arXiv:2608.29305v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents have demonstrated remarkable proficiency in manually constructed environments, yet their performance frequently collapses when transitioned to complex real-world settings. Existing research largely attribute this degradation to the compositional generalization gaps in LLMs on combinations of multiple simple, well-structured environments. In this work, we propose that LLM web agents can learn simple environment observations at test time. Specifically, we introduce trial steps for agents to decompose a complex environment observation into sub-modules, and implement a label-free learning method, Test-Time Environment Decomposition (TTED), to adapt agent behaviors with experience during inference. Our empirical evaluations demonstrate the framework's efficacy across both synthetic and realistic benchmarks, showing (1) experience gains acquired within simpler sub-environments can be effectively composed to improve performance in the full one, and (2) test-time training on sub-environments can significantly enhance the compositional generalization of agents in real-world web automation tasks. We also provide key insights in the design of the label-free learning algorithm. As more complex environments are accessed by LLM agents, we believe learning environment decomposition skills at test time will be critical for robust real-world deployment.
