The paper introduces AnySearch, a reinforcement‑learning framework that trains a single policy to perform budget‑aware search for large language models under any budget constraint. The training proceeds in two phases: first, the agent learns with explicit budget state injection and structured reasoning prompts under linearly decaying budgets; second, the scaffold is removed and the agent adapts to randomly sampled budgets that match deployment conditions. The reward combines answer accuracy and budget efficiency, with adaptive weighting to emphasize efficiency for high‑accuracy queries and reduce it for low‑accuracy ones. Experiments on seven QA benchmarks demonstrate that AnySearch outperforms baselines across all budget scales, generalizes to unseen constraints, and improves tool productivity without excessive token overhead.
