Rep2Skill introduces a representation-guided framework that enables large language model agents to self-evolve their textual skills by analyzing internal representation trajectories from agent rollouts. The method identifies execution turns that deviate from successful dynamics and uses these signals, together with execution contexts, as actionable feedback for targeted skill revision. Experiments with two open-source LLMs across two agent environments demonstrate that Rep2Skill consistently outperforms purely text-based approaches, showing that incorporating internal representations can enhance agent self-improvement.

APEx is a hierarchical framework that organizes a deep research agent’s interaction history into instance-level trajectory memories and category-level procedural skills. It couples these through an Executor, Distiller, and Planner, trained with a three-stage alternating GRPO paradigm to enable reward-guided skill distillation. At test time, distilled skills act as procedural priors for online Planner adaptation via skill-guided reinforcement learning, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on seven benchmarks, outperforming GPT‑5.4 by 14.7 points and the best memory‑augmented baseline by 3.0 points.
