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.

OpenResearcher is a fully open, reproducible pipeline for generating long‑horizon deep research trajectories that interleave search, evidence aggregation, and multi‑step reasoning. It decouples corpus bootstrapping from trajectory synthesis and runs the search‑and‑browse loop offline using three browser primitives over a 15M‑document corpus. Using GPT‑OSS‑120B as a teacher, the pipeline produced over 97K trajectories, enabling a 30B‑A3B model to achieve 54.8% accuracy on BrowseComp‑Plus and providing insights into pipeline design through controlled analysis.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have become increasingly adopted in daily applications, with deep research standing out as a particularly important capability. Unlike traditional question-answering (QA) tasks, deep research report generation lacks definitive ground-truth, making reward design inherently unverifiable and limiting effective reinforcement learning.
arXiv:2606. 09730v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly expected to handle complex, long-horizon real-world tasks whose context demands can grow without bound, yet model context windows remain inherently finite.
