Physical Agentic AI: An Architecture for Orchestrating a Robot Crew with LLMs

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.

EmbodiedSkills: A Unified Framework for Orchestrating, Training, and Deploying VLA Agents

EmbodiedSkills is a unified framework that treats each skill decision as an execution proposal, checking prerequisites and verifying outcomes during long‑horizon vision‑language‑action tasks. It connects high‑level skill selection, bounded low‑level VLA execution, and post‑action verification through a fixed executable‑skill interface, enabling easy replacement of low‑level policies and recording of structured trajectories for supervision and adaptation. Instantiated with Qwen3‑VL and OpenPI/pi0.5 on RoboTwin 2.0 and LIBERO, the framework achieves high success rates (86.20% and 97.40% respectively) and demonstrates effective memory‑dependent task performance.

HarnessPAI: An Evolving Harness for Physical AI

HarnessPAI introduces a model‑ and embodiment‑agnostic harness framework for Physical AI that treats code as an executable, evolvable interface organizing action primitives. The framework operates on two timescales: within a rollout it executes an open‑loop program, and across rollouts it evolves a closed‑loop program using feedback to refine the program and distill reusable skills. Across diverse robotic platforms, HarnessPAI outperforms pure action models and code‑as‑policy baselines, achieving significant gains on tasks such as LIBERO‑PRO and RoboCasa, and enabling efficient expert‑data collection for further fine‑tuning.
