通用智能体无需导航策略，仅靠视觉与离散动作就能实现媲美工业级的导航能力。

Autonomous embodied agents must sustain a long decision-making loop that involves perceiving, acting, verifying, and self-correcting over many steps. Current systems sustain this loop through task-specific workflows or embodied policies. However, these fixed workflows and policies offer limited flexibility across environments and often lack effective recovery strategies when execution goes wrong. We find that a general-purpose agent can instead sustain the loop on its own. We term this organization agentic embodied control: the reasoning model directly steers every action, keeping reasoning and control aligned. Using zero-shot navigation as a controlled testbed, we equip three coding-agent harnesses with only a monocular RGB camera and discrete actions. At default effort, replicated opus-5 runs average $70.7\pm3.5$% success, while fable-5 reaches 78% at maximum effort. When a trained waypoint tool is offered alongside primitives, the hybrid fable-5 agent reaches $76.7\pm0.6$% at default effort, using half the environment steps and under a quarter of the wall time. Across the ablations, model choice dominates performance variation. Observed harness differences are modest, and forced waypoints help weaker models but can hinder stronger ones. Although longer horizons, latency, and context growth remain barriers to sustained autonomy, these results show that a general-purpose model can already achieve competitive embodied control without a navigation policy.
