MeshHeal: Two-Timescale Self-Healing for Gray Failures in Decentralized LLM Agent Networks
摘要
arXiv:2609.29015v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decentralized LLM-based multi-agent systems coordinate through local interactions, but an agent can remain responsive while its task-solving quality persistently degrades. Such gray failures require protecting current tasks before sufficient evidence exists to alter future routing, while still allowing recovered agents to rejoin. We introduce MeshHeal, a fully decentralized self-healing framework that couples ability-matched peer review across two timescales. At the fast timescale, an adaptive hierarchy escalates uncertain or low-scoring outputs from repeated single-reviewer evaluation to committee deliberation and, when needed, correction before use. At the slow timescale, a task- and ability-conditioned peer-relative detector aggregates scores to distinguish persistent degradation from ordinary output variation, trigger mandatory committee review, and eventually exclude degraded agents from ordinary routing; recovery probes provide fresh evidence for reintegration. To faithfully evaluate routing, we introduce Model-Backed MAS Evaluation, which ties ability assignments to execution models, since prompt-based ability assignments alone can leave routing errors hidden. Across BBH, MATH, and MMLU-Pro, MeshHeal achieves 0.839 degraded-phase accuracy using 51k total model tokens per task, versus the strongest baseline Symphony's 0.807 accuracy using 115k per task. Under staggered degradation and recovery, MeshHeal isolates degraded
