Miles v0.1: Production-Level Post-Training

We present Miles v0.1, a full-stack, production-ready system for frontier post-training. Building upon the clean design of slime, Miles designs each stage of the reinforcement-learning (RL) training loop around a single principle: components should be verified, clean, and customizable. With accuracy, efficiency, reliability, and scalability as first-class goals, Miles aims to make frontier-scale RL accessible to researchers and enterprises alike. This report walks through the system end to end: rollout engines built on SGLang, a trainer with a choice of two backends (NVIDIA Megatron-LM and PyTorch FSDP), and three weight-synchronization transports for different deployment topologies. Beyond full-parameter RL, Miles also supports LoRA RL, on-policy distillation, supervised fine-tuning, and true-on-policy rollout-training alignment, and extends the same architecture to diffusion models. We close with an end-to-end case study: fully asynchronous agentic RL on a GLM-5.2 744B-A40B model over terminal-use coding tasks, running on 64 NVIDIA GB300 GPUs with a median step time of 263 seconds over the first 30 measured steps. Miles is open-sourced at https://github.com/radixark/miles, with the project website at https://miles.radixark.com.

xDailyBench: Benchmarking LLMs on Professional Consultation for Real-Life Problems

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for everyday assistance, yet existing benchmarks only partially reflect the requests users naturally make in practice. Real-world requests are often open-ended, casually specified, and context-dependent, requiring models not only to follow explicit instructions but also to infer unstated needs from user background and situational context. We introduce xDailyBench, a benchmark of 248 carefully curated tasks spanning 51 scenarios across personal life, white-collar work, learning and research, and cross-domain activities. The tasks are grounded in requests that users have actually completed or genuinely intended to accomplish with AI, and are evaluated with fine-grained binary rubrics covering both explicit and implicit requirements. We evaluate 11 frontier models under standardized agentic settings. The best models achieve a task-level score of 75.6\%, while all models perform substantially worse on implicit than explicit requirements, with gaps no less than 9 percentage points. These results reveal implicit requirement inference as a persistent bottleneck for reliably satisfying real-world everyday user needs.

Calibration is the Bottleneck: An Action-Class Diagnostic of Multi-Turn Tool-Calling

Multi-turn tool calling is a core evaluation scenario for large language model (LLM) agents. On public tool-calling benchmarks, open-weight models now approach or even surpass closed-source frontier models in aggregate accuracy. However, this metric averages over many different multi-turn situations and obscures whether progress is balanced across them. We propose an action-class-oriented diagnostic framework that decomposes multi-turn failures into two orthogonal modes: action-class miscalibration and action-execution failure. The framework operates over a four-class action space (TOOL_CALL/ASK/REFUSE/CONFIRM) and introduces a self-revealing upper bound Acc<= GAR (Gold Action Recall); the two modes show up as bound violation (Acc>GAR, exposing state-grader masking of miscalibration) and large bound slack (GAR>>Acc, localizing execution failure within TOOL_CALL). We validate it on a panel of tool-calling models across multiple multi-turn benchmarks. Across our panel, the diagnostic reveals action-class miscalibration as a substantial failure mode the state grader cannot see. This gap inflates standing for heavily tool-trained families, which our diagnostic separates from families with context-appropriate action choice. Calibration is reshapable through context-only perturbations, but the reshape is heterogeneous: a single perturbation moves accuracy in opposite directions across families (up to +11.5 vs -21.0 pp on the same scenario), and its effect further depends on the perturbation mechanism. We argue that multi-turn tool-calling evaluations should supplement aggregate accuracy with action-class diagnostics that expose what the model actually does in each scenario.
