LongTraceRL is a new RL training framework for improving long-context reasoning in LLMs, addressing limitations of existing RLVR methods. It constructs challenging training data using multi-hop questions from knowledge graph random walks and tiered distractors derived from search agent trajectories (high-confusability: read but uncited; low-confusability: seen but unopened). A rubric reward provides entity-level process supervision along reasoning chains, applied only to correct responses to prevent reward hacking. Experiments across three LLMs (4B–30B parameters) on five long-context benchmarks show consistent improvements over strong baselines.
