Planning while moving faces an historical trade-off between deliberation and reactivity. A planner running concurrently with execution needs time to compute, so the robot must commit to an open-loop action chunk for that duration: a longer commitment buys a better plan at the cost of feedback frequency. Existing controllers fix this action commitment, and consequently the computation budget, before deployment. However, the optimal computation time is highly state-dependent (due to factors such as unmodeled dynamics, safety constraints, and marginal optimisation gains), i.e. dynamic, therefore offline static tuning risks leaving systems blind during critical maneuvers or unable to find global effective solutions. We cast the identification of the optimal computation budget as a semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) in which a single decision defines both the robot action commitments and the time allocated to the solver. To solve this, we train a reinforcement-learning policy conditioned on the current state, the executing plan, and inexpensive planner statistics. Across ground-robot navigation, agile quadrotor flight, and contact-rich manipulation, the learned policy changes its budget with the demands of the scenario, discovering efficient reasoning patterns that outperform fixed-budget baselines. https://lorenzomagnino.github.io/learning-robot-metareasoning-review/
