Long-horizon agentic LLMs are increasingly limited by finite context windows, as extended interaction trajectories can exceed the maximum context length before a task is completed. Context compaction offers a natural solution by summarizing previous interaction states and continuing the rollout under a compressed context, but incorporating compaction into reinforcement learning remains underexplored. We propose CompactionRL, a reinforcement learning strategy to train long-horizon agentic LLMs with context compaction. Our approach jointly optimizes task execution and summary generation with token-level loss normalization and cross-trajectory generalized advantage estimation. This design enables the LLM agents to learn from compacted long-horizon trajectories. We train CompactionRL on top of open models and observe consistent performance gains on agentic coding tasks. CompactionRL enables the open GLM-4.5-Air model (106B-A30B) to achieve Pass@1 scores of 66.8% on SWE-bench Verified and 24.5% on Terminal-Bench 2.0, with absolute gains of 7.0 and 3.1 points, respectively. Built upon GLM-4.7-Flash (30B-A3B), CompactionRL improves Pass@1 by 5.5 and 6.8 points, reaching 56.0% on SWE-bench Verified and 20.2% on Terminal-Bench 2.0, respectively. CompactionRL is thus deployed in the RL pipeline for training the open GLM-5.2 model (750B-A40B).

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies that execute fixed-length action chunks can exhibit multimodal bifurcation: a cross-chunk inconsistency in which adjacent chunks generated from independent Gaussian latents can converge to incompatible trajectory modes, producing abrupt discontinuities at chunk boundaries. Existing remedies either require backpropagation through the policy at each denoising step, rely on rejection sampling, or require retraining, each trading computational cost or task reliability for smoother transitions. We propose SEAM (Smooth Execution of Action-Chunked Motion), a training-free inference-time method for flow matching VLAs. SEAM exploits a simple synchronous-execution insight: after the robot consumes the executed prefix, the previous chunk's unexecuted tail is already available as an analytic consistency reference. Its core mechanism, Velocity-guided Loss Steering (VLS), derives a time-dependent target from this tail and applies a closed-form correction after each Euler step without backpropagating through the policy network. On LIBERO-10 with pi_0.5, SEAM reduces boundary jerk by 28%, reduces chunk transition discontinuity by 27%, preserves baseline-level task success, and keeps denoising-loop cost near the unguided baseline.
