-# Integration tests: build an isolated Docker image per benchmark and run a

-# dependency trees (e.g. hf-libero vs metaworld==3.0.0) can never collide.

-# To add a new benchmark:
-#   1. Add docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.<name>  (install only lerobot[<name>])
-#   2. Copy one of the jobs below and adjust the image name and eval command.

-## Architecture (`src/lerobot/`)
-
-- **`scripts/`** — CLI entry points (`lerobot-train`, `lerobot-eval`, `lerobot-record`, etc.), mapped in `pyproject.toml [project.scripts]`.
-- **`configs/`** — Dataclass configs parsed by draccus. `train.py` has `TrainPipelineConfig` (top-level). `policies.py` has `PreTrainedConfig` base. Polymorphism via `draccus.ChoiceRegistry` with `@register_subclass("name")` decorators.
-- **`policies/`** — Each policy in its own subdir. All inherit `PreTrainedPolicy` (`nn.Module` + `HubMixin`) from `pretrained.py`. Factory with lazy imports in `factory.py`.
-- **`processor/`** — Data transformation pipeline. `ProcessorStep` base with registry. `DataProcessorPipeline` / `PolicyProcessorPipeline` chain steps.
-- **`datasets/`** — `LeRobotDataset` (episode-aware sampling + video decoding) and `LeRobotDatasetMetadata`.
-- **`envs/`** — `EnvConfig` base in `configs.py`, factory in `factory.py`. Each env subclass defines `gym_kwargs` and `create_envs()`.
-- **`robots/`, `motors/`, `cameras/`, `teleoperators/`** — Hardware abstraction layers.
-- **`types.py`** and **`configs/types.py`** — Core type aliases and feature type definitions.
-
-## Repository Structure (outside `src/`)
-
-- **`tests/`** — Pytest suite organized by module. Fixtures in `tests/fixtures/`, mocks in `tests/mocks/`. Hardware tests use skip decorators from `tests/utils.py`. E2E tests via `Makefile` write to `tests/outputs/`.
-- **`.github/workflows/`** — CI: `quality.yml` (pre-commit), `fast_tests.yml` (base deps, every PR), `full_tests.yml` (all extras + E2E + GPU, post-approval), `latest_deps_tests.yml` (daily lockfile upgrade), `security.yml` (TruffleHog), `release.yml` (PyPI publish on tags).
-- **`docs/source/`** — HF documentation (`.mdx` files). Per-policy READMEs, hardware guides, tutorials. Built separately via `docs-requirements.txt` and CI workflows.
-- **`examples/`** — End-user tutorials and scripts organized by use case (dataset creation, training, hardware setup).
-- **`docker/`** — Dockerfiles for user (`Dockerfile.user`) and CI (`Dockerfile.internal`).
-- **`benchmarks/`** — Performance benchmarking scripts.
-- **Root files**: `pyproject.toml` (single source of truth for deps, build, tool config), `Makefile` (E2E test targets), `uv.lock`, `CONTRIBUTING.md` & `README.md` (general information).
-
-## Notes
-
-- **Mypy is gradual**: strict only for `lerobot.envs`, `lerobot.configs`, `lerobot.optim`, `lerobot.model`, `lerobot.cameras`, `lerobot.motors`, `lerobot.transport`. Add type annotations when modifying these modules.
-- **Optional dependencies**: many policies, envs, and robots are behind extras (e.g., `lerobot[aloha]`). New imports for optional packages must be guarded or lazy. See `pyproject.toml [project.optional-dependencies]`.
-- **Video decoding**: datasets can store observations as video files. `LeRobotDataset` handles frame extraction, but tests need ffmpeg installed.
-- **Prioritize use of `uv run`** to execute Python commands (not raw `python` or `pip`).

-# AGENT_GUIDE.md — LeRobot Helper for AI Agents & Users
-
-This file is a practical, copy-paste-friendly companion for any AI agent (Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, etc.) helping a user work with LeRobot. It complements [`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md) (dev/contributor context) with **user-facing guidance**: how to start, what to train, how long, how to record, and how to calibrate an SO-101.
-
----
-
-## 1. Start here — ask the user first (MANDATORY)
-
-Before suggesting any command, an agent MUST ask the user at least these questions and wait for answers:
-
-1. **What's your goal?** (e.g. "teach my SO-101 to fold a cloth", "train a policy on an existing HF dataset", "contribute a PR", "understand the codebase")
-2. **What hardware do you have?**
-   - Robot: none / SO-100 / SO-101 / Koch / LeKiwi / Reachy / other
-   - Teleop: leader arm / phone / keyboard / gamepad / none
-   - Cameras: how many, resolution, fixed or moving?
-3. **What machine will you train on?**
-   - GPU model + VRAM (e.g. "laptop 3060 6 GB", "RTX 4090 24 GB", "A100 80 GB", "CPU only")
-   - OS: macOS / Linux / Windows
-4. **Skill level & time budget?** First time, some ML, experienced? Hours, days, a weekend?
-5. **Do you already have a dataset?** Yes (HF repo id?) / no / want to record one
-6. **How can I help right now?** (pick one concrete next step)
-
-Only after you have answers, propose a concrete path. If something is ambiguous, ask again rather than guessing. Bias toward **the simplest thing that works** for the user's hardware and goal.
-
----
-
-## 2. LeRobot in 60 seconds
-
-LeRobot = **datasets + policies + envs + robot control**, unified by a small set of strong abstractions.
-
-- **`LeRobotDataset`** — episode-aware dataset (video or images + actions + state), loadable from the Hub or disk.
-- **Policies** (`ACT`, `Diffusion`, `SmolVLA`, `π0`, `π0.5`, `Wall-X`, `X-VLA`, `VQ-BeT`, `TD-MPC`, …) — all inherit `PreTrainedPolicy` and can be pushed/pulled from the Hub.
-- **Processors** — small composable transforms between dataset → policy → robot.
-- **Envs** (sim) and **Robots** (real) — same action/observation contract so code swaps cleanly.
-- **CLI** — `lerobot-record`, `lerobot-train`, `lerobot-eval`, `lerobot-teleoperate`, `lerobot-calibrate`, `lerobot-find-port`, `lerobot-setup-motors`, `lerobot-replay`.
-
-See [`AGENTS.md`](./AGENTS.md) for repo architecture.
-
----
-
-## 3. Quickstart paths (pick one)
-
-### Path A — "I have an SO-101 and want my first trained policy"
-
-Go to §4 (SO-101 end-to-end), then §5 (data tips), then §6 (pick a policy — likely **ACT**), then §7 (how long), then §8 (eval).
-
-### Path B — "No hardware, I want to train on an existing dataset"
-
-Skip §4. Pick a policy in §6, pick a duration in §7, then run `lerobot-train` per §4.9 with a Hub `--dataset.repo_id` and an `--env.type` for eval. Finish with §8.
-
-### Path C — "I just want to understand the codebase"
-
-Read §2 above, then `AGENTS.md` "Architecture", then open `src/lerobot/policies/act/` and `src/lerobot/datasets/lerobot_dataset.py` as canonical examples.
-
----
-
-## 4. SO-101 end-to-end cheat-sheet
-
-Full details in [`docs/source/so101.mdx`](./docs/source/so101.mdx) and [`docs/source/il_robots.mdx`](./docs/source/il_robots.mdx). Minimum commands in order. Confirm arms are assembled + powered before issuing.
-
-**4.1 Install**
-
-```bash
-pip install 'lerobot[feetech]'              # SO-100/SO-101 motor stack
-# pip install 'lerobot[all]'                # everything
-# pip install 'lerobot[aloha,pusht]'        # specific features
-# pip install 'lerobot[smolvla]'            # add SmolVLA deps
-git lfs install && git lfs pull
-hf auth login                               # required to push datasets/policies
-```
-
-Contributors can alternatively use `uv sync --locked --extra feetech` (see `AGENTS.md`).
-
-**4.2 Find USB ports** — run once per arm, unplug when prompted.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-find-port
-```
-
-macOS: `/dev/tty.usbmodem...`; Linux: `/dev/ttyACM0` (may need `sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyACM0`).
-
-**4.3 Setup motor IDs & baudrate** (one-time, per arm)
-
-```bash
-lerobot-setup-motors --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT>
-lerobot-setup-motors --teleop.type=so101_leader  --teleop.port=<LEADER_PORT>
-```
-
-**4.4 Calibrate** — center all joints, press Enter, sweep each joint through its full range. The `id` is the calibration key — reuse it everywhere.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-calibrate --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower
-lerobot-calibrate --teleop.type=so101_leader  --teleop.port=<LEADER_PORT>   --teleop.id=my_leader
-```
-
-**4.5 Teleoperate** (sanity check, no recording)
-
-```bash
-lerobot-teleoperate \
-  --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower \
-  --teleop.type=so101_leader  --teleop.port=<LEADER_PORT>  --teleop.id=my_leader \
-  --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-  --display_data=true
-```
-
-> **Feetech timeout / comms error on SO-100 / SO-101?** Before touching software, check the **red motor LEDs** on the daisy chain.
->
-> - **All steady red, gripper → base chain** → wiring OK.
-> - **One or more motors dark / chain stops mid-way** → wiring issue: reseat the 3-pin cables, check the controller-board power supply, and make sure each motor is fully clicked in.
-> - **LEDs blinking** → the motor is in an **error state**: usually overload (forcing a joint past its limit) **or wrong power supply voltage**. SO-100 / SO-101 ship in two variants — a **5 V / 7.4 V** build and a **12 V** build — they are NOT interchangeable. Using a 12 V PSU on a 5 V / 7.4 V arm (or vice-versa) will trip this error; confirm your motor variant before powering up.
->
-> Most "timeout" errors are physical, not code.
-
-**4.6 Record a dataset** — keys: **→** next, **←** redo, **ESC** finish & upload.
-
-```bash
-HF_USER=$(NO_COLOR=1 hf auth whoami | awk -F': *' 'NR==1 {print $2}')
-
-lerobot-record \
-  --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower \
-  --teleop.type=so101_leader  --teleop.port=<LEADER_PORT>  --teleop.id=my_leader \
-  --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/my_task \
-  --dataset.single_task="<describe the task in one sentence>" \
-  --dataset.num_episodes=50 \
-  --dataset.episode_time_s=30 \
-  --dataset.reset_time_s=10 \
-  --display_data=true
-```
-
-**4.7 Visualize** — **always** do this before training. Look for missing frames, camera blur, unreachable targets, inconsistent object positions.
-After upload: https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/visualize_dataset → paste `${HF_USER}/my_task`. Works for **any LeRobot-formatted Hub dataset** — use it to scout other datasets, inspect episode quality, or debug your own data before retraining.
-
-**4.8 Replay an episode** (sanity check)
-
-```bash
-lerobot-replay --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower \
-  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/my_task --dataset.episode=0
-```
-
-**4.9 Train** (default: ACT — fastest, lowest memory). Apple silicon: `--policy.device=mps`. See §6/§7 for policy and duration.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/my_task \
-  --policy.type=act \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --output_dir=outputs/train/act_my_task \
-  --job_name=act_my_task \
-  --batch_size=8 \
-  --wandb.enable=true \
-  --policy.repo_id=${HF_USER}/act_my_task
-```
-
-**4.10 Evaluate on the real robot** — compare success rate to a teleoperated baseline.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-record \
-  --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower \
-  --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/eval_my_task \
-  --dataset.single_task="<same task description as training>" \
-  --dataset.num_episodes=10 \
-  --policy.path=${HF_USER}/act_my_task
-```

-## 5. Data collection tips (beginner → reliable policy)
-
-Good data beats clever models. Adopt these defaults and deviate only with evidence.
-
-### 5.1 Setup & ergonomics
-
-- **Fix the rig and cameras** before touching the software. If the rig vibrates or the operator gets frustrated, fix that first — more bad data won't help.
-- **Lighting matters more than resolution.** Diffuse, consistent light. Avoid moving shadows.
-- **"Can you do the task from the camera view alone?"** If no, your cameras are wrong. Fix before recording.
-- Enable **action interpolation** for rollouts when available for smoother trajectories.
-
-### 5.2 Practice before you record
-
-- Do 5–10 demos without recording. Build a deliberate, repeatable strategy.
-- Hesitant or inconsistent demos teach the model hesitation.
-
-### 5.3 Quality over speed
-
-Deliberate, high-quality execution beats fast sloppy runs. Optimize for speed only **after** strategy is dialed in — never trade quality for it.
-
-### 5.4 Consistency within and across episodes
-
-Same grasp, approach vector, and timing. Coherent strategies are much easier to learn than wildly varying movements.
-
-### 5.5 Start small, then extend (the golden rule)
-
-- **First 50 episodes = constrained version** of the task: one object, fixed position, fixed camera setup, one operator.
-- Train a quick ACT model. See what fails.
-- **Then add diversity** along one axis at a time: more positions → more lighting → more objects → more operators.
-- Don't try to collect the "perfect dataset" on day one. Iterate.
-
-### 5.6 Policy choice for beginners
-
-- **Laptop / first time / want results fast → ACT.** Works surprisingly well, trains fast even on a laptop GPU.
-- **Bigger GPU / language-conditioned / multi-task → SmolVLA.** Unfreezing the vision encoder (see §7) is a big win here.
-- Defer π0 / π0.5 / Wall-X / X-VLA until you have a proven ACT baseline and a 20+ GB GPU.
-
-### 5.7 Recommended defaults for your first task
-
-| Setting          | Value                                                                                                                                                 |
-| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Episodes         | **50** to start, scale to 100–300 after first training                                                                                                |
-| Episode length   | 20–45 s (shorter is fine for grasp/place)                                                                                                             |
-| Reset time       | 10 s                                                                                                                                                  |
-| FPS              | 30                                                                                                                                                    |
-| Cameras          | **2 cameras recommended**: 1 fixed front + 1 wrist. Multi-view often outperforms single-view. A single fixed camera also works to keep things simple. |
-| Task description | Short, specific, action-phrased sentence                                                                                                              |
-
-### 5.8 Troubleshooting signal
-
-- Policy fails at one specific stage → record 10–20 more episodes **targeting that stage**.
-- Policy flaps / oscillates → likely inconsistent demos, or need more training; re-record worst episodes (use **←** to redo).
-- Policy ignores the object → camera framing or lighting issue, not a model issue.

-## 6. Which policy should I train?
-
-Match the policy to the user's **GPU memory** and **time budget**. Numbers below come from an internal profiling run (one training update per policy). They are **indicative only** — see caveats.
-
-### 6.1 Profiling snapshot (indicative)
-
-All policies typically train for **5–10 epochs** (see §7).
-
-| Policy      | Batch | Update (ms) | Peak GPU mem (GB) | Best for                                                                                         |

-| `act`       |     4 |    **83.9** |          **0.94** | First-time users, laptops, single-task. Fast and reliable.                                       |
-| `diffusion` |     4 |       168.6 |              4.94 | Multi-modal action distributions; needs mid-range GPU.                                           |
-| `smolvla`   |     1 |       357.8 |              3.93 | Language-conditioned, multi-task, small VLA. **Unfreeze vision encoder for big gains** (see §7). |
-| `xvla`      |     1 |       731.6 |             15.52 | Large VLA, multi-task.                                                                           |

-
-**Critical caveats:**
-
-- **Optimizer:** measured with **SGD**. LeRobot's default is **AdamW**, which keeps extra optimizer state → **peak memory will be noticeably higher** with the default, especially for `pi0`, `pi05`, `wall_x`, `xvla`.
-- **Batch size:** the large policies were profiled at batch 1. In practice use a **larger batch** for stable training (see §7.4). Memory scales roughly linearly with batch.
-
-### 6.2 Decision rules
-
-- **< 8 GB VRAM (laptop, 3060, M-series Mac):** → `act`. Maybe `diffusion` if you have ~6–8 GB free.
-- **12–16 GB VRAM (4070/4080, A4000):** → `smolvla` with defaults, or `act`/`diffusion` with larger batch. `pi0`/`pi05`/`wall_x`/`xvla` feasible only with small batch + gradient accumulation.
-- **24+ GB VRAM (3090/4090/A5000):** → any policy. Prefer `smolvla` (unfrozen) for multi-task; `act` for single-task grasp-and-place (still often the best ROI). Could experiment with `pi0` or `pi05` or `xvla`
-- **80 GB (A100/H100):** → any, with healthy batch. `pi05`, `xvla`, `wall_x` become comfortable.
-- **CPU only:** → don't train here. Use Google Colab (see [`docs/source/notebooks.mdx`](./docs/source/notebooks.mdx)) or a rented GPU.

-## 7. How long should I train?
-
-Robotics imitation learning usually converges in a **few epochs over the dataset**, not hundreds of thousands of raw steps. Think **epochs first**, then translate to steps.
-
-### 7.1 Rule of thumb
-
-- **Typical total: 5–10 epochs.** Start at 5, eval, then decide if more helps.
-- Very small datasets (< 30 episodes) may want slightly more epochs — but first, **collect more data**.
-- VLAs with a pretrained vision backbone typically need **fewer** epochs than training from scratch.
-
-### 7.2 Steps ↔ epochs conversion
-
-```
-total_frames     = sum of frames over all episodes      # e.g. 50 eps × 30 fps × 30 s ≈ 45,000
-steps_per_epoch  = ceil(total_frames / batch_size)
-total_steps      = epochs × steps_per_epoch
-```
-
-Examples for `--batch_size=8`:
-
-| Dataset size            |  Frames | Steps / epoch | 5 epochs | 10 epochs |
-| ----------------------- | ------: | ------------: | -------: | --------: |
-| 50 eps × 30 s @ 30 fps  |  45,000 |        ~5,625 |      28k |       56k |
-| 100 eps × 30 s @ 30 fps |  90,000 |       ~11,250 |      56k |      113k |
-| 300 eps × 30 s @ 30 fps | 270,000 |       ~33,750 |     169k |      338k |
-
-Pass the resulting total with `--steps=<N>`; eval at intermediate checkpoints (`outputs/train/.../checkpoints/`).
-
-### 7.3 Per-policy starting points (single-task, ~50 episodes)
-
-| Policy         | Batch | Steps (first run) | Notes                                                             |
-| -------------- | ----: | ----------------: | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `act`          |  8–16 |           30k–80k | Usually converges under 50k for single-task.                      |
-| `diffusion`    |  8–16 |          80k–150k | Benefits from longer training than ACT.                           |
-| `smolvla`      |   4–8 |           30k–80k | Pretrained VLM → converges fast.                                  |
-| `pi0` / `pi05` |   1–4 |           30k–80k | Memory-bound; use gradient accumulation for effective batch ≥ 16! |
-
-### 7.4 Batch size guidance
-
-- **Bigger batch is preferable** for stable gradients on teleop data.
-- If GPU memory is the bottleneck, use **gradient accumulation** to raise _effective_ batch without raising peak memory.
-- Scale **learning rate** gently with batch; most LeRobot defaults work fine for a 2–4× batch change.
-
-### 7.5 Scale LR schedule & checkpoints with `--steps`
-
-LeRobot's default schedulers (e.g. SmolVLA's cosine decay) use `scheduler_decay_steps=30_000`, which is sized for long training runs. When you shorten training (e.g. 5k–10k steps on a small dataset), **scale the scheduler down to match** — otherwise the LR stays near the peak and never decays. Same for checkpoint frequency.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train ... \
-  --steps=5000 \
-  --policy.scheduler_decay_steps=5000 \
-  --save_freq=5000
-```
-
-Rule of thumb: set `scheduler_decay_steps ≈ steps`, and `save_freq` to whatever granularity you want for eval (e.g. every 1k–5k steps). Match `scheduler_warmup_steps` proportionally if your run is very short.
-
-### 7.6 SmolVLA: unfreeze the vision encoder for real gains
-
-SmolVLA ships with `freeze_vision_encoder=True`. Unfreezing usually **improves performance substantially** on specialized tasks, at the cost of more VRAM and slower steps. Enable with:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train ... --policy.type=smolvla \
-  --policy.freeze_vision_encoder=false \
-  --policy.train_expert_only=false
-```
-
-### 7.7 Signals to stop / keep going
-
-- Train loss plateaus → stop, save a Hub checkpoint.
-- Train loss still dropping and you're under 10 epochs → keep going.
-

-
-## 8. Evaluation & benchmarks
-
-Two flavors of evaluation:
-
-### 8.1 Real-robot eval (SO-101, etc.)
-
-Reuse `lerobot-record` with `--policy.path` to run the trained policy on-robot and save the run as an eval dataset. Convention: prefix the dataset with `eval_`.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-record \
-  --robot.type=so101_follower --robot.port=<FOLLOWER_PORT> --robot.id=my_follower \
-  --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-  --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/eval_my_task \
-  --dataset.single_task="<same task description used during training>" \
-  --dataset.num_episodes=10 \
-  --policy.path=${HF_USER}/act_my_task
-```
-
-Report success rate across episodes. Compare to a teleoperated baseline and to an earlier checkpoint to catch regressions.
-
-### 8.2 Sim-benchmark eval
-
-For policies trained on sim datasets (PushT, Aloha, LIBERO, MetaWorld, RoboCasa, …) use `lerobot-eval` against the matching `env.type`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=${HF_USER}/diffusion_pusht \
-  --env.type=pusht \
-  --eval.n_episodes=50 \
-  --eval.batch_size=10 \
-  --policy.device=cuda
-```
-
-- Use `--policy.path=outputs/train/.../checkpoints/<step>/pretrained_model` for local checkpoints.
-- `--eval.n_episodes` should be ≥ 50 for a stable success-rate estimate.
-- Available envs live in `src/lerobot/envs/`. See [`docs/source/libero.mdx`](./docs/source/libero.mdx), [`metaworld.mdx`](./docs/source/metaworld.mdx), [`robocasa.mdx`](./docs/source/robocasa.mdx), [`vlabench.mdx`](./docs/source/vlabench.mdx) for specific benchmarks.
-- To add a new benchmark, see [`docs/source/adding_benchmarks.mdx`](./docs/source/adding_benchmarks.mdx) and [`envhub.mdx`](./docs/source/envhub.mdx).
-
-### 8.2b Dockerfiles for benchmark eval
-
-Benchmark envs have native dependencies that are painful to install locally. The repo ships **pre-baked Dockerfiles** for each supported benchmark — use these to run `lerobot-eval` in a reproducible environment:
-
-| Benchmark   | Dockerfile                                                                             |
-| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| LIBERO      | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.libero`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.libero)           |
-| LIBERO+     | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.libero_plus`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.libero_plus) |
-| MetaWorld   | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.metaworld`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.metaworld)     |
-| RoboCasa    | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robocasa`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robocasa)       |
-| RoboCerebra | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robocerebra`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robocerebra) |
-| RoboMME     | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robomme`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robomme)         |
-| RoboTwin    | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robotwin`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robotwin)       |
-| VLABench    | [`docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.vlabench`](./docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.vlabench)       |
-
-Build and run (adapt to your benchmark):
-
-```bash
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robomme -t lerobot-bench-robomme .
-docker run --gpus all --rm -it \
-  -v $HOME/.cache/huggingface:/root/.cache/huggingface \
-  lerobot-bench-robomme \
-  lerobot-eval --policy.path=<your_policy> --env.type=<env> --eval.n_episodes=50
-```
-
-See [`docker/README.md`](./docker/README.md) for base-image details.
-
-### 8.3 Target success rates
-
-Single-task grasp-and-place with 50 clean episodes: ACT should reach **> 70% success** on the training configuration. Less → data problem (see §5), not model problem. Expect a drop when generalizing to new positions — scale episodes or diversity to recover.

-# Docker
-
-This directory contains Dockerfiles for running LeRobot in containerized environments. Both images are **built nightly from `main`** and published to Docker Hub with the full environment pre-baked — no dependency setup required.
-
-## Pre-built Images
-
-```bash
-# CPU-only image (based on Dockerfile.user)
-docker pull huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-
-# GPU image with CUDA support (based on Dockerfile.internal)
-docker pull huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-## Quick Start
-
-The fastest way to start training is to pull the GPU image and run `lerobot-train` directly. This is the same environment used for all of our CI, so it is a well-tested, batteries-included setup.
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-
-# inside the container:
-lerobot-train --policy.type=act --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/aloha_sim_transfer_cube_human
-```
-
-## Dockerfiles
-
-### `Dockerfile.user` (CPU)
-
-A lightweight image based on `python:3.12-slim`. Includes all Python dependencies and system libraries but does not include CUDA — there is no GPU support. Useful for exploring the codebase, running scripts, or working with robots, but not practical for training.
-
-### `Dockerfile.internal` (GPU)
-
-A CUDA-enabled image based on `nvidia/cuda`. This is the image for training — mostly used for internal interactions with the GPU cluster.
-
-## Usage
-
-### Running a pre-built image
-
-```bash
-# CPU
-docker run -it --rm huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-
-# GPU
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-### Building locally
-
-From the repo root:
-
-```bash
-# CPU
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.user -t lerobot-user .
-docker run -it --rm lerobot-user
-
-# GPU
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.internal -t lerobot-internal .
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb lerobot-internal
-```
-
-### Multi-GPU training
-
-To select specific GPUs, set `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES` when launching the container:
-
-```bash
-# Use 4 GPUs
-docker run -it --rm --gpus all --shm-size 16gb \
-  -e CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 \
-  huggingface/lerobot-gpu:latest
-```
-
-### USB device access (e.g. robots, cameras)
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --device=/dev/ -v /dev/:/dev/ --rm huggingface/lerobot-cpu:latest
-```

-# Adding a New Benchmark
-
-This guide walks you through adding a new simulation benchmark to LeRobot. Follow the steps in order and use the existing benchmarks as templates.
-
-A benchmark in LeRobot is a set of [Gymnasium](https://gymnasium.farama.org/) environments that wrap a third-party simulator (like LIBERO or Meta-World) behind a standard `gym.Env` interface. The `lerobot-eval` CLI then runs evaluation uniformly across all benchmarks.
-
-## Existing benchmarks at a glance
-
-Before diving in, here is what is already integrated:
-

-Use `src/lerobot/envs/libero.py` and `src/lerobot/envs/metaworld.py` as reference implementations.
-
-## How it all fits together
-
-### Data flow
-
-During evaluation, data moves through four stages:
-
-```
-1. gym.Env  ──→  raw observations (numpy dicts)
-
-2. Preprocessing  ──→  standard LeRobot keys + task description
-   (preprocess_observation in envs/utils.py, env.call("task_description"))
-
-3. Processors  ──→  env-specific then policy-specific transforms
-   (env_preprocessor, policy_preprocessor)
-
-4. Policy  ──→  select_action()  ──→  action tensor
-   then reverse: policy_postprocessor → env_postprocessor → numpy action → env.step()
-```
-
-Most benchmarks only need to care about stage 1 (producing observations in the right format) and optionally stage 3 (if env-specific transforms are needed).
-
-### Environment structure
-
-`make_env()` returns a nested dict of vectorized environments:
-
-```python
-dict[str, dict[int, gym.vector.VectorEnv]]
-#    ^suite       ^task_id
-```
-
-A single-task env (e.g. PushT) looks like `{"pusht": {0: vec_env}}`.
-A multi-task benchmark (e.g. LIBERO) looks like `{"libero_spatial": {0: vec0, 1: vec1, ...}, ...}`.
-
-### How evaluation runs
-
-All benchmarks are evaluated the same way by `lerobot-eval`:
-
-1. `make_env()` builds the nested `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}` dict.
-2. `eval_policy_all()` iterates over every suite and task.
-3. For each task, it runs `n_episodes` rollouts via `rollout()`.
-4. Results are aggregated hierarchically: episode, task, suite, overall.
-5. Metrics include `pc_success` (success rate), `avg_sum_reward`, and `avg_max_reward`.
-
-The critical piece: your env must return `info["is_success"]` on every `step()` call. This is how the eval loop knows whether a task was completed.
-
-## What your environment must provide
-
-LeRobot does not enforce a strict observation schema. Instead it relies on a set of conventions that all benchmarks follow.
-
-### Env attributes
-
-Your `gym.Env` must set these attributes:
-
-| Attribute            | Type  | Why                                                  |
-| -------------------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
-| `_max_episode_steps` | `int` | `rollout()` uses this to cap episode length          |
-| `task_description`   | `str` | Passed to VLA policies as a language instruction     |
-| `task`               | `str` | Fallback identifier if `task_description` is not set |
-
-### Success reporting
-
-Your `step()` and `reset()` must include `"is_success"` in the `info` dict:
-
-```python
-info = {"is_success": True}   # or False
-return observation, reward, terminated, truncated, info
-```
-
-### Observations
-
-The simplest approach is to map your simulator's outputs to the standard keys that `preprocess_observation()` already understands. Do this inside your `gym.Env` (e.g. in a `_format_raw_obs()` helper):
-
-| Your env should output    | LeRobot maps it to         | What it is                            |
-| ------------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
-| `"pixels"` (single array) | `observation.image`        | Single camera image, HWC uint8        |
-| `"pixels"` (dict)         | `observation.images.<cam>` | Multiple cameras, each HWC uint8      |
-| `"agent_pos"`             | `observation.state`        | Proprioceptive state vector           |
-| `"environment_state"`     | `observation.env_state`    | Full environment state (e.g. PushT)   |
-| `"robot_state"`           | `observation.robot_state`  | Nested robot state dict (e.g. LIBERO) |
-
-If your simulator uses different key names, you have two options:
-
-1. **Recommended:** Rename them to the standard keys inside your `gym.Env` wrapper.
-2. **Alternative:** Write an env processor to transform observations after `preprocess_observation()` runs (see step 4 below).
-
-### Actions
-
-Actions are continuous numpy arrays in a `gym.spaces.Box`. The dimensionality depends on your benchmark (7 for LIBERO, 4 for Meta-World, etc.). Policies adapt to different action dimensions through their `input_features` / `output_features` config.
-
-### Feature declaration
-
-Each `EnvConfig` subclass declares two dicts that tell the policy what to expect:
-
-- `features` — maps feature names to `PolicyFeature(type, shape)` (e.g. action dim, image shape).
-- `features_map` — maps raw observation keys to LeRobot convention keys (e.g. `"agent_pos"` to `"observation.state"`).
-
-## Step by step
-
-<Tip>
-  At minimum, you need two files: a **gym.Env wrapper** and an **EnvConfig
-  subclass** with a `create_envs()` override. Everything else is optional or
-  documentation. No changes to `factory.py` are needed.
-</Tip>

-
-### 1. The gym.Env wrapper (`src/lerobot/envs/<benchmark>.py`)
-
-Create a `gym.Env` subclass that wraps the third-party simulator:
-
-```python
-class MyBenchmarkEnv(gym.Env):
-    metadata = {"render_modes": ["rgb_array"], "render_fps": <fps>}
-
-    def __init__(self, task_suite, task_id, ...):
-        super().__init__()
-        self.task = <task_name_string>
-        self.task_description = <natural_language_instruction>
-        self._max_episode_steps = <max_steps>
-        self.observation_space = spaces.Dict({...})
-        self.action_space = spaces.Box(low=..., high=..., shape=(...,), dtype=np.float32)
-
-    def reset(self, seed=None, **kwargs):
-        ...  # return (observation, info) — info must contain {"is_success": False}
-
-    def step(self, action: np.ndarray):
-        ...  # return (obs, reward, terminated, truncated, info) — info must contain {"is_success": <bool>}
-
-    def render(self):
-        ...  # return RGB image as numpy array
-
-    def close(self):
-        ...
-```
-
-**GPU-based simulators (e.g. MuJoCo with EGL rendering):** If your simulator allocates GPU/EGL contexts during `__init__`, defer that allocation to a `_ensure_env()` helper called on first `reset()`/`step()`. This avoids inheriting stale GPU handles when `AsyncVectorEnv` spawns worker processes. See `LiberoEnv._ensure_env()` for the pattern.
-
-Also provide a factory function that returns the nested dict structure:
-
-```python
-def create_mybenchmark_envs(
-    task: str,
-    n_envs: int,
-    gym_kwargs: dict | None = None,
-    env_cls: type | None = None,
-) -> dict[str, dict[int, Any]]:
-    """Create {suite_name: {task_id: VectorEnv}} for MyBenchmark."""
-    ...
-```
-
-See `create_libero_envs()` (multi-suite, multi-task) and `create_metaworld_envs()` (difficulty-grouped tasks) for reference.
-
-### 2. The config (`src/lerobot/envs/configs.py`)
-
-Register a config dataclass so users can select your benchmark with `--env.type=<name>`. Each config owns its environment creation and processor logic via two methods:
-
-- **`create_envs(n_envs, use_async_envs)`** — Returns `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}`. The base class default uses `gym.make()` for single-task envs. Multi-task benchmarks override this.
-- **`get_env_processors()`** — Returns `(preprocessor, postprocessor)`. The base class default returns identity (no-op) pipelines. Override if your benchmark needs observation/action transforms.
-
-```python
-@EnvConfig.register_subclass("<benchmark_name>")
-@dataclass
-class MyBenchmarkEnvConfig(EnvConfig):
-    task: str = "<default_task>"
-    fps: int = <fps>
-    obs_type: str = "pixels_agent_pos"
-
-    features: dict[str, PolicyFeature] = field(default_factory=lambda: {
-        ACTION: PolicyFeature(type=FeatureType.ACTION, shape=(<action_dim>,)),
-    })
-    features_map: dict[str, str] = field(default_factory=lambda: {
-        ACTION: ACTION,
-        "agent_pos": OBS_STATE,
-        "pixels": OBS_IMAGE,
-    })
-
-    def __post_init__(self):
-        ...  # populate features based on obs_type
-
-    @property
-    def gym_kwargs(self) -> dict:
-        return {"obs_type": self.obs_type, "render_mode": self.render_mode}
-
-    def create_envs(self, n_envs: int, use_async_envs: bool = True):
-        """Override for multi-task benchmarks or custom env creation."""
-        from lerobot.envs.<benchmark> import create_<benchmark>_envs
-        return create_<benchmark>_envs(task=self.task, n_envs=n_envs, ...)
-
-    def get_env_processors(self):
-        """Override if your benchmark needs observation/action transforms."""
-        from lerobot.processor import PolicyProcessorPipeline
-        from lerobot.processor.env_processor import MyBenchmarkProcessorStep
-        return (
-            PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[MyBenchmarkProcessorStep()]),
-            PolicyProcessorPipeline(steps=[]),
-        )
-```
-
-Key points:
-
-- The `register_subclass` name is what users pass on the CLI (`--env.type=<name>`).
-- `features` tells the policy what the environment produces.
-- `features_map` maps raw observation keys to LeRobot convention keys.
-- **No changes to `factory.py` needed** — the factory delegates to `cfg.create_envs()` and `cfg.get_env_processors()` automatically.
-
-### 3. Env processor (optional — `src/lerobot/processor/env_processor.py`)
-
-Only needed if your benchmark requires observation transforms beyond what `preprocess_observation()` handles (e.g. image flipping, coordinate conversion). Define the processor step here and return it from `get_env_processors()` in your config (see step 2):
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-@ProcessorStepRegistry.register(name="<benchmark>_processor")
-class MyBenchmarkProcessorStep(ObservationProcessorStep):
-    def _process_observation(self, observation):
-        processed = observation.copy()
-        # your transforms here
-        return processed
-
-    def transform_features(self, features):
-        return features  # update if shapes change
-
-    def observation(self, observation):
-        return self._process_observation(observation)
-```
-
-See `LiberoProcessorStep` for a full example (image rotation, quaternion-to-axis-angle conversion).
-
-### 4. Dependencies (`pyproject.toml`)
-
-Add a new optional-dependency group:
-
-```toml
-mybenchmark = ["my-benchmark-pkg==1.2.3", "lerobot[scipy-dep]"]
-```
-
-Pinning rules:
-
-- **Always pin** benchmark packages to exact versions for reproducibility (e.g. `metaworld==3.0.0`).
-- **Add platform markers** when needed (e.g. `; sys_platform == 'linux'`).
-- **Pin fragile transitive deps** if known (e.g. `gymnasium==1.1.0` for Meta-World).
-- **Document constraints** in your benchmark doc page.
-
-Users install with:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[mybenchmark]"
-```
-
-### 5. Documentation (`docs/source/<benchmark>.mdx`)
-
-Write a user-facing page following the template in the next section. See `docs/source/libero.mdx` and `docs/source/metaworld.mdx` for full examples.
-
-### 6. Table of contents (`docs/source/_toctree.yml`)
-
-Add your benchmark to the "Benchmarks" section:
-
-```yaml
-- sections:
-    - local: libero
-      title: LIBERO
-    - local: metaworld
-      title: Meta-World
-    - local: envhub_isaaclab_arena
-      title: NVIDIA IsaacLab Arena Environments
-    - local: <your_benchmark>
-      title: <Your Benchmark Name>
-  title: "Benchmarks"
-```
-
-## Verifying your integration
-
-After completing the steps above, confirm that everything works:
-
-1. **Install** — `pip install -e ".[mybenchmark]"` and verify the dependency group installs cleanly.
-2. **Smoke test env creation** — call `make_env()` with your config in Python, check that the returned dict has the expected `{suite: {task_id: VectorEnv}}` shape, and that `reset()` returns observations with the right keys.
-3. **Run a full eval** — `lerobot-eval --env.type=<name> --env.task=<task> --eval.n_episodes=1 --policy.path=<any_compatible_policy>` to exercise the full pipeline end-to-end. (`batch_size` defaults to auto-tuning based on CPU cores; pass `--eval.batch_size=1` to force a single environment.)
-4. **Check success detection** — verify that `info["is_success"]` flips to `True` when the task is actually completed. This is what the eval loop uses to compute success rates.
-
-## Writing a benchmark doc page
-
-Each benchmark `.mdx` page should include:
-
-- **Title and description** — 1-2 paragraphs on what the benchmark tests and why it matters.
-- **Links** — paper, GitHub repo, project website (if available).
-- **Overview image or GIF.**
-- **Available tasks** — table of task suites with counts and brief descriptions.
-- **Installation** — `pip install -e ".[<benchmark>]"` plus any extra steps (env vars, system packages).
-- **Evaluation** — recommended `lerobot-eval` command with `n_episodes` for reproducible results. `batch_size` defaults to auto; only specify it if needed. Include single-task and multi-task examples if applicable.
-- **Policy inputs and outputs** — observation keys with shapes, action space description.
-- **Recommended evaluation episodes** — how many episodes per task is standard.
-- **Training** — example `lerobot-train` command.
-- **Reproducing published results** — link to pretrained model, eval command, results table (if available).

-# Annotation Pipeline
-
-`lerobot-annotate` populates the two language columns introduced by the
-[Language Columns and Recipes](./language_and_recipes) page —
-`language_persistent` and `language_events` — directly into
-`data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet`.
-
-## What the pipeline produces
-
-A vocabulary-discovery phase derives a small canonical wording, then three
-modules write into a per-episode staging tree, then a single writer
-rewrites the data shards in place:
-
-| Style / atom                                | Column                | Module         |
-| ------------------------------------------- | --------------------- | -------------- |
-| `subtask` (Pi0.7-style "how, not what")     | `language_persistent` | `plan`         |
-| `plan` (initial + refresh on interjection)  | `language_persistent` | `plan`         |
-| `memory` (MEM-style compression)            | `language_persistent` | `plan`         |
-| `task_aug` (rephrasings of canonical task)  | `language_persistent` | `plan`         |
-| `interjection`                              | `language_events`     | `interjections`|
-| speech tool-call atom (`style=null`, `say`) | `language_events`     | `interjections`|
-| `vqa` (user / assistant pair)               | `language_events`     | `vqa`          |
-
-The `plan` module is constrained to a **canonical vocabulary** discovered
-once per dataset by the `vocabulary` module (phase 0). It watches a few
-sample episode videos (`--vocabulary.sample_episodes`, default `3`) and
-asks the VLM to derive a small set of imperative subtask labels and
-first-person memory milestones that recur across the demos. The VLM
-picks the right number of entries itself based on what it sees in the
-clips — short pick-and-place demos get ~6 subtask labels, longer
-multi-step recipes get more. The result lands at
-`meta/canonical_vocabulary.json` (human-readable / hand-editable) and
-is reused on every subsequent run. The `plan` module then constrains
-both subtask + memory generation to those exact strings — the
-downstream low-level policy sees a small, repeatable target
-distribution instead of thousands of LLM paraphrases. Disable with
-`--vocabulary.enabled=False` to fall back to free-form generation.
-
-The writer does **not** add a `tools` column to the parquet — the tool
-catalog lives at `meta/info.json["tools"]` instead (see
-[Tools](./tools)). After every annotation run the pipeline ensures the
-canonical `say` schema is present in that list, preserving any tools the
-user pre-declared.
-
-If you want to declare additional tools for a dataset before annotation
-runs, edit `meta/info.json["tools"]` directly — the pipeline preserves
-anything already there. Implementations of those tools live under
-`src/lerobot/tools/`; one file per tool, registered via
-`TOOL_REGISTRY`. See the [Tools](./tools) doc for the authoring guide.
-
-## Running locally
-
-Install the extra and invoke the console script. Episode-level
-concurrency comes from `--executor.episode_parallelism` (default 16);
-that is the only knob the in-process executor exposes.
-
-```bash
-uv sync --extra annotations
-uv run lerobot-annotate \
-  --root=/path/to/dataset \
-  --vlm.model_id=Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct
-```
-
-The pipeline attaches actual camera footage to every `plan` /
-`interjections` / `vqa` prompt by default, decoded from the dataset's
-first `observation.images.*` stream. Override with
-`--vlm.camera_key=observation.images.<name>` to pin a specific
-viewpoint. Datasets with no video tracks fall back to text-only prompts
-automatically.
-
-**The `plan` module sees the whole episode as one video block.** Subtask
-decomposition gets a `{"type":"video", "video":[<frames>]}` block
-covering the entire demonstration; Qwen-VL pools temporally on its own
-and decides where to cut. There is no keyframe stride or count knob —
-`--plan.max_video_frames` (default 128) only caps the frames packed
-into the video block as a model-capacity bound. The `interjections`
-module attaches a short window of frames straddling the interjection
-timestamp. The `vqa` module grounds each VQA pair on a single frame —
-its `--vqa.K` knob sets how many consecutive frames each emission tick
-anchors, and every anchored frame gets its own VQA pair on that one
-frame (there is no per-pair frame window).
-
-## Running on Hugging Face Jobs
-
-Distributed annotation is delegated to
-[Hugging Face Jobs](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/en/jobs). The repo
-ships a launcher script you copy and edit for your dataset:
-
-```bash
-HF_TOKEN=hf_... uv run python examples/annotations/run_hf_job.py
-```
-
-[`examples/annotations/run_hf_job.py`](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot/blob/main/examples/annotations/run_hf_job.py)
-spawns one `h200x2` job that:
-
-1. installs the branch under test plus the annotation extras,
-2. boots two vllm servers (one per GPU) for the chosen model,
-3. runs the `plan` / `interjections` / `vqa` modules across the dataset
-   via `lerobot-annotate`,
-4. uploads the annotated dataset to `--push_to_hub`.
-
-To target a different dataset, model, or hub repo, edit the `CMD` block
-inside the script — every flag in there maps directly onto a CLI flag of
-`lerobot-annotate` (see `lerobot-annotate --help` for the full list).
-
-## Style-to-recipe consumer mapping
-
-The pipeline's outputs are designed to be consumed by recipes (see
-[Language Columns and Recipes](./language_and_recipes)) — typically:
-
-- low-level / high-level / memory-update branches consume
-  `subtask`/`plan`/`memory` from `language_persistent`.
-- An interjection-response branch consumes `interjection` events plus
-  the paired speech atom (merged into one assistant target turn via
-  `tool_calls_from`) and the same-timestamp `plan` refresh.
-- A VQA branch consumes the `(vqa, user)` and `(vqa, assistant)` pairs
-  from `language_events`.
-
-## Why the design splits state from events
-
-Two things drive the scope:
-
-1. **Persistent state vs exact-event split.** Persistent rows
-   (`subtask`, `plan`, `memory`) broadcast per episode and answer "what
-   state is in force at this frame?". Event rows (`interjection`, `vqa`,
-   speech) only appear on the exact frame whose timestamp matches the
-   emission. The pipeline writes timestamps taken straight from the
-   source parquet — no floating-point recomputation.
-2. **One Qwen-VL pass.** All three modules share a single VLM client
-   (vLLM if available, transformers fallback) so the cost is one model
-   load per dataset, not three.
-
-## Module independence and staged reruns
-
-Each module writes its raw output to
-`<root>/.annotate_staging/episode_{N:06d}/<module>.jsonl`. That makes
-prompt iteration cheap — re-running one module overwrites only its own
-JSONL file before the writer composes the final parquet. Modules can be
-disabled via `--plan.enabled=false` (and likewise `--interjections.enabled`
-/ `--vqa.enabled`) to
-test them in isolation.
-
-## Validation/report checks before final write
-
-Before the writer runs, `StagingValidator` checks:
-
-- exact frame-timestamp alignment for every event row;
-- no orphan speech / interjection pairs;
-- `plan` is refreshed at every interjection timestamp;
-- `memory` rows fall on subtask boundaries (warning, not error);
-- VQA assistant `content` parses as JSON in one of the
-  bbox / keypoint / count / attribute / spatial shapes;
-- every row routes to the column dictated by `column_for_style(style)`.
-
-Errors abort the writer (`--skip_validation=true` overrides for debugging).

-`--seed` (default 1729) feeds the per-episode RNGs that select interjection
-timestamps and VQA question types. Combined with the deterministic prompt
-templates checked into `prompts/`, two runs at the same seed against the

-artifacts. Prompt edits are recorded by file hash; future tooling can pin
-expected `(seed, prompt_hash)` pairs into the dataset card.

+# Using Subtasks in LeRobot Datasets
+
+Subtask support in robotics datasets has proven effective in improving robot reasoning and understanding. Subtasks are particularly useful for:
+
+- **Hierarchical policies**: Building policies that include subtask predictions to visualize robot reasoning in real time
+- **Reward modeling**: Helping reward models understand task progression (e.g., SARM-style stage-aware reward models)
+- **Task decomposition**: Breaking down complex manipulation tasks into atomic, interpretable steps
+
+LeRobotDataset now supports subtasks as part of its dataset structure, alongside tasks.
+
+## What are Subtasks?
+
+While a **task** describes the overall goal (e.g., "Pick up the apple and place it in the basket"), **subtasks** break down the execution into finer-grained steps:
+
+1. "Approach the apple"
+2. "Grasp the apple"
+3. "Lift the apple"
+4. "Move to basket"
+5. "Release the apple"
+
+Each frame in the dataset can be annotated with its corresponding subtask, enabling models to learn and predict these intermediate stages.
+

+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+Subtask information is stored in the dataset metadata:
+
+```
+my-dataset/
+├── data/
+│   └── ...
+├── meta/
+│   ├── info.json
+│   ├── stats.json
+│   ├── tasks.parquet
+│   ├── subtasks.parquet      # Subtask index → subtask string mapping
+│   └── episodes/
+│       └── ...
+└── videos/
+    └── ...
+```
+
+### Subtasks Parquet File
+
+The `meta/subtasks.parquet` file maps subtask indices to their natural language descriptions:
+
+| subtask_index | subtask (index column) |
+| ------------- | ---------------------- |
+| 0             | "Approach the apple"   |
+| 1             | "Grasp the apple"      |
+| 2             | "Lift the apple"       |
+| ...           | ...                    |
+
+### Frame-Level Annotations
+
+Each frame in the dataset can include a `subtask_index` field that references the subtasks parquet file:
+
+```python
+# Example frame data in the parquet file
+{
+    "index": 42,
+    "timestamp": 1.4,
+    "episode_index": 0,
+    "task_index": 0,
+    "subtask_index": 2,  # References "Lift the apple"
+    "observation.state": [...],
+    "action": [...],
+}
+```
+
+## Annotating Datasets with Subtasks
+
+We provide a HuggingFace Space for easily annotating any LeRobotDataset with subtasks:
+
+**[https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/annotate](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lerobot/annotate)**
+
+After completing your annotation:
+
+1. Click "Push to Hub" to upload your annotated dataset
+2. You can also run the annotation space locally by following the instructions at [github.com/huggingface/lerobot-annotate](https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot-annotate)
+
+## Loading Datasets with Subtasks
+
+When you load a dataset with subtask annotations, the subtask information is automatically available:
+
+```python
+from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
+
+# Load a dataset with subtask annotations
+dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
+
+# Access a sample
+sample = dataset[100]
+
+# The sample includes both task and subtask information
+print(sample["task"])        # "Collect the fruit"
+print(sample["subtask"])     # "Grasp the apple"
+print(sample["task_index"])  # tensor(0)
+print(sample["subtask_index"])  # tensor(2)
+```
+
+### Checking for Subtask Support
+
+You can check if a dataset has subtask annotations:
+
+```python
+# Check if subtasks are available
+has_subtasks = (
+    "subtask_index" in dataset.features
+    and dataset.meta.subtasks is not None
+)
+
+if has_subtasks:
+    print(f"Dataset has {len(dataset.meta.subtasks)} unique subtasks")
+    print("Subtasks:", list(dataset.meta.subtasks.index))
+```
+
+## Using Subtasks for Training
+
+### With the Tokenizer Processor
+
+The `TokenizerProcessor` automatically handles subtask tokenization for Vision-Language Action (VLA) models:
+
+```python
+from lerobot.processor.tokenizer_processor import TokenizerProcessor
+from lerobot.processor.pipeline import ProcessorPipeline
+
+# Create a tokenizer processor
+tokenizer_processor = TokenizerProcessor(
+    tokenizer_name_or_path="google/paligemma-3b-pt-224",
+    padding="max_length",
+    max_length=64,
+)
+
+# The processor will automatically tokenize subtasks if present in the batch
+# and add them to the observation under:
+# - "observation.subtask.tokens"
+# - "observation.subtask.attention_mask"
+```
+
+When subtasks are available in the batch, the tokenizer processor adds:
+
+- `observation.subtask.tokens`: Tokenized subtask text
+- `observation.subtask.attention_mask`: Attention mask for the subtask tokens
+
+### DataLoader with Subtasks
+
+```python
+import torch
+from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
+
+dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
+
+dataloader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(
+    dataset,
+    batch_size=16,
+    shuffle=True,
+)
+
+for batch in dataloader:
+    # Access subtask information in the batch
+    subtasks = batch["subtask"]  # List of subtask strings
+    subtask_indices = batch["subtask_index"]  # Tensor of subtask indices
+
+    # Use for training hierarchical policies or reward models
+    print(f"Batch subtasks: {set(subtasks)}")
+```
+
+## Example Datasets with Subtask Annotations
+
+Try loading a dataset with subtask annotations:
+
+```python
+from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
+
+# Example dataset with subtask annotations
+dataset = LeRobotDataset("jadechoghari/collect-fruit-annotated")
+
+# Explore the subtasks
+print("Available subtasks:")
+for subtask_name in dataset.meta.subtasks.index:
+    print(f"  - {subtask_name}")
+
+# Get subtask distribution
+subtask_counts = {}
+for i in range(len(dataset)):
+    sample = dataset[i]
+    subtask = sample["subtask"]
+    subtask_counts[subtask] = subtask_counts.get(subtask, 0) + 1
+
+print("\nSubtask distribution:")
+for subtask, count in sorted(subtask_counts.items(), key=lambda x: -x[1]):
+    print(f"  {subtask}: {count} frames")
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### 1. Hierarchical Policy Training
+
+Train policies that predict both actions and current subtask:
+
+```python
+class HierarchicalPolicy(nn.Module):
+    def __init__(self, num_subtasks):
+        super().__init__()
+        self.action_head = nn.Linear(hidden_dim, action_dim)
+        self.subtask_head = nn.Linear(hidden_dim, num_subtasks)
+
+    def forward(self, observations):
+        features = self.encoder(observations)
+        actions = self.action_head(features)
+        subtask_logits = self.subtask_head(features)
+        return actions, subtask_logits
+```
+
+### 2. Stage-Aware Reward Modeling (SARM)
+
+Build reward models that understand task progression:
+
+```python
+# SARM predicts:
+# - Stage: Which subtask is being executed (discrete)
+# - Progress: How far along the subtask (continuous 0-1)
+
+class SARMRewardModel(nn.Module):
+    def forward(self, observations):
+        features = self.encoder(observations)
+        stage_logits = self.stage_classifier(features)
+        progress = self.progress_regressor(features)
+        return stage_logits, progress
+```
+
+### 3. Progress Visualization
+
+Monitor robot execution by tracking subtask progression:
+
+```python
+def visualize_execution(model, observations):
+    for t, obs in enumerate(observations):
+        action, subtask_logits = model(obs)
+        predicted_subtask = subtask_names[subtask_logits.argmax()]
+        print(f"t={t}: Executing '{predicted_subtask}'")
+```

-# EO-1
-
-EO-1 is a **Vision-Language-Action policy for robot control**. The LeRobot implementation integrates EO-1 with the standard LeRobot training, evaluation, processor interface.
-
-## Model Overview
-
-EO-1 uses a Qwen2.5-VL backbone for vision-language understanding and adds a continuous flow-matching action head for robot control. The policy formats each robot-control sample as a multimodal conversation: camera images are passed to Qwen2.5-VL, the robot state is represented with EO-1 state tokens, and the future action chunk is represented with EO-1 action tokens.
-
-<img
-  src="https://huggingface.co/datasets/HaomingSong/lerobot-documentation-images/resolve/main/lerobot/eo_pipeline.png"
-  alt="An overview of EO-1"
-  width="85%"
-/>
-
-During training, EO-1 learns to denoise continuous action chunks at the action-token positions. During inference, it samples an action chunk, returns continuous actions, and executes `n_action_steps` from the chunk before sampling again.
-
-### What the LeRobot Integration Covers
-
-- Standard `policy.type=eo1` configuration through LeRobot
-- Qwen2.5-VL image and text preprocessing through policy processors
-- Continuous flow-matching action prediction
-- Checkpoint save/load through LeRobot policy APIs
-- Training with `lerobot-train` and evaluation with `lerobot-eval`
-
-The broader EO-1 project also includes interleaved vision-text-action pretraining and multimodal reasoning workflows. This page focuses on the LeRobot robot-control policy path.
-
-## Installation Requirements
-
-1. Install LeRobot by following the [Installation Guide](./installation).
-2. Install EO-1 dependencies by running:
-
-   ```bash
-   pip install -e ".[eo1]"
-   ```
-
-3. If you want to train or evaluate on LIBERO, install the LIBERO dependencies too:
-
-   ```bash
-   pip install -e ".[eo1,libero]"
-   ```
-
-EO-1 can use the standard PyTorch scaled-dot-product attention backend through `policy.attn_implementation=sdpa`. If your environment has a compatible `flash_attn` installation, you can request `policy.attn_implementation=flash_attention_2`.
-
-## Data Requirements
-
-EO-1 expects a LeRobot dataset with:
-
-- At least one visual observation, for example `observation.images.image`
-- `observation.state`
-- `action`
-- A language task instruction through the dataset `task` field
-
-If your dataset uses different observation names, use `rename_map` to align them with the names expected by your training or evaluation setup.
-
-## Usage
-
-To use EO-1 in a LeRobot configuration, specify the policy type as:
-
-```python
-policy.type=eo1
-```
-
-By default, a new EO-1 policy initializes its backbone from:
-
-```python
-policy.vlm_base=Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-3B-Instruct
-```
-
-Once a LeRobot-format EO-1 checkpoint is available, load it with:
-
-```python
-policy.path=your-org/your-eo1-checkpoint
-```
-
-## Training
-
-### Training Command Example
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your_org/your_dataset \
-  --policy.type=eo1 \

-## Evaluation
-
-EO-1 can be evaluated through `lerobot-eval` once you have a LeRobot-format checkpoint:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=your-org/your-eo1-checkpoint \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  --env.task=libero_object \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=20
-```
-
-For datasets or environments whose camera names differ from the checkpoint configuration, pass a `rename_map`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=your-org/your-eo1-checkpoint \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  --env.task=libero_object \
-  --rename_map='{"observation.images.image2":"observation.images.wrist_image"}'
-```
-
-## Configuration Notes
-
-### Image Processing
-
-EO-1 uses the Qwen2.5-VL processor. The `policy.image_min_pixels` and `policy.image_max_pixels` settings control the image resizing bounds before the visual tokens are passed into the backbone.
-
-### State and Action Dimensions
-
-The policy pads state and action vectors to `policy.max_state_dim` and `policy.max_action_dim` before the EO-1 flow head. Predictions are cropped back to the original action dimension before being returned by the policy.
-
-### Attention Backend
-
-Use `policy.attn_implementation=sdpa` for a portable setup. Use `flash_attention_2` only when `flash_attn` is installed and compatible with your environment.

-# Human-In-the-Loop Data Collection
-
-Human-In-the-Loop (HIL) data collection lets you improve a trained policy by deploying it on a real robot while a human operator monitors and intervenes when needed. The intervention data (recovery movements and corrections) is recorded alongside autonomous segments, producing a richer training dataset that teaches the policy how to handle failures.
-
----
-
-## Why Human-In-the-Loop?
-
-Standard behavioral cloning trains policies on successful demonstrations only. During deployment, small errors can compound and push the robot into states never seen during training (distribution shift). HIL data collection addresses this by:
-
-- Running the trained policy on the real robot
-- Having a human intervene when the robot is about to fail
-- Recording the human's recovery and correction as training data
-- Fine-tuning the policy on the combined dataset
-
-This produces a policy that not only knows how to perform the task, but also how to recover when things go wrong.
-
----
-
-## How It Works
-
-During a HIL session, the human operator follows this loop within each episode:
-
-1. **Watch** the policy run autonomously
-2. **Pause** when failure is imminent, the robot holds its position
-3. **Take control** and teleoperate the robot back to a good state (recovery), then correct the behavior
-4. **Return control to the policy**, the policy resumes autonomous execution
-5. Repeat steps 2–4 as many times as needed during the episode
-6. **End the episode** when the task is complete, save and move on to the next rollout
-
-Both autonomous and human-controlled segments are recorded. The policy and human can alternate control multiple times within a single episode, and the episode continues from the current state after each handoff (no reset required just because intervention happened). This captures autonomous execution, recovery, and correction in one continuous trajectory. After collection, the combined dataset (original demonstrations + HIL data) is used to fine-tune the policy.
-
-This process can be repeated iteratively: deploy, collect, fine-tune, repeat. Each round targets the current policy's failure modes.
-
-```

-## Hardware Requirements
-
-### Teleoperator Requirements
-
-The `lerobot-rollout --strategy.type=dagger` mode requires **teleoperators with active motors** that can:
-
-- Enable/disable torque programmatically
-- Move to target positions (to mirror the robot state when pausing)
-
-**Compatible teleoperators:**
-
-- `openarm_mini` - OpenArm Mini
-- `so_leader` - SO100 / SO101 leader arm
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> The provided commands default to `bi_openarm_follower` + `openarm_mini`.
-> `so_follower` + `so_leader` configs are also registered and can be used via CLI flags.
-
----
-
-## Script
-
-Use `lerobot-rollout` with `--strategy.type=dagger` for HIL data collection. Select the inference backend with `--inference.type=sync|rtc`:
-
-| Mode                     | Flag                   | Models                |
-| ------------------------ | ---------------------- | --------------------- |
-| Standard (default)       | _(no flag needed)_     | ACT, Diffusion Policy |
-| Real-Time Chunking (RTC) | `--inference.type=rtc` | Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA   |
-
----
-
-## Step-by-Step Guide
-
-### Step 1: Pre-train a Base Policy
-
-First, train a policy on your demonstration dataset:
-
-```bash
-python src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_train.py \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/demo-dataset \
-    --policy.type=pi0 \
-    --output_dir=outputs/pretrain \
-    --batch_size=32 \
-    --steps=50000
-```
-
-### Step 2: Collect HIL Data
-
-**Standard inference (ACT, Diffusion Policy):**
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout --strategy.type=dagger \
-    --robot.type=bi_openarm_follower \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.port=can1 \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.side=left \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.port=can0 \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.side=right \
-    --robot.cameras='{left_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video0", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, right_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video4", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, base: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video2", width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}' \
-    --teleop.type=openarm_mini \
-    --teleop.port_left=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --teleop.port_right=/dev/ttyACM1 \
-    --policy.path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/rollout_hil_dataset \
-    --dataset.single_task="Fold the T-shirt properly" \
-    --dataset.fps=30 \
-    --strategy.num_episodes=50 \
-    --interpolation_multiplier=2
-```
-
-**With RTC for large models (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA):**
-
-For models with high inference latency, enable RTC for smooth execution:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout --strategy.type=dagger \
-    --inference.type=rtc \
-    --inference.rtc.execution_horizon=20 \
-    --inference.rtc.max_guidance_weight=5.0 \
-    --inference.rtc.prefix_attention_schedule=LINEAR \
-    --robot.type=bi_openarm_follower \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.port=can1 \
-    --robot.left_arm_config.side=left \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.port=can0 \
-    --robot.right_arm_config.side=right \
-    --robot.cameras='{left_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video0", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, right_wrist: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video4", width: 1280, height: 720, fps: 30}, base: {type: opencv, index_or_path: "/dev/video2", width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}' \
-    --teleop.type=openarm_mini \
-    --teleop.port_left=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --teleop.port_right=/dev/ttyACM1 \
-    --policy.path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/rollout_hil_rtc_dataset \
-    --dataset.single_task="Fold the T-shirt properly" \
-    --dataset.fps=30 \
-    --strategy.num_episodes=50 \
-    --interpolation_multiplier=3
-```
-
-**Controls (Conceptual):**
-
-The interaction model is:
-
-- **Pause input**: pause autonomous policy execution
-- **Takeover input**: transfer control to the human operator and record intervention data
-- **Return-to-policy input**: hand control back to the policy and continue the same episode
-- **Episode control inputs**: save/re-record/stop/reset as needed
-
-Exact key/pedal bindings can differ across scripts and hardware integrations. Use each script's printed controls as the source of truth for the concrete mapping on your setup.
-
-**The HIL Protocol:**
-
-1. Watch the policy run autonomously (teleop is idle/free)
-2. When you see imminent failure, trigger the **pause input**
-   - Policy stops
-   - Teleoperator moves to match robot position (torque enabled)
-   - No frames recorded during pause
-3. Trigger the **takeover input** to take control
-   - Teleoperator torque disabled, free to move
-   - **Recovery**: Teleoperate the robot back to a good state
-   - **Correction**: Correct the behavior
-   - All movements are recorded
-4. Trigger the **return-to-policy input**
-   - Policy resumes autonomous execution from the current state
-   - You can intervene again at any time (repeat steps 2–4)
-5. End and save the episode when the task is complete (or episode time limit is reached)
-6. **Reset**: Teleop moves to robot position, you can move the robot to the starting position
-7. Start the next episode
-
-**Foot Pedal Setup (Linux):**
-
-If using a USB foot pedal (PCsensor FootSwitch), ensure access:
-
-```bash
-sudo setfacl -m u:$USER:rw /dev/input/by-id/usb-PCsensor_FootSwitch-event-kbd
-```
-
-### Step 3: Fine-tune the Policy
-
-Fine-tune on the **combined** dataset (`demo-dataset` + `hil-dataset` merged together):
-
-```bash
-python src/lerobot/scripts/lerobot_train.py \
-    --dataset.repo_id=your-username/hil-dataset \
-    --policy.type=pi0 \
-    --policy.pretrained_path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --output_dir=outputs/hil_finetune \
-    --steps=20000
-```
-
-Then deploy the fine-tuned policy and repeat from Step 2 to target its remaining failure modes.

-## Tips for Effective HIL Collection
-
-### When to Intervene
-
-Intervene when you see:
-
-- Robot about to make an irreversible mistake
-- Robot hesitating or showing uncertain behavior
-- Robot deviating from the expected trajectory
-
-### Recovery: Teleoperating Back to a Good State
-
-During recovery, teleoperate the robot back to a state where:
-
-- The robot is in a familiar, in-distribution configuration
-- The current subtask can still be completed
-- The recovery trajectory itself is informative training data
-
-### Quality of Corrections
-
-During correction:
-
-- Provide **confident, clean** trajectories
-- Complete the current subtask fully
-- Don't overcorrect or add unnecessary movements
-
----
-
-## Related Work
-
-This HIL data collection approach builds on ideas from interactive imitation learning:
-
-- **DAgger** (Ross et al., 2011) introduced the core idea: instead of only training on expert demonstrations, query the expert for corrections on states the _learner_ visits. This breaks the compounding-error cycle of standard behavioral cloning by iteratively collecting on-policy data.
-
-- **HG-DAgger** (Kelly et al., 2019) made this practical for robotics: a human expert monitors the robot and only intervenes when needed, rather than labeling every state. The gating between autonomous and human control is exactly the pause → takeover → return-to-policy loop used in the scripts here.
-
-- **RaC** (Hu et al., 2025) scales this loop to long-horizon tasks by explicitly decomposing interventions into **recovery** (teleoperating back to a good state) and **correction** (demonstrating the right behavior from there). This decomposition is the protocol followed by the DAgger strategy in `lerobot-rollout`.
-
-- **π0.6/RECAP** (Physical Intelligence, 2025) applies the same iterative collect-and-finetune loop at scale with VLA models, showing that even large pretrained policies benefit substantially from targeted human corrections on their own failure modes. π0.6 is trained using RECAP.

-The `--strategy.type` flag selects the execution mode:
+As you can see, it's almost the same command as previously used to record your training dataset. Two things changed:
 
-- `base`: Autonomous rollout with no data recording (useful for quick evaluation)
-- `sentry`: Continuous recording with auto-upload (useful for large-scale evaluation)
-- `highlight`: Ring buffer recording with keystroke save (useful for capturing interesting events)
-- `dagger`: Human-in-the-loop data collection (see [HIL Data Collection](./hil_data_collection))
-
-All strategies support `--inference.type=rtc` for smooth execution with slow VLA models (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA).
+1. There is an additional `--control.policy.path` argument which indicates the path to your policy checkpoint with (e.g. `outputs/train/eval_act_so101_test/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model`). You can also use the model repository if you uploaded a model checkpoint to the hub (e.g. `${HF_USER}/act_so101_test`).
+2. The name of dataset begins by `eval` to reflect that you are running inference (e.g. `${HF_USER}/eval_act_so101_test`).

-# Policy Deployment (lerobot-rollout)
-
-`lerobot-rollout` is the single CLI for deploying trained policies on real robots. It supports multiple execution strategies and inference backends, from quick evaluation to continuous recording and human-in-the-loop data collection.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-No extra dependencies are needed beyond your robot and policy extras.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=base \
-    --policy.path=lerobot/act_koch_real \
-    --robot.type=koch_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --task="pick up cube" \
-    --duration=30
-```
-
-This runs the policy for 30 seconds with no recording.
-
----
-
-## Strategies
-
-Select a strategy with `--strategy.type=<name>`. Each strategy defines a different control loop with its own recording and interaction semantics.
-
-### Base (`--strategy.type=base`)
-
-Autonomous policy execution with no data recording. Use this for quick evaluation, demos, or when you only need to observe the robot.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=base \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USER}/my_policy \
-    --robot.type=so100_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-    --task="Put lego brick into the box" \
-    --duration=60
-```
-
-| Flag             | Description                                            |
-| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
-| `--duration`     | Run time in seconds (0 = infinite)                     |
-| `--task`         | Task description passed to the policy                  |
-| `--display_data` | Stream observations/actions to Rerun for visualization |
-
-### Sentry (`--strategy.type=sentry`)
-
-Continuous autonomous recording with periodic upload to the Hugging Face Hub. Episode boundaries are auto-computed from camera resolution and FPS so each saved episode produces a complete video file, keeping uploads efficient.
-
-Policy state (hidden state, RTC queue) persists across episode boundaries: the robot does not reset between episodes.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=sentry \
-    --strategy.upload_every_n_episodes=5 \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USER}/my_policy \
-    --robot.type=so100_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-    --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/rollout_eval_data \
-    --dataset.single_task="Put lego brick into the box" \
-    --duration=3600
-```
-
-| Flag                                   | Description                                                 |
-| -------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `--strategy.upload_every_n_episodes`   | Push to Hub every N episodes (default: 5)                   |
-| `--strategy.target_video_file_size_mb` | Target video file size for episode rotation (default: auto) |
-| `--dataset.repo_id`                    | **Required.** Hub repository for the recorded dataset       |
-| `--dataset.push_to_hub`                | Whether to push to Hub on teardown (default: true)          |
-
-### Highlight (`--strategy.type=highlight`)
-
-Autonomous rollout with on-demand recording via a memory-bounded ring buffer. The robot runs continuously while the buffer captures the last N seconds of telemetry. Press the save key to flush the buffer and start live recording; press it again to save the episode.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=highlight \
-    --strategy.ring_buffer_seconds=30 \
-    --strategy.save_key=s \
-    --strategy.push_key=h \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USER}/my_policy \
-    --robot.type=koch_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/rollout_highlight_data \
-    --dataset.single_task="Pick up the red cube"
-```

-
-### DAgger (`--strategy.type=dagger`)
-
-Human-in-the-loop data collection. Alternates between autonomous policy execution and human intervention via a teleoperator. Intervention frames are tagged with `intervention=True`. Requires a teleoperator (`--teleop.type`).
-
-See the [Human-In-the-Loop Data Collection](./hil_data_collection) guide for a detailed walkthrough.
-
-**Corrections-only mode** (default): Only human correction windows are recorded. Each correction becomes one episode.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=dagger \
-    --strategy.num_episodes=20 \
-    --policy.path=outputs/pretrain/checkpoints/last/pretrained_model \
-    --robot.type=bi_openarm_follower \
-    --teleop.type=openarm_mini \
-    --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/rollout_hil_data \
-    --dataset.single_task="Fold the T-shirt"
-```
-
-**Continuous recording mode** (`--strategy.record_autonomous=true`): Both autonomous and correction frames are recorded with time-based episode rotation (same as Sentry).
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=dagger \
-    --strategy.record_autonomous=true \
-    --strategy.num_episodes=50 \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USER}/my_policy \

-    --teleop.port=/dev/ttyACM1 \
-    --dataset.repo_id=${HF_USER}/rollout_dagger_data \
-    --dataset.single_task="Grasp the block"
-```

-| `Space` | Pause / resume policy execution             |
-| `Tab`   | Start / stop human correction               |
-| `Enter` | Push dataset to Hub (corrections-only mode) |
-| `ESC`   | Stop the session                            |
-
-Foot pedal input is also supported via `--strategy.input_device=pedal`. Configure pedal codes with `--strategy.pedal.*` flags.
-
-| Flag                                 | Description                                             |
-| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `--strategy.num_episodes`            | Number of correction episodes to record (default: 10)   |
-| `--strategy.record_autonomous`       | Record autonomous frames too (default: false)           |
-| `--strategy.upload_every_n_episodes` | Push to Hub every N episodes (default: 5)               |
-| `--strategy.input_device`            | Input device: `keyboard` or `pedal` (default: keyboard) |
-| `--teleop.type`                      | **Required.** Teleoperator type                         |

-
-## Inference Backends
-
-Select a backend with `--inference.type=<name>`. All strategies work with both backends.
-
-### Sync (default)
-
-One policy call per control tick. The main loop blocks until the action is computed.
-
-Works with all policies. No extra flags needed.
-
-### Real-Time Chunking (`--inference.type=rtc`)
-
-A background thread produces action chunks asynchronously. The main control loop polls for the next ready action while the policy computes the next chunk in parallel.
-
-Use RTC with large, slow VLA models (Pi0, Pi0.5, SmolVLA) for smooth, continuous motion despite high inference latency.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-rollout \
-    --strategy.type=base \
-    --inference.type=rtc \
-    --inference.rtc.execution_horizon=10 \
-    --inference.rtc.max_guidance_weight=10.0 \
-    --policy.path=${HF_USER}/pi0_policy \
-    --robot.type=so100_follower \
-    --robot.port=/dev/ttyACM0 \
-    --robot.cameras="{ front: {type: opencv, index_or_path: 0, width: 640, height: 480, fps: 30}}" \
-    --task="Pick up the cube" \
-    --duration=60 \
-    --device=cuda
-```

-| Flag                                        | Description                                                    |
-| ------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `--inference.rtc.execution_horizon`         | Steps to blend with previous chunk (default: varies by policy) |
-| `--inference.rtc.max_guidance_weight`       | Consistency enforcement strength (default: varies by policy)   |
-| `--inference.rtc.prefix_attention_schedule` | Blend schedule: `LINEAR`, `EXP`, `ONES`, `ZEROS`               |
-| `--inference.queue_threshold`               | Max queue size before backpressure (default: 30)               |
-
-See the [Real-Time Chunking](./rtc) guide for details on tuning RTC parameters.

-## Programmatic Usage
-
-For custom deployments (e.g. with kinematics processors), use the rollout module API directly:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.rollout import BaseStrategyConfig, RolloutConfig, build_rollout_context
-from lerobot.rollout.inference import SyncInferenceConfig
-from lerobot.rollout.strategies import BaseStrategy
-from lerobot.utils.process import ProcessSignalHandler
-
-cfg = RolloutConfig(
-    robot=my_robot_config,
-    policy=my_policy_config,
-    strategy=BaseStrategyConfig(),
-    inference=SyncInferenceConfig(),
-    fps=30,
-    duration=60,
-    task="my task",
-)
-
-signal_handler = ProcessSignalHandler(use_threads=True)
-ctx = build_rollout_context(
-    cfg,
-    signal_handler.shutdown_event,
-    robot_action_processor=my_custom_action_processor,       # optional
-    robot_observation_processor=my_custom_obs_processor,     # optional
-)
-
-strategy = BaseStrategy(cfg.strategy)
-try:
-    strategy.setup(ctx)
-    strategy.run(ctx)
-finally:
-    strategy.teardown(ctx)
-```
-
-See `examples/so100_to_so100_EE/rollout.py` and `examples/phone_to_so100/rollout.py` for full examples with kinematics processors.

-### Install `ffmpeg` (for video decoding)
-
-LeRobot uses [TorchCodec](https://github.com/meta-pytorch/torchcodec) for video decoding by default, which requires `ffmpeg`.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> **Platform support:** TorchCodec is **not available** on macOS Intel (x86_64), Linux ARM (aarch64, arm64, armv7l), or Windows with PyTorch < 2.8. On these platforms, LeRobot automatically falls back to `pyav` — so you do not need to install `ffmpeg` and can skip to Step 3.
-
-If your platform supports TorchCodec, install `ffmpeg` using one of the methods below:
-
-<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->
-
-<hfoptions id="install_ffmpeg">
-<hfoption id="conda (any PyTorch version)">
-
-Install `ffmpeg` in your conda environment. This works with **all PyTorch versions** and is **required for PyTorch < 2.10**:
-
-```bash
-conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge
-```
-
-> [!TIP]
-> This usually installs `ffmpeg 8.X` with the `libsvtav1` encoder. If you run into issues (e.g. `libsvtav1` missing — check with `ffmpeg -encoders` — or a version mismatch with `torchcodec`), you can explicitly install `ffmpeg 7.1.1` using:
->
-> ```bash
-> conda install ffmpeg=7.1.1 -c conda-forge
-> ```
-
-</hfoption>
-<hfoption id="uv (PyTorch >= 2.10 only)">
-
-Starting with **PyTorch >= 2.10** (TorchCodec ≥ 0.10), TorchCodec can dynamically link to a system-wide `ffmpeg` installation. This is useful when using `uv` or other non-`conda` environment managers:
-
-```bash
-# Ubuntu/Debian
-sudo apt install ffmpeg
-
-# macOS (Apple Silicon)
-brew install ffmpeg
-```
-
 > [!IMPORTANT]
-> System-wide `ffmpeg` is **only supported with PyTorch >= 2.10** (TorchCodec ≥ 0.10). For older PyTorch versions, you **must** use `conda install ffmpeg -c conda-forge` instead.

 ## Step 3: Install LeRobot 🤗
 
-The base `lerobot` install is intentionally **lightweight** — it includes only core ML dependencies (PyTorch, torchvision, numpy, opencv, einops, draccus, huggingface-hub, gymnasium, safetensors). Heavier dependencies are gated behind optional extras so you only install what you need.

-# Language columns and recipes
-
-Most LeRobot datasets ship with a single `task` string per episode — fine for
-short, single-instruction skills, but not enough for the longer-horizon,
-multi-modal robot policies the field is moving toward (high-level planning,
-memory, interjections, VQA, tool use). To support those policies without
-forking the dataset format, LeRobot extends `LeRobotDataset` with two optional
-language columns and a small recipe layer that turns those rows into
-chat-style training samples on the fly.
-
-The design splits cleanly into three layers:
-
-1. **Data in the dataset** — language annotations stored next to frames in
-   `data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet` as two optional columns (`language_persistent`
-   and `language_events`). Datasets without these columns keep their existing
-   behavior.
-2. **Recipe** — a YAML file that declares which annotation rows to bind and
-   how to lay them out as chat turns (`role`, `content`, optional images,
-   optional tool calls). Recipes are pure config; no Python required to add a
-   new one.
-3. **Training format** — at sample time, `RenderMessagesStep` resolves the
-   recipe against the per-frame annotations and emits HF-style `messages` plus
-   LeRobot-specific sidecars (`message_streams`, `target_message_indices`)
-   that policy processors consume.
-
-This page describes each layer in turn.
-
-## Layer 1 — language columns in the dataset
-
-The two optional columns live next to frame data in
-`data/chunk-*/file-*.parquet`:
-
-- `language_persistent`: a list of rows broadcast across every frame in an episode for state that remains active, such as `subtask`, `plan`, and `memory`.
-- `language_events`: a list of rows only on the exact frame where an event was emitted, such as `interjection`, `vqa`, and speech tool calls.
-
-Both columns share the same row shape (event rows omit `timestamp` because the
-frame the row sits on already provides it):
-
-```text
-role: string
-content: string | null
-style: string | null
-timestamp: float64        # persistent rows only
-camera: string | null     # observation.images.* feature key, view-dependent rows only
-tool_calls: list[Json] | null
-```
-
-The `camera` field tags rows whose `content` is grounded in a specific camera
-view. Rows of view-dependent styles (`vqa` and `trace`) MUST set `camera` to
-the matching `observation.images.*` feature key. Rows of every other style —
-including `motion`, which describes robot-frame primitives in joint / Cartesian
-terms — MUST leave `camera` as `null`. Pipeline writers and the validator
-enforce this via `validate_camera_field(style, camera)`.
-
-`meta/tasks.parquet` remains the canonical source for the task. The special `${task}` recipe binding always reads that task string and does not depend on language annotations.
-
-### Architecture
-
-The language stack itself has three internal modules backing layer 1:
-
-1. `lerobot.datasets.language` defines the schema, style registry, and `column_for_style`.
-2. `lerobot.datasets.language_render` resolves rows and renders messages.
-3. `RenderMessagesStep` turns dataset samples into `messages`, `message_streams`, and `target_message_indices`.
-
-`LeRobotDataset` stays recipe-agnostic. It passes `language_persistent` and `language_events` through when present, and unannotated datasets keep their existing behavior.
-
-### Temporal semantics
-
-Persistent styles are active after emission until replaced:
-
-- `active_at(t, style=subtask)`
-- `nth_prev(style=memory, offset=1)`
-- `nth_next(style=subtask, offset=1)`
-
-Event styles only exist on their exact timestamp:
-
-- `emitted_at(t, style=interjection)`
-- `emitted_at(t, style=vqa, role=user, camera=observation.images.top)`
-- `emitted_at(t, role=assistant, tool_name=say)`
-
-Exact event matching has no tolerance window, so writers must stamp event rows with frame timestamps from the parquet data.
-
-### View-dependent resolution
-
-For view-dependent styles (`vqa` and `trace`), the resolver gains a
-`camera=` filter parallel to `role=` and `tool_name=`. Datasets with multiple
-cameras typically emit one (`vqa`, `user`) + (`vqa`, `assistant`) pair per
-camera at the same timestamp; without `camera=`, those resolvers see two
-matches and raise an ambiguity error. Recipes consume each camera through its
-own binding plus a matching image block, e.g.
-
-```yaml
-ask_vqa_top:
-  bindings:
-    vqa_query: "emitted_at(t, style=vqa, role=user, camera=observation.images.top)"
-    vqa: "emitted_at(t, style=vqa, role=assistant, camera=observation.images.top)"
-  messages:
-    - role: user
-      stream: high_level
-      if_present: vqa_query
-      content:
-        - { type: image, feature: observation.images.top }
-        - { type: text, text: "${vqa_query}" }
-    - {
-        role: assistant,
-        content: "${vqa}",
-        stream: high_level,
-        target: true,
-        if_present: vqa,
-      }
-```
-
-Add one such sub-recipe per camera the dataset records.
-
-## Layer 2 — recipe anatomy
-
-Recipes are YAML files backed by `TrainingRecipe` and `MessageTurn`. They
-declare which annotation rows to pull (via `bindings`) and how to compose them
-into chat turns (`messages`).
-
-```yaml
-messages:
-  - { role: user, content: "${task}", stream: high_level }
-  - { role: assistant, content: "${subtask}", stream: low_level, target: true }
-```
-
-A recipe can also branch into a weighted **blend** of sub-recipes. At sample
-time, exactly one branch is selected deterministically from the sample index,
-so different frames train different objectives (e.g. memory updates vs.
-low-level execution vs. VQA) without any Python wiring.
-
-## Layer 3 — training format
-
-Rendered samples use HF-style chat messages plus LeRobot sidecars:
-
-```python
-sample["messages"]
-sample["message_streams"]
-sample["target_message_indices"]
-```
-
-The renderer does not apply a tokenizer chat template. Policy processors decide how to serialize the messages for their backbone, which keeps the same dataset usable across SmolVLA, Pi0.5, and any future VLM that expects OpenAI-style chat messages.
-
-## Graceful absence
-
-If both language columns are missing, `None`, or empty, `RenderMessagesStep` is a no-op.
-If an event-scoped branch is selected on a frame without the required event row, rendering returns `None`, allowing a loader to retry another sample.

-LIBERO-plus is a **robustness benchmark** for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models built on top of [LIBERO](./libero). It systematically stress-tests policies by applying **seven independent perturbation dimensions** to the original LIBERO task set, exposing failure modes that standard benchmarks miss.

-
-## Perturbation dimensions
-
-LIBERO-plus creates ~10 000 task variants by perturbing each original LIBERO task along these axes:
-
-| Dimension             | What changes                                          |

-| Sensor noise          | Photometric distortions and image degradation         |
-
-## Available task suites
-
-LIBERO-plus covers the same five suites as LIBERO:
-
-| Suite          | CLI name         | Tasks | Max steps | Description                                        |
-| -------------- | ---------------- | ----- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
-| LIBERO-Spatial | `libero_spatial` | 10    | 280       | Tasks requiring reasoning about spatial relations  |
-| LIBERO-Object  | `libero_object`  | 10    | 280       | Tasks centered on manipulating different objects   |
-| LIBERO-Goal    | `libero_goal`    | 10    | 300       | Goal-conditioned tasks with changing targets       |
-| LIBERO-90      | `libero_90`      | 90    | 400       | Short-horizon tasks from the LIBERO-100 collection |
-| LIBERO-Long    | `libero_10`      | 10    | 520       | Long-horizon tasks from the LIBERO-100 collection  |
-
-<Tip warning={true}>
-  Installing LIBERO-plus **replaces** vanilla LIBERO — it uninstalls `hf-libero`
-  so that `import libero` resolves to the LIBERO-plus fork. You cannot have both
-  installed at the same time. To switch back to vanilla LIBERO, uninstall the
-  fork and reinstall with `pip install -e ".[libero]"`.
-</Tip>
-
-## Installation
-
-### System dependencies (Linux only)
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install libexpat1 libfontconfig1-dev libmagickwand-dev
-```
-
-### Python package
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[libero]" "robosuite==1.4.1" bddl easydict mujoco wand scikit-image gym
-git clone https://github.com/sylvestf/LIBERO-plus.git
-cd LIBERO-plus && pip install --no-deps -e .
-pip uninstall -y hf-libero  # so `import libero` resolves to the fork
-```
-
-LIBERO-plus is installed from its GitHub fork rather than a pyproject extra — the fork ships as a namespace package that pip can't handle, so it must be cloned and added to `PYTHONPATH`. See `docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.libero_plus` for the canonical install. MuJoCo is required, so only Linux is supported.
-
-<Tip>
-Set the MuJoCo rendering backend before running evaluation:
-
-```bash
-export MUJOCO_GL=egl   # headless / HPC / cloud
-```
-
-</Tip>
-
-### Download LIBERO-plus assets
-
-LIBERO-plus ships its extended asset pack separately. Download `assets.zip` from the [Hugging Face dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sylvest/LIBERO-plus/tree/main) and extract it into the LIBERO-plus package directory:
-
-```bash
-# After installing the package, find where it was installed:
-python -c "import libero; print(libero.__file__)"
-# Then extract assets.zip into <package_root>/libero/assets/
-```
-
-## Evaluation
-
-### Default evaluation (recommended)
-
-Evaluate across the four standard suites (10 episodes per task):
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=libero_plus \
-  --env.task=libero_spatial,libero_object,libero_goal,libero_10 \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --env.max_parallel_tasks=1
-```
-
-### Single-suite evaluation
-
-Evaluate on one LIBERO-plus suite:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=libero_plus \
-  --env.task=libero_spatial \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10
-```
-
-- `--env.task` picks the suite (`libero_spatial`, `libero_object`, etc.).
-- `--env.task_ids` restricts to specific task indices (`[0]`, `[1,2,3]`, etc.). Omit to run all tasks in the suite.
-- `--eval.batch_size` controls how many environments run in parallel.
-- `--eval.n_episodes` sets how many episodes to run per task.
-
-### Multi-suite evaluation
-
-Benchmark a policy across multiple suites at once by passing a comma-separated list:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=libero_plus \
-  --env.task=libero_spatial,libero_object \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10
-```
-
-### Control mode
-
-LIBERO-plus supports two control modes — `relative` (default) and `absolute`. Different VLA checkpoints are trained with different action parameterizations, so make sure the mode matches your policy:
-
-```bash
---env.control_mode=relative   # or "absolute"
-```
-
-### Policy inputs and outputs
-
-**Observations:**
-
-- `observation.state` — 8-dim proprioceptive features (eef position, axis-angle orientation, gripper qpos)
-- `observation.images.image` — main camera view (`agentview_image`), HWC uint8
-- `observation.images.image2` — wrist camera view (`robot0_eye_in_hand_image`), HWC uint8
-
-**Actions:**
-
-- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(7,))` — 6D end-effector delta + 1D gripper
-
-### Recommended evaluation episodes
-
-For reproducible benchmarking, use **10 episodes per task** across all four standard suites (Spatial, Object, Goal, Long). This gives 400 total episodes and matches the protocol used for published results.
-
-## Training
-
-### Dataset
-
-A LeRobot-format training dataset for LIBERO-plus is available at:
-
-- [lerobot/libero_plus](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/libero_plus)
-
-### Example training command
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \

-    --policy.repo_id=${HF_USER}/smolvla_libero_plus \
-    --policy.load_vlm_weights=true \

-    --batch_size=4 \
-    --eval.batch_size=1 \
-    --eval.n_episodes=1 \
-    --eval_freq=1000
-```
-
-## Relationship to LIBERO
-
-LIBERO-plus is a drop-in extension of LIBERO:
-
-- Same Python gym interface (`LiberoEnv`, `LiberoProcessorStep`)
-- Same camera names and observation/action format
-- Same task suite names
-- Installs under the same `libero` Python package name (different GitHub repo)
-
-To use the original LIBERO benchmark, see [LIBERO](./libero) and use `--env.type=libero`.

-## Available tasks
+## Why Meta-World matters
 
-Meta-World provides 50 tasks organized into difficulty groups. In LeRobot, you can evaluate on individual tasks, difficulty groups, or the full MT50 suite:
+- **Diverse, realistic tasks.** Meta-World bundles a large suite of simulated manipulation tasks (50 in the MT50 suite) using everyday objects and a common tabletop Sawyer arm. This diversity exposes algorithms to a wide variety of dynamics, contacts and goal specifications while keeping a consistent control and observation structure.
+- **Focus on generalization and multi-task learning.** By evaluating across task distributions that share structure but differ in goals and objects, Meta-World reveals whether an agent truly learns transferable skills rather than overfitting to a narrow task.
+- **Standardized evaluation protocol.** It provides clear evaluation modes and difficulty splits, so different methods can be compared fairly across easy, medium, hard and very-hard regimes.
+- **Empirical insight.** Past evaluations on Meta-World show impressive progress on some fronts, but also highlight that current multi-task and meta-RL methods still struggle with large, diverse task sets. That gap points to important research directions.

-| Medium     | `medium`             | 11    | Tasks requiring multi-step reasoning                   |
-| Hard       | `hard`               | 6     | Tasks with complex contacts and precise manipulation   |

+## What it enables in LeRobot
 
-You can also pass individual task names directly (e.g., `assembly-v3`, `dial-turn-v3`).
+In LeRobot, you can evaluate any policy or vision-language-action (VLA) model on Meta-World tasks and get a clear success-rate measure. The integration is designed to be straightforward:
 
-We provide a LeRobot-ready dataset for Meta-World MT50 on the HF Hub: [lerobot/metaworld_mt50](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/metaworld_mt50). This dataset is formatted for the MT50 evaluation that uses all 50 tasks with fixed object/goal positions and one-hot task vectors for consistency.

-
-- `--env.task` accepts explicit task lists (comma-separated) or difficulty groups (e.g., `easy`, `medium`, `hard`, `very_hard`).
-- `--eval.batch_size` controls how many environments run in parallel.
-- `--eval.n_episodes` sets how many episodes to run per task.
-
-### Policy inputs and outputs
-
-**Observations:**
-
-- `observation.image` — single camera view (`corner2`), 480x480 HWC uint8
-- `observation.state` — 4-dim proprioceptive state (end-effector position + gripper)
-
-**Actions:**
-
-- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(4,))` — 3D end-effector delta + 1D gripper
-
-### Recommended evaluation episodes
-
-For reproducible benchmarking, use **10 episodes per task**. For the full MT50 suite this gives 500 total episodes. If you care about generalization, run on the full MT50 — it is intentionally challenging and reveals strengths/weaknesses better than a few narrow tasks.

-## Relative Actions
-
-π₀.₅ supports training with **relative actions**, where the model learns relative offsets
-from the current robot state instead of absolute joint positions. This mirrors the
-relative-action transform in OpenPI (`DeltaActions`) and can improve performance.
-
-### How it works
-
-1. **During preprocessing**, absolute actions are converted to relative offsets:
-   `relative = action - state` (for selected joints).
-2. The relative actions are normalized using statistics computed from the relative distribution.
-3. **During postprocessing**, predicted relative actions are converted back to absolute:
-   `absolute = relative + state`.
-
-Joints listed in `relative_exclude_joints` (e.g., gripper) are kept absolute.
-
-### Configuration
-
-| Parameter                 | Type        | Default       | Description                                                      |
-| ------------------------- | ----------- | ------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `use_relative_actions`    | `bool`      | `False`       | Enable relative-action training                                  |
-| `relative_exclude_joints` | `list[str]` | `["gripper"]` | Joint names to keep absolute (matched by substring)              |
-| `action_feature_names`    | `list[str]` | `None`        | Auto-populated from dataset metadata at runtime by `make_policy` |
-
-### Training example
-
-```bash
-python -m lerobot.scripts.lerobot_train \
-  --policy.type=pi05 \
-  --dataset.repo_id=your_org/your_dataset \
-  --policy.use_relative_actions=true \
-  --policy.relative_exclude_joints='["gripper"]'
-```
-
-When `use_relative_actions=true`, the training script automatically:
-
-- Computes relative action statistics from the dataset (sampled chunk-level relative actions)
-- Replaces the standard action stats with relative stats for normalization
-- Broadcasts these stats across all ranks in distributed training

-
-## Available tasks
-
-RoboCasa365 organizes its 365 tasks into two families and three upstream benchmark groups that LeRobot exposes as first-class `--env.task` shortcuts:
-
-| Family    | Tasks | Description                                                                     |
-| --------- | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Atomic    | ~65   | Single-skill tasks: pick-and-place, door/drawer manipulation, appliance control |
-| Composite | ~300  | Multi-step tasks across 60+ categories: cooking, cleaning, organizing, etc.     |
-
-**Atomic task examples:** `CloseFridge`, `OpenDrawer`, `OpenCabinet`, `TurnOnMicrowave`, `TurnOffStove`, `NavigateKitchen`, `PickPlaceCounterToStove`.
-
-**Composite task categories:** baking, boiling, brewing, chopping, clearing table, defrosting food, loading dishwasher, making tea, microwaving food, washing dishes, and more.
-
-`--env.task` accepts three forms:
-
-- a single task name (`CloseFridge`)
-- a comma-separated list (`CloseFridge,OpenBlenderLid,PickPlaceCoffee`)
-- a benchmark-group shortcut — `atomic_seen`, `composite_seen`, `composite_unseen`, `pretrain50`, `pretrain100`, `pretrain200`, `pretrain300` — which auto-expands to the upstream task list and auto-sets the dataset `split` (`target` or `pretrain`).
-
-## Installation
-
-RoboCasa and its dependency `robosuite` are not published on PyPI, and RoboCasa's own `setup.py` hardcodes `lerobot==0.3.3`, which conflicts with this repo's `lerobot`. LeRobot therefore does **not** expose a `robocasa` extra — install the two packages manually as editable clones (using `--no-deps` on `robocasa` to skip its shadowed `lerobot` pin):
-
-```bash
-# After following the standard LeRobot installation instructions.
-
-git clone https://github.com/robocasa/robocasa.git ~/robocasa
-git clone https://github.com/ARISE-Initiative/robosuite.git ~/robosuite
-pip install -e ~/robocasa --no-deps
-pip install -e ~/robosuite
-
-# Robocasa's runtime deps (the ones its setup.py would have pulled, minus
-# the bad lerobot pin).
-pip install numpy numba scipy mujoco pygame Pillow opencv-python \
-            pyyaml pynput tqdm termcolor imageio h5py lxml hidapi \
-            tianshou gymnasium
-
-python -m robocasa.scripts.setup_macros
-# Lightweight assets (lightwheel object meshes + textures). Enough for
-# the default env out of the box.
-python -m robocasa.scripts.download_kitchen_assets \
-  --type tex tex_generative fixtures_lw objs_lw
-# Optional: full objaverse/aigen registries (~30GB) for richer object
-# variety. Enable at eval time via --env.obj_registries (see below).
-# python -m robocasa.scripts.download_kitchen_assets --type objs_objaverse
-```
-
-<Tip>
-RoboCasa requires MuJoCo. Set the rendering backend before training or evaluation:
-
-```bash
-export MUJOCO_GL=egl  # for headless servers (HPC, cloud)
-```
-
-</Tip>
-
-### Object registries
-
-By default the env samples objects only from the `lightwheel` registry (what `--type objs_lw` ships), which avoids a `Probabilities contain NaN` crash when the objaverse / aigen packs aren't on disk. If you've downloaded the full asset set, enable the full registry at runtime:
-
-```bash
---env.obj_registries='[objaverse,lightwheel]'
-```
-
-## Evaluation
-
-All eval snippets below mirror the CI command (see `.github/workflows/benchmark_tests.yml`). The `--rename_map` argument maps RoboCasa's native camera keys (`robot0_agentview_left` / `robot0_eye_in_hand` / `robot0_agentview_right`) onto the three-camera (`camera1` / `camera2` / `camera3`) input layout the released `smolvla_robocasa` policy was trained on.
-

-- `observation.images.robot0_eye_in_hand` — wrist camera view, 256×256 HWC uint8
-- `observation.images.robot0_agentview_right` — right agent view, 256×256 HWC uint8
-
-**Actions:**
-
-- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(12,))` — base motion (4D) + control mode (1D) + end-effector position (3D) + end-effector rotation (3D) + gripper (1D).
-
-## Training
-
-### Single-task example
-
-A ready-to-use single-task dataset is on the Hub:
-[`pepijn223/robocasa_CloseFridge`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/pepijn223/robocasa_CloseFridge).
-
-Fine-tune a SmolVLA base on `CloseFridge`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --policy.type=smolvla \
-  --policy.repo_id=${HF_USER}/smolvla_robocasa_CloseFridge \
-  --policy.load_vlm_weights=true \

-  --eval_freq=5000 \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=5 \
-  --save_freq=10000
-```
-
-Evaluate the resulting checkpoint:
-
-```bash

-# RoboCerebra
-
-[RoboCerebra](https://robocerebra-project.github.io/) is a long-horizon manipulation benchmark that evaluates **high-level reasoning, planning, and memory** in VLAs. Episodes chain multiple sub-goals with language-grounded intermediate instructions, built on top of LIBERO's simulator stack (MuJoCo + robosuite, Franka Panda 7-DOF).
-
-- Paper: [RoboCerebra: A Large-scale Benchmark for Long-horizon Robotic Manipulation Evaluation](https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.06677)
-- Project website: [robocerebra-project.github.io](https://robocerebra-project.github.io/)
-- Dataset: [`lerobot/robocerebra_unified`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/robocerebra_unified) — LeRobot v3.0, 6,660 episodes / 571,116 frames at 20 fps, 1,728 language-grounded sub-tasks.
-- Pretrained policy: [`lerobot/smolvla_robocerebra`](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/smolvla_robocerebra)
-
-## Available tasks
-
-RoboCerebra reuses LIBERO's simulator, so evaluation runs against the LIBERO `libero_10` long-horizon suite:
-
-| Suite     | CLI name    | Tasks | Description                                                   |
-| --------- | ----------- | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| LIBERO-10 | `libero_10` | 10    | Long-horizon kitchen/living room tasks chaining 3–6 sub-goals |
-
-Each RoboCerebra episode in the dataset is segmented into multiple sub-tasks with natural-language instructions, which the unified dataset exposes as independent supervision signals.
-
-## Installation
-
-RoboCerebra piggybacks on LIBERO, so the `libero` extra is all you need:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[libero]"
-```
-
-<Tip>
-RoboCerebra requires Linux (MuJoCo / robosuite). Set the rendering backend before training or evaluation:
-
-```bash
-export MUJOCO_GL=egl  # for headless servers (HPC, cloud)
-```
-
-</Tip>
-
-## Evaluation
-
-RoboCerebra eval runs against LIBERO's `libero_10` suite with RoboCerebra's camera naming (`image` + `wrist_image`) and an extra empty-camera slot so a three-view-trained policy receives the expected input layout:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_robocerebra \
-  --env.type=libero \
-  --env.task=libero_10 \
-  --env.fps=20 \
-  --env.obs_type=pixels_agent_pos \
-  --env.observation_height=256 \
-  --env.observation_width=256 \
-  '--env.camera_name_mapping={"agentview_image": "image", "robot0_eye_in_hand_image": "wrist_image"}' \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --eval.use_async_envs=false \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  '--rename_map={"observation.images.image": "observation.images.camera1", "observation.images.wrist_image": "observation.images.camera2"}' \
-  --policy.empty_cameras=1
-```
-
-### Recommended evaluation episodes
-
-**10 episodes per task** across the `libero_10` suite (100 total) for reproducible benchmarking. Matches the protocol used in the RoboCerebra paper.
-
-## Policy inputs and outputs
-
-**Observations:**
-
-- `observation.state` — 8-dim proprioceptive state (7 joint positions + gripper)
-- `observation.images.image` — third-person view, 256×256 HWC uint8
-- `observation.images.wrist_image` — wrist-mounted camera view, 256×256 HWC uint8
-
-**Actions:**
-
-- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(7,))` — end-effector delta (6D) + gripper (1D)
-
-## Training
-
-The unified dataset at [`lerobot/robocerebra_unified`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/robocerebra_unified) exposes two RGB streams and language-grounded sub-task annotations:
-
-| Feature                          | Shape         | Description          |
-| -------------------------------- | ------------- | -------------------- |
-| `observation.images.image`       | (256, 256, 3) | Third-person view    |
-| `observation.images.wrist_image` | (256, 256, 3) | Wrist-mounted camera |
-| `observation.state`              | (8,)          | Joint pos + gripper  |
-| `action`                         | (7,)          | EEF delta + gripper  |
-
-Fine-tune a SmolVLA base on it:
-
-```bash

-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_base \
-  --dataset.repo_id=lerobot/robocerebra_unified \

-| **Imitation** (procedural memory) | MoveCube, InsertPeg, PatternLock, RouteStick                  |
-
-## Installation
-
-> RoboMME requires **Linux** (ManiSkill/SAPIEN uses Vulkan rendering). Docker is recommended to isolate dependency conflicts.
-
-### Native (Linux)
-
-```bash
-pip install --override <(printf 'gymnasium==0.29.1\nnumpy==1.26.4\n') \
-  -e '.[smolvla,av-dep]' \
-  'robomme @ git+https://github.com/RoboMME/robomme_benchmark.git@main'
-```
-
-> **Dependency note**: `mani-skill` (pulled by `robomme`) pins `gymnasium==0.29.1` and `numpy<2.0.0`, which conflict with lerobot's base `numpy>=2.0.0`. That's why `robomme` is not a pyproject extra — use the override install above, or the Docker approach below to avoid conflicts entirely.
-
-### Docker (recommended)
-
-```bash
-# Build base image first (from repo root)
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.eval-base -t lerobot-eval-base .
-
-# Build RoboMME eval image (applies gymnasium + numpy pin overrides)
-docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robomme -t lerobot-robomme .
-```
-
-The `docker/Dockerfile.benchmark.robomme` image overrides `gymnasium==0.29.1` and `numpy==1.26.4` after lerobot's install. Both versions are runtime-safe for lerobot's actual API usage.
-
-## Running Evaluation
-
-### Default (single task, single episode)
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-    --policy.path=<your_policy_repo> \
-    --env.type=robomme \
-    --env.task=PickXtimes \
-    --env.dataset_split=test \
-    --env.task_ids=[0] \
-    --eval.batch_size=1 \
-    --eval.n_episodes=1
-```
-
-### Multi-task evaluation
-
-Evaluate multiple tasks in one run by comma-separating task names. Use `task_ids` to control which episodes are evaluated per task. Recommended: 50 episodes per task for the test split.
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-    --policy.path=<your_policy_repo> \
-    --env.type=robomme \
-    --env.task=PickXtimes,BinFill,StopCube,MoveCube,InsertPeg \
-    --env.dataset_split=test \
-    --env.task_ids=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] \
-    --eval.batch_size=1 \
-    --eval.n_episodes=50
-```
-
-### Key CLI options for `env.type=robomme`
-
-| Option               | Default       | Description                                        |
-| -------------------- | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
-| `env.task`           | `PickXtimes`  | Any of the 16 task names above (comma-separated)   |
-| `env.dataset_split`  | `test`        | `train`, `val`, or `test`                          |
-| `env.action_space`   | `joint_angle` | `joint_angle` (8-D) or `ee_pose` (7-D)             |
-| `env.episode_length` | `300`         | Max steps per episode                              |
-| `env.task_ids`       | `null`        | List of episode indices to evaluate (null = `[0]`) |
-
-## Dataset
-
-The dataset [`lerobot/robomme`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/lerobot/robomme) is in **LeRobot v3.0 format** and can be loaded directly:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.lerobot_dataset import LeRobotDataset
-
-dataset = LeRobotDataset("lerobot/robomme")
-```
-
-### Dataset features
-
-| Feature            | Shape         | Description                     |
-| ------------------ | ------------- | ------------------------------- |
-| `image`            | (256, 256, 3) | Front camera RGB                |
-| `wrist_image`      | (256, 256, 3) | Wrist camera RGB                |
-| `actions`          | (8,)          | Joint angles + gripper          |
-| `state`            | (8,)          | Joint positions + gripper state |
-| `simple_subgoal`   | str           | High-level language annotation  |
-| `grounded_subgoal` | str           | Grounded language annotation    |
-| `episode_index`    | int           | Episode ID                      |
-| `frame_index`      | int           | Frame within episode            |
-
-### Feature key alignment (training)
-
-The env wrapper exposes `pixels/image` and `pixels/wrist_image` as observation keys. The `features_map` in `RoboMMEEnv` maps these to `observation.images.image` and `observation.images.wrist_image` for the policy. State is exposed as `agent_pos` and maps to `observation.state`.
-
-The dataset's `image` and `wrist_image` columns already align with the policy input keys, so no renaming is needed when fine-tuning.
-
-## Action Spaces
-
-| Type          | Dim | Description                                               |
-| ------------- | --- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `joint_angle` | 8   | 7 joint angles + 1 gripper (−1 closed, +1 open, absolute) |
-| `ee_pose`     | 7   | xyz + roll/pitch/yaw + gripper                            |
-
-Set via `--env.action_space=joint_angle` (default) or `--env.action_space=ee_pose`.
-
-## Platform Notes
-
-- **Linux only**: ManiSkill requires SAPIEN/Vulkan. macOS and Windows are not supported.
-- **GPU recommended**: Rendering is CPU-capable but slow; CUDA + Vulkan gives full speed.
-- **gymnasium / numpy conflict**: See installation note above. Docker image handles this automatically.
-- **ManiSkill fork**: `robomme` depends on a specific ManiSkill fork (`YinpeiDai/ManiSkill`), pulled in automatically via the `robomme` package.

-## Available tasks
-
-RoboTwin 2.0 ships 50 dual-arm manipulation tasks in its upstream `envs/` directory. The canonical list is the `ROBOTWIN_TASKS` tuple in `src/lerobot/envs/robotwin.py`, mirrored verbatim from the upstream repo. Example tasks:
-
-| Task                     | CLI name                 | Category          |
-| ------------------------ | ------------------------ | ----------------- |
-| Beat block with hammer   | `beat_block_hammer`      | Tool use          |
-| Click bell / alarm clock | `click_bell`             | Precision press   |
-| Stack blocks (2 / 3)     | `stack_blocks_two/three` | Stacking          |
-| Stack bowls (2 / 3)      | `stack_bowls_two/three`  | Stacking          |
-| Handover block / mic     | `handover_block`         | Bimanual coord.   |
-| Lift pot                 | `lift_pot`               | Bimanual lift     |
-| Shake bottle             | `shake_bottle`           | Continuous motion |
-| Turn switch              | `turn_switch`            | Articulated obj   |
-| Stamp seal               | `stamp_seal`             | Precision place   |
-| Scan object              | `scan_object`            | Mobile manip.     |
-
-Pass a comma-separated list to `--env.task` to run multiple tasks in a single eval sweep.
-
-<Tip warning={true}>
-  `open_laptop` is currently broken upstream (its `check_success()` uses
-  `self.arm_tag`, which is only set inside the scripted-expert `play_once()`
-  path and therefore unavailable during normal policy eval). Avoid it until the
-  upstream bug is fixed, or patch the task to default `self.arm_tag = "left"` in
-  `load_actors()`.
-</Tip>
-
-## Dataset
-
-The RoboTwin 2.0 dataset is available in **LeRobot v3.0 format** on the Hugging Face Hub:
-
-```
-lerobot/robotwin_unified
-```
-
-It contains over 100,000 pre-collected trajectories across all 50 tasks (79.6 GB, Apache 2.0 license). No format conversion is needed — it is already in the correct LeRobot v3.0 schema with video observations and action labels.
-
-You can load it directly with the HF Datasets library:
-
-```python
-from datasets import load_dataset
-
-ds = load_dataset("lerobot/robotwin_unified", split="train")
-```
-
-## Installation
-
-RoboTwin 2.0 requires **Linux** with an NVIDIA GPU (CUDA 12.1 recommended). Installation takes approximately 20 minutes.
-
-### 1. Create a conda environment
-
-```bash
-conda create -n robotwin python=3.10 -y
-conda activate robotwin
-```
-
-### 2. Install LeRobot
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/huggingface/lerobot.git
-cd lerobot
-pip install -e "."
-```
-
-### 3. Install RoboTwin 2.0
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/RoboTwin-Platform/RoboTwin.git
-cd RoboTwin
-bash script/_install.sh
-bash script/_download_assets.sh
-```
-
-The install script handles all Python dependencies including SAPIEN, CuRobo, mplib, and pytorch3d.
-
-<Tip warning={true}>
-If the automated install fails, install manually:
-
-```bash
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-pip install "git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d.git@stable"
-cd envs && git clone https://github.com/NVlabs/curobo.git && cd curobo
-pip install -e . --no-build-isolation
-```
-
-Then apply the required mplib fix: in `mplib/planner.py` line 807, remove `or collide` from the conditional.
-
-</Tip>
-
-### 4. Add RoboTwin to PYTHONPATH
-
-The RoboTwin task modules must be importable by LeRobot. From within the `RoboTwin/` directory:
-
-```bash
-export PYTHONPATH="${PYTHONPATH}:$(pwd)"
-```
-
-Add this to your shell profile to make it permanent.
-
-## Evaluation
-
-### Standard evaluation (recommended)
-
-Evaluate a policy on a single task with the official protocol (100 episodes):
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-hf-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=robotwin \
-  --env.task=beat_block_hammer \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=100
-```
-
-### Single-task quick check
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-hf-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=robotwin \
-  --env.task=beat_block_hammer \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=5
-```
-

-## Camera configuration
-
-By default, all three cameras are included:
-
-| Camera key     | Description                    |
-| -------------- | ------------------------------ |
-| `head_camera`  | Torso-mounted overhead view    |
-| `left_camera`  | Left arm wrist-mounted camera  |
-| `right_camera` | Right arm wrist-mounted camera |
-
-To use a subset of cameras, override `--env.camera_names`:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path="your-hf-policy-id" \
-  --env.type=robotwin \
-  --env.task=beat_block_hammer \

-# Tools
-
-LeRobot v3.1 supports **tool calls** in policies — assistant messages can
-emit structured invocations like `say(text="OK, starting now")` that the
-runtime dispatches to a real implementation (TTS, controller, logger, …).
-
-This page covers:
-
-1. Where the tool catalog lives.
-2. How the annotation pipeline produces tool-call atoms.
-3. How to add your own tool.
-
-## Where tools are declared
-
-Two layers.
-
-**The catalog** — a list of OpenAI-style function schemas — lives at
-`meta/info.json["tools"]` on each dataset. Example:
-
-```json
-{
-  "features": { "...": "..." },
-  "tools": [
-    {
-      "type": "function",
-      "function": {
-        "name": "say",
-        "description": "Speak a short utterance to the user via the TTS executor.",
-        "parameters": {
-          "type": "object",
-          "properties": {
-            "text": {
-              "type": "string",
-              "description": "The verbatim text to speak."
-            }
-          },
-          "required": ["text"]
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Read it via the dataset metadata accessor:
-
-```python
-from lerobot.datasets.dataset_metadata import LeRobotDatasetMetadata
-
-meta = LeRobotDatasetMetadata(repo_id="pepijn/super_poulain_final_annotations")
-tools = meta.tools     # list[dict] — OpenAI tool schemas
-```
-
-If the dataset's `info.json` doesn't declare any tools, `meta.tools`
-returns `DEFAULT_TOOLS` from `lerobot.datasets.language` — currently a
-single-entry list with the canonical `say` schema. So unannotated
-datasets and chat-template consumers keep working without any
-configuration:
-
-```python
-prompt_str = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
-    sample["messages"],
-    tools=meta.tools,                 # works either way
-    add_generation_prompt=False,
-    tokenize=False,
-)
-```
-
-**The implementations** — runnable Python — will live under
-`src/lerobot/tools/`, one file per tool. The runtime dispatcher and
-the canonical `say` implementation (wrapping Kyutai's pocket-tts) are
-not part of the catalog layer described here; today this layer ships
-only the schema storage and the `DEFAULT_TOOLS` fallback constant.
-
-## Per-row tool _invocations_
-
-The catalog above describes _what can be called_. The actual _call_ — the
-function name plus the argument values — is stored per-row, on the
-assistant atoms in `language_events`:
-
-```python
-{
-  "role": "assistant",
-  "content": null,
-  "style": null,
-  "timestamp": 12.4,
-  "camera": null,
-  "tool_calls": [
-    { "type": "function",
-      "function": { "name": "say", "arguments": { "text": "On it." } } }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Recipes splice these into rendered messages via `tool_calls_from`:
-
-```yaml
-user_interjection_response:
-  bindings:
-    speech: "emitted_at(t, role=assistant, tool_name=say)"
-  messages:
-    - { role: user, content: "${task}", stream: high_level }
-    - {
-        role: assistant,
-        content: "${current_plan}",
-        stream: high_level,
-        target: true,
-        tool_calls_from: speech,
-      }
-```
-
-The model's training target is one assistant turn that carries both the
-plan text _and_ the `say` tool call. At inference, the runtime parses
-the generated text back into structured `tool_calls` and dispatches to
-the matching implementation.
-
-## How to add your own tool
-
-> **Note:** Steps 2 and 3 below describe the runtime layer
-> (`src/lerobot/tools/`, the `Tool` protocol, `TOOL_REGISTRY`,
-> `get_tools(meta)`) which is not part of the catalog layer shipped
-> today — those modules don't yet exist in the tree. Step 1 alone is
-> enough to make the tool visible to the chat template via
-> `meta.tools` so the model can learn to _generate_ the call;
-> executing the call at inference requires the runtime layer.
-
-Three steps. Concrete example: a `record_observation` tool the policy
-can call to capture an extra observation outside the regular control
-loop.
-
-### Step 1 — declare the schema
-
-Add an entry under `meta/info.json["tools"]`. Either edit the file
-directly on disk _before_ running the annotation pipeline (it'll be
-preserved) or hand it to `lerobot-annotate` via a config flag.
-
-```json
-{
-  "tools": [
-    { "type": "function", "function": { "name": "say", "...": "..." } },
-    {
-      "type": "function",
-      "function": {
-        "name": "record_observation",
-        "description": "Capture a high-resolution still image for the user.",
-        "parameters": {
-          "type": "object",
-          "properties": {
-            "label": {
-              "type": "string",
-              "description": "Short label for the saved image."
-            }
-          },
-          "required": ["label"]
-        }
-      }
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-The schema follows OpenAI's function-calling convention exactly, so the
-chat template can render it natively.
-
-### Step 2 — implement the call
-
-Create `src/lerobot/tools/record_observation.py`:
-
-```python
-from .base import Tool
-from typing import Any
-
-RECORD_OBSERVATION_SCHEMA: dict[str, Any] = { "...": "..." }   # mirrors the JSON above
-
-
-class RecordObservationTool:
-    name = "record_observation"
-    schema = RECORD_OBSERVATION_SCHEMA
-
-    def __init__(self, schema: dict | None = None, output_dir: str = "."):
-        self.output_dir = output_dir
-
-    def call(self, arguments: dict) -> str:
-        label = arguments["label"]
-        # ... save the latest camera frame to <output_dir>/<label>.png ...
-        return f"saved {label}.png"
-```
-
-One file per tool keeps dependencies isolated — `record_observation`
-might pull `pillow`, while `say` pulls `pocket-tts`. Users installing
-only the tools they need avoid heavy transitive deps.
-
-### Step 3 — register it
-
-Add to `src/lerobot/tools/registry.py`:
-
-```python
-from .record_observation import RecordObservationTool
-
-TOOL_REGISTRY["record_observation"] = RecordObservationTool
-```
-
-That's it. At runtime `get_tools(meta)` looks up each schema in
-`meta.tools`, instantiates the matching registered class, and returns
-a name → instance dict the dispatcher can route into.
-
-If you want to use a tool _without_ writing an implementation (e.g. for
-training-time chat-template formatting only), step 1 alone is enough —
-the model still learns to _generate_ the call. Steps 2 and 3 are only
-needed to actually _execute_ it at inference.

Built on MuJoCo / dm_control with a Franka Panda 7-DOF arm. LeRobot exposes **43 of these tasks** through `--env.task` (21 primitives + 22 composites, see [Available tasks](#available-tasks) below).

-## Available tasks
-
-VLABench ships two task suites covering **43 task categories** in LeRobot's `--env.task` surface:
-
-| Suite     | CLI name    | Tasks | Description                                                      |
-| --------- | ----------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Primitive | `primitive` | 21    | Single / few-skill combinations (select, insert, physics QA)     |
-| Composite | `composite` | 22    | Multi-step reasoning and long-horizon planning (cook, rearrange) |
-
-**Primitive tasks:** `select_fruit`, `select_toy`, `select_chemistry_tube`, `add_condiment`, `select_book`, `select_painting`, `select_drink`, `insert_flower`, `select_billiards`, `select_ingredient`, `select_mahjong`, `select_poker`, and physical-reasoning tasks (`density_qa`, `friction_qa`, `magnetism_qa`, `reflection_qa`, `simple_cuestick_usage`, `simple_seesaw_usage`, `sound_speed_qa`, `thermal_expansion_qa`, `weight_qa`).
-
-**Composite tasks:** `cluster_billiards`, `cluster_book`, `cluster_drink`, `cluster_toy`, `cook_dishes`, `cool_drink`, `find_unseen_object`, `get_coffee`, `hammer_nail`, `heat_food`, `make_juice`, `play_mahjong`, `play_math_game`, `play_poker`, `play_snooker`, `rearrange_book`, `rearrange_chemistry_tube`, `set_dining_table`, `set_study_table`, `store_food`, `take_chemistry_experiment`, `use_seesaw_complex`.
-
-`--env.task` accepts three forms:
-
-- a single task name (`select_fruit`)
-- a comma-separated list (`select_fruit,heat_food`)
-- a suite shortcut (`primitive`, `composite`, or `primitive,composite`)
-
-## Installation
-
-VLABench is **not on PyPI** — its only distribution is the [OpenMOSS/VLABench](https://github.com/OpenMOSS/VLABench) GitHub repo — so LeRobot does not expose a `vlabench` extra. Install it manually as an editable clone, alongside the MuJoCo / dm_control pins VLABench needs, then fetch the mesh assets:
-
-```bash
-# After following the standard LeRobot installation instructions.
-
-git clone https://github.com/OpenMOSS/VLABench.git ~/VLABench
-git clone https://github.com/motion-planning/rrt-algorithms.git ~/rrt-algorithms
-pip install -e ~/VLABench -e ~/rrt-algorithms
-pip install "mujoco==3.2.2" "dm-control==1.0.22" \
-            open3d colorlog scikit-learn openai gdown
-
-python ~/VLABench/scripts/download_assets.py
-```
-
-<Tip>
-VLABench requires Linux (`sys_platform == 'linux'`) and Python 3.10+. Set the MuJoCo rendering backend before running:
-
-```bash
-export MUJOCO_GL=egl  # for headless servers (HPC, cloud)
-```
-
-</Tip>
-
-## Evaluation
-
-All eval snippets below mirror the command CI runs (see `.github/workflows/benchmark_tests.yml`). The `--rename_map` argument maps VLABench's `image` / `second_image` / `wrist_image` camera keys onto the three-camera (`camera1` / `camera2` / `camera3`) input layout the released `smolvla_vlabench` policy was trained on.
-
-### Single-task evaluation (recommended for quick iteration)
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_vlabench \
-  --env.type=vlabench \
-  --env.task=select_fruit \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --eval.use_async_envs=false \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  '--rename_map={"observation.images.image": "observation.images.camera1", "observation.images.second_image": "observation.images.camera2", "observation.images.wrist_image": "observation.images.camera3"}'
-```
-
-### Multi-task evaluation
-
-Pass a comma-separated list of tasks:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_vlabench \
-  --env.type=vlabench \
-  --env.task=select_fruit,select_toy,add_condiment,heat_food \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --eval.use_async_envs=false \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  '--rename_map={"observation.images.image": "observation.images.camera1", "observation.images.second_image": "observation.images.camera2", "observation.images.wrist_image": "observation.images.camera3"}'
-```
-
-### Suite-wide evaluation
-
-Run an entire suite (all 21 primitives or all 22 composites):
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_vlabench \
-  --env.type=vlabench \
-  --env.task=primitive \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --eval.use_async_envs=false \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --env.max_parallel_tasks=1 \
-  '--rename_map={"observation.images.image": "observation.images.camera1", "observation.images.second_image": "observation.images.camera2", "observation.images.wrist_image": "observation.images.camera3"}'
-```
-
-Or both suites:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-eval \
-  --policy.path=lerobot/smolvla_vlabench \
-  --env.type=vlabench \
-  --env.task=primitive,composite \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=10 \
-  --eval.use_async_envs=false \
-  --policy.device=cuda \
-  --env.max_parallel_tasks=1 \
-  '--rename_map={"observation.images.image": "observation.images.camera1", "observation.images.second_image": "observation.images.camera2", "observation.images.wrist_image": "observation.images.camera3"}'
-```
-
-### Recommended evaluation episodes
-
-**10 episodes per task** for reproducible benchmarking (210 total for the full primitive suite, 220 for composite). Matches the protocol in the VLABench paper.
-
-## Policy inputs and outputs
-
-**Observations:**
-
-- `observation.state` — 7-dim end-effector state (position xyz + Euler xyz + gripper)
-- `observation.images.image` — front camera, 480×480 HWC uint8
-- `observation.images.second_image` — second camera, 480×480 HWC uint8
-- `observation.images.wrist_image` — wrist camera, 480×480 HWC uint8
-
-**Actions:**
-
-- Continuous control in `Box(-1, 1, shape=(7,))` — 3D position + 3D Euler orientation + 1D gripper.
-
-## Training
-
-### Datasets
-
-Pre-collected VLABench datasets in LeRobot format on the Hub:
-
-- [`VLABench/vlabench_primitive_ft_lerobot_video`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/VLABench/vlabench_primitive_ft_lerobot_video) — 5,000 episodes, 128 tasks, 480×480 images.
-- [`VLABench/vlabench_composite_ft_lerobot_video`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/VLABench/vlabench_composite_ft_lerobot_video) — 5,977 episodes, 167 tasks, 224×224 images.
-
-### Example training command
-
-Fine-tune a SmolVLA base on the primitive suite:
-
-```bash
-lerobot-train \
-  --policy.type=smolvla \
-  --policy.repo_id=${HF_USER}/smolvla_vlabench_primitive \
-  --policy.load_vlm_weights=true \
-  --policy.push_to_hub=true \
-  --dataset.repo_id=VLABench/vlabench_primitive_ft_lerobot_video \
-  --env.type=vlabench \
-  --env.task=select_fruit \
-  --output_dir=./outputs/smolvla_vlabench_primitive \
-  --steps=100000 \
-  --batch_size=4 \
-  --eval_freq=5000 \
-  --eval.batch_size=1 \
-  --eval.n_episodes=1 \
-  --save_freq=10000
-```
-
-## Reproducing published results
-
-The released checkpoint [`lerobot/smolvla_vlabench`](https://huggingface.co/lerobot/smolvla_vlabench) was trained on the primitive-suite dataset above and is evaluated with the [Single-task](#single-task-evaluation-recommended-for-quick-iteration) / [Suite-wide](#suite-wide-evaluation) commands. CI runs a 10-primitive-task smoke eval (one episode each) on every PR touching the benchmark.

-"""Run a trained EE-space policy on SO100 (phone-trained) without recording.
-
-Mirrors ``examples/so100_to_so100_EE/rollout.py`` — the model was trained
-with phone teleoperation in EE space, so at deployment we only need the
-joint↔EE conversion on the robot side; the phone is not used.
-
-Uses :class:`BaseStrategy` (no recording) + :class:`SyncInferenceConfig`
-(inline policy call).  For recording during rollout, switch to Sentry,
-Highlight, or DAgger via ``lerobot-rollout --strategy.type=...``.
