RS-Claw: Active Tool Exploration via Skill Trees for Remote Sensing Agents

ai-technology · 2026-05-14

A new paper introduces RS-Claw, a framework that redefines tool selection for remote sensing agents by enabling active exploration within the tool space. Existing passive paradigms, such as full tool registration (Flat) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), struggle with balancing context load and toolset completeness in massive, multi-source heterogeneous RS tool ecosystems. Full registration causes context deficits in long-horizon tasks, while RAG may omit critical tools. RS-Claw uses hierarchical skill trees to allow agents to dynamically explore and select tools, improving task reasoning. The paper is published on arXiv under ID 2605.13391.

Key facts

  • RS-Claw uses hierarchical skill trees for active tool exploration.
  • Existing RS agents use passive selection paradigms: Flat or RAG.
  • Full tool registration leads to context space deficits in long-horizon tasks.
  • RAG retrieval may omit critical tools in essential steps.
  • The paper argues agents should act as active explorers within the tool space.
  • The framework targets massive, multi-source heterogeneous RS tool ecosystems.
  • The paper is available on arXiv with ID 2605.13391.
  • The approach aims to balance context load and toolset completeness.
