arXiv:2606. 27251v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Building persistent embodied agents in unstructured environments demands unified orchestration of heterogeneous tools spanning both cyber (APIs, IoT) and physical (manipulation, navigation) domains, coupled with autonomous recovery from physical failures that inevitably arise over extended operation.
Long-term physical coexistence with intelligent robots requires more than capable robot policies. A persistent robotic assistant must support diverse user-facing interfaces, maintain long-horizon memory of people and preferences, coordinate across robot embodiments, and translate human intent into safe physical execution.

The paper introduces STEP, a State‑Aware Task Estimator and Planner that uses multi‑modal large language models to explicitly estimate system states and predict state transitions during task planning. By forecasting future states alongside actions, STEP reduces hallucinated actions and improves task‑convergent planning. In a simulated robot assembly task, STEP outperforms the state‑of‑the‑art by 32.8% in action executability and 14.8% in final‑state error.
The paper introduces ExecVLA, a framework for vision‑language‑action models that separates goal‑oriented behavior from execution‑specific constraints using a bi‑level action representation and supervised reasoning tokens. It adds explicit objectives to keep goal representations stable while preserving execution constraints, and builds datasets with fine‑grained reasoning annotations in simulation and on a Realman‑75 robot. Experiments on LIBERO and the real robot demonstrate better goal completion and notably more reliable adherence to instruction‑specified execution constraints.
arXiv:2607. 14553v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern industrial environments increasingly run many autonomous subsystems at once - schedulers, energy managers, vehicle fleets - each pursuing its own goals while sharing the same physical resources.
Building persistent embodied agents in unstructured environments demands unified orchestration of heterogeneous tools spanning both cyber (APIs, IoT) and physical (manipulation, navigation) domains, coupled with autonomous recovery from physical failures that inevitably arise over extended operation. Existing systems treat these as separate problems: VLM-based planners lack a unified cyber-physical action space, agent frameworks accumulate unbounded context that degrades temporal coherence, and VLA policies execute open-loop without detecting their own failures.
arXiv:2606. 17511v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robot learning and embodied agents now require simulation to serve as a shared execution substrate linking control, skills, and planning, not only as a renderer, controller testbed, or fixed task environment.
arXiv:2604. 07392v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autonomous agents operating in dynamic environments increasingly demand decision-making systems that are both efficient and interpretable.
arXiv:2607. 17038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses key technical challenges in current large language model (LLM) agent applications, including long-horizon planning, sparse reward attribution, and dynamic environmental interaction, by designing and optimizing an intelligent agent workflow.
The paper introduces iAm.md, a Markdown-based framework that enables robot skill self-assessment through agentic introspection. By mapping open‑vocabulary semantic detections and object segmentations to persistent records, the system anchors autonomous behavior generation in deployment evidence, mitigating grounding failures. Experiments on a simulated TIAGo robot demonstrate that this representation supports both skill self‑assessment and executable task generalization for navigation‑and‑manipulation tasks.
