SearchArt: Training Long-Horizon Search Agent with Scalable Synthetic and Verified Task

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have enabled search agents to autonomously tackle complex tasks across extended search and reasoning horizons. However, training effective search agents remains challenging due to the lack of scalable and long-horizon tasks, and the difficulty of evaluating and correcting intermediate reasoning and tool-use behaviors. We introduce SearchArt, a scalable framework for training long-horizon search agents through verification-driven task synthesis and a multi-stage post-training pipeline. SearchArt constructs large-scale datasets for complex search-, research- and user-oriented tasks by synthesizing diverse information-seeking QA pairs and corresponding search trajectories from web documents and automatically generated evidence graphs. To ensure the reliability of the synthesized data, we design a verification pipeline that jointly evaluates QA consistency, trajectory quality, and the relevance of retrieved evidence. The verified trajectories are subsequently used in a multi-stage training process comprising supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning-based policy optimization. Search agents trained with SearchArt exhibit adaptive search planning, iterative evidence aggregation, and complex reasoning over extended interaction horizons. Experimental results demonstrate that, with only (Qwen3.5-) 27B parameters, SearchArt scores 74.39 on BrowseComp-ZH, 70.06 on BrowseComp, and 52.55 on Deepresearch-bench, matching or surpassing frontier closed-source agents on both deepsearch and deepresearch benchmarks.

ExRole: From Team Trajectories to Executable Roles in Multi-Agent Language Models

Roles provide an interpretable interface for organizing language-model agents, yet most multi-agent systems treat them as hand-written prompt labels disconnected from learned behavior and parameter updates. We argue that a useful role should instead be an executable control variable: it should summarize behavior predictive of future utility, guide subsequent interaction, and identify the trainable capacity responsible for that behavior. We introduce ExRole, a trajectory-to-role framework that learns future-aware role prototypes from prefix-local team traces, resolves them into readable instructions and token-aligned role markers, and optionally routes shared LoRA rank slots with turn-aligned credit. Across MuSiQue and 2WikiMultiHopQA, ExRole improves over single-agent search by 15.0/14.4 and 13.5/16.1 EM/F1 points, respectively. Against the strongest non-ExRole controls, the corresponding gains remain 11.5/11.6 and 7.7/9.7 points. Across both benchmarks, the controlled results consistently favor trajectory-induced role conditioning over role-free, manual, random, and shuffled alternatives. Role-Agent-Turn interventions further show that the induced roles capture transferable behavioral specialization beyond fixed agent identities or turn positions.
