Environment Evolution for Terminal Agents

Scaling interactive and verifiable environments is critical for training terminal agents. As frontier models become more capable, environments synthesized from scratch become less challenging and thus provide limited learning signals. Recent co-evolution methods iteratively synthesize environments near the model's learnable frontier based on weaknesses exposed during rollouts. However, their dependence on on-policy rollouts limits generalization and the continuous provision of learning signals as the model becomes stronger. In this paper, we propose environment evolution, which incrementally increases environment difficulty off-policy and schedules the evolved environments generation by generation during training to provide continuous learning signals. We derive three evolution directions that influence environment difficulty from the multi-turn learning objective and then implement evolution along these directions through a loop-engineered multi-agent harness. Quantitative rollout experiments with Hy4 preview, Claude Opus 5, and GPT-5.6 Sol show that environment evolution consistently produces more difficult environments. We validate its effectiveness on Qwen3.6-27B and Qwen3.6-35B-A3B through simple long-horizon RL training, improving their performance by 14.4 and 18.0 percentage points on Terminal-Bench 2.1, respectively.

Deep Research Pretraining via Predictive Navigation

Deep research agents are often trained on expensive, environment-grounded tool-use trajectories that require repeated retrieval, document inspection, and report evaluation. We introduce Deep Research Pretraining (DRP), an offline framework that derives predictive navigation supervision from naturally occurring evidence structures. Given a citation-bearing or hyperlinked passage, DRP constructs a proxy research objective, recovers linked evidence and graph-related alternatives, and converts them into search-open-write trajectories. This teaches models what to search for, which documents to inspect, and how to synthesize evidence, without a live retrieval environment or executed policy rollout. We instantiate DRP on scholarly citation graphs (DRP-Paper) and Wikipedia hyperlinks (DRP-Web), continually pretrain separate Qwen3-14B-Base models on 1B tokens, and fine-tune them on controlled fractions of 13K agent trajectories. Across five independently sampled subsets at each low-data budget, both variants consistently outperform matched no-DRP models on DeepResearch Bench. With one quarter of the SFT data, DRP-Web even surpasses a fixed no-DRP full-data checkpoint, with gains transferring to ResearchQA, WebWalkerQA, and SimpleQA. Starting from matched low-data SFT checkpoints, the DRP-Web advantage also persists through subsequent agentic RL. Source-matched and evidence-mismatch controls indicate that these improvements arise from evidence-conditioned navigation rather than domain exposure or agent-format imitation. DRP thus provides a promising complementary approach to trajectory-based agent training.

DocPO: Advancing Document Policy Optimization via Tailored Step-Aware Rewards

Reinforcement learning (RL) for document parsing often relies on reference-based rewards rooted in edit distance (e.g., tree edit distance), yet it remains hard to optimize in the high-accuracy regime because such rewards become weakly discriminative: near-correct outputs receive very similar scores, providing limited learning signal for hard cases. We propose Step-Aware Annealing (SAA), a plug-and-play reward sharpening mechanism that progressively increases reward curvature during training, amplifying subtle quality differences among high-scoring samples while preserving stability in early learning. Built on SAA, we introduce DocPO, a document policy optimization framework with element-specific, reference-based rewards anchored by edit-distance signals: normalized string edit distance (NED) for text, tree edit distance similarity (TEDS) for tables, and a hybrid Rubric+edit reward for formulas. Experiments on OmniDocBench and DocElemHard show that SAA consistently improves GRPO-style RL across document elements over non-annealed rewards, without requiring additional human supervision for reward construction.

MORE: A Multilingual Document Parsing Benchmark and Evaluation

Multilingual documents encapsulate rich regional cultures, scientific discoveries, and historical records. Parsing this content into structured, machine-readable formats is critical for unlocking global knowledge. However, existing benchmarks predominantly focus on high-resource languages like English and Chinese, creating an evaluation blind spot concerning model performance on other languages. While recent Vision-Language Models (VLMs) claim support for hundreds of languages, the lack of ground truth makes it impossible to empirically verify these capabilities. To bridge this gap, we introduce MORE, a large-scale benchmark designed for multilingual document parsing evaluation. MORE distinguishes itself through three key dimensions: (1) Unprecedented Scale: It covers 149 languages, making it the most linguistically diverse benchmark to date; (2) Structural Complexity: Unlike previous works, it extends evaluation beyond plain text to include structural elements such as code blocks, tables, and catalogs; and (3) Data Authenticity: All samples are curated from real-world documents via a model-assisted, human-refined annotation pipeline. We evaluate state-of-the-art models using MORE, establishing new performance baselines for long-tail languages and validating the benchmark's effectiveness in diagnosing model capabilities in realistic, diverse scenarios. The MORE dataset will be available at https://github.com/zimoqingfeng/MORE.

Toward Scalable Terminal Task Synthesis via Skill Graphs

Terminal agents have demonstrated strong potential for autonomous command-line execution, yet their training remains constrained by the scarcity of high-quality and diverse execution trajectories. Existing approaches mitigate this bottleneck by synthesizing large-scale terminal task instances for trajectory sampling. However, they primarily focus on scaling the number of tasks while providing limited control over the diversity of execution trajectories that agents actually experience during training. In this paper, we present SkillSynth, an automated framework for terminal task synthesis built on a scenario-mediated skill graph. SkillSynth first constructs a large-scale skill graph, where scenarios serve as intermediate transition nodes that connect diverse command-line skills. It then samples paths from this graph as abstractions of real-world workflows, and uses a multi-agent harness to instantiate them into executable task instances. By grounding task synthesis in graph-sampled workflow paths, SkillSynth explicitly controls the diversity of minimal execution trajectories required to solve the synthesized tasks. Experiments on Terminal-Bench demonstrate the effectiveness of SkillSynth. Moreover, task instances synthesized by SkillSynth have been adopted to train Hy3 Preview, contributing to its enhanced agentic capabilities in terminal-based settings.

WRAP++: Web discoveRy Amplified Pretraining

Synthetic data rephrasing has emerged as a powerful technique for enhancing knowledge acquisition during large language model (LLM) pretraining. However, existing approaches operate at the single-document level, rewriting individual web pages in isolation. This confines synthesized examples to intra-document knowledge, missing cross-document relationships and leaving facts with limited associative context. We propose WRAP++ (Web discoveRy Amplified Pretraining), which amplifies the associative context of factual knowledge by discovering cross-document relationships from web hyperlinks and synthesizing joint QA over each discovered document pair. Concretely, WRAP++ discovers high-confidence relational motifs including dual-links and co-mentions, and synthesizes QA that requires reasoning across both documents. This produces relational knowledge absent from either source document alone, creating diverse entry points to the same facts. Because the number of valid entity pairs grows combinatorially, this discovery-driven synthesis also amplifies data scale far beyond single-document rewriting. Instantiating WRAP++ on Wikipedia, we amplify ~8.4B tokens of raw text into 80B tokens of cross-document QA data. On SimpleQA, OLMo-based models at both 7B and 32B scales trained with WRAP++ substantially outperform single-document approaches and exhibit sustained scaling gains, underscoring the advantage of cross-document knowledge discovery and amplification.

GeoFM: Enhancing Geometric Reasoning of MLLMs via Synthetic Data Generation through Formal Language

Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have gained significant attention in both academia and industry for their capabilities in handling multi-modal tasks. However, these models face challenges in mathematical geometric reasoning due to the scarcity of high-quality geometric data. To address this issue, synthetic geometric data has become an essential strategy. Current methods for generating synthetic geometric data involve rephrasing or expanding existing problems and utilizing predefined rules and templates to create geometric images and problems. However, these approaches often produce data that lacks diversity or is prone to noise. Additionally, the geometric images synthesized by existing methods tend to exhibit limited variation and deviate significantly from authentic geometric diagrams. To overcome these limitations, we propose GeoFM, a novel method for synthesizing geometric data. GeoFM uses formal languages to explore combinations of conditions within metric space, generating high-fidelity geometric problems that differ from the originals while ensuring correctness through a symbolic engine. Experimental results show that our synthetic data significantly outperforms existing methods. The model trained with our data surpass the proprietary GPT-4o model by 18.7\% on geometry problem-solving tasks in MathVista and by 16.5\% on GeoQA. Additionally, it exceeds the performance of a leading open-source model by 5.7\% on MathVista and by 2.7\% on GeoQA.

Adaptive Deep Reasoning: Triggering Deep Thinking When Needed

Large language models (LLMs) have shown impressive capabilities in handling complex tasks through long-chain reasoning. However, the extensive reasoning steps involved can significantly increase computational costs, posing challenges for real-world deployment. Recent efforts have focused on optimizing reasoning efficiency by shortening the Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning processes through various approaches, such as length-aware prompt engineering, supervised fine-tuning on CoT data with variable lengths, and reinforcement learning with length penalties. Although these methods effectively reduce reasoning length, they still necessitate an initial reasoning phase. More recent approaches have attempted to integrate long-chain and short-chain reasoning abilities into a single model, yet they still rely on manual control to toggle between short and long CoT. In this work, we propose a novel approach that autonomously switches between short and long reasoning chains based on problem complexity. Our method begins with supervised fine-tuning of the base model to equip both long-chain and short-chain reasoning abilities. We then employ reinforcement learning to further balance short and long CoT generation while maintaining accuracy through two key strategies: first, integrating reinforcement learning with a long-short adaptive group-wise reward strategy to assess prompt complexity and provide corresponding rewards; second, implementing a logit-based reasoning mode switching loss to optimize the model's initial token choice, thereby guiding the selection of the reasoning type. Evaluations on mathematical datasets demonstrate that our model can dynamically switch between long-chain and short-chain reasoning modes without substantially sacrificing performance. This advancement enhances the practicality of reasoning in large language models for real-world applications.

Hunyuan-TurboS: Advancing Large Language Models through Mamba-Transformer Synergy and Adaptive Chain-of-Thought

As Large Language Models (LLMs) rapidly advance, we introduce Hunyuan-TurboS, a novel large hybrid Transformer-Mamba Mixture of Experts (MoE) model. It synergistically combines Mamba's long-sequence processing efficiency with Transformer's superior contextual understanding. Hunyuan-TurboS features an adaptive long-short chain-of-thought (CoT) mechanism, dynamically switching between rapid responses for simple queries and deep "thinking" modes for complex problems, optimizing computational resources. Architecturally, this 56B activated (560B total) parameter model employs 128 layers (Mamba2, Attention, FFN) with an innovative AMF/MF block pattern. Faster Mamba2 ensures linear complexity, Grouped-Query Attention minimizes KV cache, and FFNs use an MoE structure. Pre-trained on 16T high-quality tokens, it supports a 256K context length and is the first industry-deployed large-scale Mamba model. Our comprehensive post-training strategy enhances capabilities via Supervised Fine-Tuning (3M instructions), a novel Adaptive Long-short CoT Fusion method, Multi-round Deliberation Learning for iterative improvement, and a two-stage Large-scale Reinforcement Learning process targeting STEM and general instruction-following. Evaluations show strong performance: overall top 7 rank on LMSYS Chatbot Arena with a score of 1356, outperforming leading models like Gemini-2.0-Flash-001 (1352) and o4-mini-2025-04-16 (1345). TurboS also achieves an average of 77.9% across 23 automated benchmarks. Hunyuan-TurboS balances high performance and efficiency, offering substantial capabilities at lower inference costs than many reasoning models, establishing a new paradigm for efficient large-scale pre-trained models.

Are LLMs Effective Backbones for Fine-tuning? An Experimental Investigation of Supervised LLMs on Chinese Short Text Matching

The recent success of Large Language Models (LLMs) has garnered significant attention in both academia and industry. Prior research on LLMs has primarily focused on enhancing or leveraging their generalization capabilities in zero- and few-shot settings. However, there has been limited investigation into effectively fine-tuning LLMs for a specific natural language understanding task in supervised settings. In this study, we conduct an experimental analysis by fine-tuning LLMs for the task of Chinese short text matching. We explore various factors that influence performance when fine-tuning LLMs, including task modeling methods, prompt formats, and output formats.
