Long-horizon robotic tasks are commonly decomposed into semantic subgoals to simplify planning. However, subgoal progress in LLM-based planning is typically inferred implicitly from interaction histories. Inaccurate estimates can misguide execution and allow local errors to propagate. To address this, we propose ProLoop, a Progress-Aware Closed-Loop framework that derives explicit subgoal progress from structured relations between desired and execution states. A learned State-Relation Monitor assesses these relations, which are then aggregated into subgoal progress as ongoing, deviated, or completed. The resulting progress guides execution adaptation, enabling reliable progress-aware control throughout execution. Experiments on AgentBoard ALFWorld and a real-world robotic platform show that ProLoop improves success rate by 12.94% overall and by 15.46% on Hard tasks, while reducing environment interactions by 32.3%.
Large Language Models (LLMs) are widely adopted for reflective error correction in task planning; however, existing approaches primarily rely on autonomous exploration, rendering them prone to accumulating erroneous experiences during early interactions with new environments. To address this limitation, we propose the Flexible Instructional Scaffolding Reflection Framework (FISRF), an agent--mentor architecture that estimates the robot's Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) in task planning and adaptively selects reflection strategies and mentor guidance, thereby facilitating the accumulation of effective error-correction experience. Experiments in ALFWorld and on real-world robotic platforms demonstrate that FISRF reduces the average number of error-correction rounds by 37% and redundant reasoning by 25.1%, while improving the overall task success rate by 8%.
