My FAULT: Self-Diagnosis as Credit Assignment in Self-Evolving Agentic Reinforcement Learning¶
L1 core mechanism diagnostic. Verified diagnosis, error costs and credit-conserving redistribution execute. The policy and diagnostic model were not trained jointly.

Original paper summary¶
Background and main changes¶
A self-diagnoser proposes error categories and locations. Only claims verified by evidence enter online error pricing. Learned relative costs redistribute terminal credit to steps while conserving its total.

Offline and online results¶
The paper reports ALFWorld signal coverage of 95% versus 41% for GRPO and 72% for GiGPO, and large improvements on ALFWorld and WebShop.
Local reproduction¶
Comparison protocol: Disabled or default mechanism versus enabled operator. Relative percentages are not applicable; this checks invariants, gradients or state transitions, not paper-scale effects.

Scope¶
Verified diagnosis, error costs and conserving redistribution execute. No joint policy/diagnoser training.
