LLM planner's structural flaws persist despite model upgrades

A series on building an open-source LLM planning engine called PlannerCritic has revealed a structural flaw in the planner's ability to create reliable plans. Despite using advanced models like GPT-4o and implementing revision loops, the planner consistently makes the same three types of mistakes: unverified dependencies, unsafe sequencing, and weak rollback mechanisms. The author concludes that these issues stem from a fundamental problem with the planning structure itself, rather than the size or capability of the LLM, and that deterministic validation is necessary for improvement.
