LinkAnchor: An Autonomous LLM-Based Agent for Issue-to-Commit Link Recovery

Abbas Heydarnoori, Alireza Hoseinpour, Arshia Akhavan, Hamid Bagheri, Mehdi Keshani

LinkAnchor recovers issue-to-commit links using an LLM agent that lazily fetches only needed context instead of checking every pair.

Claims

C1strongest claim

LinkAnchor is the first autonomous LLM-based agent designed specifically for issue-to-commit link recovery that uses a lazy-access architecture to dynamically retrieve relevant contextual data without exceeding token limits.

C2weakest assumption

The assumption that an LLM agent can reliably decide which commits, comments, or code files are relevant to fetch next and that this selective retrieval will capture the complete resolution logic better than exhaustive pairwise evaluation.

C3one line summary

LinkAnchor is an LLM-based autonomous agent with lazy-access architecture for recovering issue-to-commit links in software repositories.
