Search agents have emerged as a pivotal paradigm for solving open-ended, knowledge-intensive reasoning tasks. However, training these agents via Reinforcement Learning (RL) faces a critical dilemma: interacting with live commercial Web APIs is prohibitively expensive, while relying on static data...

Reinforcement Learning (RL) with sparse outcome rewards suffers from inefficient credit assignment in complex LLM reasoning tasks. While utilizing stronger LLMs as teachers to derive dense token-level supervision offers a cost-effective alternative to proprietary reward models, it relies on the f...
