Researchers have developed AgentOCR, a novel framework designed to reduce the high token and memory costs associated with large language model (LLM) agent histories. AgentOCR achieves this by converting the agent's interaction history into compact images, leveraging the superior information density of visual tokens. The system incorporates segment optical caching to avoid redundant re-rendering and employs agentic self-compression, allowing the agent to adaptively balance task success with token efficiency. Experiments on benchmarks like ALFWorld and search-based QA demonstrate that AgentOCR maintains over 95% of text-based agent performance while significantly reducing token consumption by more than 50%.
