While token-level entropy is commonly recognized as effective for credit assignment in text-only reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR), it remains unclear whether this mechanism still holds in visual reasoning. Our controlled study shows that this mechanism collapses in visual reasoning due to the omission of vision-sensitive tokens with naturally low entropy. Although existing multimodal RL methods increasingly acknowledge the importance of visual perception, they struggle to satisfy the inherent demand for interleaving precise perceptual grounding with semantic reasoning, either lacking systematic visual measurements or overlooking that token entropy primarily drives semantic exploration. To address this, we introduce VEPO (Vision-Entropy token-selection for Policy Optimization), an effective RL framework explicitly integrating visual sensitivity with token entropy via a principled multiplicative coupling, where VEPO redirects gradient credit toward tokens which are simultaneously visually grounded and highly informative. Extensive experiments demonstrate VEPO’s leading performance, consistently outperforming the strongest RL baseline at 7B-scale and 3B-scale. Ablations further substantiate the soundness of our method.

Multi-agent systems (MAS) powered by Large Language Models (LLMs) have been demonstrated to push the boundaries of LLM capabilities, yet they often incur significant costs and face challenges in dynamic LLM selection. Current LLM routing methods effectively reduce overhead in single-agent scenarios by customizing LLM selection for each query, but they overlook the critical decisions regarding collaboration modes and agent roles in MAS. In response to this challenge, we first introduce the problem of Multi-Agent System Routing (MASR), which integrates all components of MAS into a unified routing framework. Toward this goal, we propose MasRouter, the first high-performing, cost-effective, and inductive MASR solution. MasRouter employs collaboration mode determination, role allocation, and LLM routing through a cascaded controller network, progressively constructing a MAS that balances effectiveness and efficiency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MasRouter is (1) high-performing, achieving a 1.8 improvement over the state-of-the-art method on MBPP; (2) economical, reducing overhead by up to 52.07 compared to SOTA methods on HumanEval; and (3) plug-and-play, seamlessly integrating with mainstream MAS frameworks, reducing overhead by 17.21 via customized routing.
