    Multiscale Policy Optimization improves credit assignment for long-horizon LLM agents

    This paper introduces Multiscale Policy Optimization (MPO), which aligns credit assignment and policy updates at the turn level while refining token-level credit, achieving consistent gains over strong RL baselines on search, tool-use, and automation tasks with 4B and 30B models.
