Large language model-based multi-agent systems are evolving from fixed interaction topologies toward dynamically orchestrated Agent Swarms. However, existing benchmarks are still largely based on single-agent or general-purpose agent tasks, making it difficult to systematically evaluate key orchestration capabilities. We propose SwarmBench, a benchmark that evaluates model performance from multiple perspectives, including accuracy, efficiency, cost, and process quality. Experimental results show that current models exhibit substantial differences in orchestration capability. These differences are reflected not only in final accuracy, efficiency, and cost, but also in the overall quality of the orchestration process itself. Based on these findings, we further propose SwarmExp, a simple yet effective method based on experience extraction and experience replay, which consistently improves the orchestration performance of large language models.
Deployed large language model agents must adapt to distribution shift in dynamic environments. Ideally, adaptation can be performed from accumulated agent experiences and retain prior capabilities while transferring to future tasks. However, agent actions and environmental transitions can only be sampled once per scenario, as real-world environments cannot be trivially reset. To this end, we investigate an experiential and online continual learning setting in which agents learn from a stream of scenarios. We propose continual learning as-a-service (CLaaS), a system which enables agents to improve during deployment, abstracted behind a chat API. To increase sample efficiency, CLaaS stores rollouts in an experience replay buffer for gradient reuse during asynchronous training. We evaluate CLaaS on an adversarial task, demonstrating that parametric updates lead to superior forward transfer and less forgetting than in-context learning, with replay being a critical choice for sample efficiency.
