EvoPolicyGym benchmark evaluates autonomous policy evolution by LLM agents in RL environments

A new arXiv preprint introduces EvoPolicyGym, a benchmark for evaluating how LLM-based agents iteratively improve executable policies in compact interactive RL environments under a fixed interaction budget. The benchmark provides trajectory-level diagnostics beyond aggregate scores, distinguishing how agents allocate budget and convert feedback into parametric tuning. GPT-5.5 achieves the strongest aggregate rank score and top-two performance across all 16 environments. The work targets a gap in agent evaluation where iterative policy refinement is conflated with open-ended software engineering progress.
