Enhancing large language models (LLMs) with external tools has become a promising approach for solving complex tasks. As the number of available tools grows, context-based prompting methods increasingly rely on retrieval mechanisms. A common solution is to represent each tool with a unique token and train LLMs to generate the corresponding token during inference. However, this approach suffers from linear growth in representation space, leading to scalability challenges. It also limits generalization to novel or rare tools and underutilizes collaborative signals among tools in downstream tasks. In this paper, we propose SGTC, a generative tool invocation framework that introduces structure-aware semantic tokenization to encode tools as discrete code sequences. This method ensures similar tools share subtokens, enabling compression of the representation space and facilitating token sharing for new tools. We further introduce a post-guided, multistage iterative training strategy on a shared backbone model, where collaborative signals from downstream tasks guide the dynamic refinement of tool representations. Extensive experiments on the ToolBench dataset, which includes over 47,000 APIs, demonstrate the effectiveness of SGTC across various tasks, showcasing its potential as a scalable and generalizable generative tool-using paradigm in large-scale tool usage scenarios.

Text-to-image synthesis has made remarkable progress, yet accurately interpreting complex and lengthy prompts remains challenging, often resulting in semantic inconsistencies and missing details. Existing solutions, such as fine-tuning, are model-specific and require training, while prior automatic prompt optimization (APO) approaches typically lack systematic error analysis and refinement strategies, resulting in limited reliability and effectiveness. Meanwhile, test-time scaling methods operate on fixed prompts and on noise or sample numbers, limiting their interpretability and adaptability. To solve these, we introduce a flexible and efficient test-time prompt optimization strategy that operates directly on the input text. We propose a plug-and-play multi-agent system called GenPilot, integrating error analysis, clustering-based adaptive exploration, fine-grained verification, and a memory module for iterative optimization. Our approach is model-agnostic, interpretable, and well-suited for handling long and complex prompts. Simultaneously, we summarize the common patterns of errors and the refinement strategy, offering more experience and encouraging further exploration. Experiments on DPG-bench and Geneval with improvements of up to 16.9% and 5.7% demonstrate the strong capability of our methods in enhancing the text and image consistency and structural coherence of generated images, revealing the effectiveness of our test-time prompt optimization strategy.
