Agentic RSR: Real-to-Sim-to-Real through Scene Reconstruction and Execution-Grounded Robot Policies

Abstract

A simulation of a real robot workspace must preserve task-relevant interactions, while policies developed in it must operate on observations available to the real robot. Yet scene reconstruction and policy development are often treated separately. We present Agentic Real-to-Sim-to-Real (Agentic RSR), a framework that links scene reconstruction, policy development, and real-robot execution through the same manipulation task. Given a workspace video, a task description, and a known robot model, an agent recovers metric scale, iteratively refines the scene using visual feedback, and checks task-relevant interactions in MuJoCo. A coding agent then develops an executable policy, progressing from privileged object poses to visual observations and randomized simulation. The policy can interleave multiple observations and actions within one invocation, while the agent uses execution feedback to continue, retry, or revise its approach. A shared task-level interface carries the policy and accumulated experience to the real robot, where fresh observations and safety checks guide execution. Across 18 reconstructed scenes involving two robots, the mean four-view Depth MAE against reference depth estimates is 0.1057 m, the mean Lab $ΔE_{76}$ is 11.04, and the mean grayscale SSIM is 0.6990. In real-robot experiments, the aggregate task success rate reaches 80% of the simulation task success rate, indicating substantial retention of simulated performance on hardware. Code and reconstructed scene data will be made publicly available.

RoboFAC: A Comprehensive Framework for Robotic Failure Analysis and Correction

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently advanced robotic manipulation by translating natural-language instructions and visual observations into control actions. However, existing VLAs are primarily trained on successful expert demonstrations and lack structured supervision for failure diagnosis and recovery, limiting robustness in open-world scenarios. To address this limitation, we propose the Robotic Failure Analysis and Correction (RoboFAC) framework. We construct a large-scale failure-centric dataset comprising 9,440 erroneous manipulation trajectories and 78,623 QA pairs across 53 scenes in both simulation and real-world environments, with systematically categorized failure types. Leveraging this dataset, we develop a lightweight multimodal model specialized for task understanding, failure analysis, and failure correction, enabling efficient local deployment while remaining competitive with large proprietary models. Experimental results demonstrate that RoboFAC achieves a 34.1% higher failure analysis accuracy compared to GPT-4o. Furthermore, we integrated RoboFAC as an external supervisor in a real-world VLA control pipeline, yielding a 29.1% relative improvement across four tasks while significantly reducing latency relative to GPT-4o. These results demonstrate that RoboFAC enables systematic failure diagnosis and recovery, significantly enhancing VLA recovery capabilities. Our model and dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/MINT-SJTU/RoboFAC.

Robotic Ultra-Long-Horizon Manipulation Skills via Human-guided Lifelong Code Generation

Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural-language instructions for robotic manipulation into executable code, but ambiguity, noisy generations, and limited context windows make ultra-long-horizon tasks unreliable. Closed-loop approaches that rely only on LLM feedback also struggle because LLMs have limited robotic reasoning, even when task errors are obvious to humans. Feedback is often stored in representations that generalize poorly to unseen tasks and can cause catastrophic forgetting as new corrections accumulate. We propose LYRA, a human-guided lifelong skill learning and code generation framework that distills human feedback into modular, reusable skills and incrementally extends their functionality across successive interactions while preserving previously learned behavior. External memory stores learned skills and execution examples; retrieval-augmented generation selects relevant knowledge, while user hints guide reuse when retrieval is insufficient, supporting ultra-long-horizon execution. Experiments on Ravens, Franka Kitchen, LIBERO-long, MetaWorld, and real-world tasks show a 0.93 success rate, up to 27\% higher than baselines, and a 42\% improvement in correction efficiency. LYRA also robustly solves ``build a house'', which requires planning over 20 primitives.

Agentic Scene Policies

Designing or learning robot policies that generalize zero-shot across a range of language instructions and objects is a core problem in robotics. Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) learn such policies end-to-end by repurposing existing Vision-Language Models (VLMs), but generalization to new instructions and objects remains challenging. An alternative is to implement a modular policy by leveraging an explicit VLM-based 3D scene representation and motion planning. While modular policies show strong zero-shot potential, they typically retrieve objects based on semantics without explicit spatial reasoning, severely restricting their overall grounding capabilities. They also interact with objects using basic grasping and navigation skills. In this work, we address these limitations by unifying grounding capabilities and robot skills in a single agentic action space through a scene-agent tool interface. By leveraging part-level affordances, our skills generalize across diverse objects and enable zero-shot interactions such as unplugging chargers and opening drawers. We name the resulting framework Agentic Scene Policies (ASP). Through extensive real-world experiments, we show how ASP consistently outperforms leading VLAs in the zero-shot setting. We also demonstrate the extensibility of our framework by introducing a mobile version of ASP to tackle room-level queries.
