The paper introduces the Agentic Compositional Generalization hypothesis, suggesting that reinforcement learning (RL) primarily refines high‑level decision‑making behaviors that orchestrate pre‑trained low‑level skills, rather than teaching new domain‑specific skills from scratch. It proposes River, a training recipe that enhances reward quality by filtering low‑quality synthetic environments and adding process‑level behavior regularization. Using River, RL‑trained agents outperform other open‑source 8B models on four terminal‑agent benchmarks, achieving significant gains with fewer than 30% of the training environments.

AgentFly is an agentic reinforcement learning framework that introduces a unified resource layer to manage heterogeneous environments—such as sandboxes, model services, and external APIs—through a single scheduling engine. The framework is organized into four layers: an agent layer that abstracts agents, tools, and rewards; a rollout layer that composes agent loops and computes rewards; a context layer that organizes rollouts and injects contextual information; and a low‑level resource layer that handles resource management. AgentFly offers prebuilt tools and environments, demonstrates successful agent training across multiple tasks and models, and provides the first controlled cross‑framework throughput comparison against other agentic RL frameworks.

arXiv:2608. 10538v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent skills represent a standardized format for packaging procedural knowledge and domain expertise, serving within agent harness systems as an essential mechanism to continually constrain a language model's behavior space for repeatable, high-quality task execution.
