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.

The paper introduces EvoSkill-GUI, a training‑free framework that enables GUI agents to evolve their skills during deployment. Each skill is packaged with metadata, executable plans, and recovery rules, and the system follows a reflect‑revise‑reuse loop where the agent instantly revises skills based on execution feedback. Experiments on MobileWorld, AndroidWorld, and OSWorld show consistent performance gains up to +16.2% without any additional training.
