Post-training large language models often require optimizing multiple objectives simultaneously, motivating multi-reward reinforcement learning (RL) methods that model different objectives as separate reward signals. Existing methods like Group reward-Decoupled Policy Optimization (GDPO) compute group-normalized advantages separately for each reward dimension and then aggregate them for policy updates. However, this aggregation process can cause cross-reward advantage conflict: the same rollout may have positive advantages on some reward dimensions but negative advantages on others, causing positive and negative signals to cancel each other during aggregation. To address this issue, we propose GD2PO, short for Group-Dynamic Reward-Decoupled Policy Optimization, a conflict-aware multi-reward policy optimization method. Before advantage aggregation, GD2PO uses conflict-aware criteria to identify and filter rollouts with severe reward-wise disagreement, reducing the influence of unreliable update signals. It further introduces query-level reweighting to dynamically adjust the update strength of each query according to its overall reward consensus. Experiments on tool calling and helpfulness-safety alignment show that GD2PO outperforms existing methods. Our code is available at https://github.com/Qwen-Applications/GD2PO.

Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on domain-specific skills, yet manually authoring such skills does not scale, and skills generated purely from parametric knowledge often miss critical operational pitfalls. We introduce Trace2Skill, a framework that consolidates broad execution trajectories in parallel into a unified skill directory through inductive reasoning over agent experience. Trace2Skill supports both deepening existing human-written skills and creating useful skills from weak LLM-generated drafts. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of Trace2Skill across diverse domains, including office workflows, math reasoning, and vision QA. Importantly, the evolved skills are not merely memorized artifacts of the trajectories used to create them: they often transfer across model scales, across model families, and to out-of-distribution settings. For example, skills evolved from Qwen3.5-35B trajectories improve a Qwen3.5-122B agent by up to 57.65 percentage points on WikiTableQuestions. Further analyses show that Trace2Skill outperforms sequential skill editing and ReasoningBank-style retrieval memories, compresses recurring failures and workarounds into standard operating procedures (SoPs), and yields portable skills that can be reused without parameter updates or test-time retrieval.

Generative query suggestion aims to enhance user engagement by anticipating user intents and recommending relevant follow-up queries. A central challenge is to generate slates whose individual queries are useful while the slate covers distinct intents. We propose an Intent-Driven Query Suggestion Framework with dual-stage optimization. First, intent-aware diversity modeling constructs intent-aligned supervised fine-tuning (SFT) data and uses an Intent-Aware Diversity Reward to optimize intent coverage. Second, query-level credit assignment routes individual quality signals to the corresponding query tokens while sharing a slate-level diversity signal across the slate. Experiments on a large-scale production dataset, including online A/B testing and offline evaluation, show improvements in click-through rate, query quality, and intent coverage.

Over-correction is a critical issue for large language models (LLMs) to address Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) task, esp. for Chinese. This paper proposes a Chain-of-Task (CoTask) framework to reduce over-correction. The CoTask framework is applied as multi-task instruction tuning of LLMs by decomposing the process of grammatical error analysis to design auxiliary tasks and adjusting the types and combinations of training tasks. A supervised fine-tuning (SFT) strategy is also presented to enhance the performance of LLMs, together with an algorithm for automatic dataset annotation to avoid additional manual costs. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves new state-of-the-art results on both FCGEC (in-domain) and NaCGEC (out-of-domain) test sets.
