Self-evolving methods improve the capabilities of LLM agents by sampling trajectories from the underlying LLMs and learning from these trajectories. However, these methods struggle to learn beyond the inherent capability boundary of the agents, since the agents cannot sample correct trajectories on difficult examples for further improvements.

arXiv:2606. 07367v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently emerged as powerful controllers for interactive agents in complex environments, yet training them to perform reliable long-horizon decision making remains a fundamental challenge.
Self-distillation improves reasoning in large language models by using the model's own rollouts as training signal, typically through implicit logit-level alignment that minimizes KL divergence toward a privileged target distribution. However, because this supervision is generated via uncontrolled sampling, it provides no diagnostic insight into the model's specific errors or corrective guidance for its individual failure patterns.
