Recent end-to-end neural motion planners generate trajectories from raw sensor observations, avoiding the privileged geometric models required by classical planners. However, collision-free planning in cluttered environments remains challenging. We present NeurRAFT, a generative planning framework based on anchor-level flow matching and clearance-aware preference tuning. Unlike prior neural planners that model dense waypoint sequences and spend capacity on redundant local details and smoothness, NeurRAFT operates on compact anchor waypoints. We train the planner using a Jacobian-weighted loss that accounts for the task-space impact of each anchor. At inference, the anchors are generated in two integration steps, followed by cubic-spline interpolation to recover a smooth, full-resolution trajectory. Since imitation learning from positive demonstrations cannot distinguish collision-free from near-collision trajectories, collision-prone behaviors persist at test time. Rather than relying on post-hoc corrections, we directly reshape the pretrained planner's distribution toward safer solutions without augmenting inference. Specifically, Direct Preference Optimization shifts probability mass toward trajectories with larger obstacle clearance, with the resulting improvement directly absorbed into the planner parameters. Experiments show substantial improvements over state-of-the-art planners, while real-world experiments demonstrate zero-shot transfer to a Franka robot under noisy and partially occluded depth observations.
