Wei Zhang, Lirong Xiang, Charles Fleming

CARE coordinates local and cloud executors during embodied tasks, using a critic to escalate when local actions appear unreliable and shared memory to preserve verified progress across handoffs. On Habitat rearrangement, it achieves 92.5% success versus AdaPlanner’s 74.2%, with median time between actions of 0.80 seconds versus Cloud-only’s 4.61. This is a simulation result; CARE scores below Cloud-only on EmbodiedBench.
