让大模型智能体持续探索新策略，避免陷入固定套路。

LLM agents have shown strong performance across a wide range of complex tasks, including interactive environments that require long-horizon decision making. But these agents cannot learn on the fly at test time. Self-evolving agents address this by accumulating memory and reflection across episodes rather than requiring model-weight updates. However, these agents often suffer from exploration collapse: as memory grows, behavior concentrates around familiar high-reward routines, reducing the chance of discovering better alternatives. To address this problem, we propose Autonomous Policy EXploration (APEX), which builds and maintains an explicit strategy space through a strategy map-a directed acyclic graph of milestones with prerequisite dependency edges. In APEX, Fork Discovery expands the map with evidence-grounded unexplored directions, while Policy Selection balances exploration and exploitation during planning. Evaluated on nine Jericho text-adventure games and WebArena, a realistic web interaction benchmark, APEX outperforms all baselines. Extensive ablations validate each component's contribution and demonstrate robustness across diverse settings, demonstrating APEX's effectiveness for sustained exploration in self-evolving agents.
