arXiv:2606.13673v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spatial reasoning, the ability to determine where objects are, how they relate, and how they move in 3D, remains a fundamental challenge for vision-language models (VLMs). Tool-augmented agents attempt to address this by augmenting VLMs with specialist perception modules, yet their effectiveness is bounded by the action interface through which those tools are invoked. In this work, we study how the design of this interface shapes the agent's capacity for open-ended spatial reasoning. Existing spatial agents either employ single-pass code execut
The continuous evolution of vision-language models and the push towards more autonomous AI agents necessitates rethinking foundational interfaces for spatial reasoning.
Improving AI's ability to interpret and interact with 3D environments is critical for progress in robotics, AI agents, and various real-world applications.
This research focuses on optimizing the action interface for spatial reasoning tools, potentially leading to more effective and versatile AI agents.
