The paper presents an agentic retrobiosynthesis framework that uses a learned frontier selection policy to guide multistep retrosynthesis in a deterministic biochemical engine. By fine‑tuning a Qwen2.5‑7B policy with LoRA, the authors achieve higher solve rates than traditional MCTS across several benchmarks, demonstrating that route‑supervised frontier selection can improve search efficiency without changing the underlying reaction model.
