Autonomous property inspection requires more than robust robot navigation: a deployable system must connect heterogeneous sensing, reusable autonomy capabilities, multimodal scene understanding, human interaction, and enterprise response within a traceable operational loop. Existing quadruped inspection systems commonly integrate these functions through task-specific interfaces, making contextual coordination, knowledge reuse, and controlled adaptation difficult. This paper presents \textit{Harness Robotic OS} (HROS), a unified embodied-agent runtime, and Argos, its realization for residential-community inspection. HROS organizes the system into robot runtime, embodied autonomy skills, cognitive agent runtime, and interaction and operations planes. A shared context connects physical state with agent reasoning; streaming ASR/TTS supports voice-based mission interaction; hierarchical working, episodic, and semantic memory preserves operational knowledge; and a safety-gated self-evolution loop converts execution traces into versioned candidate updates without permitting unconstrained online modification. The Argos prototype integrates a Vbot quadruped, Fast-LIO2 localization and mapping, Hobot-Stereo depth perception, PCT-Planner global planning, EGO-Planner local motion generation, and OpenClaw-orchestrated Qwen3-VL inspection analysis. Experiments in a residential property environment achieved 100\% waypoint reachability, outdoor localization error below 10~cm, local obstacle-response latency below 200~ms, representative hazard-detection rates of 85--95\%, and 99\% success in alarm delivery and structured-report generation. These results validate the deployed navigation and inspection closed loop, while HROS provides an extensible software foundation for memory-augmented, voice-aware, and continuously improvable embodied inspection agents.

EV-WM represents candidate quality with feature and event scores, but these scores do not explicitly record an unmet task predicate, a route label for an available correction mechanism, or a post-correction acceptance result. We present Onto-EV-WM, an ontology-grounded diagnosis and verification-gated correction interface layered above EV-WM rather than a replacement world-model architecture. The implemented task-local TBox defines entity types, predicate signatures, and constraints; source-specific grounding maps predicted or simulator-observed states to task ABoxes; and deterministic rules retain each missing predicate and its arguments when assigning a route label. Learned or heuristic proposers remain separate from this symbolic interface; native task predicates determine acceptance, and the bounded protocol determines whether a failed verification is retried. In the aligned PointMaze evaluation, EV-WM and Onto-EV-WM both report 94% success, with mean final-state distances of 0.90573 and 0.61177, respectively; the separately budgeted search reaches 100% success. On LIBERO-Goal, the ontology represents failed task conditions as typed records, retains their predicate arguments, and associates them with the declared source/joint correction route and predicate-gated acceptance; the complete configuration reports 93.8% corrected-window success on seed 0 and 94.05 +- 0.30% across four evaluation-sampling seeds. On the fixed 10,030-task LIBERO-Plus registry, Onto-EV-WM succeeds on 8,526 tasks (85.00%), with suite-level success rates of 65.98% for LIBERO-10, 91.39% for LIBERO-Goal, and 91.38% for both LIBERO-Object and LIBERO-Spatial. These numbers report the performance of the complete ontology-grounded configurations under the tested simulator protocols; an ontology-only causal share is not measured separately, and real-robot recovery is not evaluated.
