RecSys Factory：将 LLM Agent 自主性限定于工业推荐系统生命周期的决策节点

arXiv:2608.11241v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying LLM agents into industrial recommender operations exposes a three-way tension we frame as the autonomy-determinism-efficiency trilemma: general autonomy (interpreting operator intent, generating glue code zero-shot), industrial determinism (schema-conforming feature extraction, non-crashing A/B, zero compliance-path hallucination), and end-to-end efficiency. Any two can be maximized against the third. We present RecSys Factory, an LLM-agent platform deployed for 78 days across three heterogeneous Tencent recommender business lines. The design principle is autonomy at decision points, not over pipelines, made concrete through three deconstructions that each discharge one vertex of the trilemma. Runtime is deconstructed into three host-emitted event sources (Claude Code Stop hooks, corporate-IM webhooks, workflow scheduler APIs): the platform carries no long-running daemon during the wait phase and consumes zero CPU during the 94% of wall-clock spent waiting on Spark or GPU jobs. Capability is deconstructed into a 29-file skill ecosystem (8,971 lines of SKILL.md) whose per-skill pitfall tables mechanically compile into a 400-entry PitfallStore, confining autonomy to bounded typed decision surfaces inside pre-committed pipelines. Deployment spans three business lines with disjoint label semantics, A/B layer topologies, and operator personas; an onboarding-time compression is observed on two of the three and is reported as a case-study observation, not a generalization claim, and not measured against a controlled pre-platform baseline. The human is retained at the diagnostic-versus-execution boundary via a human-in-the-loop card protocol, deployed as an audit-trail primitive (schema-validated, idempotent, replayable) and reported from an 8-day 16-run pilot. Across the 78-day window the platform recorded 1,624 CLI-tool dispatches at a 78.6% aggregate success rate.
