It is argued that OPSD is a sensitive algorithm rather than a generally reliable reasoning-improvement post-training method because it produces ineffective length growth, stable degradation, or behavioral collapse.

Modern LLM post-training composes supervised fine-tuning (SFT), reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR), and on-policy distillation (OPD) into multi-stage pipelines, yet these stages are typically designed and evaluated in isolation. We show that this composition is consequential: a stage that improves th...

Autoregressive Thought Flow is introduced, which models the next continuous thought as a multimodal distribution, and suggests that continuous reasoning is more effective when multiple possible next thoughts remain available rather than being collapsed into a single prediction.

Just-in-Time Memory (JitMem) consistently outperforms no-memory agents as well as heuristic and learned write-time memory methods, improving over the strongest baseline by 16.2, 16.3, and 3.9 absolute success-rate points, respectively.
EvoHarnessBench is introduced, a benchmark for evaluating agents under controlled harness evolution across three axes (tools, skills, and agents), and establishes harness evolution as a distinct challenge for building agents that can keep pace with an evolving harness while preserving previously effective behavior.

Experiments spanning mathematical reasoning, multi-domain STEM, code generation, and multi-turn agentic tasks show that RISE outperforms RLVR-only training and on-policy self-distillation across all settings.

The results suggest that dense credit assignment through distillation can be effective when its likelihood-based scores are empirically validated as meaningful proxies for outcome-relevant credit, when this alignment does not hold.

Procedural Memory Distillation is proposed, which converts crossepisode signals into reusable procedural memory and distills it into the policy's weights during training, yielding a memory-free model at inference.
