Researchers have developed Asclepius, a novel adaptive agent scaffolding designed to improve the performance of LLM agents in long-horizon clinical scenarios. Unlike agents typically evaluated on short tasks, Asclepius is tested on a simulated emergency department shift, revealing execution gaps in delivering complete and timely critical actions. The system addresses three failure modes: instruction-adherence drift, treatment incompleteness, and a severity-equity gap in timeliness. Asclepius incorporates a self-evolving harness, an externalized clinical skills library, and partitioned subagents, leading to a 22% improvement in critical-action correctness and a 13% gain in timeliness on held-out data.
