Luan et al. asked whether existing multi-agent repair methods fix causes or just exploit sampling randomness, and built SymTrace, a replay framework that reconstructs execution up to an intervention anchor from recorded logs and regenerates only the downstream trajectory (arXiv 2608.25920). They also released SymFail, 536 human-annotated failure trajectories with graph-linked locations, categories and trace evidence. Across three mainstream frameworks, symptom-driven intervention repairs 20.15% against unguided rerun's 6.90%. If your repair evaluation doesn't control for rerun luck, a third of your reported fixes are noise.
