GPT-6 Astra is impressive, but agentic robotics ≠ just control. Physical agents should control robots, learn new skills, and design their own hardware. So we introduce RLE-Bench: 48 everyday robotics engineering tasks spanning closed-loop control, policy learning, perception, and mechanical design.
