Language and vision-language models generate plausible embodied plans but do not guarantee executability, as their outputs can violate environment dynamics or act on incorrectly grounded entities. We present a neurosymbolic agent that factors long-horizon household tasks into task-directed visual exploration and constrained symbolic planning.
Embodied planning increasingly relies on vision-language models (VLMs) to translate instructions and visual observations into executable action sequences. However, fluent plans are not always executab...
The paper introduces NavMCP, a scaffolding framework that couples vision‑language models (VLMs) with navigation foundation models (NFMs) to enable long‑horizon physical‑world agents. NavMCP orchestrates three communication channels—intent, observation, and memory—to allow the VLM to decide what evidence to seek and the NFM to ground semantic sub‑goals into closed‑loop navigation, without retraining either model. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art results on several embodied question‑answering benchmarks and significantly outperforms episodic interfaces on the Unitree Go2 robot as task horizons lengthen.

The paper introduces GTA‑VLA, an interactive Vision‑Language‑Action framework that lets users guide robot policies with explicit visual cues such as affordance points, boxes, and traces. Unlike traditional direct sense‑to‑act models, GTA‑VLA incorporates a spatial‑visual Chain‑of‑Thought that blends human guidance with internal task planning, and couples this reasoning module with a lightweight reactive action head for efficient execution. Experiments on the SimplerEnv WidowX benchmark show a state‑of‑the‑art 81.2 % success rate, and the framework significantly improves task success under out‑of‑domain visual shifts and spatial ambiguities, demonstrating the benefit of interactive reasoning for failure recovery in embodied control.
