PsychAgent: An Experience-Driven Lifelong Learning Agent for Self-Evolving Psychological Counselor
Existing methods for AI psychological counselors predominantly rely on supervised fine-tuning using static dialogue datasets. However, this contrasts with human experts, who continuously refine their proficiency through clinical practice and accumulated experience. To bridge this gap, we propose an Experience-Driven Lifelong Learning Agent (\texttt{PsychAgent}) for psychological counseling. First, we establish a Memory-Augmented Planning Engine tailored for longitudinal multi-session interactions, which ensures therapeutic continuity through persistent memory and strategic planning. Second, to support self-evolution, we design a Skill Evolution Engine that extracts new practice-grounded skills from historical counseling trajectories. Finally, we introduce a Reinforced Internalization Engine that integrates the evolved skills into the model via rejection fine-tuning, aiming to improve performance across diverse scenarios. Comparative analysis shows that our approach achieves higher scores than strong general LLMs (e.g., GPT-5.4, Gemini-3) and domain-specific baselines across all reported evaluation dimensions. These results suggest that lifelong learning can improve the consistency and overall quality of multi-session counseling responses.
AutoSkill: Experience-Driven Lifelong Learning via Skill Self-Evolution
In practical LLM applications, users repeatedly express stable preferences and requirements, such as reducing hallucinations, following institutional writing conventions, or avoiding overly technical wording, yet such interaction experience is seldom consolidated into reusable knowledge. Consequently, LLM agents often fail to accumulate personalized capabilities across sessions. We present AutoSkill, an experience-driven lifelong learning framework that enables LLM agents to automatically derive, maintain, and reuse skills from dialogue and interaction traces. AutoSkill abstracts skills from user experience, supports their continual self-evolution, and dynamically injects relevant skills into future requests without retraining the underlying model. Designed as a model-agnostic plugin layer, it is compatible with existing LLMs and introduces a standardized skill representation for sharing and transfer across agents, users, and tasks. In this way, AutoSkill turns ephemeral interaction experience into explicit, reusable, and composable capabilities. This paper describes the motivation, architecture, skill lifecycle, and implementation of AutoSkill, and positions it with respect to prior work on memory, retrieval, personalization, and agentic systems. AutoSkill highlights a practical and scalable path toward lifelong personalized agents and personal digital surrogates.
