TRAJDEBUG: Tracing Error Lifecycle to Identify Critical Failures in Long-Horizon Agent Trajectories
arXiv cs.AI · Published · 3 min read

- What happened
- TrajDebug framework identifies critical errors in long multi-step LLM agent trajectories by tracing error lifecycle and determining which failures caused final task failure.
- Why it matters
- Engineers building or debugging LLM-based agents need this when multi-step tasks fail and they must pinpoint which early mistake cascaded into the final error.
- Watch out
- The benchmark contains only 486 manually annotated trajectories from two sources, so performance on other agent types or domains remains unclear.

The patterns behind this
Each one covers how the technique works, when it earns its cost, and where it breaks.
