Recent advancements in generative imitation learning have significantly propelled the field of robotic manipulation. However, the majority of existing models rely heavily on Behavior Cloning (BC), a paradigm that suffers from compounding errors and distributional shift. Consequently, the efficacy of these models in practical industrial deployments remains limited. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel, plug-and-play fine-tuning pipeline designed to facilitate the robust deployment of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models in real-world environments. In contrast to contemporary reinforcement learning (RL) fine-tuning strategies, which are often constrained by specific model architectures, our proposed framework is model-agnostic and adaptable to a diverse range of VLA models. We conceptualize VLA-generated actions as a unified interface, upon which we train a residual policy. This policy is designed to rectify suboptimal actions and address the distributional shift inherent in imitation learning. Additionally, we incorporate human-in-the-loop guidance to ensure safe exploration and maximize training efficiency. We conduct experiments directly in real-world robotic settings. The results demonstrate that within only 1.5 hour of real-world online RL training, the average success rate exceeds 95% on real robots. Our work presents a practical solution for deploying behavior cloning models in industrial scenarios.
