World Action Agent (WAA) is a multi‑agent framework that lets vision‑language models (VLMs) directly pilot robots by operating within a visual action workspace. The workspace provides automatically selected contact views, editable action rehearsals, and in‑view correction to refine decisions before low‑level execution. WAA learns procedural skills from expert videos and human teaching, and its interaction traces can train smaller VLMs, achieving state‑of‑the‑art success on LIBERO‑Pro and improving out‑of‑domain performance on robosuite and Qwen3.5‑9B.

arXiv:2601. 20334v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Robotic manipulation has increasingly adopted vision-language-action (VLA) models, which achieve strong performance but typically require task-specific demonstrations and fine-tuning, and often generalize poorly under domain shift.

Vision-language-action and world-action models have demonstrated impressive capabilities in robotics, yet generalization to unseen tasks remains challenging. More recently, general-purpose multimodal...
The paper introduces RoomWright, a code‑driven framework that generates 3D indoor scenes for embodied AI by focusing on functional usage rather than just visual layout. It performs usage‑driven object reasoning, treating anchors as task centers to select task‑required objects and their affordances, and compiles interactions into trigger‑condition‑effect rules that update object states. The system also addresses ambiguous object orientation through annotation‑guided usage cues, producing scenes that are executable, editable, and ready for simulation‑based policy learning.

arXiv:2608. 16794v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 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.
