EnvSched is an online scheduler that learns from rollout history to make agentic reinforcement learning more efficient. It assigns scheduling value by prioritizing tasks likely to yield informative reward differences and spreading batches across underobserved environments and interaction patterns. By modeling environment–task pairs as a dual‑relation graph and propagating historical rollout statistics, EnvSched predicts reward variance and guides batch allocation, achieving higher scores than random selection within fewer training steps on Qwen3‑8B.

AgentFly is an agentic reinforcement learning framework that introduces a unified resource layer to manage heterogeneous environments—such as sandboxes, model services, and external APIs—through a single scheduling engine. The framework is organized into four layers: an agent layer that abstracts agents, tools, and rewards; a rollout layer that composes agent loops and computes rewards; a context layer that organizes rollouts and injects contextual information; and a low‑level resource layer that handles resource management. AgentFly offers prebuilt tools and environments, demonstrates successful agent training across multiple tasks and models, and provides the first controlled cross‑framework throughput comparison against other agentic RL frameworks.

RISED introduces a framework that uses rubric-based textual feedback to improve training of a single large language model (LLM) agent across multiple interactive environments. By having an LLM judge tag rollouts with a shared rubric vocabulary, the system guides both online data selection and policy supervision, enabling richer cross‑environment relationships and within‑group reward contrast. Experiments show that RISED achieves the highest mean pass rate and ranks first or second in every individual environment, with rubric analysis revealing behavioural changes behind these gains.

arXiv:2608. 06197v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training large language model agents for long-horizon tool use typically relies on interactions with real or synthesized executable environments, whose construction and verification are costly, or on external simulators that are difficult to ground.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is becoming increasingly important for post-training large language models (LLMs). Previous RL pipelines for LLMs were mostly synchronous and batch-interleaved, which is inefficient for long-horizon agentic tasks.
arXiv:2510. 05592v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Outcome-driven reinforcement learning has advanced reasoning in large language models (LLMs), but prevailing tool-augmented approaches train a single, monolithic policy that interleaves thoughts and tool calls under full context; this scales poorly with long horizons and diverse tools and generalizes weakly to new scenarios.

arXiv:2606. 03892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training LLMs to orchestrate multi-step tool calls is held back by three coupled obstacles: realistic stateful execution environments are costly to build, synthetic training queries are often detached from the server's actual state (so the generated tool calls fail to execute), and recall-based RL rewards incentivize verbose tool-calling patterns.
