Behavior cloning for robotic manipulation is highly sensitive to the coverage of its training data, yet collecting diverse successful demonstrations remains costly. We study reinforcement learning (RL) not as a deployable controller, but as a data generator for downstream visuomotor imitation learning. Our key premise is that multiple successful solution modes cover a broader range of successful trajectories than repeatedly collecting a single narrow solution. We introduce DiscoDemo, which trains a privileged latent-conditioned RL generator with a parallel reverse curriculum and a success-gated diversity objective to discover diverse solutions while preserving task success. The trained generator produces multiple successful closed-loop behaviors, which are safety-filtered and exported as a static dataset for downstream imitation learning. Across four manipulation tasks, DiscoDemo produces broader successful-state coverage and improves downstream visuomotor policies in both simulation and the real world. Averaged across tasks, downstream success increases to 62% from 40% for the strongest baseline in simulation, and to 78% from 39% on the real robot, respectively. These results suggest that successful solution diversity improves imitation learning for a pretrained flow-matching VLA and remains complementary to corrective data collection.
