Agents powered by large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong planning and decision-making capabilities in complex embodied environments. However, such agents often suffer from inefficiencies in multi-turn interactions, frequently trapped in repetitive loops or issuing ineffective commands, leading to redundant computational overhead. Instead of relying solely on learning from trajectories, we take a first step toward exploring the early-exit behavior for LLM-based agents. We propose two complementary approaches, 1. an **intrinsic** method that injects exit instructions during generation, and 2. an **extrinsic** method that verifies task completion to determine when to halt an agent’s trial. To evaluate early-exit mechanisms, we introduce two metrics: one measures the reduction of **redundant steps** as a positive effect, and the other evaluates **progress degradation** as a negative effect. Experiments with 4 different LLMs across 5 embodied environments show significant efficiency improvements, with only minor drops in agent performance. We also validate a practical strategy where a stronger agent assists after an early-exit agent, achieving better performance with the same total steps. We will release our code to support further research.
