LLM-based Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) achieve strong performance on complex reasoning tasks by coordinating multiple agents, but at the cost of substantial token consumption. Recent work on automatic topology design, ARG-Designer, has reframed this problem as autoregressive graph generation. However, its training objective provides no explicit incentive for the model to generate sparse and efficient topologies. We address this limitation by introducing a Reward-Guided Autoregressive Graph Generation (RGA-Designer) inspired by Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF). We train a reward model that jointly captures task correctness and structural compactness, and then fine-tune the pretrained graph generator using the reward model as feedback. Our method preserves task accuracy at the level of ARG-Designer while reducing token consumption by an average of 20.5%.
