arXiv:2610.13354v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The NIST Assembly Task Board #1 remains a challenging benchmark for learning-based methods in robotic manipulation. Over short horizons, it demands precise, contact-rich control of small, tight-fitting parts. Over long horizons, it requires recovery and coordination across extended action sequences. Demonstrations, task decomposition, and dense progress rewards have enabled research advances by providing guidance on how to assemble. But how much of the strategy must be specified? The progression from AlphaGo to AlphaGo Zero showed that RL at scal
