Inducing Programmatic Skills for Agentic Tasks

This paper proposes Agent Skill Induction (ASI), which learns executable program-based skills online from web interaction experience and reuses them as tasks evolve. The use of programs makes skill induction verifiable, improving both WebArena success rate and step efficiency over static agents and text-skill baselines while also supporting cross-website transfer.
