WeaveAgent: A Two-Stage Tool-Routing Agent for Ultra-High-Resolution Remote Sensing Imagery

Zhongyu Pang

Problem. Ultra-high-resolution (UHR) remote sensing with vague user intents has two bottlenecks: visual tokens are expensive, and tool calling must be format-reliable (pretrained models emit zero tool calls zero-shot). Method. WeaveAgent, a two-stage tool-routing agent, decouples routing from visual perception. Stage A is routing-first: emission is trained, not elicited. Stage B executes conditionally: intrinsic queries enter visual answering (full-scene thumbnail; a WeaveEarth-style evidence board as an optional fixed-budget, approx. 5k-token compression interface); extrinsic queries execute tool call on original full-resolution imagery, answering from tool observations in a second, observation-masked round. Training: alignment SFT, then GRPO under reward R_WA2. Results. Alignment SFT lifts extrinsic routing from 0% to 80.75% (323/400); GRPO suppresses 9 intrinsic mis-emissions while tool selection is unchanged. The trained 2B system does not beat the zero-shot 8B baseline overall (0.263 vs. 0.250), a diagnostic contribution. Oracle attribution separates two repair ingredients: loading the observation into context lifts extrinsic answer accuracy from 0.025 to 0.425 under…
