arXiv:2606.29126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) often relies on communication to mitigate partial observability, yet most existing protocols treat messages as flat dense vectors detached from the structure of the observations they summarize. This design overlooks an important source of inductive bias in many cooperative environments, where observations naturally follow a hierarchy such as groups and entities. We propose \textsc{HiComm}, a plug-in communication module that grounds messages in the sender's hierarchical observation. \textsc{Hi
