Existing approaches predict suspect steps via classifiers or LLM judges, or recover correct answers via retry, but none feed the intervention outcome back to \emph{refine the attribution itself}. We propose \methodname, a method that closes this gap by diagnosing a candidate error step, testing it through controlled replay wit
As LLM agents become increasingly complex and are deployed in real-world scenarios, the need for robust error diagnostic and attribution tools becomes critical to their reliability and adoption.
This development addresses a key limitation in LLM agent performance, enabling more reliable and autonomous operation by providing better mechanisms for identifying and correcting 'silent failures' that hinder current systems.
The ability to attribute and fix silent failures through intervention-supported diagnosis significantly improves the debugging and development lifecycle for LLM agents, making them more practical for complex tasks.
