke an advisor when a monitor detects behavioral problems; frequent reviews are costly, and the absence of anomalous behavior does not mean that an agent is on the right track. We propose PAUSE, a framework for steering coding agents with a single planning intervention. Agents reach their first source-code edit at a median of 60% of trajectory progress, after exploration, bug reproduction, and testing.
