add-example-doc-model-env

name	add-example-doc-model-env
description	Adds example documentation for a new model or environment in RLinf (RST pages in the docs gallery for both English and Chinese). Use when adding a new embodied or reasoning example, or new benchmark (e.g. LIBERO, ManiSkill).

Add Example Doc to a Model or Environment

Use this skill when adding example documentation for a new model (e.g. π₀, GR00T, OpenVLA) or environment (e.g. LIBERO, ManiSkill, MetaWorld) in RLinf. Documentation is added for both English and Chinese.

Steps

1. Create the English RST file
   Examples are now grouped by category:

   • embodied/ – embodied RL/VLA examples (e.g. ManiSkill, LIBERO, Dexbotic, π₀, OpenSora)
   • agentic/ – agent / tool-use / coder / math reasoning examples (e.g. SearchR1, coding_online_rl, reasoning)
   • system/ – placement, scheduling, system demos
     Path pattern: docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/<category>/<name>.rst
   • Example (embodied): docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/embodied/dexbotic.rst
   • Example (agentic): docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/agentic/searchr1.rst
     Follow the structure of existing examples in the same category (see reference.md).

2. Register in the English category index
   The embodied gallery is split into five category index files that live directly under examples/ (not inside embodied/): simulators_index.rst (benchmark/simulator-centric), real_world_index.rst (real-robot hardware), vla_wam_index.rst (model-centric: π₀, GR00T, …), sft_index.rst (SFT recipes), and methods_index.rst (algorithm-centric: DAgger, RECAP, IQL, …). The example RST itself still lives at docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/embodied/<name>.rst; the index files reference it as embodied/<name>. Non-embodied categories (agentic, system) still use docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/<category>/index.rst.

   • Edit the matching index file (e.g. docs/source-en/rst_source/examples/vla_wam_index.rst for a new VLA model, or examples/<category>/index.rst for agentic/system).
   • Add an entry for <name> in the hidden .. toctree:: at the bottom (for embodied, prefixed: e.g. embodied/dexbotic).
   • Optionally add a gallery card in the correct section using the same HTML block pattern as existing cards (image, hyperlink to the rendered doc — embodied/<name>.html for embodied — short title + description).
     Note: The top-level examples/index.rst only links to the category indexes and usually does not need to be changed when adding a single example.

3. If it is an embodied evaluation environment
   In docs/source-en/rst_source/evaluations/index.rst or the relevant evaluation guide, add the new evaluation flow:

   • For embodied examples: :doc:\Display Name <../examples/embodied/``
   • For other categories, follow the existing pattern in that file and mirror the relative path used there.

4. Create the Chinese RST file
   Use the same <category> and <name> as in English:
   Path: docs/source-zh/rst_source/examples/<category>/<name>.rst.
   Mirror the English content (same structure and sections). Use existing EN/ZH pairs under the same category (e.g. embodied/libero.rst in both source-en and source-zh) as reference.

5. Register in the Chinese category index
   Edit the matching Chinese index file — for embodied, the same five split indexes under docs/source-zh/rst_source/examples/ (simulators_index.rst, real_world_index.rst, vla_wam_index.rst, sft_index.rst, methods_index.rst); for agentic/system, docs/source-zh/rst_source/examples/<category>/index.rst:

   • Add the same <name> entry to the hidden .. toctree::.
   • If you added a gallery card in the English index, add a matching Chinese gallery card here, following existing HTML patterns.
     If the Chinese evaluation docs list the same benchmark or environment, add the new example using the same relative path pattern as in English.

6. Update README.md
   In the "What's NEW!" section at the top, add a new dated bullet, with the documentation link pointing to the correct category path, e.g.:

   • - [YYYY/MM] 🔥 ... Doc: [Display Title](https://rlinf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/rst_source/examples/embodied/<name>.html).
     If the example is a simulator, model, or feature that appears in the Key Features table, add a corresponding list item in the right column using the same category path (see reference.md).

7. Update README.zh-CN.md
   In the "最新动态" section, add the same news item in Chinese with the doc link using /zh-cn/ and the correct category path, for example:

   • https://rlinf.readthedocs.io/zh-cn/latest/rst_source/examples/embodied/<name>.html
     If you added a feature list entry in README.md, add the same entry in README.zh-CN.md (Chinese display text, zh-cn in the link, and the same <category> segment).

RST structure (concise)

• Title (overbar length matches title).
• Optional HuggingFace icon block (copy from libero.rst).
• Short intro (what this example does, which model + env).
• Environment: env name, task, observation/action space, task description format, data shapes.
• Algorithm: PPO/GRPO/etc. and model architecture notes.
• Dependency Installation: clone, install (Docker or pip).
• Quick Start: exact commands and key YAML/config snippets.
• Evaluation (if applicable): eval command and config notes.

Use existing examples in the same category (e.g. embodied/libero.rst, embodied/pi0.rst, agentic/searchr1.rst) as templates; see reference.md for a minimal template.
