Abstract
Large language model agents can invoke tools fluently, but enterprise workflows demand more than selecting the right tools: actions must strictly comply with organizational policies, tool feedback often conceals hidden side effects under partial observability, and long-horizon tasks require persistent state tracking across multiple records. To address these challenges, we introduce E-Ledger, a multi-agent harness for safe and persistent execution. E-Ledger employs a code approval layer that checks every proposed action against policy before execution, and maintains a world ledger of verified hidden rules alongside evidence-backed dynamic state. Because hidden rules are typically unknown a priori, we further propose WorldAbduct, an abductive, world-model-driven harness evolution framework. WorldAbduct diagnoses execution trajectories across four complementary views (state consistency, world-observation gap, policy-gate correctness, and goal judgment) to hypothesize latent rules, and verifies them through targeted abductive interactions before integrating them into the ledger. On the enterprise benchmark World of Workflows, E-Ledger with WorldAbduct improves safe task completion across four LLM backbones, outperforming the strongest evolution baseline by 5--15 percentage points. Experiments in ScienceWorld and DiscoveryWorld further show that abductive harness evolution carries over to scientific environments. Our code is available at this https URL.
