MAESTRO: Orchestrating Robotics Modules with Coding Agents for Zero-Shot Generalist Robots

MAESTRO: Orchestrating Robotics Modules with Coding Agents for Zero-Shot Generalist Robots

Summary

This research introduces MAESTRO, a system that leverages vision-language models as coding agents to write robot programs using a curated library of perception, planning, and control tools.

Editorial context

The paper proposes MAESTRO, a framework that uses vision-language models as coding agents to orchestrate robotics tool libraries for zero-shot generalist robot performance, contrasting this approach with dominant end-to-end policy training methods.

arXiv:2511.00917v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Today's dominant route to generalist robots scales robotics data to train end-to-end policies. We instead use a vision-language model (VLM) as a coding agent that writes robot programs using a curated library of perception, planning, and control tools. MAESTRO's orchestration harness packages multi-step perception and action procedures into callable tools and guides
