Weak-Link Optimization for Multi-Agent Reasoning and Collaboration

LLM-driven multi-agent frameworks address complex reasoning tasks through multi-role collaboration. However, existing approaches often suffer from reasoning instability, where individual agent errors are amplified through collaboration, undermining overall performance. Current research mainly focuses on enhancing high-capability agents or suppressing unreliable outputs to improve framework effectiveness, while systematic identification and reinforcement of performance-limiting agents receive less attention. To address this gap, we propose WORC, a \underline{w}eak-link \underline{o}ptimization framework for multi-agent \underline{r}easoning and \underline{c}ollaboration, grounded in the weak-link principle. WORC follows a two-stage workflow. In the weak agent localization stage, task features are constructed, and a meta-learning-based weight predictor trained on optimal configurations identified by swarm intelligence algorithms (SIAs) enables zero-shot mapping from these features to agent performance weights, where the agent with the lowest predicted weight is identified as the weak agent. In the weak-link optimization stage, an uncertainty-driven allocation strategy assigns additional reasoning budgets to weak agents, with lower predicted weights leading to larger repeated-sampling quotas to compensate for reliability deficiencies. Experimental results show that WORC achieves an average accuracy of 82.2\% on reasoning benchmarks while improving framework stability and cross-architecture generalization, suggesting that compensating for weak links, rather than reinforcing strengths alone, enhances the robustness of multi-agent systems.
