Physical Agentic AI proposes an architecture that links semantic planning with physical execution for robot crews. Each robot exposes a typed skill library, while a foundation model planner decomposes tasks into phases and assigns robot‑skill pairs. A Robot Orchestrator validates and authorizes one skill at a time, ensuring actions are grounded in robot capabilities, system state, and workflow constraints before actuation.

LADDER is a long‑horizon robot manipulation benchmark that scales from 1 to 10 subgoals within the same environment, covering 145 tasks across three suites and two embodiments. The benchmark evaluates low‑level policies and orchestration methods, showing that while low‑level policies perform well on single‑subgoal tasks, they fail on extended tasks, and orchestration improves performance but is limited by execution errors. Tool‑selection orchestration with GPT‑Policy achieves the highest success rate (~62%) but at significant time and cost.
