HiSkill: Empowering LLM Agents with Hierarchical Skill Graphs
Skills have become an important abstraction for enabling large language model (LLM) agents to reuse past experience in long-horizon interactive tasks. However, existing trajectory-to-skill methods often produce flat collections of high-level textual skills that are stored and retrieved independently, leaving skill relations underutilized and maintaining a gap between high-level skills and executable actions. In this paper, we propose HiSkill, a hierarchical skill graph framework that organizes interaction trajectories into a directed graph with skill nodes, AtomicOp nodes, and typed edges. Specifically, the graph connects reusable high-level skills with executable action templates, while also capturing decomposition, temporal transition, compatibility, support, and recovery relations among them. At inference time, HiSkill retrieves a compact task-relevant subgraph and performs subgraph-guided task execution, where a symbolic task state, an active skill, and the retrieved subgraph guide the LLM agent to switch skills, select AtomicOps, and ground executable actions iteratively. Experiments on three interactive environments show that HiSkill outperforms state-of-the-art baselines while reducing inference token consumption, demonstrating the effectiveness of bridging high-level skills and executable action grounding through a hierarchical skill graph.

MASFactory: A Graph-centric Framework for Orchestrating LLM-Based Multi-Agent Systems with Vibe Graphing
Large language model-based (LLM-based) multi-agent systems (MAS) are increasingly used to extend agentic problem solving via role specialization and collaboration. MAS workflows can be naturally modeled as directed computation graphs, where nodes execute agents/sub-workflows and edges encode dependencies and message passing. However, implementing complex graph workflows in current frameworks still requires substantial manual effort, offers limited reuse, and makes it difficult to integrate heterogeneous external context sources. To overcome these limitations, we present MASFactory, a graph-centric framework for orchestrating LLM-based MAS. It introduces Vibe Graphing, a human-in-the-loop approach that compiles natural-language intent into an editable workflow specification and then into an executable graph. In addition, the framework provides reusable components and pluggable context integration, as well as a visualizer for topology preview, runtime tracing, and human-in-the-loop interaction. We evaluate MASFactory on seven public benchmarks, validating both reproduction consistency for representative MAS methods and the effectiveness of Vibe Graphing.
