The paper presents NL2Plan, a domain-agnostic offline Large Language Model (LLM)-driven planning system that combines the strengths of classical planners and LLMs. By incrementally extracting information from a short text prompt using an LLM, NL2Plan creates a complete PDDL description of both the domain and problem, which is then solved by a classical planner. The system is evaluated on four planning domains and shows a significant improvement over a plain chain-of-thought reasoning LLM approach, solving 10 out of 15 tasks. Additionally, NL2Plan reports failures instead of returning invalid plans, increasing explainability and making it an assistive tool for PDDL creation.

NL2Plan is a new planning system that helps people create better plans by using language models to make the process easier and more accurate. Right now, planners can only work with specific types of input, which makes them hard to use. NL2Plan changes this by letting users give it any kind of text prompt, then using an LLM to extract the important information and turn it into a plan that a classical planner can solve. This system is tested on four different planning domains and shows big improvements over previous approaches, solving 10 out of 15 tasks.
