How is this computed?

round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10) — computed 2026-09-02. Adoption (stars, forks) is never an input.

Microsoft's research repository for rStar2-Agent, a 14B math reasoning model trained with agentic reinforcement learning that autonomously uses coding tools. It includes the GRPO-RoC RL algorithm, scalable RL training infrastructure, and model inference/evaluation code.

Use cases

  • train a small LLM with agentic reinforcement learning for math reasoning
  • reproduce the rStar2-Agent 14B model training pipeline
  • run a math reasoning model that calls Python tools to verify answers
  • implement GRPO with resample-on-correct rollout strategy
  • evaluate small LLMs on competition-level math benchmarks
  • set up high-throughput RL rollout infrastructure on limited GPUs

When to choose

  • you are researching agentic RL for LLM reasoning
  • you want to train or fine-tune small models to use coding tools during reasoning
  • you need a reference implementation of GRPO-RoC for tool-calling agents

When to avoid

  • you need a production-ready chatbot or inference server
  • you lack multi-GPU resources for RL training
  • you want a general-purpose agent framework rather than a research codebase
