Synthesizing Procedural Memory: Challenges and Architectures in Automated Workflow Generation

Nishant Gaurav, Adit Akarsh, Ankit Ranjan et al.

While CodeMem establishes executable code as the optimal representation for agentic procedural memory, the mechanism for autonomously synthesizing this memory from a blank slate remains underexplored. This paper operationalizes the transition of Large Language Models from passive tool-users to active workflow architects. Through a high-fidelity case study of a cross-service orchestration task involving Outlook and OneDrive, we identify and address four structural bottlenecks in automated skill generation: the Discovery Gap involving navigation of large tool registries, the Verification Gap regarding grounding tool response structures, the Decomposition Gap which replaces inefficient search with Linear State Anchoring, and the Scaling Gap focused on concurrency and persistence. We demonstrate that by enforcing a scientific methodology of hypothesize, probe, and code, agents can autonomously write robust, production-grade code skills.

Dynamic ReAct: Scalable Tool Selection for Large-Scale MCP Environments

Nishant Gaurav, Adit Akarsh, Ankit Ranjan et al.

We present Dynamic ReAct, a novel approach for enabling ReAct agents to efficiently operate with extensive Model Control Protocol (MCP) tool sets that exceed the contextual memory limitations of large language models. Our approach addresses the fundamental challenge of tool selection in environments containing hundreds or thousands of available tools, where loading all tools simultaneously is computationally infeasible. We propose and evaluate five distinct architectures that progressively refine the tool selection process, culminating in a search-and-load mechanism that achieves intelligent tool selection with minimal computational overhead. Our experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach reduces tool loading by up to 50% while maintaining task completion accuracy, advancing the path towards truly general-purpose AI agents capable of dynamically adapting to diverse task environments.

Automatic Differentiation for All Photons Imaging to See Inside Volumetric Scattering Media

Tomohiro Maeda, Ankit Ranjan, Ramesh Raskar

Imaging through dense scattering media - such as biological tissue, fog, and smoke - has applications in the medical and robotics fields. We propose a new framework using automatic differentiation for All Photons Imaging through homogeneous scattering media with unknown optical properties for non-invasive sensing and diagnostics. We overcome the need for the imaging target to be visible to the illumination source in All Photons Imaging, enabling practical and non-invasive imaging through turbid media with a simple optical setup. Our method does not require calibration to acquire the sensor position or optical properties of the media.
