LLM Web Agent for Multi-Step Workflows

Master's thesis at Volkswagen AG: an LLM web agent built on agentic context engineering (structured DOM preprocessing), knowledge-graph agent memory, cost-aware routing to vision-language models, and human-in-the-loop guardrails. Strict success rate of 69.7% to 95.9% across multiple benchmarks. Related paper: WCI — The Web Context Interface (CIKM 2026).
