Autonomous Graphical User Interface (GUI) agents powered by Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) enable digital automation on end-user devices. While scaling both parameters and data has yielded substantial gains, advanced methods still suffer from prohibitive deployment costs on resource-constrained devices. When facing complex in-the-wild scenarios, lightweight GUI agents are bottlenecked by limited capacity and poor task scalability under end-to-end episodic learning, impeding multi-agent systems (MAS) adaptation, while training multiple skill-specific experts remains costly. Can we strike an effective trade-off in this cost–scalability dilemma, enabling lightweight MLLMs to participate in realistic GUI workflows? To address these challenges, we propose LAMO framework, which endows a lightweight MLLM with GUI-specific knowledge and task scalability, allowing multi-role orchestration to expand their capability boundary for GUI automation. LAMO combines role-oriented data synthesis with a two-stage training recipe: (i) supervised fine-tuning with Perplexity-Weighted Cross-Entropy optimization for knowledge distillation and visual perception enhancement, and (ii) reinforcement learning for role-oriented cooperative exploration. Via LAMO, we develop a task-scalable native GUI agent LAMO-3B supporting monolithic execution and MAS-style orchestration. When paired with advanced planners, as a plug-and-play policy executor, LAMO-3B can continuously benefit from planner advances, enabling a higher performance ceiling. Extensive static and online evaluations validate the effectiveness of our designs.

Large reasoning models (LRMs) achieve strong performance on complex tasks by generating intermediate reasoning before the final answer, yet they remain prone to reasoning hallucinations such as subtle arithmetic or constraint-violation errors. Prior hallucination detectors often rely on external verification or local token-level signals, which are limited for LRMs and largely overlook whether the cross-phase information flow from reasoning to answering is structurally robust. We propose Routing Focus Score (RFS), a step-level indicator that measures how strongly cross-step attention routing aligns with semantic proximity derived from hidden-state cosine similarity. We further design RFS-Guard, a lightweight hallucination detection framework based on RFS. Empirically, we observe that higher reasoning–answer RFS is consistently associated with higher hallucination risk, suggesting a routing-collapse failure mode where models might prefer self-confirmation loops and suppress the ability to audit their own generations. Experimental results across multiple domains and models demonstrate the superiority of RFS-Guard for detecting and localizing hallucinations in LRMs without requiring external tools or repeated sampling.
