## Summary

The authors propose the SAGE (Semantic-to-Action Grounded Execution) framework, which uses trajectories output by a vision-language model (VLM) as preferences over complete geometric candidate paths, and combines each candidate's geometric score with its agreement with the VLM trajectory through rank fusion.
