Microsoft Research demonstrates a 4B parameter model matching frontier performance via rubric-based RL finetuning. Treats context acquisition and tool selection as learnable behaviors rather than stuffing tools into the prompt. Solves eager tool loading, error compounding, and sparse reward problems. arXiv 2603.06713
