The paper introduces a method for creating query‑specific rubrics for DeepResearch‑style long‑form report generation by training rubric generators with reinforcement learning. It builds a dataset of queries annotated with human preferences, then uses a hybrid reward that includes preference consistency, format validity, and LLM‑based rubric evaluation. The learned rubrics outperform generic or manually constructed alternatives in distinguishing preferred reports and, when used as rewards, improve performance of both single‑agent and multi‑agent DeepResearch systems.
