用树状多智能体协作，高效探索分子设计的多重优化路径。

Multi-objective molecular optimization requires searching vast chemical spaces under conflicting objectives, where early design decisions strongly constrain downstream outcomes. Existing methods typically rely on a single policy or fixed scalarization, which limits their ability to represent diverse trade-offs and to explore multiple promising design trajectories. We propose ATOM, a multi-agent framework that formulates molecular optimization as a tree-structured search. Each node corresponds to an atomic operation and hosts an agent specialized for a particular objective or decision context. Agents coordinate along different paths of the tree rather than enforcing a global consensus, enabling the method to maintain and compare alternative molecular evolution trajectories. A global memory of past optimization behaviors further supports balanced exploration and exploitation across objectives. This tree-structured interaction enables reasoning over long-horizon dependencies inherent in molecular design. Experiments on challenging multi-objective benchmarks involving activity, synthesizability, and ADMET-related properties show that ATOM consistently achieves improved Pareto coverage and hypervolume over strong baselines. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of pathwise multi-agent coordination for molecular optimization. Code is available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/ATOM-41CE.
