AgentsMeetRL is an awesome list that summarizes open-source repositories for training LLM Agents using reinforcement learning:
- 🤖 The criteria for identifying an agent project are that it must have at least one of the following: multi-turn interactions or tool use (so TIR projects, Tool-Integrated Reasoning, are considered in this repo).
⚠️ This project is based on code analysis from open-source repositories using LLM coding agents, which may contain unfaithful cases. Although manually reviewed, there may still be omissions. If you find any errors, please don't hesitate to let us know immediately through issues or PRs - we warmly welcome them!- 🚀 We particularly focus on the reinforcement learning frameworks, RL algorithms, rewards, and environments that projects depend on, for everyone's reference on how these excellent open-source projects make their technical choices. See [Click to view technical details] under each table.

- 🤗 Feel free to submit your own projects anytime - we welcome contributions!
- 📚 If you find this repository helpful for your research, please cite it via the "Cite this repository" button on the right sidebar.
Taxonomy:
- Base Framework: General-purpose RL training frameworks for LLM agents (e.g., veRL, OpenRLHF, trl)
- General/MultiTask: Agent systems trained/evaluated across multiple tasks or environments
- Search & RAG: Search-augmented reasoning agents that use retrieval tools to enhance LLM reasoning
- Web & GUI: Agents that interact with web browsers, mobile/desktop GUIs, or operating systems
- Tool-Use: Agents trained to invoke external tools (APIs, code executors, MCP, etc.)
- Code & SWE: Software engineering and code generation agents
- Reasoning: Reasoning agents with tool-integrated or multi-turn reasoning (math, QA, visual)
- Multi-Agent RL: Multi-agent collaboration, negotiation, or credit assignment via RL
- Memory: Agents that learn to manage, retrieve, or evolve memory
- Embodied: Agents operating in embodied/physical simulation environments
- Domain-Specific: RL agents for specialized domains (medical, OS tuning, etc.)
- Reward & Training: Process/outcome reward models and training methodologies for agents
- Safety: RL for agent safety alignment, adversarial red-teaming, and jailbreak defense/attack
- VLM Agent: Vision-language model agents trained with RL for multimodal interaction
- Self-Evolution: Agents that self-evolve via RL feedback loops (
⚠️ definition still evolving in the community) - Environment: Benchmarks, gyms, and sandbox environments for agent training/evaluation
Some Enumeration:
- Enumeration for Reward Type:
- External Verifier: e.g., a compiler or math solver
- Rule-Based: e.g., a LaTeX parser with exact match scoring
- Model-Based: e.g., a trained verifier LLM or reward LLM
- Custom
- 📢 2026-07 Update: Added 13 new repositories from late-Jun–Jul 2026 across 8 categories (Self-Evolution +3 [SEED/OPID/UCOB, the on-policy-distillation-for-agentic-RL line], VLM Agent +2 [VTS/VSeek, long-video search agents], Tool-Use +2 [Tool-RL-Box; plus catch-up of AWorld-RL], Environment +2 [SETA terminal envs, OpenAgent tool-generalization sandbox], Web & GUI +1 [SCALE-CUA], Embodied +1 [REAL], Memory +1 [Supersede], Domain-Specific +1 [FaithMed]). Every entry was verified by opening the repo and confirming real RL-training (or environment) code — papers whose code is not yet released (EvoCUA-1.5, DeepSearch-World, CompactionRL, GUICrafter, VideoSearcher, Xiaomi-GUI-0) were deliberately left out.
- 📢 2026-06 Update: Added 43 new repositories across 11 categories (VLM Agent +8, Search & RAG +7, Environment +6, Reward & Training +4, Base Framework/Tool-Use/Self-Evolution/Embodied +3 each, Web & GUI/Code & SWE/Domain-Specific +2 each). New since the last update: Harness-1, FastContext, OpenWebRL, Polar, AgentJet, HarnessX, APPO, SPADER, DeepRubric, Embodied-R1.5, SIRI; plus catch-up of earlier-2026 misses (Vision-DeepResearch, ARM-Thinker, PyVision-RL, Gen-Searcher, DataMind, Tool-R0, Agent World Model, VisGym, Gym-Anything, ChemCraft, OpAgent, etc.).
- 📢 2026-05 Update: Added 17 new repositories from Apr–May 2026 across 11 categories (notably General/MultiTask +4 [SkillZero/T²PO/SDAR/StraTA, mostly ZJU-REAL & related agentic RL methods], VLM Agent +3 [MTA-Agent/ParaVT/OpenSearch-VL, multimodal deep search & video tool use], Web & GUI +2 [ClawGUI/ToolCUA]). Moved CoEvolve to "Under Review" (code not yet released).
- 📢 2026-04 Update: Added 67 new repositories covering Apr 2025 – Apr 2026 across nearly every category (notably VLM Agent +9, Search & RAG +10, Web & GUI +7, Tool-Use +7). Also reclassified SkyRL (→ General) and SPIRAL (→ Multi-Agent), and updated the VAGEN entry to its NeurIPS'25 upstream repo.
- 📢 2026-03 Update: Restructured taxonomy from 12 to 16 categories (added Multi-Agent RL, Reward & Training, Safety, VLM Agent, Self-Evolution, Domain-Specific; merged GUI into Web & GUI; retired TextGame/Biomedical). Added ~70 new repositories covering Sep 2025 – Mar 2026, growing the total from ~134 to 205.
This list is also packaged as a Claude Code Skill — agents-meet-rl — that turns the corpus into an on-demand assistant for agentic-RL training, evaluation, and experiment design: reward not moving, KL / entropy / length blow-ups, GRPO / PPO / DAPO knobs, retokenization drift, tool-call parse failures, long-horizon credit assignment, LLM-judge inconsistency, benchmark contamination, and framework / benchmark / algorithm selection — each answer anchored to specific papers and repos from this list. Backed by a machine-readable corpus of 368 projects (snapshot 2026-07-23). Once installed, Claude Code auto-invokes it whenever your question matches.
Install as a plugin (recommended):
/plugin marketplace add thinkwee/claude-plugins
/plugin install agents-meet-rl@thinkwee
Or install manually:
git clone https://github.com/thinkwee/AgentsMeetRL
cp -r AgentsMeetRL/skills/agents-meet-rl ~/.claude/skills/Then just ask, e.g. "my GRPO search agent's reward is flat but eval keeps dropping" or "which RL framework should I pick for a multi-turn tool-use agent?" — the skill routes your symptom to fixes grounded in this corpus.

⚠️ Note: The definition of "Self-Evolution" in the context of RL for LLM agents is still evolving and not yet well-established. This category currently collects works whose paper titles explicitly contain "self-evolving" or "self-evolution", where the agent improves itself through RL-driven feedback loops.
