I made Physical AutoResearch sound simple (conceptually), but it took a village to pull off and lots of design thinking into the robot /loopcraft. The hardest part is everything we need to setup *before* pressing Enter. Here's a behind-the-scene tour: 1. Safety harness Letting 8 robots run unattended overnight means safety has to be more than a hint in the system prompt. ENPIRE hardwires it in 2 layers: (1) hard kinematic limit that trips an immediate task failure and auto-resets as soon as a robot leaves its safety envelope, and (2) a torque-limited compliant gripper so a bad contact or misaligned insertion ends in a safe stall, instead of crushing the robot or the object at hand. We make safety more conservative than usual so humans can sleep tight. In reality, we still need a few human operators to watch over the "robots of loving grace". 2. Definition of /done An agent that can edit its own reward will game it for sure. ENPIRE fixes the goalposts before the fleet can move them. Here's the recipe: Collect a few minutes of success & failure demos -> Ask agent to write code using computer vision tools to classify success and measure against groundtruth -> Agent hill-climbs on classifier until reliably good -> This classifier becomes the real-time reward function that directly computes on sensor streams -> *Freeze* the reward function before AutoResearch. It's sacred, enshrined in a Gym env that no one can touch. 3. System telemetry design Robot-seconds is by far the scarcest resource, followed by GPU-seconds, and finally tokens. We instrument all three and surface them to ENPIRE for live resource awareness rather than letting it hill-climb in a vacuum. We define: - Mean Robot Utilization ("MRU"): the fraction of wall-clock time when the robot is actively executing an experiment. Otherwise the hardware is sitting idle and waiting for the next code commit. - Mean Token Utilization ("MTU"): tokens consumed per minute, our proxy for how hard the agent is actually thinking. A low MTU means the agent is stalled, waiting on a robot rollout to finish instead of doing research. - GPU utilization: fraction of wall-clock time when GPU is active. ... and evaluate on two budget-to-outcome metrics: 1. Tokens-to-Success: token budget the fleet burns to complete /goal. 2. Time-to-Success: wall-clock time to /goal· Physical AutoResearch 实现细节
