You Don't Need To Stay in The Loop: An Agentic Robotics Loop for Robot-Policy Improvement

Teach and Grow: An Agent-Centered Architecture for General Robot Learning

End-to-end vision-language-action (VLA) and world-action models offer an elegant route to general-purpose robotics, but their reliability is bounded by validated physical coverage. When an unfamiliar object, sensor, embodiment, or contact falls outside that coverage and no validated fallback exists, correcting the failure requires new robot data, a policy update, and regression testing. This recurring burden is the retraining tax. Unlike text, embodied data must often be created by operating machines. We present Teach-and-Grow Learning (TGL), an agent-centered architecture for general robot learning. In its general form, a multimodal agent turns a few successful demonstrations into reusable Skill Blocks: closed-loop behaviors for meaningful subgoals. In a new scene, the agent grounds and composes these blocks, selects learned or geometric tools, observes the physical outcome, and revises the route when execution departs from intent. A Skill Library stores executable behavior, while structured Experience Memory carries forward success, failure, and repair. New tasks are acquired without task-specific policy retraining. Our LIBERO evaluation attains state-of-the-art performance; controlled studies expose skill induction, persistent reuse, and agent-directed adaptation. Finally, we propose the Teach-and-Grow scaling-law hypothesis: if X denotes effective reusable experience, future-task error and teaching demand should approach irreducible floors as power laws in X. The architecture therefore treats deployment as a period of continued learning, in which one task can make the next easier.

Revisiting the"Push-T"Robot Manipulation Task with Agentic Robotics

This short paper revisits the Push-T task in the context of emerging advances in Agentic Robotics where an LLM coding agent -- Claude Code with Fable 5 -- is prompted to create an algorithmic solution that does not require any demonstration data.

VLCP: Vision Language Control Policy Closed-Loop Code Replanning for Robot Manipulation

VLCP closes the loop where the failure actually lives, on the control code, within a single episode, and keeps the VLM frozen, which is a training-free policy with a tenfold gap between pooled success and confidence intervals in every scene family.

ETA: A New Agentic Paradigm for Embodied Tasks

The Embodied Task Agent is introduced, a new paradigm for extending digital agents into the physical world, and OpenETA is released as its open-source implementation, which provides replaceable Planners, composable Tools and Skills, auditable memory, replayable trajectories, and common interfaces for simulation and real robots.
