Online training enables computer-use agents (CUAs) to improve through interaction with executable environments. However, existing methods primarily rely on sparse outcome rewards, which provide no sup...

AHEAD is a step‑aware framework that augments reinforcement learning for multi‑turn LLM agents by matching different supervision sources to different step types. The teacher receives environment feedback on all steps and LLM‑generated corrective hints only on error steps, providing finer‑grained guidance than uniform trajectory‑level rewards. Across ALFWorld, WebShop, and Search‑based QA, AHEAD improves task success by 13.3 points on ALFWorld and 11.0 on WebShop at 7B, reaches target success rates faster, and solves tasks within tighter interaction budgets compared to outcome‑only RL and prior self‑distillation baselines.
