Abstract
In LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS), a local mistake can propagate as other agents build on it, turning a correctable error into a failed task. Diagnosing completed runs or repeatedly re-executing them to search for corrections does not provide a learned policy for intervening while execution is still in progress. We present Agent Runtime Inspection and Amendment (ARIA), a framework for learning when and how to repair ongoing multi-agent executions. Our key intuition is to turn execution-verified repairs into reusable supervision, moving repair search into data construction and training so that a learned model can intervene at runtime without repeatedly testing alternatives. First, we collect over 24{,}000 successful and failed trajectories across four multi-agent frameworks, six benchmarks, and eight host models. From these trajectories, we construct the ARIA dataset, to our knowledge the first large-scale dataset pairing failed multi-agent trajectories with execution-verified repairs. It contains 3{,}953 verified repair pairs, each specifying what went wrong, where to intervene, and how execution should continue. Then, we develop the ARIA framework for MAS-agnostic runtime inspection and amendment, designed to integrate with any MAS that exposes execution trajectories and supports continuation replacement. Using verified repairs as training examples, we teach a compact model to recognize when intervention is needed and how to correct an ongoing run. The aim is to learn repair strategies that apply to related failures in new configurations, rather than merely reproduce individual corrections. Finally, the trained ARIA model demonstrates strong repair performance in both post-hoc and runtime settings, with generalization to unseen frameworks and host models.
