A Robot Action Must Renew Its Lease
LEASH adds task, action and irreversible-operation gates around foundation-model robot control.
Summary
LEASH adds task, action and irreversible-operation gates around foundation-model robot control.
RoboRisk evaluates task refusal, plan repair, execution hazards, injection and sequential memory across 92 simulated and 13 physical-robot tasks. The authors report high harm rates from six tested foundation models, then reduced harm by wrapping planners in three visual-context safety gates. The reported harness largely preserved completion while adding little time and token overhead.
Why it matters
