arXiv:2606.04661v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompts tuned for accuracy often grow long, raising inference cost on every model call. The best accuracy-cost trade-off depends on the task and the budget, so prompt optimization is a search over the Pareto front of accuracy and prompt-token cost rather than for one prompt. The usual shortcut, collapsing the objectives into a weighted sum, fixes the trade-off weight before search and often recovers only a narrow region of the front, a failure we call scalarization collapse. We present CRAFT (Cost-aware Refinement And Front-aware Tuning), a Par
