HexaShell: A Thin Harness for Exploring the Limits of VLM Agents as Robot Coding Agents

Agents built on vision language models (VLMs) now compete with learned policies on robot manipulation leaderboards. We ask how far a coding agent can go when it controls a robot instead of a computer, and where it stops. Our system, HexaShell, keeps the harne...

Agents built on vision language models (VLMs) now compete with learned policies on robot manipulation leaderboards. We ask how far a coding agent can go when it controls a robot instead of a computer, and where it stops. Our system, HexaShell, keeps the harness thin: it only turns the agent's commands into robot...

Hardware and robotics watchers may want to track whether this becomes a product, benchmark, or deployment signal.
