About AReaL

AReaL: A Large-Scale Asynchronous Reinforcement Learning System WeChat (微信) Group | AReaL is a reinforcement learning (RL) infrastructure designed to bridge foundation model training with modern agent-based applications. It was originally developed by researchers and engineers from Tsinghua IIIS and the AReaL Team at Ant Group. Built on a fully asynchronous RL training paradigm, AReaL is optimized for efficiency and scalability, making it particularly well-suited for training large-scale reasoning and agentic models. AReaL’s mission is to make building AI agents accessible, efficient, and cost-effective for a broad community of developers and researchers. Like

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
