SkillSight: Calibrating Generic Content Bias for Skill Retrieval

As large language model agents gain access to increasingly large skill libraries, retrieving the right skill becomes critical to reliable capability selection and execution. Existing retrievers often treat skill contents as ordinary documents, overlooking their highly regular structure: shared descriptive patterns recur across many skills while providing little evidence for distinguishing the required capability. We show that this shared descriptive background is reflected in dense relevance scores, induces a pronounced energy gap between queries and skill documents, and obscures discriminative signals, especially for structurally similar hard negatives. Based on this observation, we prop...
