## Summary

The authors propose RAPID, a robotic agent disassembly platform that integrates a gantry-mounted industrial robotic arm, RGB-D perception, and an automated nut-running tool to remove fasteners on a full-scale EV battery pack. Open-vocabulary object detection achieves 0.9757 mAP50; among three one-shot fastener removal strategies, taught-in poses achieved a 97% success rate in 24 minutes, one-shot vision execution achieved 57% in 29 minutes, and visual servoing achieved 83% in 36 minutes (n=204).
