## Summary

The study proposes an OCT-guided data-driven framework that learns soft tissue shape control from user demonstrations and executes it with closed-loop OCT feedback. In 12 configurations and 576 phantom trials, the Explicit policy using residual-conditioned voxel point clouds achieved Shape RMSE of 0.534 mm on the depth task and 0.443 mm on the directional task; full-volume Diffusion with residual conditioning reduced directional error from 0.748 mm to 0.555 mm.
