Choosing an agent system means choosing both a language model and the harness through which it acts. We ask whether a strong model, harness, or pairing stays strong when the setting changes. We evaluate 66 configurations: four configurable harnesses (OpenHands, DeepSeek Harness, PI, and openJiuwen) paired with five mod …
General-purpose embodied manipulation hinges on a unified action representation that generalizes across embodiments and scales readily. Yet existing policies rely on embodiment-specific action spaces, making cross-embodiment demonstrations difficult to leverage at scale and limiting transfer to new embodiments and spat …
Textual-gradient methods automate prompt optimization through natural-language feedback, but their iterative updates can be unstable. We identify two sources of this instability: noisy gradients produced from already-correct examples and over-specialization to hard cases that degrades performance on simpler inputs. We …
Enabling robots to adapt to unfamiliar environments as readily as humans remains a moonshot goal of embodied AI. No finite collection of demonstrations can cover every task and situation a robot will encounter, making the ability to learn from context at deployment essential for generalization. Such in-context learning …
