A Useful Skill Harmed the Coalition
Skill-bank audits found coalition pollution and utility reversals after cross-domain transfer.
Summary
Skill-bank audits found coalition pollution and utility reversals after cross-domain transfer.
The study uses sampled Shapley marginals to select skills and an unlabeled target-domain mask to suppress harmful transfers. Across LoCoMo, LongMemEval, HotpotQA and ALFWorld, the interventions improved performance and generalization while showing why isolation tests can miss a skill that damages the surrounding bank.
