FluxVLA Engine: A One-Stop VLA Engineering Platform for Embodied Intelligence
FluxVLA Engine is an open, configuration‑driven platform that unifies the fragmented components of embodied policy development—datasets, visual‑language and world models, action heads, learning methods, distributed training, simulation evaluation, inference, and robot interfaces—into a reproducible data‑to‑deployment workflow. It adds features such as compositional dual‑arm simulation, scalable automatic data generation, human‑in‑the‑loop rollout and correction, Real‑Time Chunking for fast inference, and lightweight remote GPU serving, thereby linking offline learning, simulation validation, online correction, and real‑robot execution under shared, auditable contracts. The engine aims to eliminate engineering bottlenecks that currently separate promising embodied‑learning algorithms from reliable, reproducible deployment.

Self-Evolving Embodied Agents via Skill-Harness Evolution
The paper introduces SHAPER, a self‑evolving framework that enables embodied agents to adapt to new environments without retraining the underlying foundation model. SHAPER keeps model parameters frozen and instead evolves reusable skills and a context‑code harness through rollouts in the target environment, allowing the same model to act as both planner and optimizer. Experiments on VLABench and ESI‑Bench demonstrate that this skill‑and‑harness optimization outperforms pure execution, supervised fine‑tuning, and test‑time scaling baselines, showing that self‑evolving adaptation is viable when model training is costly or impractical.
