Capability Gap Detection: The Metacognitive Layer That Enables Self-Extending Agents
How agents recognize what they cannot do and trigger autonomous self-extension through formal gap analysis
Self-extending agents require a prerequisite that most architectures ignore: the ability to know what they do not know. This paper formalizes capability gap detection as a metacognitive layer that compares required capabilities against the agent's capability model, classifies detected gaps, prioritizes them by urgency and impact, and decides whether to synthesize, request, delegate, or escalate. We introduce the capability coverage metric, gap entropy measure, and multi-agent gap negotiation protocol. Experimental results show that agents with formal gap detection achieve 4.1x fewer silent failures and 2.8x faster self-extension compared to agents relying on runtime error detection.
Capability Gap Detection — Agentが自分の能力不足を認識するメタ認知アーキテクチャ
形式的ギャップ分析を通じて、自分にできないことを認識し自律的な自己拡張をトリガーする方法
自己拡張型Agentには、ほとんどのアーキテクチャが無視する前提条件がある。自分に何ができないかを知る能力である。本論文はCapability Gap Detectionをメタ認知レイヤーとして形式化する。必要な能力をAgentの能力モデルと比較し、検出されたギャップを分類し、緊急度とインパクトで優先順位付けし、合成・要求・委任・エスカレーションの判断を下す。能力カバレッジメトリック、ギャップエントロピー測度、マルチAgent間ギャップ交渉プロトコルを導入する。
