  "title": "M-SQE: Multilingual Skill Quality Estimation for Enhancing Language Equality in Agentic Skill Use",
  "summary": "M-SQE replaces relevance-only ranking of retrieved agent skills with a post-retrieval scoring stage that combines an intrinsic-quality Theory view and a task-grounded Action view into a domain-conditioned score. It costs an additional scoring pass per retrieved candidate, increasing latency and LLM/API call volume, and requires maintaining a candidate skill pool and the scoring prompts or models. It can fail when the quality estimator misjudges synthesized in-language skills, when domains outside the three evaluated ones do not fit the conditioning, or when the underlying skill library lacks any viable candidate to resurface.",
  "rationale": "The method is implementable on constrained infrastructure as a reranking layer over existing retrieval, but its gains are demonstrated only on the paper's constructed skill pools and three domains, so it requires validation on the reader's own skill library and languages before adoption.",
