NeMo Agent Toolkit Optimization
Use this skill when improving workflow quality through nat optimize.
Workflow
- Fix workflow correctness issues before optimizing.
- Size the run and explain the chosen
n_trials, parallelism, and stopping behavior.
- Use separate evaluators for separate quality dimensions.
- Run
nat optimize with a generous timeout.
- Inspect output artifacts before writing tuned values back to workflow YAML.
Guardrail
Do not kill nat optimize mid-run unless the user asks. It writes final artifacts when the study finishes cleanly.
