We introduce Reasoning Primitive Induction, a single-pass method that mines successful ReAct traces, clusters recurrent reasoning moves, and converts the most frequent moves into a compact library of typed pseudo-tools. Each pseudo-tool is specified by a natural-language docstring interpreted by an LLM at invocation time, and a standard ReAct loop composes these primitives at test time. The central resu
The rapid advancement and adoption of large language models (LLMs) and agentic systems necessitates more efficient and robust methods for inducing complex reasoning, pushing researchers to optimize their operational capabilities.
This development moves LLM agents from transient, ad-hoc problem-solving towards more systematic, reusable, and composable reasoning components, significantly enhancing their reliability and scalability.
Instead of LLMs rediscovering reasoning routines repeatedly, they can now leverage a learned library of 'pseudo-tools,' leading to more efficient, consistent, and potentially auditable agent behavior.

AI agents become more efficient and capable of handling complex, multi-step tasks across various domains.
The cost of developing and deploying advanced AI agents decreases as reasoning components become standardized and reusable.
This could accelerate the automation of white-collar tasks, potentially leading to significant shifts in workforce demands and industry structures.
