Reinforcement learning (RL) is used to improve the reasoning abilities of LLMs, while training data span heterogeneous tasks. However, most RL post-training pipelines rely on fixed or manually designed task mixtures, even though task usefulness changes as training progresses. Online curriculum methods often define learnability by update magnitude, ignoring whether the update translates into reward gains, which can misallocate rollout budget toward tasks with large but ineffective updates. We propose PAC, a Progress-Augmented Advantage Curriculum for multi-task RL of LLMs that combines two task-level signals: advantage-derived learnability, which measures the magnitude of the policy update a task can induce, and recent reward gains, which show whether those updates have improved task performance. A Bayesian Thompson Sampling controller uses these signals to allocate rollouts across tasks during GRPO training. We evaluate PAC under two settings: a multi-level reasoning setting and a multi-domain reasoning setting. PAC improves sample efficiency and final performance: it reaches comparable validation scores with fewer rollout steps and achieves higher final averages than random sampling and advantage-based curriculum baselines in both settings. These results show that jointly tracking advantage signals and actual reward gains yields an effective online curriculum for LLM post-training.

Multi-constraint instruction following requires a model to respond to a query under many simultaneously active constraints. Even strong instruction-tuned models still routinely violate some of them. Existing approaches either augment supervision with sequence- or token-level RL rewards from external verifiers or learned graders, or use on-policy distillation (OPD) against a single full-context teacher whose probability mass becomes diluted as more constraints become simultaneously active. We propose CC-OPD (Counterfactual Constraint-Conditioned On-Policy Distillation), which inverts the standard supervision-generation direction in distillation. Rather than enriching the teacher with information beyond what the student sees, CC-OPD ablates each constraint from the teacher’s conditioning in turn, and constructs the per-constraint signal from the resulting per-token probability differentials. The resulting per-token leave-one-out log-likelihood shifts are summed, clipped, and added to the vanilla OPD reward as a token-level shaping term. All shaping terms are obtained from the frozen teacher, without an external verifier during distillation, and the reward equals vanilla OPD wherever the aggregate shift is zero. Across two Qwen model pairs and seven benchmarks, CC-OPD achieves the highest average among all evaluated student-training methods. A 1.5B student trained with CC-OPD surpasses its own 7B RL-trained teacher on the MulDimIF benchmark.
