For chunked policies, reduce each `[T, A]` +chunk to one action per step with an `Ensembler`. + + +## Sim threading + +The loop is lockstep - the bridge steps the sim once per received action. A simulator is usually +**thread-affine** (every touch must run on the thread that created its GL/device context), but the +bridge's asyncio loop can't be stalled by a blocking step. **`SimRunner`** is the one-line injection +that decides *which thread* runs the sim; the bridge routes every sim touch through it: + +- **`InlineSimRunner`** - runs on the event-loop thread.

The environment ships as one standardized image that runs on any rollout infra like [Daytona](https://www.daytona.io/), [Modal](https://modal.com/), or [E2B](https://e2b.dev/), and a trainer needs only the rewards and a model API, so feeding rollouts into your own GRPO/PPO loop or a stack like [Tinker](https://thinkingmachines.ai/tinker/), [slime](https://github.com/THUDM/slime), or [Fireworks](https://fireworks.ai/) takes no environment-side glue. + AG <-->|capabilities| EN + EN -->|humans measure| EV["evaluation and benchmarking"] + EN -->|agent improves| TR["training"] -## The protocol + classDef node fill:#efece8,stroke:#2b2722,stroke-width:1px,color:#2b2722; + classDef task fill:#f3e6c8,stroke:#2b2722,stroke-width:1px,color:#2b2722; + classDef spacer fill:transparent,stroke:transparent,color:transparent; + class M,H,EV,TR node; + class T task; + class SP spacer; + style AG fill:transparent,stroke:#8a8580,stroke-width:1px; + style EN fill:transparent,stroke:#8a8580,stroke-width:1px; +``` -HUD is protocol-first.

+
+ **Environments should outlast the agents that run them.** + The systems an agent works on (a shell, a browser, a filesystem) have barely changed in a decade, + and the tasks built on them are just as stable. +
+
+ **Tasks should be generative, not declarative.** + A task definition should be like a template and span a *space* of challenges - exactly + the structure a synthetic pipeline needs. An entire benchmark like SWE-bench or Terminal-Bench + can live as one generative task definition + One environment holds any number of tasks; there's no separate image per task. +
+
+ **Everything except the environment and reward should be swappable.** + The model, the harness, the infra you run on - all yours to change. + HUD just hands the agent a direct connection to the environment (`ssh` for a shell, `cdp` for a browser, `rfb` for a screen, `robot` for a simulator) and returns a reward. +

It is **openpi-like** — it reuses openpi's wire format (msgpack with transparent, recursive numpy serialization) and flat observation/action naming (`observation/...` keys, `actions`) — but flips the roles: the **environment is the server** (owns the simulator, serves frames) and the **agent is the client** (runs the policy, streams actions back). On connect the env sends a metadata frame, then pushes observations; failures surface as a string traceback frame rather than a silent close. - -Everything below ships behind the `robot` extra (`pip install hud-python[robot]` — numpy + openpi-client). - -## Overview - -Integrating a policy against a robot environment means answering three questions: who owns the simulator, who runs the policy, and how do their spaces line up. The capability splits each answer into a small, named abstraction — implement the ones on your side, and the framework owns everything in between (the serve loop, the wire protocol, telemetry). - -**Environment side** — owns the simulator and serves frames: - -- **`RobotBridge`** — the one class you implement around your sim: `reset` / `step` / `get_observation`. The framework owns the WebSocket serve loop and the single-agent connection. -- **`RobotEndpoint`** — wraps the bridge for task definitions: episode bookkeeping and results. - -**Agent side** — runs the policy and streams actions: - -- **`RobotAgent`** — the episode-loop harness: connect to the env, read its schema, then `observe → infer → act` until the env terminates. -- **`Model`** — the policy seam: `infer(batch) -> action`. `LeRobotModel` wraps a stock LeRobot checkpoint. -- **`Adapter`** — the space-translation seam between what the env emits and what the policy consumes. `LeRobotAdapter` covers the common wiring. - -**The contract** — the one artifact both sides share: a self-describing JSON schema of the embodiment's observation and action spaces, carried in the capability's manifest params. The agent wires observations to policy inputs purely from the manifest; there is no shared config. - -Each side has a **realtime** variant (`RealtimeRobotBridge` / `RealtimeRobotAgent`) for when the sim clock must not wait on inference — the env advances on its own wall clock while the agent streams action chunks asynchronously. These live in the experimental scaffolding (`demos/experimental`, outside the published SDK) so they can iterate independently. - -The shape of the work follows from the split: a bridge is written **once per environment**, a model + adapter **once per policy**, and the contract tells you — before you run anything — whether a given pairing wires up. That's the path from "new checkpoint" to "scored episodes on a benchmark" in an afternoon. - -## Environment side - -You implement one class — the **bridge** owns the simulator; the framework owns the WebSocket serve loop and the single-agent connection: - -```python -from hud.environment.robot import RobotBridge - -class MySimBridge(RobotBridge): - async def reset(self, task_id: str, seed: int = 0) -> str: - ... # build the episode - await self._send_observation() # push the first frame - return self.task_description # becomes the task prompt - - def step(self, action) -> None: - ... # advance one tick; set success / terminated - - def get_observation(self): - return {"agentview_image": frame, "state": vec}, self.terminated -``` - -Observation dict keys must equal the contract's feature leaf-names. The bridge binds an **ephemeral loopback port** by default — its concrete address is published at serve time, and clients reach it through the control channel's [capability tunnel](/v6/reference/capabilities#bindings-are-always-reachable), so a robot container still publishes only one port. - -The **endpoint** wraps the bridge for episode control; each **template** is exactly two yields: - -```python -from hud import Environment -from hud.environment.robot import RobotEndpoint - -env = Environment(name="my-sim") -endpoint = RobotEndpoint(MySimBridge()) # the env drives the bridge only through the endpoint - -@env.initialize -async def _up(): - await endpoint.start() - env.add_capability(await endpoint.capability(contract=CONTRACT)) - -@env.shutdown -async def _down(): - await endpoint.stop() - -@env.template() -async def pick_and_place(task_id: str, seed: int = 0): - prompt = yield {"prompt": await endpoint.reset(task_id=task_id, seed=seed)} - yield await endpoint.result() # {"score", "success", "total_reward"} -``` - -This module is declare-only — serve it like any other environment (`hud serve env.py`, a container CMD, or `LocalRuntime("env.py")`). - - -A simulator that must **own the process main thread** (Isaac Sim / Omniverse) can't run under `hud serve`. Run the SDK server on a worker thread instead — `asyncio.run(hud.environment.server.serve(env, host, port))` in a thread, with a custom `SimRunner` that pumps sim work back to the main thread. - - -## Agent side - -The harness lives in `hud.agents.robot`. `RobotAgent` owns the episode loop — connect to the `robot` binding, read the contract, then `observe → infer → act` until the env terminates. You supply two seams: - -- **`Model`** — runs the policy (`infer(batch) -> action`). `LeRobotModel(policy, preprocess, postprocess)` ships the standard LeRobot inference sandwich. -- **`Adapter`** — translates env ↔ policy spaces. `LeRobotAdapter(model_image_keys=...)` maps the env's cameras onto the policy's image slots in contract order, converts HWC uint8 → CHW float, and passes state + prompt through. - -A stock LeRobot checkpoint is a complete agent in a few lines: - -```python -import torch -from lerobot.policies.factory import make_pre_post_processors -from lerobot.policies.pi05.modeling_pi05 import PI05Policy - -from hud.agents.robot.adapter import LeRobotAdapter -from hud.agents.robot.agent import RobotAgent -from hud.agents.robot.model import LeRobotModel - -class PI05Agent(RobotAgent): - def __init__(self): - device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu" - policy = PI05Policy.from_pretrained("lerobot/pi05_libero_finetuned").to(device).eval() - pre, post = make_pre_post_processors(policy.config, "lerobot/pi05_libero_finetuned", - preprocessor_overrides={"device_processor": {"device": device}}) - self.model = LeRobotModel(policy, pre, post) - self.adapter = LeRobotAdapter(model_image_keys=list(policy.config.image_features)) -``` - -Run it with the normal engine — `Taskset(...).run(agent, runtime=...)` — against any substrate serving the env. - -## The contract - -Robot observation and action spaces differ immensely. Embodiments disagree on camera count, resolution, and naming; on state representation (joint angles vs. EEF pose, quaternions vs. axis-angle, world frame vs. base frame); on action semantics (absolute vs. delta, position vs. velocity); on control rate. Policies are just as opinionated about what they consume and emit. Pairing *a specific model* with *a specific env* therefore always involves a wiring step — and getting it silently wrong (a transposed image, a reordered state vector) produces a policy that runs fine and scores zero. - -The **HUD robot spec** exists to make that wiring explicit and checkable. Each environment carries a contract — a JSON document describing the embodiment: `robot_type`, `control_rate`, and a `features` map where each feature declares its `role` (`observation` / `action`), `dtype`, `shape`, and ordering: - -```json -{ - "robot_type": "franka_panda_libero", - "control_rate": 10, - "features": { - "observation.images.agentview_image": {"role": "observation", "type": "rgb", "dtype": "uint8", "shape": [256, 256, 3]}, - "observation.state.robot0_eef_pos": {"role": "observation", "dtype": "float32", "shape": [3], "order": "0-2"}, - "action.delta_eef_pos": {"role": "action", "dtype": "float32", "shape": [3], "order": "0-2"} - } -} -``` - -The agent reads it back via `RobotClient.spaces()`, which splits features into action/observation spaces by `role` — this is what the `Adapter` wires against. The v0 schema is deliberately narrow: **one embodiment, one observation space, one action space per contract, every feature rank ≥ 1** (scalars are `[1]`). The full authoring spec — closed symbol sets for `state_type` / `state_representation` / `frame`, conventions, and the known traps — lives outside the SDK, alongside the contract corpus and the advisory matching/visualization tooling (`match`, `integration_review`, `render_match`). - -## Realtime control - -The default loop is lockstep — the sim waits for each action. The realtime path lives in the experimental scaffolding (`demos/experimental`, outside the published SDK), built on top of the SDK's `RobotBridge` / `RobotAgent`. `RealtimeRobotBridge` (`experimental.env`) decouples the sim clock from inference: it advances at `control_hz` on its own wall clock, popping actions from an injected **`ActionProvider`** while the agent streams whole action chunks asynchronously. Providers implement the merge strategy — `sync` (blocking baseline), `naive_async` (drop-and-replace), `weighted_async` (blended overlap), and `rtc` (real-time chunking with an execution horizon) — via `make_action_provider(mode, ...)`. On underrun the sim HOLDs (`no_op_action`) rather than freezing, because the real world doesn't pause for inference. - -On the agent side, **`RealtimeRobotAgent`** (`experimental.agent`) is the chunk-streaming counterpart: it reads the inference mode/threshold from the contract and replies with whole chunks via `RobotClient.send_chunk`. - -**`SimRunner`** selects which thread runs the (usually thread-affine) simulator: `InlineSimRunner` (event loop thread, the default) or `ThreadSimRunner` (dedicated worker — render-heavy sims). Subclass it for exotic topologies (e.g. a sim that owns main with the server on a worker). - -## Telemetry - -Zero-config: with HUD telemetry configured, `RobotAgent` streams one span per step — every camera frame the policy saw plus the executed action — and stamps **keyframes** where a fresh action chunk was inferred. The platform's trace viewer plays the episode back: scrub through all frames, with markers at each chunk-prediction decision point. - -## API summary - -| Symbol | Where | Role | -|--------|-------|------| -| `RobotEndpoint.capability(contract=...)` | `hud.environment.robot` | Build the `openpi/0` capability after `start()` | -| `Capability.robot(name, url, contract)` | `hud.capabilities` | Lower-level constructor (usually via `endpoint.capability`) | -| `RobotClient` | `hud.capabilities.robot` | Agent-side wire client (`spaces`, `get_observation`, `send_action`, `send_chunk`) | -| `RobotBridge` | `hud.environment.robot` | Env-side serve loop; subclass with your sim | -| `RealtimeRobotBridge` | `experimental.env` (`demos/experimental`) | Free-running realtime env-side bridge | -| `RobotEndpoint` | `hud.environment.robot` | Episode bookkeeping + results | -| `ActionProvider`, `make_action_provider` | `experimental.env` (`demos/experimental`) | Realtime chunk-merge strategies | -| `SimRunner` (`Inline`/`Thread`) | `hud.environment.robot` | Which thread runs the sim | -| `RobotAgent` | `hud.agents.robot` | The episode-loop harness | -| `RealtimeRobotAgent` | `experimental.agent` (`demos/experimental`) | Chunk-streaming realtime agent harness | -| `Model` / `LeRobotModel`, `Adapter` / `LeRobotAdapter` | `hud.agents.robot` | Policy + space-translation seams | - -## See also - - - - LIBERO in Docker, driven by pi0.5, end to end. - - - diff --git a/docs/v6/reference/tasks.mdx b/docs/v6/reference/tasks.mdx deleted file mode 100644 index 2457ba104..000000000 --- a/docs/v6/reference/tasks.mdx +++ /dev/null @@ -1,238 +0,0 @@ ---- -title: "Tasks & Tasksets" -description: "The Task, Taskset, Job, and SyncPlan API." -icon: "list-check" ---- - -A **`Task`** is a concrete, runnable data point: an environment plus a task id, -arguments, slug, and metadata.
