SkillRouter: Retrieve-and-Rerank Skill Selection for LLM Agents at Scale

ArXi:2603.22455v1 Announce Type: new As LLM agent ecosystems grow, the number of available skills (tools, plugins) has reached tens of thousands, making it infeasible to inject all skills into an agent's context. This creates a need for skill routing -- retrieving the most relevant skills from a large pool given a user task. The problem is compounded by pervasive functional overlap in community skill repositories, where many skills share similar names and purposes yet differ in implementation details. Despite its practical importance, skill routing remains under-explored.
