To keep long interaction contexts tractable, stepwise group-relative training for multi-turn LLM agents materializes each source trajectory into multiple response rows and valid tokens. This expansion creates an outer-accounting problem distinct from within-trajectory credit assignment: row-based outcome statistics can count one episode outcome multiple times, while token-level reduction can assign unequal aggregate objective mass across trajectories.

We term these effects outcome-statistics multiplicity and objective-mass imbalance. We introduce Outcome-Mass Alignment (OMA), a two-component method that makes both accounting choices explicit.

Outcome Alignment computes outcome statistics over unique source trajectories, while Mass Alignment controls aggregate objective mass after within-trajectory aggregation of optimizer-native token objectives. Neither redesigns the base optimizer's credit assignment, importance ratios, or clipping.

Across matched ALFWorld GRPO comparisons at two model scales, where failed trajectories typically expand much more than successful ones, OMA improves matched-horizon endpoint success by 7.0-9.4 percentage points. Ordinary WebShop exhibits weak or reversed expansion-outcome coupling and correspondingly mixed effects, whereas in a success-oriented WebShop setting, WebShop-SOL, OMA improves success nAUC from 0.399 to 0.511.

Component ablations and GiGPO and GSPO comparisons further support component separability and cross-optimizer compatibility. These results show that trajectory expansion always defines an implicit weighting rule, but its practical effect depends on how expansion couples to outcomes and optimizer-native updates.
