Skill-MAS

Automatic generation of multi-agent systems is stuck between inference-time methods that reuse frozen frontier models but never learn, and training-time methods that internalize experience through gradient updates but are capped by the weaker models small enough to fine-tune. Skill-MAS proposes a third path that treats high-level orchestration as an evolvable Meta-Skill, decoupling experience retention from weight updates so frontier models keep getting better at orchestration without any gradient steps. Across four complex benchmarks and four distinct LLMs it delivers strong, transferable gains at a favorable cost-performance trade-off.
