Large language model agents trained with reinforcement learning (RL) often learn brittle, task-specific shortcuts. We hypothesize that agents generalize better when their successful trajectories are structurally compressible, decomposed into a small set of reusable abstract patterns. To formalize this, we introduce ReuseRL, which grounds agentic RL in the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle. ReuseRL extracts a shared skill dictionary from successful trajectories and augments the RL objective with a segmentation cost, explicitly penalizing idiosyncratic behaviors that encode poorly. We prove a PAC-Bayes generalization bound for this compression penalty. Across ALFWorld, TextWorld-Cooking, and Countdown-Stepwise, ReuseRL improves in- and out-of-distribution success over vanilla GRPO and strong round-length baselines.
