In-the-Flow Agentic System Optimization for Effective Planning and Tool Use

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.

Synthesize and Reward -- Reinforcement Learning for Multi-Step Tool Use in Live Environments

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.

Breaking the Solver Bottleneck: Training Task Generators at the Learnable Frontier

arXiv:2606. 18284v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The limiting resource for training agents via reinforcement learning (RL) is increasingly frontier task supply: valid, solvable tasks just difficult enough to train the current model.

DORA: A Scalable Asynchronous Reinforcement Learning System for Language Model Training

arXiv:2604. 26256v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a critical paradigm for LLM post-training, yet the rollout phase -- accounting for 50--80% of total step time -- is bottlenecked by skewed generation: long-tailed trajectories indispensable for model performance block the entire training pipeline.

Post-Trained MoE Can Skip Half Experts via Self-Distillation

arXiv:2605. 18643v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) scales language models efficiently through sparse expert activation, and its dynamic variant further reduces computation by adjusting the activated experts in an input-dependent manner.

SIRI: Self-Internalizing Reinforcement Learning with Intrinsic Skills for LLM Agent Training

arXiv:2606. 02355v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon LLM agents can benefit from reusable skills, yet existing skill-based methods often rely on external skill generators during training or persistent skill retrieval at inference, increasing engineering complexity, context length, and deployment latency.
