LEDGER: Claim-to-Evidence Trace Graphs for Auditing LLM Agents (arXiv (via papers.cool))
paper · Story page

LEDGER groups raw execution records into evidence and workflow nodes, with typed edges linking each claim an agent makes to the actions, artifacts, and checks behind it. The premise: as agents work faster, the bottleneck moves from producing outputs to auditing them.
In plain words
- Researchers built Layered Evidence and Decision Graphs for Execution Review, or LEDGER, to link computer-generated claims with the work behind them.
- It groups detailed activity records into larger pieces covering evidence and major work decisions.
- Labeled connections show which actions, files, and checks support each conclusion.
- Reviewers of coding and data work can trace conclusions faster and see missing checks or repairs.
