@TEKnologyy Thanks, Danny! Really happy to co-organize the SIGIR workshop with you!

[Bin Wu ✈️ ACL 2026 @binwu_cs]

Excited to attend #ACL2026, #ICML2026 & #SIGIR2026 this July! 🎉

Presenting 3 papers at ACL & ICML and organizing the AgentSearch Workshop at SIGIR.

If you’re attending too, let’s connect! Looking forward to meeting you there.

I’m a PhD student at UCL @uclcs , affiliated with the UCL NLP Group @ucl_nlp and the UCL Centre for AI @ai_ucl .

My research focuses on LLM agents, orchestration systems, agent evaluation & diagnosis, and agent/tool search. Find more on my personal website.

🚀 New paper: AgentSearchBench — a benchmark for AI agent search in the wild.

As agent ecosystems grow, a fundamental question emerges: how do we find the right agent for a task?

We build a benchmark with ~10k real-world agents and show:

• Semantic similarity ≠ agent performance
• Description-based ranking often underestimates capable agents
• Execution-aware probing improves ranking

[Bin Wu ✈️ ACL 2026 @binwu_cs]

Excited to share that 3 of my papers are accepted to #ACL2026 🎉

I’m fortunate to contribute as a main author (1st/2nd author) across these works:

• 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀𝗲𝘁𝘀: 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗘𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗟𝗠 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘃𝗶𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (Findings)
Follow-up to my ACL work last year (paper: https://t.co/L3ldexgI7c), we study how LLM agents adapt to evolving tool ecosystems via continual documentation adaptation.

@_sambhavkothari That’s an insightful observation. It makes me think CLI and code-MCP function more like planners, while token-MCP acts more like a task assigner. An orchestration layer could be the ideal way to bring out the best of both worlds.
