TRACE: Trajectory Reasoning through Adaptive Cross-Step Evidence Aggregation for LLM Agents
Research proposes monitoring framework for LLM agents that could execute covert sabotage through benign-seeming action sequences, addressing blind spots in current enterprise AI governance.

arXiv:2606.07054v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous LLM agents can pursue hidden malicious objectives through sequences of individually benign actions, making sabotage difficult to detect using standard trajectory-level monitoring. Existing approaches either evaluate complete trajectories in a single pass or partition them into independently scored windows, limiting their ability to connect evidence across temporally distant actions. We propose TRACE, a monitoring framework for long-ho
