Title:From Correctness to Preference: A Framework for Personalized Agentic Reinforcement Learning
Abstract:Agentic reinforcement learning (Agentic RL) has achieved strong progress in tasks with clear success signals. However, many real-world agent applications require user-conditioned behavior: the same query may call for different planning strategies and tool-use decisions across users. This setting raises key challenges: generic rewards cannot capture heterogeneous user preferences, observed behaviors are entangled with conformity effects, and flat memories cannot support personalized skill retrieval. To this end, we propose a unified personalized Agentic RL framework that embeds personalization into training-time optimization. At its core is \emph{Personalized Anchor Reward-Decoupled Policy Optimization} (\textbf{PARPO}), which decouples generic task-quality rewards from personalized preference rewards and uses user-specific anchors to stabilize learning under heterogeneous reward scales. We further introduce a two-stage preference-disentangled reward model and \emph{Preference-Aligned Skill Evolution Graph Memory} (\textbf{PSGM}) for personalized supervision and preference-aligned skill retrieval. Together, they form a closed loop of preference identification, policy optimization, and structured skill accumulation. Experiments on ETAPP, ETAPP-Hard, and SJAgent show that our framework consistently outperforms strong memory and RL baselines. Code and data are included in the supplementary materials.
