Title: OpenTinker: Separating Concerns in Agentic Reinforcement Learning

Abstract:
arXiv:2601.07376v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce \textsc{OpenTinker}, an open infrastructure for training large language model (LLM) agents with many LoRA-backed policies over shared execution resources. Modern agent workloads mix supervised fine-tuning (SFT), online reinforcement learning (RL), rollout generation, validation, and multi-turn environment interaction. In such workloads, LoRA adapters are not static inference artifacts: they are frequently updated policy states whos
