It is suggested that the benefit of the agentic framework lies primarily in interaction quality rather than conversational efficiency, and the agentic architecture displayed robustness by recovering from non-normative inputs while maintaining strict goal alignment.
The World-Cognition Model is presented, a human-centered embodied agent built on the SLAK architecture (Sensing, Logic, Action, and Knowledge) and an asynchronous runtime and introduces a human-in-the-loop teaching mode that enables users to interactively teach the robot difficult or long-horizon 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.

AgentForge is presented, an immersive learning system in which novices take on one of four software-engineering roles: Task Planner, Patch Author, Code Reviewer, or Test Runner, within a multi-agent code-repair workflow, which clarifies role-specific responsibilities, makes agent coordination and intermediate artifacts visible, and encourages novices to monitor and evaluate their decisions.
Recent advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), are driving robotic architectures toward agent-based high-level orchestration, in which natural-language instructions can be translated into context-aware action sequences. While the integration of these agents and robotic capabilities is increasingly converging toward standardization through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the upper Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) layer remains fragmented by proprietary, ad hoc interfaces that hinder real-time human-in-the-loop collaboration. To address this fragmentation, this paper proposes the adoption of the Agent-Client Protocol (ACP) -- a communication standard originally introduced for coding agents in software engineering -- as a unified communication contract for the HRI layer in agent-based robotic systems. By combining ACP at the interface-agent link and MCP at the agent-execution link, we formulate a fully decoupled three-layer architecture that separates human interaction, deliberative orchestration, and physical execution. This topology removes rigid architectural dependencies, enabling heterogeneous user interfaces to connect to the same robotic system and allowing the underlying robotic platform to be replaced without requiring client-specific integration changes. Moreover, it provides native support for collaborative HRI capabilities such as real-time observability, explicit human authorization, and immediate task interruption. We experimentally evaluate the proposed architecture on a physical mobile robot, demonstrating interoperability across three heterogeneous user interfaces and validating real-time human-in-the-loop workflows with negligible latency overhead.

Robot foundation models have substantially advanced perception and control, but natural human-robot collaboration requires more than executing isolated commands. A robot must recognize ambiguity, maintain context across turns, communicate its intentions, and revise ongoing behavior as the user's intent changes. We present $\scriptstyle\mathsf{Ludi}_{\scriptscriptstyle 0.1}$, an agentic system for socially intelligent robots that integrates interactive speech, multimodal reasoning, memory, navigation, and learned manipulation. Its decision-making core is a fine-tuned vision-language model trained on multi-turn interaction traces spanning ambiguous requests, clarifications, corrections, interruptions, mixed social and task dialogue, and multi-step tasks. A purpose-built harness manages the model-tool interaction loop, while specialized navigation and manipulation policies execute physical skills. Ludi${}_{\scriptscriptstyle 0.1}$ demonstrates a practical path toward fluid human-robot collaboration today while producing the multimodal interaction traces needed to develop a more deeply integrated foundation model for robots and people.
