UrbanAgent: A Tool-Augmented Agent for Cross-System Urban Tasks
Modern cities rely on an increasing number of digital services to operate, but residents' daily needs are still difficult to meet. Services are fragmented and have little interoperability, placing a heavy operational burden on users. Existing digital platforms, urban foundation models, and intelligent assistants each address only isolated aspects of an urban task. But they struggle to reliably convert complex natural-language requests into executable cross-system workflows. We propose Urban-Agent, a tool-augmented agent framework for cross-system urban tasks. It couples the cognitive and reasoning capabilities of a large language model with a tool-set supporting code execution, API calls, and Model Context Protocol. Through one adaptive closed loop, it clarifies missing information before acting, grounds tool use in live observations, and aligns the final response with observed evidence and task constraints. To address the evaluation gap, we introduce Urban-Eval, a benchmark specifically designed for cross-system urban request. Unlike prior benchmarks that assess either general tool use or urban knowledge and reasoning, Urban-Eval evaluates both task results and execution quality, including required tool coverage, dependency validity, and evidence traceability. Experimental results indicate that Urban-Agent reaches a 71% task success rate, 10 points above the strongest baseline. This lead holds across GPT-5-mini, Gemini-2.5-flash, DeepSeek-V4-flash, and Qwen3-235B-A22B.
PeroMAS: A Multi-agent System of Perovskite Material Discovery
As a pioneer of the third-generation photovoltaic revolution, Perovskite Solar Cells (PSCs) are renowned for their superior optoelectronic performance and cost potential. The development process of PSCs is precise and complex, involving a series of closed-loop workflows such as literature retrieval, data integration, experimental design, and synthesis. However, existing AI perovskite approaches focus predominantly on discrete models, including material design, process optimization,and property prediction. These models fail to propagate physical constraints across the workflow, hindering end-to-end optimization. In this paper, we propose a multi-agent system for perovskite material discovery, named PeroMAS. We first encapsulated a series of perovskite-specific tools into Model Context Protocols (MCPs). By planning and invoking these tools, PeroMAS can design perovskite materials under multi-objective constraints, covering the entire process from literature retrieval and data extraction to property prediction and mechanism analysis. Furthermore, we construct an evaluation benchmark by perovskite human experts to assess this multi-agent system. Results demonstrate that, compared to single Large Language Model (LLM) or traditional search strategies, our system significantly enhances discovery efficiency. It successfully identified candidate materials satisfying multi-objective constraints. Notably, we verify PeroMAS's effectiveness in the physical world through real synthesis experiments.
