arXiv:2608. 09857v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Advances in advanced artificial intelligence tools have sparked research in robot autonomy, but the development of such systems has largely focused on execution rather than verifying the feasibility actions planning models propose.

arXiv:2607. 05775v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly evaluated on their ability to use tools, plan multi-step tasks, coordinate with other agents, and operate over extended horizons.

The paper introduces Consistent Plan-Act (ConPAct), a method that addresses coordination failures between high-level planners and low-level actors in long-horizon agentic tasks. By prompting both agents to produce structured state assertions and programmatically detecting contradictions, the authors identify a systematic planner-actor state mismatch. ConPAct feeds these detected contradictions back to both agents, fine‑tunes them on consistent interactions, and achieves notable performance gains, such as raising MiniGrid success rates from 38.6% to 54.4% with GPT‑5.6‑sol/terra.

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly evaluated on their ability to use tools, plan multi-step tasks, coordinate with other agents, and operate over extended horizons. Reported benchmark gains often obscure recurring failure modes documented across otherwise unrelated evaluation efforts.
