arXiv Paper Finds Formatting Cues Lost in Agent Document Ingestion
The reliability bottleneck for document-driven agents sits in the ingestion layer, not the reasoning model, so swapping Claude for GPT-5.6 will not fix it. Agent builders working on compliance or policy workflows can instrument conversion pipelines to preserve highlights and colour, and typing the cue explicitly adds a further +0.085 F1 over passive preservation. Since no mainstream converter or parsing benchmark currently scores colour fidelity, teams can gain an edge by auditing their own ingestion against OOXML properties.
