Crab bridges the agent-OS semantic gap with an eBPF inspector, turn-aligned coordinator, and host engine to deliver 100% recovery correctness while cutting checkpoint traffic up to 87% and adding under 2% overhead.
This survey introduces the Generate-Filter-Control-Replay (GFCR) taxonomy to structure rollout pipelines for RL-based post-training of reasoning LLMs.
IGRPO allocates multi-turn LLM agent rollout budget proportional to intermediate-state information gain, inducing an exponentially tilted teacher distribution for policy optimization.
Mastermind's dual-loop planner learns transferable strategies via SFT and milestone GRPO, raising GPT-5.5 executor pass rate on 200 held-out CyberGym tasks from 60% to 84.5%.
ReSum's contrastive RL branching on self-summarization points improves LLM math reasoning accuracy by about 4% and shortens rollouts by about 18.6% across tested backbones.
TRACE is a rollout budget allocation framework that models ReAct turns as tree nodes and uses a predictor to allocate samples to informative prefixes, yielding a 2.8-point accuracy gain on Multi-Hop QA at equal cost.
PBSD reweights RL trajectory advantages with Bayesian evidence scores from privileged answer-conditioned likelihoods, improving credit assignment in long-horizon search agents.
ECPO improves GiGPO by shrinking low-count action advantages and suppressing noisy anchor states, yielding +5.2/+7.3 success gains on ALFWorld/WebShop with Qwen2.5-1.5B models at negligible extra cost.
GDCR assigns step-level rewards via distance to the answer node in a training-time ER graph and SAPO combines these with trajectory advantages for credit assignment in agentic search.
A two-stage probe (hidden-state estimate plus attention-based correction) yields per-step GRPO rewards that survive prefix contamination and beat external-judge and tree-search rewards in the reported benchmarks.
Shepherd provides a reversible execution trace substrate for LLM agents that enables meta-agents to inspect and transform runs, yielding reported gains on coding and terminal benchmarks via supervision, counterfactual repair, and RL credit assignment.
A²TGPO improves RL policy optimization for multi-turn agentic LLMs by normalizing information gain within same-depth turn groups, rescaling cumulative advantages by sqrt of term count, and modulating clipping ranges per turn's normalized IG.
A learned orchestration policy for LLM agents that jointly optimizes task decomposition and selective routing to (model, primitive) pairs, delivering 77% macro pass@1 at 10x lower cost than strong baselines across 13 benchmarks.
TreeMem assigns credit to agents in multi-agent memory systems by expanding outputs into a tree and using Monte Carlo averaging of final rewards to optimize each agent's policy.
Tree Training serializes tree trajectories via DFS and uses redundancy-free partitioning to compute weighted per-token losses exactly once per token, achieving up to 6.2x training speedup on dense and MoE models.
APPO improves LLM agent training by branching at tokens selected for both uncertainty and future impact, then scaling credit for consequential reasoning procedures.
SIRI trains LLM agents to discover, validate, and internalize reusable skills from their own rollouts without external generators or inference-time skill banks, yielding gains on ALFWorld and WebShop.
Centralized-critic actor-critic training (CoLLM-CC) improves sample efficiency and stability over Monte-Carlo multi-agent RL for training decentralized LLM collaboration.
