SkillDuet advances AI agent training with co-evolutionary skill loops · 1 source tracked

A new paper introduces SkillDuet, an advancement in AI agent training that builds upon the SEED-API framework. While not a direct successor to Qwen4, it utilizes Qwen3-4B for its experiments and integrates concepts from previous work on agent skills and reinforcement learning. SkillDuet's core innovation lies in its co-evolutionary loop where agent skills and model parameters mutually influence each other, and a novel 'Strength' scoring mechanism that evaluates skills based on their impact on the model's response shifts, prioritizing those that significantly shape the model's behavior for long-term retention.
