Abstract
Omni-modal agents must seek evidence across video, audio, web pages, and computation to answer questions. Their main bottleneck is planning: noisy multimodal observations accumulate in conversation history and disrupt later decisions, while multimodal models have limited capacity for multi-step planning. Controlled backend replacements support this diagnosis: replacing the planner causes a much larger performance loss than replacing the perception backend. We present Omni-Decision, an omni-modal agent built on evidence-ledger planning: it replaces the growing dialogue history with an explicit evidence ledger that records what evidence is still missing, what has been confirmed, and where records conflict. A critic reads each noisy observation and passes only the usable content to the ledger, discarding the rest, so the planner works from a compact context throughout the task. Each run records the state, action, and verdict at every step, and supervised fine-tuning and decision-level reinforcement learning on these trajectories further improve the planner. Omni-Decision achieves state-of-the-art accuracy of 81.4% on OmniGAIA at approximately 43% of Gemini-3.1-Pro's cost per question, and 65.0% on WorldSense long-video understanding, level with the strongest end-to-end model.
