PATS: Policy-Aware Training Scaffolding for Agentic Reinforcement Learning
In long-horizon LLM agent reinforcement learning, weak policies often repeat similar failures, producing uninformative rollout trajectories and limiting effective policy optimization. Existing skill-centric methods improve exploration by optimizing, filtering, or internalizing reusable skills. However, they remain centered on the skills themselves rather than being designed as adaptive training-time support for the evolving policy. To address this, we propose a policy-centric training paradigm that reframes skills as a dynamic training scaffold. Our framework, PATS, converts rollout groups from the latest policy into evidence cards and uses task-specific evaluation to adjust the context used in subsequent rollouts. Concrete guidance helps weak policies to complete challenging tasks. As policy improves, redundant context is revised or removed to reduce reliance on explicit guidance while preserving useful rollout variation. The policy is optimized with environmental rewards using standard RLVR, and the training scaffold is discarded at deployment. Across ALFWorld, WebShop, and seven search-augmented QA benchmarks, PATS achieves performance competitive with SOTA baselines while using 25%-50% fewer tokens.
