The pith

ToolRec calibrates click logs at two levels to align query recommendations with executable system tools in on-device assistants.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The paper sets out to adapt large language model alignment for on-device assistants, where the main user goal is fast invocation of system-level tools rather than open-ended chat. Standard alignment on raw click data fails because activity levels differ across users and the logs under-emphasize queries that lead to tool execution. ToolRec first assembles a repository of 708 system tools with context-aware retrieval, then applies dual-level calibration to adjust signals for user activity and to boost weight on tool-invoking clicks. These cleaned signals guide sample-level weighted KTO to produce the final model. Real deployment tests on a platform with over 150 million monthly users measure whether the resulting recommendations receive more clicks while remaining relevant.

Core claim

ToolRec constructs SysToolKit containing 708 system tools paired with context-aware retrieval, applies dual-level calibration to raw click logs that adjusts for varying user activity levels while up-weighting tool-invoking queries, and aligns the model via sample-level weighted Kahneman-Tversky Optimization, yielding higher click-through rates and click volumes in online A/B tests while preserving query relevance.

What carries the argument

Dual-level calibration on click logs that corrects for user activity levels and up-weights tool-invoking queries, used to supply preference signals for weighted KTO alignment.

Load-bearing premise

The dual-level calibration on raw click logs produces preference signals that accurately reflect user intent without introducing new selection biases or distorting the distribution of executable actions.

What would settle it

An A/B test on the OPPO Xiaobu platform in which the ToolRec model produces no statistically significant gain in CTR or total clicks relative to the uncalibrated baseline.

read the original abstract

Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced generative query recommendation. However, existing alignment methods primarily focus on standard chatbot scenarios, falling short in on-device intelligent assistants where users predominantly expect the rapid invocation of system-level tools. Moreover, directly aligning LLMs with real-world click logs introduces severe noise due to varying user activity levels and the failure to emphasize execution-oriented queries. To address these challenges, we propose ToolRec, a calibrated preference alignment framework tailored for on-device query recommendation. To ground query recommendation with executable actions, we first construct SysToolKit, a comprehensive repository of 708 system tools, paired with a context-aware tool retrieval mechanism to ensure recommendation relevance. We then propose a dual-level calibration mechanism to refine raw click data, effectively mitigating user behavioral noise by calibrating signals based on user activity levels, while simultaneously up-weighting click signals on system-level tool-invoking queries. Guided by these refined preference signals, we then align the model using a sample-level weighted Kahneman-Tversky Optimization (KTO). Extensive online A/B tests on our mobile assistant platform OPPO Xiaobu, which has over 150 million monthly active users, demonstrate that ToolRec can significantly improve Click-Through Rate (CTR) and total clicks volume over strong baselines while maintaining high query relevance.

Referee Report

3 major / 2 minor

Summary. The paper proposes ToolRec, a calibrated preference alignment framework for query recommendation in on-device assistants. It introduces SysToolKit (708 system tools with context-aware retrieval), applies dual-level calibration to raw click logs (activity-level adjustment plus up-weighting of tool-invoking queries) to reduce behavioral noise, and aligns an LLM via sample-level weighted KTO. Large-scale A/B tests on OPPO Xiaobu (150M+ MAU) report gains in CTR and total clicks over baselines while preserving relevance.

Significance. If the dual-level calibration demonstrably improves preference signal fidelity without new selection biases, the work would be significant for production on-device assistants, where tool invocation is central. The scale of the online evaluation is a clear strength, providing real-world evidence that is rare in alignment papers. However, the absence of isolated validation for the calibration step limits the ability to attribute gains specifically to the proposed mechanism.

major comments (3)
  1. [Abstract / Dual-level calibration section] Abstract and methods description of dual-level calibration: the central claim requires that activity-level adjustment plus tool-query up-weighting produces preference signals that more accurately reflect intent than raw logs. No ablation, offline relevance metric, or human judgment study isolates this step from SysToolKit retrieval or KTO weighting; A/B gains could arise from other components.
  2. [Online A/B test results] Results section on A/B tests: the manuscript reports CTR and click-volume improvements but supplies no error bars, statistical significance tests, data exclusion rules, or per-user activity stratification. This makes it impossible to verify whether the reported gains are robust or driven by the calibration.
  3. [Dual-level calibration mechanism] Calibration mechanism: if user activity levels correlate with query length, session depth, or device context, up-weighting tool-invoking clicks may shift the distribution away from the target on-device population, introducing rather than removing bias. No diagnostic comparing calibrated vs. raw signal distributions is provided.
minor comments (2)
  1. [Abstract] The abstract states 'maintaining high query relevance' but provides no offline or online metric (e.g., relevance score, human rating) to support this claim.
  2. [Alignment section] Notation for the weighted KTO objective and the exact calibration weights should be formalized with equations for reproducibility.

  1. Referee: [Abstract / Dual-level calibration section] Abstract and methods description of dual-level calibration: the central claim requires that activity-level adjustment plus tool-query up-weighting produces preference signals that more accurately reflect intent than raw logs. No ablation, offline relevance metric, or human judgment study isolates this step from SysToolKit retrieval or KTO weighting; A/B gains could arise from other components.

    Authors: We agree that the manuscript would benefit from explicit isolation of the dual-level calibration's contribution. The reported A/B gains reflect the full ToolRec pipeline, and the original submission did not include a dedicated ablation separating calibration from retrieval and alignment. In the revised version we will add an offline ablation comparing calibrated versus raw click signals on held-out relevance metrics to better attribute performance improvements. revision: yes

  2. Referee: [Online A/B test results] Results section on A/B tests: the manuscript reports CTR and click-volume improvements but supplies no error bars, statistical significance tests, data exclusion rules, or per-user activity stratification. This makes it impossible to verify whether the reported gains are robust or driven by the calibration.

    Authors: We acknowledge that the A/B test reporting lacks the requested statistical details. The original manuscript omitted error bars, significance tests, exclusion rules, and activity stratification, which limits verifiability. In the revision we will incorporate standard errors or confidence intervals, results of appropriate significance tests, explicit data exclusion criteria, and per-user activity stratification to demonstrate robustness of the observed CTR and click-volume gains. revision: yes

  3. Referee: [Dual-level calibration mechanism] Calibration mechanism: if user activity levels correlate with query length, session depth, or device context, up-weighting tool-invoking clicks may shift the distribution away from the target on-device population, introducing rather than removing bias. No diagnostic comparing calibrated vs. raw signal distributions is provided.

    Authors: We recognize the validity of this concern about possible distribution shift. The dual-level calibration is intended to reduce activity-level noise while emphasizing tool-invoking queries, yet the manuscript provides no explicit diagnostic comparing calibrated and raw distributions. In the revised manuscript we will add a diagnostic analysis section that compares key distributional properties (query length, session depth, device context, and activity correlations) before and after calibration to verify bias mitigation. revision: yes

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged

No circularity: framework relies on external A/B validation and standard KTO without self-referential reductions

full rationale

The provided abstract and description contain no equations, derivations, or parameter-fitting steps that reduce predictions to inputs by construction. The dual-level calibration is described as a preprocessing step on click logs, followed by KTO alignment and online A/B testing on 150M users; these are presented as empirical improvements rather than mathematical identities. No self-citations, uniqueness theorems, or ansatzes are invoked in the text. The central claims rest on external platform experiments, which are falsifiable outside the paper's fitted values. This is the common case of a self-contained applied method paper with no detectable circularity in its derivation chain.
