+
+## News
+
+- **2026.3.12.** We are excited to release <font color="#DC143C">RAGEN-2</font>! We introduce a systematic study of reasoning collapse in agent RL and lightweight interventions for stable training. See the [<font color="#DC143C">v2 paper</font>](https://ragen-ai.github.io/v2).
+- **2025.4.20.** RAGEN V1 [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.20073) published on arXiv.
+- **2025.1.27.** Initial RAGEN release. [Post](https://x.com/wzihanw/status/1884092805598826609).
+
+
+## About
+
+RAGEN is built around **StarPO** (**S**tate-**T**hinking-**A**ctions-**R**eward **P**olicy **O**ptimization), a unified RL framework for training multi-turn, trajectory-level agents with flexible control over reasoning processes, reward assignment mechanisms, and prompt-rollout structures.
+
+**RAGEN is flexible with:**
+
+- **StarPO framework.** Unified optimization for multi-turn agents, supporting both trajectory-level and turn-wise training.
+- **10 built-in environments.** Sokoban, FrozenLake, WebShop, DeepCoder, SearchQA, Lean, Bandit, Countdown, MetaMathQA, Sudoku.
+- **Gym-compatible interface.** Easy to add custom environments.
+
+**<font color="#DC143C">RAGEN-2</font> additionally introduces:**
+
+- **SNR-Adaptive Filtering (<font color="#DC143C">V2</font>).** Lightweight rollout filtering based on reward variance to mitigate noisy gradient updates.
+- **Reasoning collapse diagnostics (<font color="#DC143C">V2</font>).** Mutual information proxy metrics to detect and monitor template collapse during training.
+
+
+## Algorithm
+
+### StarPO: Reinforcing Reasoning via Trajectory-Level Optimization
+
+<p align="center"><img src="public/starpo_logo.png" width="800px" alt="StarPO Framework" /></p>
+<p align="center" style="font-size: 16px; max-width: 800px; margin: 0 auto;">
+The StarPO (State-Thinking-Action-Reward Policy Optimization) framework with two interleaved stages: <b>rollout stage</b> and <b>update stage</b>. The LLM generates reasoning-guided actions to interact with the environment, collecting trajectory-level rewards to jointly optimize reasoning and action strategies.
+</p>
+
+**MDP Formulation.** Agent-environment interactions are formulated as Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) where states and actions are token sequences, allowing LLMs to reason over environment dynamics. The objective is to maximize expected cumulative rewards across multiple interaction turns.
+
+**Rollout Stage.** Given an initial state, the LLM generates multiple trajectories. At each step, the model produces a reasoning-guided action: `<think>...</think><ans> action </ans>`. The environment returns feedback (reward and next state).
+
+**Update Stage.** StarPO optimizes entire trajectories using importance sampling. It supports:
+- **PPO.** Token-level advantage estimation via a value function over trajectories.
+- **GRPO.** Normalized reward assigned to the full trajectory.
+
+### <font color="#DC143C">V2</font>: Diagnosing Template Collapse
+
+Entropy alone cannot detect *template collapse*, where reasoning appears diverse within a single input but becomes input-agnostic across inputs. <font color="#DC143C">RAGEN-2</font> decomposes reasoning quality into two axes:
+- **Within-input diversity:** Conditional Entropy H(Z|X)
+- **Cross-input distinguishability:** Mutual Information I(X;Z)
+
+SNR-Adaptive Filtering uses reward variance as a lightweight proxy to select high-signal prompts each iteration, directly addressing the root cause of template collapse.
+
+
+## Update Log
+
+**2026.3.12.** <font color="#DC143C">RAGEN-2</font> is released! Check out our [<font color="#DC143C">v2 paper</font>](https://ragen-ai.github.io/v2).
+
+<details>
+<summary>Older updates</summary>
+
+**2025.5.8.** Official [Documentation](https://ragen-doc.readthedocs.io/) released. NOTE: this document is now outdated.
+
+**2025.5.2.** A [tracking document](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bg7obeiKTExuHHBl5uOiSpec5uLDZ2Tgvxy6li5pHX4/edit?usp=sharing) for logging minor codebase updates is released.
+
+**2025.4.20.** RAGEN V1 [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.20073) published. Codebase restructured: veRL integrated as a submodule; architecture decomposed into three modules — Environment State Manager, Context Manager, and Agent Proxy.
+
+**2025.3.13.** RAGEN codebase refactoring underway. See the [developing branch](https://github.com/ZihanWang314/RAGEN/tree/main-new).
+
+**2025.3.8.** KL term issue in veRL [fixed](https://github.com/volcengine/verl/pull/179/files). Default advantage estimator changed to GAE (PPO) for more stable training.
+
+**2025.1.27.** Initial RAGEN release. [Post](https://x.com/wzihanw/status/1884092805598826609).
+
+</details>
+
+
+## Getting Started
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/mll-lab-nu/RAGEN.git
+cd RAGEN
+conda create -n ragen python=3.12 -y && conda activate ragen
+bash scripts/setup_ragen.sh
+```
+
+Use `bash scripts/setup_ragen.sh --with-search` to include the search environment. For WebShop, see [docs/experiment_webshop_release.md](docs/experiment_webshop_release.md).
+
+### The Four Reasoning Regimes
+
+<font color="#DC143C">RAGEN-2</font> diagnoses agent behavior along two axes — **within-input diversity** (Conditional Entropy) and **cross-input distinguishability** (Mutual Information) — yielding four distinct reasoning regimes:
+
+<p align="center"><img src="public/teaser.png" width="800px" alt="Four reasoning regimes: diverse reasoning, template collapse, compressed reasoning, low-entropy collapse" /></p>
+<p align="center" style="font-size: 15px; max-width: 800px; margin: 0 auto;">
+<b>Left:</b> Input-driven reasoning adapts to the current state; templated reasoning produces nearly identical responses across different inputs. <b>Right:</b> Four reasoning regimes along two axes — conditional entropy H(Z|X) (within-input diversity) and mutual information I(X;Z) (input dependence). Template collapse (high entropy, low MI) is invisible to existing entropy-based metrics.
+</p>
+
+**Train (no filter, default):**
+```bash
+python train.py --config-name _2_sokoban
+```
+
+**Train with SNR-Adaptive Filtering (<font color="#DC143C">V2</font>, Top-p):**
+```bash
+python train.py --config-name _2_sokoban \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout_filter_strategy=top_p \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_value=0.9
+```
+
+**Evaluate:**
+```bash
+python -m ragen.llm_agent.agent_proxy --config-name _2_sokoban
+```
+
+SNR-Adaptive Filtering consistently improves training across algorithms, model scales, and modalities (green = gain from filtering):
+
+<p align="center"><img src="public/main_results.png" width="800px" alt="Main results: filtering vs no filtering" /></p>
+
+See the [Rollout Filtering Guide](docs/guide_rollout_filtering.md) for more filtering strategies (Top-k, linear mode, etc.).
+
+

+# DeepCoder Experiment Runs
+
+## Command Snippets Overview
+
+| Condition | Purpose | Variables |
+|--------|---------|-----------|
+| `GRPO top-p 1.0` | Full-retention baseline under linear top-p filtering | `rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`, `rollout_filter_value=1`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` |
+| `GRPO top-p 0.9` | Stronger reward-variance filtering with adaptive retention | `rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`, `rollout_filter_value=0.9`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=False` |
+| `GRPO top-k 0.25` | Fixed-budget filtering that keeps the top 25% of train groups | `rollout_filter_strategy=top_k`, `rollout_filter_value=0.25`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` |
+
+All three command snippets run DeepCoder with `Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B`, `GRPO`, and single-turn code generation.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Top-p 1.0 (`Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-p-1`)
+
+Uses linear top-p filtering with `rollout_filter_value=1`.
+
+Goal:
+- Establish a full-retention baseline while keeping the same reward-variance ranking machinery as the filtered runs
+
+Key Details:
+- Filtering uses `top_p`, `largest`, `reward_variance`, and `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=linear`
+- `rollout_filter_value=1` with `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` keeps the full train-group pool under linear top-p selection, so this is the closest thing to a no-filter baseline in `deepcoder_lines`
+- `actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_ref=False` and `actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_kl_loss=False` remove reference-policy KL from training
+- The run budget is `200` training steps with checkpoints every `20` steps
+
+Source:
+- `docs/deepcoder_lines`, lines `1-89`
+
+Outputs:
+- W&B project: `deepcoder_RAGEN_final_3`
+- Run name: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-p-1`
+
+---
+
+## 2. Top-p 0.9 (`Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-p-0.9`)
+
+Uses the same linear top-p filter, but keeps only the highest-variance groups whose score mass reaches `0.9`.
+
+Goal:
+- Increase reward-variance filtering strength while keeping the rest of the GRPO setup fixed
+
+Key Details:
+- Filtering again uses `top_p`, `largest`, `reward_variance`, and `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=linear`
+- `rollout_filter_value=0.9` makes retention adaptive: the number of kept groups depends on how reward variance is distributed across the `16` train groups
+- `rollout_filter_include_zero=False` excludes zero-variance groups from selection
+- Because `rollout_filter_type=largest`, the filter prioritizes groups with the highest within-group reward variance
+
+Source:
+- `docs/deepcoder_lines`, lines `93-181`
+
+Outputs:
+- W&B project: `deepcoder_RAGEN_final_3`
+- Run name: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-p-0.9`
+
+---
+
+## 3. Top-k 0.25 (`Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-k-0.25`)
+
+Switches from adaptive top-p filtering to fixed-fraction top-k filtering.
+
+Goal:
+- Compare adaptive top-p filtering against a fixed keep-top-25% regime
+
+Key Details:
+- `rollout_filter_strategy=top_k` with `rollout_filter_value=0.25` keeps `int(0.25 * 16) = 4` train groups per step
+- With `es_manager.train.group_size=8`, this corresponds to at most `32` kept rollouts per training step after filtering
+- `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` means zero-variance groups are still part of the ranking pool, but only the top `4` groups survive
+- `rollout_filter_type=largest` means those `4` groups are chosen by highest reward variance
+
+Source:
+- `docs/deepcoder_lines`, lines `185-273`
+
+Outputs:
+- W&B project: `deepcoder_RAGEN_final_3`
+- Run name: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-200-GRPO-top-k-0.25`
+
+---
+
+## Common Notes
+
+- Source format:
+  - `docs/deepcoder_lines` is a collection of three standalone bash snippets, not a parameterized sweep script
+  - The file defines both `USE_GRPO` and `USE_PPO`, but all three `python train.py` commands actually expand `$USE_GRPO`

+# FrozenLake Slipper Sweep Runs
+
+This doc covers the experiment script for the FrozenLake slipper-rate sweep.
+
+## Scripts Overview
+
+| Script | Purpose | Variables |
+|--------|---------|-----------|
+| `run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh` | Sweep FrozenLake stochasticity while comparing `filter` vs `nofilter` | `slipper_rate` (`100,50,20,10,5,2,0` by default), `filter`/`nofilter` |
+
+The script runs FrozenLake with `Qwen2.5-3B`, `GAE`.
+
+---
+
+## 1. FrozenLake Slipper Sweep (`run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh`)
+
+Tracks how `filter` and `nofilter` success rates change as FrozenLake stochasticity varies via `slipper_rate`, using project `ragen_release_frozenlake_slipper_rate_sweep`.
+
+Goal:
+- Test whether RV-style filtering remains helpful as FrozenLake transition randomness changes
+
+Key Details:
+- `slipper_rate` is normalized to a ratio in `[0, 1]`, and the environment is configured with `success_rate = 1 - slipper_rate`
+- Default comparison modes are both `filter` and `nofilter`
+- This script explicitly fixes `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+- Mode mapping:
+  - `filter`: `top_p=0.9` by default and `rollout_filter_include_zero=False`
+  - `nofilter`: `top_p=1.0` by default and `rollout_filter_include_zero=True`
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--steps` (default: `400`)
+- `--slipper-rate` (comma list; accepts `100,50,20,10,5,2,0`, `1.0,0.5,...`, or `%`-suffixed values)
+- `--filter-modes` (comma list; `filter`, `nofilter`, or both; default: both)
+- `--filter-top-p` (default: `0.9`)
+- `--nofilter-top-p` (default: `1.0`)
+- `--gpus` (comma list; auto-detect if omitted)
+- `--gpus-per-exp` (default: `1`)
+- `--ray-num-cpus` (default: `16`)
+- `--cooldown` (default: `30`)
+- `--gpu-memory-utilization` (default: `0.5`)
+- `--save-freq` (default: `-1`)
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Run the full default sweep
+bash scripts/runs/run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh
+
+# Run only `nofilter` on a custom subset of slipper rates
+bash scripts/runs/run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh --slipper-rate 50,20,5 --filter-modes nofilter --gpus 0 --cooldown 30 --ray-num-cpus 8
+
+# Run one `filter` and one `nofilter` 50%-slipper experiment on 4xH100 each
+bash scripts/runs/run_frozen_lake_slipper_rate_sweep.sh --slipper-rate 50 --gpus-per-exp 4 --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-run logs: `logs/frozenlake_slipper_rate_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B/<mode>/slip<label>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/frozenlake_slipper_rate_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B.log`
+
+---
+
+## Common Notes
+
+- Shared setup:
+  - Config: `_3_frozen_lake`
+  - Model: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B`
+  - `algorithm.adv_estimator=gae`
+  - `trainer.total_training_steps=400`
+  - `trainer.save_freq=-1`
+  - `trainer.logger=['console','wandb']`
+  - `trainer.val_before_train=True`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.loss_agg_mode=token-mean`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_kl_loss=False`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.kl_loss_type=low-var-kl`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.kl_loss_coef=0`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.entropy_coeff=0`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.entropy_from_logits_with_chunking=True`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.filter_loss_scaling=none`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.ppo_mini_batch_size=32`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.ppo_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=4`
+  - `critic.ppo_mini_batch_size=32`
+  - `critic.ppo_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=4`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.ref.log_prob_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=8`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.log_prob_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=8`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_type=largest`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gpu_memory_utilization=0.5`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.checkpoint.save_contents=[model]`
+  - `critic.checkpoint.save_contents=[model]`
+- Input and naming conventions:
+  - `slipper_rate` accepts `50`, `0.5`, and `50%` as equivalent inputs
+  - Experiment labels use `slip<label>` with compact decimal formatting
+  - Examples: `50% -> slip0p5`, `2% -> slip0p02`
+- Comparison protocol:
+  - Each slipper rate is run under both `filter` and `nofilter` unless `--filter-modes` restricts the set
+  - With `--gpus-per-exp 4`, a 4-GPU list runs one experiment at a time; an 8-GPU list can run one `filter` and one `nofilter` experiment in parallel
+- Base-config inheritance:
+  - `algorithm.kl_ctrl.kl_coef` is not overridden in this script

+
+---
+
+## 1. Top-p Sweep (`run_top_p_sweep.sh`)
+
+Scans `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_value` on Sokoban.
+
+Goal:
+- Isolate the effect of RV-filter strength while keeping KL and entropy lightly enabled at `0.001`
+
+Key Details:
+- Reward-variance filtering scores each env group by the standard deviation of rollout rewards within the group
+- Selection uses `top_p`, `largest`, `reward_variance`, and explicitly fixes `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+- Filtered groups are dropped as whole groups, and this sweep keeps `filter_loss_scaling=none`
+- `1.0` and `nofilter` are different conditions: `1.0` still uses `include_zero=False`, while `nofilter` sets `include_zero=True`
+
+Options:
+- `--steps` (default: `400`)
+- `--rollout_filter_value` (comma list; default: `1.0,0.98,0.95,0.9,0.8,0.6,0.4,nofilter`)
+- `--gpus` (comma list; auto-detect if omitted)
+- `--gpus-per-exp` (default: `1`)
+- `--ray-num-cpus` (default: `16`)
+- `--gpu-memory-utilization` (default: `0.5`)
+- `--save-freq` (default: `-1`)
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Run the full default sweep
+bash scripts/runs/run_top_p_sweep.sh
+
+# Run one `0.9` point and one `nofilter` point on 4xH100 each
+bash scripts/runs/run_top_p_sweep.sh --rollout_filter_value 0.9,nofilter --gpus-per-exp 4 --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-value logs: `logs/top_p_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B/<value_label>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/top_p_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B.log`
+
+---
+
+## 2. KL Sweep (`run_kl_sweep.sh`)
+
+Scans `actor_rollout_ref.actor.kl_loss_coef` on Sokoban.
+
+Goal:
+- Isolate the effect of KL regularization while fixing entropy to `0` and keeping RV-filter effectively off with `rollout_filter_value=1`
+
+Key Details:
+- KL is computed token-wise between the current policy and a frozen reference policy worker
+- This sweep uses the actor KL loss, not reward-level KL shaping
+- When `kl_loss_coef=0`, the script also sets `use_kl_loss=False`, so the ref-policy forward pass is skipped
+- Increasing `kl_loss_coef` penalizes drift from the reference policy more strongly
+
+Options:
+- `--steps` (default: `400`)
+- `--kl-values` (comma list; default: `0,0.001,0.003,0.01,0.03,0.1`)
+- `--rollout_filter_include_zero` (bool; default: `True`)
+- `--gpus` (comma list; auto-detect if omitted)
+- `--gpus-per-exp` (default: `1`)
+- `--ray-num-cpus` (default: `16`)
+- `--gpu-memory-utilization` (default: `0.5`)
+- `--save-freq` (default: `-1`)
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Run the full default sweep
+bash scripts/runs/run_kl_sweep.sh
+
+# Run two KL points on 4xH100 each, with zero-variance groups excluded
+bash scripts/runs/run_kl_sweep.sh --kl-values 0,0.01 --rollout_filter_include_zero False --gpus-per-exp 4 --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-value logs: `logs/kl_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B/<filter_tag>/<value_label>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/kl_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B.log`
+
+---
+
+## 3. Entropy Sweep (`run_entropy_sweep.sh`)
+
+Scans `actor_rollout_ref.actor.entropy_coeff` on Sokoban.
+
+Goal:
+- Isolate the effect of entropy regularization while fixing KL to `0` and keeping RV-filter effectively off with `rollout_filter_value=1`
+
+Key Details:
+- Entropy is computed token-wise over the full vocabulary on response tokens
+- Aggregation is `token-mean`, so the sweep compares average token-level exploration pressure
+- The entropy term enters the actor loss with a negative sign, so larger `entropy_coeff` encourages more exploration
+- The script keeps `entropy_from_logits_with_chunking=True`, so large-vocabulary entropy is computed in a memory-friendly way
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_entropy_sweep.sh
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--steps` (default: `400`)
+- `--entropy-values` (comma list; default: `0,0.001,0.003,0.01,0.03,0.1`)
+- `--rollout_filter_include_zero` (bool; default: `True`)
+- `--gpus` (comma list; auto-detect if omitted)
+- `--gpus-per-exp` (default: `1`)
+- `--ray-num-cpus` (default: `16`)
+- `--gpu-memory-utilization` (default: `0.5`)
+- `--save-freq` (default: `-1`)
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Run the full default sweep
+bash scripts/runs/run_entropy_sweep.sh
+
+# Run two entropy points on 4xH100 each, with zero-variance groups excluded
+bash scripts/runs/run_entropy_sweep.sh --entropy-values 0,0.01 --rollout_filter_include_zero False --gpus-per-exp 4 --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-value logs: `logs/entropy_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B/<filter_tag>/<value_label>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/entropy_sweep_Qwen2.5-3B.log`
+
+---
+
+## Common Notes
+
+- Comparability protocol:
+  - The three Sokoban sweeps change only one intervention axis at a time
+  - Top-p sweep scans RV-filter while fixing `use_kl_loss=True`, `kl_loss_coef=0.001`, and `entropy_coeff=0.001`
+  - KL sweep scans `kl_loss_coef` while keeping entropy off and filtering off
+  - Entropy sweep scans `entropy_coeff` while keeping KL off and filtering off
+- Training budget and early stopping:
+  - Each condition runs for at most `400` PPO steps with `8` train env groups and `16` rollouts per group
+  - Runs may stop early if reward variance collapses for long enough or if validation success stays below the failure threshold for repeated validations
+  - Early stopping is part of the comparison protocol: if a setting stops early, that run is treated as a failed training regime rather than a fully budgeted run
+- Shared setup across all three sweeps:
+  - Config: `_2_sokoban`
+  - Model: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B`
+  - `algorithm.adv_estimator=gae`
+  - `trainer.total_training_steps=400`
+  - `trainer.save_freq=-1`
+  - `trainer.logger=['console','wandb']`
+  - `trainer.val_before_train=True`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.filter_loss_scaling=none`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.ppo_mini_batch_size=32`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.actor.ppo_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=4`
+  - `critic.ppo_mini_batch_size=32`
+  - `critic.ppo_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=4`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.ref.log_prob_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=8`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.log_prob_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=8`
+  - `es_manager.train.env_groups=8`, `es_manager.train.group_size=16`
+  - `es_manager.val.env_groups=512`, `es_manager.val.group_size=1`
+- Rollout filter settings used by these sweeps:
+  - `rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`
+  - `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+  - `rollout_filter_type=largest`
+  - `rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+- Top-p sweep uses two distinct `top_p=1.0` conditions:
+  - `1.0`: `rollout_filter_value=1.0`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=False`
+  - `nofilter`: `rollout_filter_value=1.0`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=True`
+- KL sweep and Entropy sweep default to `rollout_filter_include_zero=True`; if you pass `--rollout_filter_include_zero False`, logs are written under `filter_zero/` instead of `nofilter/`
+- You can run a single sweep point on `4xH100` by setting `--gpus-per-exp 4` and passing a 4-GPU list, or run two sweep points in parallel by passing an 8-GPU list

+
+Outputs:
+- Per-task logs: `logs/diff_size_<task>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/diff_size_PPO.log`

+## 3. Different Model Types (`run_main_table_diff_model.sh`)
+
+Compares different model types (Instruct, Reasoning) using PPO.
+

+```
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-task logs: `logs/diff_model_<task>/`
+- Summary log: `logs/diff_model_PPO.log`
+
+---
+
+## Common Notes
+
+- Effective rollout filter config for main-table runs:
+  - `rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`
+  - `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+  - `rollout_filter_type=largest`
+  - `rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+  - `rollout_filter_include_zero=True`
+- Filter mode mapping:
+  - `filter`: `top_p=0.9`, `include_zero=True`
+  - `nofilter`: `top_p=1.0`, `include_zero=True`
+- Because `include_zero=True`, `nofilter` (`top_p=1.0`) keeps all groups; it does not disable the filter code path, but it is effectively "no filtering" for the batch
+- You can run a single experiment on `4xH100` by setting `--gpus-per-exp 4` and passing a 4-GPU list, or run one `filter` and one `nofilter` experiment in parallel by passing an 8-GPU list

+# Search Environment Experiments
+
+This doc covers the experiment scripts for the Search (HotpotQA + Dense Retrieval) environment.
+
+## Overview
+
+All experiments use:
+- **Task**: SearchQA (HotpotQA multi-hop QA with Wikipedia dense retrieval)
+- **Model**: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct`
+- **Algorithm**: PPO (`algorithm.adv_estimator=gae`)
+- **Config**: `_9_search`
+
+The sweep compares three rollout filtering strategies while keeping all other hyperparameters fixed.
+
+| Experiment | Filter Strategy | Filter Value | Effective Batch | Description |
+|-----------|----------------|-------------|----------------|-------------|
+| No Filter | `top_p` | `1.0` | 128 | Baseline: all rollout groups kept |
+| TopK 0.25 | `top_k` | `0.25` | 32 | Keep top 25% groups by reward variance |
+| TopP 0.9 | `top_p` | `0.9` | ~115 | Keep groups covering 90% cumulative reward variance |
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### 1. Prepare data
+
+```bash
+# HotpotQA train/val parquet
+python scripts/prepare_search_data.py
+
+# Wikipedia corpus + FAISS index (~74GB)
+python scripts/download_search_index.py
+```
+
+### 2. Start retrieval server
+
+The retrieval server provides dense retrieval over ~21M Wikipedia passages using E5-base-v2 + FAISS.
+
+```bash
+python scripts/retrieval/server.py \
+    --data_dir ./search_data/prebuilt_indices \
+    --port 8000 --host 127.0.0.1 \
+    --device cuda:0 --gpu_memory_limit_mb 6144
+```
+
+**Important**: We recommend running the retrieval server on a **dedicated GPU** not used by training, or on CPU. Sharing a GPU with vLLM rollout and training causes CUDA OOM errors due to memory contention between processes.
+
+---
+
+## Experiment Scripts
+
+All experiments use `scripts/runs/run_search_benchmark.sh`.
+
+### Experiment 1: PPO + No Filter (baseline)
+
+No filtering — all rollout groups are used for training.
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_search_benchmark.sh \
+    --algos PPO \
+    --filter-strategy top_p --filter-value 1.0 \
+    --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 --gpus-per-exp 8 \
+    --micro-batch 4 --mini-batch 64 \
+    --gpu-memory-utilization 0.65 \
+    --save-freq 20 --steps 200 \
+    --retrieval-port 8000
+```
+
+### Experiment 2: PPO + TopK=0.25
+
+Keep only the top 25% of rollout groups ranked by reward variance.
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_search_benchmark.sh \
+    --algos PPO \
+    --filter-strategy top_k --filter-value 0.25 \
+    --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 --gpus-per-exp 8 \
+    --micro-batch 4 --mini-batch 32 \
+    --gpu-memory-utilization 0.65 \
+    --save-freq 20 --steps 200 \
+    --retrieval-port 8000
+```
+
+Note: `mini-batch` is reduced to 32 because effective batch after filtering is `16 groups * 8 group_size * 0.25 = 32`. The `ppo_mini_batch_size` must not exceed this value.
+
+### Experiment 3: PPO + TopP=0.9
+
+Keep rollout groups covering the top 90% cumulative reward variance (softmax-weighted).
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_search_benchmark.sh \
+    --algos PPO \
+    --filter-strategy top_p --filter-value 0.9 \
+    --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 --gpus-per-exp 8 \
+    --micro-batch 4 --mini-batch 64 \
+    --gpu-memory-utilization 0.65 \
+    --save-freq 20 --steps 200 \
+    --retrieval-port 8000
+```

+
+## Common Notes
+
+- **Retrieval server GPU deployment**: Place the E5 retrieval server on a **dedicated GPU** not used by training. Co-locating with training on the same GPU causes CUDA OOM due to memory contention between vLLM, training, and the E5 server process. Do not use CPU mode — during rollout, hundreds of environments issue concurrent retrieval requests (256 env groups can produce 1000+ requests), and CPU cannot keep up.
+- **mini-batch size adjustment**: When using aggressive filtering (e.g., `top_k=0.25`), reduce `ppo_mini_batch_size` so it does not exceed `env_groups * group_size * filter_value`. Otherwise training fails with an assertion error.
+- **max_model_len**: Default is 5000 (in `_9_search.yaml`). The TopK=0.25 experiment used 4000 to save KV cache memory; the No Filter and TopP=0.9 experiments use the default 5000.
+- **Checkpoint size**: Each checkpoint is ~35GB (model + optimizer, 8 FSDP shards). With `save_freq=20` and 200 steps, expect 10 checkpoints (~350GB). Monitor disk usage and delete old checkpoints as needed.

+# Sokoban Gradient Analysis Runs
+
+This doc covers the helper scripts for the Sokoban top-p=0.9 gradient-analysis experiments.
+
+For the internal execution order, metric definitions, and plotting workflow, see [guide_gradient_analysis.md](guide_gradient_analysis.md).
+
+## Scripts Overview
+
+| Script | Purpose | When to use |
+|--------|---------|-------------|
+| `run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh` | Train Sokoban with periodic gradient-analysis passes | Run this first to produce training logs and checkpoints |
+| `run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh` | Resume a saved checkpoint and run one analysis-only probe | Run this after the training script when you want to inspect a specific checkpoint |
+
+Both scripts run Sokoban with `Qwen2.5-3B`, reward-variance top-p filtering at `0.9`, and a separate gradient-analysis batch of `128x16`.
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Workflow
+
+1. Start with `run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh`.
+- This is the script that actually trains the policy, runs periodic gradient analysis, and writes the checkpoint layout that the probe script expects by default.
+
+2. Choose a saved `global_step_*` checkpoint.
+- The probe helper defaults to `global_step_101` under the checkpoint directory layout produced by the training script.
+- If your run saved a different step, pass `--checkpoint-step` or `--resume-from-path`.
+
+3. Run `run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh`.
+- This reloads the checkpoint, runs one gradient-analysis pass, optionally performs a validation first, and then exits.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Periodic Training + Analysis (`run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh`)
+
+Trains Sokoban and inserts gradient-analysis passes during training.
+
+Goal:
+- Follow the filtered Sokoban setup while logging gradient-analysis metrics at a fixed cadence on a larger analysis batch.
+
+Key Details:
+- Validation runs once before training and then every `10` steps.
+- Gradient analysis runs every `50` steps. With the default `101` steps, the trigger points are `1`, `51`, and `101`.
+- The normal training batch is `8` env groups x `16` samples.
+- Gradient analysis uses a separate batch of `128` env groups x `16` samples.
+- The run continues after analysis because `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=False`.
+- This script uses `top_p=0.9`, `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=linear`, `rollout_filter_type=largest`, `rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`, and `rollout_filter_include_zero=False`.
+- `--algo PPO` selects `algorithm.adv_estimator=gae` and `actor_rollout_ref.actor.loss_agg_mode=token-mean`.
+- `--algo GRPO` selects `algorithm.adv_estimator=grpo`, `algorithm.norm_adv_by_std_in_grpo=True`, and `actor_rollout_ref.actor.loss_agg_mode=seq-mean-token-mean`.
+- The training helper keeps `actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_kl_loss=False`, so it is meant for filtered training with periodic analysis rather than a KL-regularized sweep.
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Default PPO run
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh

+Outputs:
+- Per-run log: `logs/gradient_analysis_sokoban_Qwen2.5-3B/<exp_name>.log`
+- Checkpoints: `model_saving/gradient_analysis/sokoban/<ALGO>/filter/<exp_name>/`
+- W&B project: `ragen_gradient_analysis`
+
+---
+
+## 2. Checkpoint Probe (`run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh`)
+
+Resumes a saved checkpoint and runs one gradient-analysis-only probe.
+
+Goal:
+- Inspect one checkpoint without continuing the normal training run.
+
+Key Details:
+- The script resumes from an existing `global_step_*` directory with `trainer.resume_mode=resume_path`.
+- It runs in probe mode with `trainer.gradient_analysis_only=True`.
+- It exits after the analysis pass because `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`.
+- By default it does not run validation first; add `--with-val` if you want a pre-probe validation.
+- It uses the same Sokoban task, model, filter setup, and analysis batch shape as the training helper.
+- Unlike the training helper, this probe sets `actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_kl_loss=True` together with `kl_loss_coef=0.001` and `entropy_coeff=0.001`, so the checkpoint probe explicitly logs KL and entropy gradient components.
+- If `--resume-from-path` is given, that exact checkpoint directory is used. Otherwise the script resolves `<checkpoint-root>/global_step_<checkpoint-step>`.
+
+Examples:
+```bash
+# Probe the default checkpoint layout produced by the training helper
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh
+
+# Probe a specific saved step with validation
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh \
+  --checkpoint-step 51 \
+  --with-val \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3
+
+# Probe an exact checkpoint path
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis_probe_ckpt.sh \
+  --resume-from-path model_saving/gradient_analysis/sokoban/PPO/filter/<exp_name>/global_step_101 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3
+```
+
+Options:
+- `--algo NAME` (`PPO` or `GRPO`; default: `PPO`)
+- `--checkpoint-step` (default: `101`)
+- `--checkpoint-root DIR` (default: derived from the training helper's checkpoint layout)
+- `--resume-from-path DIR` (exact `global_step_*` directory; overrides root + step resolution)
+- `--with-val` (flag; default: off)
+- `--gpus` (comma list; auto-detect if omitted)
+- `--gpu-memory-utilization` (default: `0.3`)
+- `--ray-num-cpus` (default: `16`)
+- `--ppo-micro-batch-size-per-gpu` (default: `4`)
+- `--log-prob-micro-batch-size-per-gpu` (default: `4`)
+
+Outputs:
+- Per-run log: `logs/gradient_analysis_probe_sokoban_Qwen2.5-3B/<exp_name>.log`
+- Probe output dir: `model_saving/gradient_analysis_probe/sokoban/<ALGO>/filter/<exp_name>/`
+- W&B project: `ragen_gradient_analysis_probe`
+

+
+## Common Notes
+
+- Shared fixed setup:
+  - config: `_2_sokoban`
+  - model: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B`
+  - training batch: `es_manager.train.env_groups=8`, `es_manager.train.group_size=16`
+  - analysis batch: `trainer.gradient_analysis_env_groups=128`, `trainer.gradient_analysis_group_size=16`
+  - `trainer.gradient_analysis_log_prefilter=True`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_num_buckets=6`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_bucket_mode=quantile`
+- Shared rollout filter setup:
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_value=0.9`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=linear`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_type=largest`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_include_zero=False`
+- GPU behavior:
+  - if `--gpus` is omitted, the scripts try to auto-detect GPUs with `nvidia-smi`
+  - if auto-detection fails, they fall back to `0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7`
+- Directory relationship:
+  - the training helper writes checkpoints under `model_saving/gradient_analysis/...`
+  - the probe helper reads from that layout by default and writes its own outputs under `model_saving/gradient_analysis_probe/...`
+- If you need the meaning of bucket metrics, prefilter logging, or the plotting commands after the run finishes, use [guide_gradient_analysis.md](guide_gradient_analysis.md).

+# WebShop Release Runs
+
+This doc covers the current WebShop release runner.
+
+## Overview
+
+Use [`scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh`](../scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh) for the main WebShop release experiments.
+
+Fixed setup:
+- **Task**: WebShop
+- **Config**: `_6_webshop`
+- **Model**: `Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct`
+- **Algorithm**: `GRPO`
+- **Train batch**: `16` env groups x `8` samples
+- **Validation batch**: `256` env groups x `1` sample
+- **W&B project**: `main_webshop`
+
+The runner compares four filter modes while keeping the rest of the setup fixed:
+
+| Filter | Strategy | Value | Prob Mode | Description |
+|--------|----------|-------|-----------|-------------|
+| `topk25` | `top_k` | `0.25` | `linear` | Keep top 25% of groups by reward variance |
+| `topp09` | `top_p` | `0.9` | `linear` | Keep groups covering 90% cumulative reward variance |
+| `topp095` | `top_p` | `0.95` | `linear` | Keep groups covering 95% cumulative reward variance |
+| `nofilter` | `top_p` | `1.0` | `linear` | Keep all groups |
+
+All four modes use:
+- `rollout_filter_type=largest`
+- `rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+- `rollout_filter_include_zero=True`
+
+## Setup
+
+For WebShop, use the original base setup path:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/setup_ragen_old.sh
+bash scripts/setup_webshop.sh
+```
+
+Do not use `setup_ragen.sh` as the primary WebShop setup path.
+
+Notes:
+- `setup_webshop.sh` now treats the Google Drive full-data download as best-effort. A failure there does not mean the Python environment setup failed.
+- The runner already pins `micro_batch_size_per_gpu=1` and `log_prob_micro_batch_size_per_gpu=1` to reduce WebShop rollout/log-prob memory pressure.
+
+## Main Commands
+
+### 4 GPUs
+
+Run one experiment on 4 GPUs:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh \
+  --steps 400 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3 \
+  --gpus-per-exp 4 \
+  --filters nofilter
+```
+
+Other filter modes:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh \
+  --steps 400 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3 \
+  --gpus-per-exp 4 \
+  --filters topk25
+```
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh \
+  --steps 400 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3 \
+  --gpus-per-exp 4 \
+  --filters topp09
+```
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh \
+  --steps 400 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3 \
+  --gpus-per-exp 4 \
+  --filters topp095
+```
+
+### 8 GPUs
+
+Run one experiment on 8 GPUs:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_webshop_release_combos.sh \
+  --steps 400 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 \
+  --gpus-per-exp 8 \
+  --filters nofilter
+```
+
+You can swap `nofilter` for `topk25`, `topp09`, or `topp095`.
+
+## Key Flags
+
+| Flag | Default | Description |
+|------|---------|-------------|
+| `--steps N` | `100` | Total training steps |
+| `--gpus LIST` | auto-detect | Comma-separated GPU IDs |

+# Filtering Strategies and Loss Scaling in RAGEN
+
+## Overview
+This document details the advanced filtering strategies and the loss scaling mechanism implemented to stabilize Reinforcement Learning (RL) training, particularly when using aggressive filtering techniques in the GRPO/PPO loop.
+
+Note: the short guide for the current `top_p`, `top_k`, and no-filter variants lives in [guide_rollout_filtering.md](./guide_rollout_filtering.md).
+
+## 1. Rolling Filter Strategies (`rollout_filter_strategy`)
+We have implemented three strategies to filter rollout groups based on their rewards/scores.
+
+### `top_p` (Nucleus Sampling)
+-   **Description**: Selects the smallest set of groups whose **cumulative probability** (derived from the softmax of scores) exceeds the threshold `value`.
+-   **Configuration**:
+    ```yaml
+    actor_rollout_ref:
+      rollout:
+        rollout_filter_strategy: top_p
+        rollout_filter_value: 0.5  # Keep top cumulative 50% probability mass
+    ```
+-   **Behavior**:
+    -   Scores are converted to logits (negated if `rollout_filter_type: smallest`).
+    -   Softmax is applied to get probabilities.
+    -   Groups are sorted by probability.
+    -   Groups are selected until the cumulative sum $\ge$ `value`.
+    -   **Constraint**: Always keeps at least one group.
+
+### `top_k`
+-   **Description**: Selects the top fraction `value` (e.g., 0.5 for 50%) of groups.
+-   **Configuration**:
+    ```yaml
+    actor_rollout_ref:
+      rollout:
+        rollout_filter_strategy: top_k
+        rollout_filter_value: 0.5  # Keep top 50% groups
+    ```
+
+### `top_k_abs`
+-   **Description**: Selects specifically the top `k` groups with the highest (or lowest) scores.
+-   **Configuration**:
+    ```yaml
+    actor_rollout_ref:
+      rollout:
+        rollout_filter_strategy: top_k_abs
+        rollout_filter_value: 4  # Keep top 4 groups
+    ```
+-   **Behavior**: A simple sorting and slicing operation. Useful for guaranteeing a fixed batch size of "good" examples.
+
+
+### `min_p`
+-   **Description**: Selects groups whose score is at least a fraction `value` of the maximum score in the batch.
+-   **Behavior**:
+    -   **`largest`**: Keeps groups where $\text{score} \ge \text{max\_score} \cdot \text{value}$.
+    -   **`smallest`**: Keeps groups where $\text{score} \le \text{min\_score} / \text{value}$.
+-   **Configuration**:
+    ```yaml
+    actor_rollout_ref:
+      rollout:
+        rollout_filter_strategy: min_p
+        rollout_filter_value: 0.8  # Keep groups with score >= 0.8 * max_score
+    ```
+
+### Other Parameters
+-   **`rollout_filter_metric`**: `reward_variance` (default), `reward`, `reward_sum`, `entropy`, `entropy_variance`, or `length`.
+-   **`rollout_filter_type`**: `largest` (default) or `smallest`. Determines if we want high or low scores.
+-   **`rollout_filter_include_zero`**: If `True`, groups with zero score are candidates for filtering. If `False`, they are excluded or handled differently depending on the specific logic (often used to ensure we don't train on complete failures).
+
+---
+
+## 2. Filter Loss Scaling (`filter_loss_scaling`)
+Aggressive filtering (e.g., `top_p=0.2`) can result in keeping only a small fraction of the generated prompts. This can lead to high variance in gradients. To mitigate this, we implemented loss scaling.
+
+### Concept
+We scale the PPO policy loss (and potentially KL/entropy components depending on the implementation) by a factor derived from the **kept ratio**:
+$$ \text{ratio} = \frac{N_{\text{kept}}}{N_{\text{total}}} $$
+
+### Configuration
+Controlled via `actor_rollout_ref.actor.filter_loss_scaling`:
+
+1.  **`none`** (Default): No scaling.
+    $$ \mathcal{L}_{\text{final}} = \mathcal{L}_{\text{ppo}} $$
+
+2.  **`linear`**: Scales linearly with the kept ratio.
+    $$ \mathcal{L}_{\text{final}} = \mathcal{L}_{\text{ppo}} \times \text{ratio} $$
+    -   *Intuition*: If we only keep 10% of the data, we scale the update down by 10% to prevent over-fitting to this small subset.
+
+3.  **`sqrt`**: Scales by the square root of the kept ratio.
+    $$ \mathcal{L}_{\text{final}} = \mathcal{L}_{\text{ppo}} \times \sqrt{\text{ratio}} $$
+    -   *Intuition*: A milder dampening than linear.
+
+### Implementation Details
+-   **Trainer**: The kept ratio is calculated in `ragen/trainer/agent_trainer.py`.
+-   **Loss Scaling**: The scaling is applied directly to the **advantages** in `ragen/trainer/agent_trainer.py` (after `compute_advantage`).
+    ```python
+    if filter_loss_scaling == "linear":
+        batch.batch["advantages"] *= filter_kept_ratio
+    ```
+    This effectively scales the policy gradient updates.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Reward Variance Early Stopping
+To prevent training on collapsed or uninformative rollout groups, we implemented an early stopping mechanism based on reward variance.
+
+### Concept
+The trainer monitors the reward standard deviation (`rollout/in_group_reward_std`) at the successful training-step level.
+
+1.  **Baseline Generation**: During the first 10 successful training steps, the trainer calculates the average reward variance ($V_{base}$).
+2.  **Monitoring**: A sliding window of the last 10 successful training steps is maintained (starts after baseline is ready).
+3.  **Stopping Condition**: If all 10 consecutive step variances are less than 10% of $V_{base}$, training is stopped.
+    $$ \forall i \in \{1 \dots 10\}: V_i < 0.1 \times V_{base} \implies \text{Stop Training} $$
+
+### Implementation
+-   **Baseline**: Average of `rollout/in_group_reward_std` for `global_steps` 1-10.
+-   **Sliding Window**: Uses a `collections.deque(maxlen=10)` to track the most recent successful training steps.
+-   **Metric**: Logs `early_stopped/reward_variance_collapse: 1.0` when triggered.
+
+### 2. Success-Based Early Stopping
+To prevent wasting compute on environments where the model is failing to learn, we implemented an early stopping mechanism based on validation success rates.
+
+- **Condition**: If the success rate for a specific environment (e.g., `val-env/CoordSokoban/success`) remains below **1% (0.01)** for **5 consecutive** validation steps, the training is stopped.
+- **Metric**: Logs `early_stopped/low_validation_success: 1.0` when triggered.
+
+---
+
+A unified script `scripts/runs/run_filtering_final.sh` is provided to run the validated set of filtering experiments.
+
+### Usage
+```bash
+# Run experiments across available GPUs (e.g., 2 GPUs per experiment)
+bash scripts/runs/run_filtering_final.sh 2
+```
+
+### Features
+-   **PPO Focused**: All experiments in this suite use the PPO algorithm.
+-   **400 Steps**: Standardized training length.
+-   **Auto-Scheduling**: Automatically detects available GPUs and distributes experiments.
+-   **Metric Coverage**: Covers `reward_variance`, `entropy`, `entropy_variance`, and `length`.
+-   **Automatic Skip**: Tracks progress in `filter_final_donelist.txt` to avoid redundant runs.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Code References
+-   **Filtering Logic**: `ragen/trainer/rollout_filter.py`
+-   **Trainer Integration**: `ragen/trainer/agent_trainer.py`
+-   **Early Stopping Logic**: `RayAgentTrainer` in `ragen/trainer/agent_trainer.py`
+-   **Loss Scaling Implementation**: `verl/verl/workers/actor/dp_actor.py` (specifically `DataParallelPPOActor.update_policy`)
+-   **Configuration**: `config/base.yaml` and `verl/verl/workers/config/actor.py`
+
+---
+
+## 6. Troubleshooting
+
+### `AssertionError: old_log_probs` Collision
+If you use `rollout_filter_metric=entropy`, you might encounter an `AssertionError` during the `batch.union` operation in `agent_trainer.py`.
+
+-   **Cause**: The `EntropyRolloutFilter` recomputes log probabilities to calculate entropy and returns them in the `DataProto`. The trainer also recomputes log probabilities for the PPO update. `DataProto.union` rejects keys that already exist if they are not the exact same tensor instance.
+-   **Resolution**: The filter has been updated to only include the `entropys` key and prune the redundant `old_log_probs` before unioning with the main batch.

+# Gradient Analysis Walkthrough
+
+This document explains how gradient analysis works in the current RAGEN codebase, which arguments control it, which W&B metrics it writes, how to run it from scratch or from a checkpoint, and how to turn a finished W&B run into local plots.
+
+Normal training now enables gradient analysis by default:
+- `trainer.gradient_analysis_mode=True`
+- `trainer.gradient_analysis_every=50`
+- by default it reuses the training batch unless separate analysis batch overrides are set
+
+## Quickstart
+
+### Run a periodic analysis job from scratch
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+That helper script:
+- trains for `101` steps
+- runs validation before training and then every `10` steps
+- runs gradient analysis on steps `1`, `51`, and `101`
+- uses the main-table training batch (`8x16`) but a separate analysis batch (`128x16`)
+
+### Run one analysis-only job
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh \
+  --steps 1 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Then set:
+- `trainer.gradient_analysis_every=1`
+- `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`
+
+### Plot the finished run
+
+```bash
+python gradient_analysis/plot_gradient_analysis.py \
+  --wandb-path deimos-xing/ragen_gradient_analysis/<run_id> \
+  --step 1
+```
+
+Default output directory:
+
+```text
+gradient_analysis_outputs/<run_name>_<run_id>/
+```
+
+## What It Does
+
+Gradient analysis is a reporting path that probes the actor on reward-variance buckets without taking an optimizer step.
+
+The current execution order inside [agent_trainer.py](../ragen/trainer/agent_trainer.py) is:
+
+1. generate rollouts
+2. apply rollout filtering
+3. compute rewards and advantages
+4. update critic if enabled
+5. if the current step matches the gradient-analysis cadence:
+   - split the batch into reward-variance buckets
+   - run actor backward passes for task / entropy / KL on each bucket
+   - log gradient-analysis metrics
+6. if `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`, exit here
+7. otherwise continue to the normal actor update
+
+So the important boundary is:
+- gradient analysis runs after rollout, filtering, reward computation, and critic update
+- it runs before the normal actor update
+- with `exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`, the run exits before actor update, checkpoint save, and post-step validation
+
+When `trainer.gradient_analysis_env_groups` or `trainer.gradient_analysis_group_size` is set:
+- training still uses the normal training batch
+- the analysis step generates a second, separate rollout batch just for gradient analysis
+- that separate batch is filtered, scored, bucketed, and probed without affecting the training update batch
+
+## How Bucketing Works
+
+Bucketing is implemented in [rollout_filter.py](../ragen/trainer/rollout_filter.py).
+
+### Source Signal
+
+- The rollout filter computes in-group reward standard deviation
+- It broadcasts that value to each sample as `batch.batch["reward_std"]`
+- Gradient analysis then splits the filtered batch using this `reward_std`
+
+This means the buckets are built from the same reward-variance signal used by rollout filtering, not from a separate offline computation.
+
+### Bucket Modes
+
+Two bucket modes are supported:
+
+1. `quantile` (default)
+- Controlled by `gradient_analysis_num_buckets`
+- Groups are sorted by group-level `reward_std`
+- They are split into equal-percentage buckets
+- If the filtered batch contains fewer groups than the requested bucket count, the effective bucket count is reduced so each bucket still contains at least one group
+- Bucket names are `bucket_1` to `bucket_N`
+- `bucket_1` is lowest reward variance, `bucket_N` is highest reward variance
+
+2. `fixed_rv`
+- Uses fixed reward-variance intervals:
+  - `bucket_1`: `[0, 1)`
+  - `bucket_2`: `[1, 2)`
+  - `bucket_3`: `[2, 3)`
+  - `bucket_4`: `[3, 4)`
+  - `bucket_5`: `[4, 5)`
+  - `bucket_6`: `[5, +inf)`
+
+### Special `all` Bucket
+
+Gradient analysis always includes an `all` bucket in addition to the real variance buckets.
+
+`all` means:
+- the whole filtered batch
+- no bucket subsetting
+
+This is the bridge between the bucketed metrics and the top-level actor metrics.
+
+### DP Safety
+
+If a bucket size is not divisible by `trainer.n_gpus_per_node`, the reporter drops the remainder before calling actor update. If a bucket would become empty after that adjustment, it is skipped.
+
+## How The Analysis Is Computed
+
+The reporting loop is in [gradient_reporter.py](../ragen/trainer/gradient_reporter.py).
+
+For each bucket:
+
+1. create a sub-batch
+2. set two meta flags:
+   - `skip_optimizer_step=True`
+   - `grad_component_analysis=True`
+3. call `trainer.actor_rollout_wg.update_actor(sub_batch)`
+4. inside the actor, run three backward passes:
+   - task policy loss
+   - entropy term
+   - KL term
+5. record gradient norms and losses
+6. zero gradients and move to the next bucket
+
+The component-wise backward path is implemented in [dp_actor.py](../ragen/workers/actor/dp_actor.py).
+
+Important detail:
+- this path does not call `optimizer.step()`
+- it is analysis-only probing of the current actor state
+
+## Arguments
+
+### New Hydra Args
+
+These are the gradient-analysis-specific trainer overrides:
+
+1. `trainer.gradient_analysis_mode=True`
+- enables the feature
+- default behavior in `config/base.yaml`: enabled
+- set `trainer.gradient_analysis_mode=False` to disable it
+
+2. `trainer.gradient_analysis_every=<N>`
+- run analysis every `N` training steps
+- trigger condition is:
+  - `(global_steps - 1) % gradient_analysis_every == 0`
+- default behavior in `config/base.yaml`: `50`
+- so `gradient_analysis_every=1` means every step
+- `gradient_analysis_every=50` means steps `1, 51, 101, ...`
+
+3. `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`
+- analysis-only mode
+- after the selected analysis step finishes, log metrics and exit immediately
+- exit happens before:
+  - actor update
+  - checkpoint save
+  - post-step validation
+- default behavior in `config/base.yaml`: `False`
+- it does not suppress `val_before_train`
+
+4. `trainer.gradient_analysis_env_groups=<N>`
+- optional
+- if set, gradient analysis uses a separate rollout batch with this many groups
+- training keeps using `es_manager.train.env_groups`
+- default behavior in `config/base.yaml`: `null` (reuse training batch)
+
+5. `trainer.gradient_analysis_group_size=<N>`
+- optional
+- if set, gradient analysis uses a separate rollout batch with this group size
+- training keeps using `es_manager.train.group_size`
+- default behavior in `config/base.yaml`: `null` (reuse training batch)
+
+6. `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_num_buckets=<N>`
+- number of quantile buckets
+- default is `6`
+
+7. `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_bucket_mode=quantile|fixed_rv`
+- chooses the bucketing rule
+- default is `quantile`
+
+### Existing Training Args That Matter
+
+These are not new, but they materially affect the analysis:
+
+- `es_manager.train.env_groups`
+  - number of prompt groups
+  - more groups gives a finer reward-variance ranking
+
+- `es_manager.train.group_size`
+  - number of rollouts per group
+  - affects how stable each group reward-variance estimate is
+
+- `trainer.n_gpus_per_node`
+  - affects DP-safe bucket trimming
+
+- rollout filter args such as:
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_value`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_strategy`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_metric`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode`
+  - `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_include_zero`
+
+The current Sokoban PPO helper runner uses:
+- training batch: `env_groups=8`, `group_size=16`
+- analysis batch: `gradient_analysis_env_groups=128`, `gradient_analysis_group_size=16`
+- `rollout_filter_strategy=top_p`
+- `rollout_filter_value=0.9`
+- `rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance`
+- `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`
+
+## W&B Metrics
+
+There are two layers of metrics:
+
+1. bucket-prefixed analysis metrics
+2. top-level actor metrics copied from the `all` bucket
+
+### Bucket-Prefixed Metrics
+
+These are written under:
+- `grad_norm/all/...`
+- `grad_norm/bucket_1/...`
+- `grad_norm/bucket_2/...`
+- ...
+
+#### Bucket Size / Coverage
+
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/sample_count`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/sample_pct`
+
+#### Reward-Variance Stats
+
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/reward_std_mean`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/reward_std_min`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/reward_std_max`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/group_rv_count`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/group_rv_table`
+
+`group_rv_table` is a `wandb.Table` with columns:
+- `bucket`
+- `group_id`
+- `reward_std`
+
+#### Gradient Norms
+
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/task`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/entropy`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/kl`
+
+#### Normalized Gradient Norms
+
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_sample/task`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_sample/entropy`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_sample/kl`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_token/task`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_token/entropy`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/per_token/kl`
+
+#### Losses
+
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/loss/policy`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/loss/entropy`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/loss/kl`
+- `grad_norm/<bucket>/loss/total`
+
+### Top-Level Metrics Copied From `all`
+
+When the bucket name is `all`, the reporter also writes the actor metrics back to top level:
+
+- `actor/loss/policy`
+- `actor/loss/entropy`
+- `actor/loss/kl`
+- `actor/loss/total`
+- `actor/grad_norm/task`
+- `actor/grad_norm/entropy`
+- `actor/grad_norm/kl`
+
+If `exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`, the trainer also logs:
+
+- `trainer/exited_after_gradient_analysis = 1.0`
+
+## Commands
+
+### 1. From Scratch With The Helper Script
+
+The helper runner is:
+- [run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh](../scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh)
+
+It is fixed to:
+- task: `sokoban`
+- algo: `PPO`
+- filter: `top_p=0.9`
+- model: `Qwen2.5-3B`
+- env_groups: `32`
+- group_size: `16`
+- gradient analysis: once on step 1
+- `exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`
+- one initial validation before training
+- no periodic validation afterwards
+
+Example on 8 GPUs:
+
+```bash
+bash scripts/runs/run_sokoban_ppo_filter_grad_analysis.sh \
+  --steps 1 \
+  --gpus 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7
+```
+
+Key defaults inside that script:
+- `trainer.project_name=ragen_gradient_analysis`
+- `env_groups=32`
+- `group_size=16`
+- `trainer.gradient_analysis_every=1`
+- `trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True`
+- `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_num_buckets=6`
+- `actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_bucket_mode=quantile`
+
+### 2. Direct `train.py` Usage
+
+Minimal pattern when you want to override the global defaults:
+
+```bash
+python train.py ... \
+  trainer.gradient_analysis_mode=True \
+  trainer.gradient_analysis_every=1 \
+  trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_num_buckets=6 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_bucket_mode=quantile
+```
+
+### 3. Resume From A Checkpoint And Probe It Once
+
+Checkpoint resume should point to the `global_step_<N>` directory, not the nested `actor/` directory.
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 python train.py --config-name _2_sokoban \
+  model_path=Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B \
+  trainer.project_name=ragen_gradient_analysis \
+  trainer.experiment_name=sokoban-PPO-filter-topp09-grad-from-ckpt100 \
+  trainer.default_local_dir=model_saving/gradient_analysis/sokoban/PPO/filter/sokoban-PPO-filter-topp09-grad-from-ckpt100 \
+  trainer.resume_mode=resume_path \
+  trainer.resume_from_path=/ABS/PATH/TO/your_run/global_step_100 \
+  trainer.total_training_steps=101 \
+  trainer.save_freq=-1 \
+  trainer.val_before_train=False \
+  trainer.test_freq=-1 \
+  trainer.n_gpus_per_node=8 \
+  ray_kwargs.ray_init.num_cpus=16 \
+  system.CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES="'0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7'" \
+  es_manager.train.env_groups=32 \
+  es_manager.train.group_size=16 \
+  es_manager.train.env_configs.n_groups="[32]" \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.use_kl_loss=False \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.kl_loss_type=low-var-kl \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.kl_loss_coef=0.001 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.entropy_coeff=0.001 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.entropy_from_logits_with_chunking=True \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.filter_loss_scaling=none \
+  actor_rollout_ref.actor.loss_agg_mode=token-mean \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gpu_memory_utilization=0.3 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_value=0.9 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_strategy=top_p \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_type=largest \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_metric=reward_variance \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.rollout_filter_include_zero=True \
+  algorithm.adv_estimator=gae \
+  trainer.gradient_analysis_mode=True \
+  trainer.gradient_analysis_every=1 \
+  trainer.exit_after_gradient_analysis=True \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_num_buckets=6 \
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.gradient_analysis_bucket_mode=quantile
+```
+
+Why `total_training_steps=101` for a `global_step_100` checkpoint:
+- the trainer resumes at step 100
+- one more training iteration is enough to trigger one analysis pass
+- `exit_after_gradient_analysis=True` then exits before actor update
+
+## Practical Notes
+
+- `exit_after_gradient_analysis=True` is not a full “no training code at all” mode.
+  - rollout generation, filtering, reward computation, and critic update still happen before the analysis point
+  - what it prevents is the normal actor update and everything after it
+
+- If you want the cleanest checkpoint inspection, keep the resumed run aligned with the original training geometry:
+  - same `env_groups`
+  - same `group_size`
+  - same rollout filter settings
+
+- The analysis buckets are built on the filtered batch, not on the raw unfiltered rollout batch.

+
+### List Available Analysis Steps
+
+Before plotting, you can ask the script which steps in the run actually contain bucket metrics:
+
+```bash
+python gradient_analysis/plot_gradient_analysis.py \
+  --wandb-path deimos-xing/ragen_gradient_analysis/<run_id> \
+  --list-steps
+```

+```
+
+### Plot A Specific Step
+
+```bash
+python gradient_analysis/plot_gradient_analysis.py \
+  --wandb-path deimos-xing/ragen_gradient_analysis/<run_id> \
+  --step 1
+```
+
+You can also request multiple steps:
+
+```bash
+python gradient_analysis/plot_gradient_analysis.py \
+  --wandb-path deimos-xing/ragen_gradient_analysis/<run_id> \
+  --step 1 11 21
+```
+
+### Choose An Output Directory
+
+```bash
+python gradient_analysis/plot_gradient_analysis.py \

+# Rollout Filtering Guide
+
+## What is Rollout Filtering?
+
+In RAGEN, each training step generates multiple rollouts per prompt (a **group**). The within-group **reward variance (RV)** measures how much the model's responses differ in quality for that prompt:
+
+- **High RV** — the model sometimes succeeds and sometimes fails → strong learning signal
+- **Low RV** — all responses receive similar rewards → noisy gradient (low SNR)
+
+**SNR-Adaptive Filtering** discards low-variance groups before the policy gradient update, keeping only prompts that provide meaningful signal. This reduces gradient noise and mitigates reasoning collapse during training.
+
+<p align="center"><img src="../public/top_p.png" width="800px" alt="SNR-Adaptive Filtering (Top-p) pipeline" /></p>
+<p align="center"><em>Top-p filtering pipeline: (1) sample rollouts and compute rewards, (2) compute within-prompt reward variance, (3) rank by RV and apply Top-p threshold — low-variance prompts are discarded.</em></p>
+
+All config keys live under `actor_rollout_ref.rollout` in [config/base.yaml](../config/base.yaml).
+
+## Quick Recommendation
+
+| Goal | Config |
+|---|---|
+| No filtering (default) | `rollout_filter_value=1.0`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` |
+| **Top-p Linear (recommended)** | `rollout_filter_value=0.9`, `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=linear`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=False`, `rollout_filter_selection_eps=0.01` |
+| Top-p Softmax | `rollout_filter_value=0.9`, `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode=softmax`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=False` |
+| Top-k Fractional | `rollout_filter_strategy=top_k`, `rollout_filter_value=0.25`, `rollout_filter_type=largest`, `rollout_filter_include_zero=True` |
+
+## Config Parameters
+
+| Parameter | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `rollout_filter_strategy` | Selection strategy: `top_p`, `top_k`, `top_k_abs`, `min_p` |
+| `rollout_filter_value` | Threshold value — meaning depends on strategy (see below) |
+| `rollout_filter_type` | `largest` (keep high-RV groups) or `smallest` (keep low-RV groups) |
+| `rollout_filter_include_zero` | Whether to keep groups with zero reward variance |
+| `rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode` | Top-p score aggregation: `linear` (score-sum rule) or `softmax` (probability mass) |
+| `rollout_filter_selection_eps` | Epsilon for the linear top-p threshold (default `0.01`) |
+| `rollout_filter_metric` | What to compute per group: `reward_variance` (default), `reward`, `reward_sum`, `entropy`, `entropy_variance`, `length` |
+| `rollout_filter_empty_stop_steps` | Early-stop after this many consecutive steps with 0 kept samples (default `5`) |
+
+## Filtering Strategies
+
+### 1. No Filter
+
+Keep all groups. Use this as a baseline.
+
+```yaml
+actor_rollout_ref:
+  rollout:
+    rollout_filter_strategy: top_p
+    rollout_filter_value: 1.0
+    rollout_filter_include_zero: True
+```
+
+With `value=1.0` and `include_zero=True`, the filter is effectively disabled — all groups pass through.
+
+### 2. Top-p Linear (Recommended)
+
+Keep the highest-RV groups whose cumulative score reaches a fraction of the total score.
+
+```yaml
+actor_rollout_ref:
+  rollout:
+    rollout_filter_strategy: top_p
+    rollout_filter_value: 0.9
+    rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode: linear
+    rollout_filter_include_zero: False
+    rollout_filter_selection_eps: 0.01
+```
+
+How it works:
+1. Remove zero-RV groups (`include_zero=False`)
+2. Sort remaining groups by score (descending)
+3. Compute threshold: `top_p * sum(scores) - eps`
+4. Accumulate scores from the top until the threshold is reached
+5. If the threshold cannot be reached, the step is skipped (`empty_after_filter`)
+
+Tuning:
+- `value=0.9`: recommended default
+- Lower `value` → more aggressive filtering (fewer groups kept)
+- `eps=0.01`: recommended default; larger eps rejects near-zero-RV batches more easily
+
+### 3. Top-p Softmax
+
+Nucleus-style selection based on softmax probability mass over group scores.
+
+```yaml
+actor_rollout_ref:
+  rollout:
+    rollout_filter_strategy: top_p
+    rollout_filter_value: 0.9
+    rollout_filter_top_p_prob_mode: softmax
+    rollout_filter_include_zero: False
+```
+
+How it works:
+1. Remove zero-RV groups (`include_zero=False`)
+2. Convert scores to probabilities: `probs = softmax(scores)`
+3. Sort by probability (descending) and accumulate until cumulative mass reaches `top_p`
+
+Tuning:
+- `value=0.9`: recommended default
+- `0.95–0.98`: mild filtering
+- `0.6–0.8`: aggressive filtering
+
+### 4. Top-k Fractional
+
+Keep a fixed fraction of groups ranked by score.
+
+```yaml
+actor_rollout_ref:
+  rollout:
+    rollout_filter_strategy: top_k
+    rollout_filter_value: 0.25
+    rollout_filter_type: largest
+    rollout_filter_include_zero: True
+```
+
+How it works:
+1. Compute `k = int(value * num_groups)` (at least 1)
+2. Keep the top-k groups by score
+3. With `include_zero=True`, zero-RV groups remain as candidates
+
+`value=0.25` means "keep about 25% of groups". Example: with 8 groups, keeps `int(0.25 * 8) = 2` groups.
+
+For a fixed absolute count instead of a fraction, use `strategy=top_k_abs`.

+
+**2025.5.8 Update:**
+We now release the official [Documentation](https://ragen-doc.readthedocs.io/) for RAGEN. The documentation will be continuously updated and improved to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date guidance.
+
+**2025.5.2 Update:**
+We now release a [tracking document](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bg7obeiKTExuHHBl5uOiSpec5uLDZ2Tgvxy6li5pHX4/edit?usp=sharing) to log minor updates in the RAGEN codebase. 
+
+
+**2025.4.20 Update:**
+
+Our RAGEN [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.20073) is out!
+
+We've further streamlined the RAGEN codebase (v0423) to improve development.
+1. Architecture: Restructured veRL as a submodule for better co-development
+2. Modularity: Divided RAGEN into three components—Environment Manager, Context Manager, and Agent Proxy, making it significantly simpler to add new environments (details below), track environmental dynamics, and run multiple experiments
+
+
+**2025.4.16 Update:**
+
+We recently noticed that a [third-party website](https://ragen-ai.com) has been created using our project's name and content. While we appreciate the interest in the project, we'd like to clarify that this GitHub repository is the official and primary source for all code, updates, and documentation.
+If we launch an official website in the future, it will be explicitly linked here.
+
+Thank you for your support and understanding!
+
+
+**2025.3.13 Update:**
+
+
+We are recently refactoring RAGEN code to help you better develop your own idea on the codebase. Please checkout our [developing branch](https://github.com/ZihanWang314/RAGEN/tree/main-new). The first version decomposes RAGEN and veRL for better co-development, taking the latter as a submodule rather than a static directory.
+
+**2025.3.8 Update:**
+
+1. In previous veRL implementation, there is a [KL term issue](https://github.com/volcengine/verl/pull/179/files), which has been fixed in recent versions.
+2. We find evidence from multiple sources that PPO could be more stable than GRPO training in [Open-Reasoner-Zero](https://x.com/rosstaylor90/status/1892664646890312125), [TinyZero](https://github.com/Jiayi-Pan/TinyZero), and [Zhihu](https://www.zhihu.com/search?type=content&q=%E6%97%A0%E5%81%8FGRPO). We have changed the default advantage estimator to GAE (using PPO) and aim to find more stable while efficient RL optimization methods in later versions.
+
+**2025.1.27:**
+
+We are thrilled to release RAGEN! Check out our post [here](https://x.com/wzihanw/status/1884092805598826609).
+
+
+## Overview
+
+<!--
+Reinforcement Learning (RL) with rule-based rewards has shown promise in enhancing reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). However, existing approaches have primarily focused on static, single-turn tasks like math reasoning and coding. Extending these methods to agent scenarios introduces two fundamental challenges:
+
+1. **Multi-turn Interactions**: Agents must perform sequential decision-making and react to environment feedback
+2. **Stochastic Environments**: Uncertainty where identical actions can lead to different outcomes
+
+RAGEN addresses these challenges through:
+- A Markov Decision Process (MDP) formulation for agent tasks
+- State-Thinking-Actions-Reward Policy Optimization (StarPO) algorithm that optimizes entire trajectory distributions
+- Progressive reward normalization strategies to handle diverse, complex environments

+
+Reinforcement Learning (RL) with rule-based rewards has shown promise in enhancing reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). However, existing approaches have primarily focused on static, single-turn tasks like math reasoning and coding. Extending these methods to agent scenarios introduces two fundamental challenges:
+
+1. **Multi-turn Interactions**: Agents must perform sequential decision-making and react to environment feedback
+2. **Stochastic Environments**: Uncertainty where identical actions can lead to different outcomes
+
+To address these challenges, we propose a general RL framework: **StarPO** (**S**tate-**T**hinking-**A**ctions-**R**eward **P**olicy **O**ptimization), a comprehensive RL framework that provides a unified approach for training multi-turn, trajectory-level agents with flexible control over reasoning processes, reward assignment mechanisms, and prompt-rollout structures. 
+Building upon StarPO, we introduce **RAGEN**, a modular agent training and evaluation system that implements the complete training loop, including rollout generation, reward calculation, and trajectory optimization. RAGEN serves as a robust research infrastructure for systematically analyzing LLM agent training dynamics in multi-turn and stochastic environments.
+
+## Algorithm
+
+RAGEN introduces a reinforcement learning framework to train reasoning-capable LLM agents that can operate in interactive, stochastic environments. 
+
+<p align="center"><img src="public/starpo_logo.png" width="800px" alt="StarPO Framework" /></p>
+<p align="center" style="font-size: 16px; max-width: 800px; margin: 0 auto;">
+The StarPO (State-Thinking-Action-Reward Policy Optimization) framework with two interleaved stages: <b>rollout stage</b> and <b>update stage</b>. LLM iteratively generates reasoning-guided actions to interact with the environment to obtain trajectory-level rewards for LLM update to jointly   optimize reasoning and action strategies.
+</p>
+
+The framework consists of two key components:
+
+### > MDP Formulation 
+We formulate agent-environment interactions as Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) where states and actions are token sequences, allowing LLMs to reason over environment dynamics. At time t, state $s_t$ transitions to the next state through action $a_t$ following a transition function. The policy generates actions given the trajectory history. The objective is to maximize expected cumulative rewards across multiple interaction turns.
+
+### > StarPO: Reinforcing Reasoning via Trajectory-Level Optimization
+StarPO is a general RL framework for optimizing entire multi-turn interaction trajectories for LLM agents.
+The algorithm alternates between two phases:
+
+#### Rollout Stage: Reasoning-Interaction Trajectories
+Given an initial state, the LLM generates multiple trajectories. At each step, the model receives the trajectory history and generates a reasoning-guided action: `<think>...</think><ans> action </ans>`. The environment receives the action and returns feedback (reward and next state).
+
+#### Update Stage: Multi-turn Trajectory Optimization 
+After generating trajectories, we train LLMs to optimize expected rewards. Instead of step-by-step optimization, StarPO optimizes entire trajectories using importance sampling. This approach enables long-horizon reasoning while maintaining computational efficiency. 
+StarPO supports multiple optimization strategies: 
+- PPO: We estimate token-level advantages using a value function over trajectories
+- GRPO: We assign normalized reward to the full trajectory
+
+Rollout and update stages interleave in StarPO, enabling both online and offline learning.
+
+<!--
+### > Reward Normalization Strategies 
+We implement three progressive normalization strategies to stabilize training: 
+1. **ARPO**: Preserves raw rewards directly 
+2. **BRPO**: Normalizes rewards across each training batch using batch statistics
+3. **GRPO**: Normalizes within prompt groups to balance learning across varying task difficulties
+-->
+
+## Environment Setup
+For detailed setup instructions, please check our [documentation](https://ragen-doc.readthedocs.io/). Here's a quick start guide:
+
+```bash
+# Setup environment for RAGEN
+bash scripts/setup_ragen.sh
+```
+
+If this fails, you can follow the manual setup instructions in `scripts/setup_ragen.md`.
+
+### Optional Dependencies
+
+RAGEN supports optional environment-specific dependencies. You can install only the components you need:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e . # Base installation (core functionality only)
+pip install -e ".[webshop]" # Include WebShop environment dependencies
+pip install -e ".[lean]" # Include Lean environment dependencies
+pip install -e ".[all]" # Install all optional dependencies
+pip install -e ".[webshop,lean]" # Or combine multiple extras
+```
+
+## Training Models
+Here's how to train models with RAGEN:
+
+### Export variables and train
+We provide default configuration in `config/base.yaml`. This file includes symbolic links to:
+- `config/ppo_trainer.yaml` 
+- `config/envs.yaml`
+
+The base configuration automatically inherits all contents from these two config files, creating a unified configuration system.
+
+To train:
+
+```bash
+python train.py --config-name base
+```
+
+
+### Parameter efficient training with LoRA
+
+### Saving compute
+By default our code is runnable on A100 80GB machines. If you are using machine with lower memory (e.g. RTX 4090), please consider adapting below parameters, like follows (performance might change due to smaller batch size and shorter context length):
+```bash
+python train.py \
+  micro_batch_size_per_gpu=1 \ 
+  ppo_mini_batch_size=8 \ 
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.max_model_len=2048 \ 
+  actor_rollout_ref.rollout.response_length=128 
+```
+
+#### Parameter efficient training with LoRA
+We provide a default configuration with LoRA enabled in `config/base-lora.yaml`. To customize the LoRA settings, see the the `lora` section at the top of the configuration file. The current settings are:
+
+```yaml
+lora rank: 64
+lora alpha: 64
+actor learning rate: 1e-5
+critic learning rate: 1e-4
+```
+
+<!--
+## Supervised Finetuning (Optional)
+For supervised finetuning with LoRA:
+
+1. Create supervised finetuning data:
+```bash
+bash sft/generate_data.sh <env_type>
+```
+
+2. Finetune the model:
+```bash
+bash sft/finetune_lora.sh <env_type> <num_gpus> <save_path>
+```
+
+3. Merge LoRA weights with the base model:
+```bash
+python sft/utils/merge_lora.py \
+    --base_model_name <base_model_name> \
+    --lora_model_path <lora_model_path> \
+    --output_path <output_path>
+```
+-->
+
+## Visualization
+Please check the `val/generations` metric in your wandb dashboard to see the trajectories generated by the model throughout training. Check this [relevant issue](https://github.com/RAGEN-AI/RAGEN/issues/84) for more information. 
+
+
+## Performance
+
+We evaluate RAGEN across multiple environments. Below are results Qwen-2.5-0.5B-Instruct on Sokoban, Frozenlake, Bandit, and Spatial. 
+- No KL loss or KL penalty was applied during training
+- We selectively retained only the top 25% of trajectories that successfully completed their respective tasks
+
+<p align="center" style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; flex-direction: column; gap: 20px; max-width: 500px; margin: 0 auto;">
+    <img src="public/exp1.png" width="250px" alt="Bandit" />
+    <img src="public/exp2.png" width="250px"  alt="Simple Sokoban" />
+    <img src="public/exp3.png" width="250px"  alt="Frozen lake" />
+</p>
+
+We demonstrate RAGEN's robust generalization ability by training on simple Sokoban environments (6×6 with 1 box) and successfully evaluating performance on:
+- Larger Sokoban environments (8×8 with 2 boxes)
+- Simple Sokoban with alternative grid vocabulary representations
+- FrozenLake environments
+
+<p align="center" style="display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; flex-direction: column; gap: 20px; max-width: 500px; margin: 0 auto;">
+    <img src="public/exp4.png" width="250px" alt="Larger Sokoban" />
+    <img src="public/exp5.png" width="250px"  alt="Sokoban with Different Grid Vocabulary" />
+    <img src="public/exp6.png" width="250px"  alt="Frozen lake" />
+</p>
+
+Key observations:
+- By using no KL and filtering out failed trajectories, we can achieve better and stable performance
+- Generalization results highlight RAGEN's capacity to transfer learned policies across varying environment complexities, representations, and domains.
+
+## Evaluation
+RAGEN provides a easy way to evaluate a model:
+```bash
+python -m ragen.llm_agent.agent_proxy --config-name <eval_config>
+```
+The proxy now loads `config/eval.yaml` by default, which only keeps the rollout-specific knobs required for evaluation. You can still point to any other file via `--config-name`. Each evaluation config supports an `output` block so you can control where rollouts are stored and which fields are persisted:
+
+```yaml
+output:
+  dir: results/eval
+  filename: val_rollouts.pkl
+  append_timestamp: true   # include run timestamp in the file name
+  keep_batch_keys: ["rm_scores", "responses"]   # set to null to keep everything
+  keep_non_tensor_keys: null
+  keep_meta_info: true
+```
+
+With this configuration the proxy filters the `DataProto` before saving (handy if you want to drop large tensors such as log-probs) and places the artifact directly under `results/eval`.  
+You only need to set model and environment to evaluate in `config/<eval_config>.yaml`.  
+To limit how many previous turns the model sees during evaluation, you can set `agent_proxy.max_context_window` in your config file.
+
+
+<!--
+## Example Trajectories
+
+Visualization of agent reasoning on the Sokoban task:
+
+<p align="center" style="display: flex; justify-content: center; gap: 10px;">
+    <img src="./public/step_1.png" width="200px" alt="Step 1" />
+    <img src="./public/step_2.png" width="200px" alt="Step 2" />
+</p>
+
+The visualizations show how the agent reasons through sequential steps to solve the puzzle.
+
+## Case Studies
+We provide several case studies showing the model's behavior:
+- [Reward hacking](https://github.com/ZihanWang314/agent-r1/blob/main/cases/reward_hacking.txt)
+- [Challenging moments](https://github.com/ZihanWang314/agent-r1/blob/main/cases/suck_moment.txt)
+
+More case studies will be added to showcase both successful reasoning patterns and failure modes.
+-->
+
+## Modular System Design of RAGEN
+
+We implement RAGEN as a modular system: there are three main modules: **Environment State Manager** (`ragen/llm_agent/es_manager.py`), **Context Manager** (`ragen/llm_agent/ctx_manager.py`), and **Agent Proxy** (`ragen/llm_agent/agent_proxy.py`).
+
+- Environment State Manager (**es_manager**):
+  - Supports multiple environments (different environments, same environment different seeds, same environment same seed)
+  - Training seeds are controlled via `seed.train` in the config. The manager increments this seed each reset so runs are deterministic.
+  - Records states of each environment during rollout
+  - Processes actions from **ctx_manager**, executes step, and returns action results (observations) to **ctx_manager** in a batch-wise manner
+- Context Manager (**ctx_manager**):
+  - Parses raw agent tokens into structured actions for the **es_manager**
+  - Formats observation from **es_manager**, parses and formulates them for following rollout of agent.
+  - Supports a `max_context_window` hyperparameter, which limits how many previous turns of interaction history are retained in the model’s input. 
+  - Gathers final rollout trajectories and compiles them into tokens, attention masks, reward scores, and loss masks for llm updating.
+- Agent Proxy (**agent_proxy**): Serves as the interface for executing single or multi-round rollouts
+
+## Adding Custom Environments
+
+To add a new environment to our framework:
+
+1. Implement an OpenAI Gym-compatible environment in `ragen/env/new_env/env.py` with these required methods:
+   - `step(action)`: Process actions and return next state
+   - `reset(seed)`: Initialize environment with new seed
+   - `render()`: Return current state observation
+   - `close()`: Clean up resources
+
+2. Define environment configuration in `ragen/env/new_env/config.py`
+
+3. Register your environment in `config/envs.yaml`:
+   ```yaml
+   custom_envs:
+     - NewEnvironment # Tag
+       - env_type: new_env  # Must match environment class name
+       - max_actions_per_traj: 50  # Example value
+       - env_instruction: "Your environment instructions here"
+       - parallel_friendly: false # Set to true if your environment supports parallel execution.
+       - max_workers: 128 # If parallel_friendly=True, max_workers threads will be used.
+       - env_config: {}  # Configuration options from config.py
+   ```
+   (Hint: Due to the extra time cost associated with using a thread pool, there is a trade-off between the pool's overhead and the speed of the environment itself. It is recommended to enable the parallelism only for complex environments. Meanwhile, running the RNG-dependent environments inside shared thread pools means multiple workers touch Python’s global random state concurrently, so even with the same seed, interleaving differs per run when setting `parallel_friendly=True`.)
+
+4. Add the environment tag to the `es_manager` section in `config/base.yaml`
+
+## Using RAGEN with dstack
+
+[dstackai/dstack](https://github.com/dstackai/dstack) is an open-source container orchestrator that simplifies distributed training across cloud providers and on-premises environments
+without the need to use K8S or Slurm.
+
+### 1. Create fleet
+
+Before submitting distributed training jobs, create a `dstack` [fleet](https://dstack.ai/docs/concepts/fleets).
+
+### 2. Run a Ray cluster task
+
+Once the fleet is created, define and apply a Ray cluster task:
+
+```shell
+$ dstack apply -f examples/distributed-training/ray-ragen/.dstack.yml
+```
+
+You can find the task configuration example at [`examples/distributed-training/ray-ragen/.dstack.yml`](https://github.com/dstackai/dstack/blob/master/examples/distributed-training/ray-ragen/.dstack.yml).
+
+The `dstack apply` command will provision the Ray cluster with all dependencies and forward the Ray dashboard port to `localhost:8265`.
+
+
+### 3. Submit a training job
+
+Now you can submit a training job locally to the Ray cluster:
+
+```shell
+$ RAY_ADDRESS=http://localhost:8265
+$ ray job submit \
+    ...
+```
+
+See the full [RAGEN+Ray example](https://dstack.ai/examples/distributed-training/ray-ragen/).
+
+For more details on how `dstack` can be used for distributed training, check out the [Clusters](https://dstack.ai/docs/guides/clusters/) guide.

+# Mutual Information Metrics for Collapse Detection
+
+This document provides a comprehensive explanation of the mutual information (MI) based metrics used in RAGEN for detecting training collapse phenomena.
+
+## 1. Overview: Two Core Metrics
+
+We focus on two diagnostic quantities:
+
+| Quantity | Meaning | Diagnostic Metric |
+|--------------|------------|-------------------|
+| **Within-input variability** | How much reasoning varies under the same input | $H(Z \mid X)$ |
+| **Across-input dependence** | How much reasoning still depends on the input | $I(X; Z)$ |
+
+**Key Insight**: We compute MI under the batch's empirical input distribution (uniform over prompts), not the true $p(x)$. This is exactly what's needed for diagnosing whether reasoning remains input-dependent inside a training batch.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Design Decision: Partitioning $X$ and $Z$
+
+The choice of how to partition the sequence into conditioning context $X$ and reasoning $Z$ is crucial for meaningful collapse detection. The partition answers: **"Which segment of generation depends on which segment of input context?"**
+
+### 2.1 Design Goal
+
+We want to measure whether the reasoning content becomes increasingly input-independent (i.e., ignoring the environment state and producing generic outputs), while also tracking how much variability remains under the same input.
+
+### 2.2 Recommended Partition
+
+For a typical agent turn with structure:
+```
+[System Prompt] [User: State] [Assistant:] <think> reasoning content </think> <answer> action </answer>
+```
+
+We define:
+
+| Variable | Content | Rationale |
+|----------|---------|-----------|
+| **$X$** | System prompt + User turn (state) + Assistant prefix + `<think>` tag | Everything the model sees *before* generating reasoning content |
+| **$Z$** | Reasoning content tokens (between `<think>` and `</think>`, **excluding both tags**) | The actual reasoning we want to measure dependency for |
+
+### 2.3 Why Include `<think>` in $X$?
+
+The `<think>` tag should be part of $X$ (conditioning context), not $Z$ (reasoning):
+
+1. **Semantic role**: `<think>` is a control token meaning "start generating reasoning" — it's a boundary marker, not reasoning content itself.
+
+2. **Near-constant token**: `<think>` appears identically in every sample, so including it in $Z$ would:
+   - Add no discriminative information between prompts
+   - Dilute entropy/MI statistics with high-probability constant tokens
+
+3. **Clean separation**: With `<think>` in $X$, the partition becomes: "everything before reasoning starts" vs "reasoning content itself"
+
+### 2.4 Why Exclude `</think>` from $Z$?
+
+The `</think>` closing tag should also be excluded from $Z$:
+
+1. **Structural boundary**: Like `<think>`, it's a format token, not reasoning content.
+
+2. **Format stability signal**: If `</think>` is included in $Z$, MI/entropy metrics would conflate:
+   - Reasoning content dependency (what we want)
+   - Format stability (whether the model reliably closes tags)
+
+3. **Cleaner interpretation**: Excluding both tags means $Z$ purely measures "does the reasoning *content* depend on the input state?"
+
+### 2.5 Implementation Mapping
+
+In the codebase, this corresponds to:
+
+| Field | Content |
+|-------|---------|
+| `first_turn_prompt_ids` | Tokens up to and including `<think>` |
+| `first_turn_reasoning_ids` | Reasoning content tokens only (no `<think>`, no `</think>`) |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Notation and Definitions
+
+### 3.1 Random Variables
+
+| Symbol | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| $X$ | Input context: system prompt + user turn + assistant prefix + `<think>` |
+| $Z$ | Reasoning content tokens (between `<think>` and `</think>`, excluding tags) |
+| $x_j$ | The $j$-th unique prompt in the batch, $j \in \{1, \ldots, N\}$ |
+| $z_{i,k}$ | The $k$-th reasoning sample for trajectory $i$ |
+| $N$ | Number of unique prompts in the batch |
+| $K$ | Number of reasoning samples per prompt (group size) |
+
+### 3.2 Probability Distributions
+
+| Symbol | Definition | Description |
+|--------|------------|-------------|
+| $p(z \mid x)$ | $\prod_{t=1}^{T} p_\theta(z_t \mid x, z_{1:t-1})$ | Conditional probability of reasoning $z$ given prompt $x$ under policy $\pi_\theta$ |
+| $p_{\text{mix}}(z)$ | $\frac{1}{N} \sum_{j=1}^{N} p(z \mid x_j)$ | Marginal probability under uniform prompt mixture |
+| $\hat{p}(x)$ | $\frac{1}{N}$ | Empirical (uniform) distribution over batch prompts |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Core Information-Theoretic Quantities
+
+### 4.1 Conditional Entropy $H(Z \mid X)$
+
+**Definition**: The expected uncertainty in the reasoning $Z$ given the prompt $X$.
+
+$$H(Z \mid X) = -\mathbb{E}_{x \sim \hat{p}(x)} \mathbb{E}_{z \sim p(z|x)} \left[ \log p(z \mid x) \right]$$
+
+**Estimation**: Using sampled (prompt, reasoning) pairs:
+
+$$\hat{H}(Z \mid X) = -\frac{1}{NK} \sum_{i,k} \log p(z_{i,k} \mid x_i)$$
+
+**Interpretation**:
+- **High $H(Z \mid X)$**: Model generates diverse responses for each prompt (stochastic policy)
+- **Low $H(Z \mid X)$**: Model generates deterministic/repetitive responses for each prompt
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:675-700`):
+```python
+conditional_entropy = -matched.mean().item()  # H(Z|X) estimate
+```
+
+### 4.2 Marginal Entropy $H(Z)$
+
+**Definition**: The total entropy of reasoning under the marginal distribution.
+
+$$H(Z) = -\mathbb{E}_{z \sim p_{\text{mix}}(z)} \left[ \log p_{\text{mix}}(z) \right]$$
+
+**Estimation**: Using the mixture distribution:
+
+$$\hat{H}(Z) = -\frac{1}{NK} \sum_{i,k} \log p_{\text{mix}}(z_{i,k})$$
+
+where:
+
+$$p_{\text{mix}}(z) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{j=1}^{N} p(z \mid x_j)$$
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:675-700`):
+```python
+reasoning_entropy = -marginal.mean().item()  # H(Z) estimate
+```
+
+### 4.3 Mutual Information $I(X; Z)$
+
+**Definition**: The amount of information that the reasoning $Z$ contains about the prompt $X$.
+
+$$I(X; Z) = H(Z) - H(Z \mid X)$$
+
+Equivalently:
+
+$$I(X; Z) = \mathbb{E}_{x, z} \left[ \log \frac{p(z \mid x)}{p_{\text{mix}}(z)} \right]$$
+
+**Estimation**:
+
+$$\hat{I}(X; Z) = \frac{1}{NK} \sum_{i,k} \left[ \log p(z_{i,k} \mid x_i) - \log p_{\text{mix}}(z_{i,k}) \right]$$
+
+**Interpretation**:
+- **High $I(X; Z)$**: Reasoning is input-dependent (healthy)
+- **Low $I(X; Z)$**: Reasoning has weak input dependence
+- **Upper Bound**: $I(X; Z) \leq H(X) = \log N$ (when $X$ is uniform)
+
+**Practical Note on Negative Values**:
+- The true mutual information satisfies $I(X; Z) \geq 0$.
+- Our logged `mi_estimate` and `mi_seq_estimate` are finite-sample Monte Carlo estimates, not exact MI.
+- Because they average noisy sample terms of the form $\log p(z \mid x) - \log p_{\text{mix}}(z)$, they can temporarily dip below zero when the true MI is near zero or the sampled batch is noisy.
+- In practice, a small negative value should usually be read as "approximately zero input dependence within estimation noise," not as a violation of information theory.
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:563-590`):
+```python
+def _compute_mi_estimate(self, matched, marginal, N_prompts):
+    mi = matched.mean().item() - marginal.mean().item()
+    return {
+        "collapse/mi_estimate": mi,
+        "collapse/mi_upper_bound": math.log(N_prompts),
+    }
+```
+

+
+## 5. Computation Pipeline
+
+### 5.1 Cross Log-Probability Matrix
+
+For each reasoning $z_{i,k}$ and each prompt $x_j$, we compute the cross log-probability:
+
+$$\ell_j(z_{i,k}) = \log p(z_{i,k} \mid x_j) = \sum_{t=1}^{T} \log p_\theta(z_{i,k,t} \mid x_j, z_{i,k,1:t-1})$$
+
+This forms a matrix $\mathbf{L} \in \mathbb{R}^{NK \times N}$ where:
+- Rows index (trajectory, sample) pairs
+- Columns index unique prompts
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:452-546`):
+```python
+def _compute_cross_log_probs(self, ...):
+    """
+    For each reasoning z_{i,k} and each prompt x_j:
+    1. Construct sequence [x_j | z_{i,k}]
+    2. Compute teacher-forcing log prob
+    3. Sum over reasoning tokens → ℓ_j(z_{i,k})
+    """
+    cross_log_probs = torch.zeros(NK, N, device=device)      # per-token mean
+    cross_log_probs_sum = torch.zeros(NK, N, device=device)  # per-sequence sum
+```
+
+### 5.2 Matched vs Marginal Log-Probabilities
+
+**Matched**: Log-probability of reasoning under its true prompt:
+$$\text{matched}_{i,k} = \ell_i(z_{i,k}) = \log p(z_{i,k} \mid x_i)$$
+
+**Marginal**: Log-probability under uniform prompt mixture:
+$$\text{marginal}_{i,k} = \log p_{\text{mix}}(z_{i,k}) = \log \left( \frac{1}{N} \sum_{j=1}^{N} \exp(\ell_j(z_{i,k})) \right)$$
+
+Using log-sum-exp for numerical stability:
+$$\text{marginal}_{i,k} = \text{logsumexp}_j(\ell_j(z_{i,k})) - \log N$$
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:548-561`):
+```python
+def _compute_log_prob_stats(self, cross_log_probs, col_ids):
+    NK, N = cross_log_probs.shape
+    matched = cross_log_probs[torch.arange(NK), col_ids]  # diagonal elements
+    marginal = torch.logsumexp(cross_log_probs, dim=1) - math.log(N)
+    return matched, marginal
+```
+
+---
+
+## 6. Per-Token vs Per-Sequence Metrics
+
+We compute two variants of each metric:
+
+| Variant | Normalization | Use Case |
+|---------|--------------|----------|
+| **Per-token** (`_est`) | Divide by sequence length | Length-invariant comparison |
+| **Per-sequence** (`_seq_est`) | Sum over tokens | Total information content |
+
+### 6.1 Per-Token (Length-Normalized)
+
+$$\bar{\ell}_j(z) = \frac{1}{T} \sum_{t=1}^{T} \log p(z_t \mid x_j, z_{1:t-1})$$
+
+This reduces length bias when comparing reasoning of different lengths.
+
+### 6.2 Per-Sequence (Sum)
+
+$$\ell_j(z) = \sum_{t=1}^{T} \log p(z_t \mid x_j, z_{1:t-1})$$
+
+This captures total log-probability without normalization.
+
+**Base Metric Suffixes**:
+- `collapse/mi_estimate` — Per-token MI
+- `collapse/mi_seq_estimate` — Per-sequence MI
+- `collapse/conditional_entropy_est` — Per-token $H(Z|X)$
+- `collapse/conditional_entropy_seq_est` — Per-sequence $H(Z|X)$
+- `collapse/reasoning_entropy_est` — Per-token $H(Z)$
+- `collapse/reasoning_entropy_seq_est` — Per-sequence $H(Z)$
+
+These are the raw suffixes produced inside `_compute_metrics_for_pairs`. In logged outputs, they are usually namespaced as `collapse_first_turn_sample/<suffix>` or `collapse_trajectory_sample/<suffix>`.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Additional Diagnostic Metrics
+
+### 7.1 Retrieval Accuracy
+
+**Definition**: Fraction of samples where the highest cross-log-probability matches the true prompt.
+If multiple prompts are identical (same tokenized prompt text), they are treated as equivalent columns, and any of those columns counts as correct for retrieval accuracy and chance.
+
+$$\text{Acc} = \frac{1}{NK} \sum_{i,k} \mathbf{1}\left[ \arg\max_j \ell_j(z_{i,k}) = i \right]$$
+
+**Interpretation**:
+- **High Accuracy** ($\approx 1$): Reasoning is highly prompt-specific
+- **Chance Level** ($\approx 1/N$): Reasoning is prompt-independent
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:592-673`):
+```python
+def _compute_retrieval_accuracy(self, cross_log_probs, col_ids, N_prompts):
+    predicted_cols = torch.argmax(cross_log_probs, dim=1)
+    correct = (predicted_cols == col_ids).float()
+    accuracy = correct.mean().item()
+    chance_level = 1.0 / N_prompts
+```
+
+**Base Metric Suffixes**:
+- `collapse/retrieval_accuracy` — Top-1 accuracy
+- `collapse/retrieval_accuracy@k` — Top-k accuracy (k ∈ {2, 4, 8})
+- `collapse/retrieval_chance_level` — Expected accuracy under random guessing
+- `collapse/retrieval_above_chance` — Accuracy improvement over chance
+- `collapse/retrieval_chance_level@k` — Expected top-k accuracy under random guessing
+- `collapse/retrieval_above_chance@k` — Top-k accuracy improvement over chance
+
+### 7.2 MI Z-Score
+
+**Definition**: Standardized MI using the marginal log-probability standard deviation.
+
+$$\text{MI-ZScore} = \frac{\text{matched} - \text{marginal}}{\sigma_{\text{marginal}} + \epsilon}$$
+
+where $\sigma_{\text{marginal}} = \text{std}(\text{marginal}_{i,k})$ and $\epsilon = 10^{-3}$ for stability.
+
+**Interpretation**: Measures how many standard deviations the matched log-prob is above the marginal. More robust to scale changes during training.
+
+**Practical Note on Extreme Negative Z-Scores**:
+- Negative `mi_zscore*` values are normal; they simply mean the matched log-prob is below the marginal baseline on that batch.
+- Very large-magnitude values, especially for `mi_zscore_seq`, often happen when `marginal_std` or `marginal_std_seq` becomes very small, so the normalization denominator is close to `std_eps`.
+- When this happens, interpret `mi_zscore*` together with `marginal_std*` and `mi_estimate` rather than in isolation.
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:302-320`):
+```python
+marginal_std = marginal.std(unbiased=False)
+metrics["collapse/mi_zscore"] = ((matched - marginal) / (marginal_std + self.std_eps)).mean().item()
+```
+
+### 7.3 EMA-Normalized MI Z-Score
+
+To handle variance drift during training, we track an exponential moving average of the marginal standard deviation:
+
+$$\sigma_{\text{EMA}}^{(t)} = \alpha \cdot \sigma_{\text{EMA}}^{(t-1)} + (1 - \alpha) \cdot \sigma_{\text{marginal}}^{(t)}$$
+
+where $\alpha = 0.9$ (default decay rate).
+
+**Base Metric Suffixes**:
+- `collapse/marginal_std` — Current batch marginal std
+- `collapse/marginal_std_seq` — Current batch marginal std (per-sequence)
+- `collapse/marginal_std_ema` — EMA of marginal std
+- `collapse/mi_zscore_ema` — MI Z-score normalized by EMA std
+- `collapse/marginal_std_ema_seq` — EMA of marginal std (per-sequence)
+- `collapse/mi_zscore_seq` — MI Z-score (per-sequence)
+- `collapse/mi_zscore_ema_seq` — MI Z-score normalized by EMA std (per-sequence)
+

+
+## 8. Multi-Turn Sampling Strategies
+
+For multi-turn trajectories, we support two sampling strategies:
+
+### 8.1 Trajectory-Uniform Sampling
+
+**Probability**: $\Pr(m, t) = \frac{1}{M} \cdot \frac{1}{T_m}$
+
+- First sample trajectory $m$ uniformly
+- Then sample turn $t$ uniformly within trajectory
+- Each trajectory has equal weight regardless of length
+
+**Code Reference** (`collapse_metrics.py:780-813`):
+```python
+def _sample_trajectory_uniform(self, ...):
+    """Each trajectory has equal weight regardless of length."""
+    for _ in range(num_to_sample):
+        m = np.random.randint(M)  # uniform over trajectories
+        t = np.random.randint(turn_counts[m])  # uniform over turns
+```
+
+### 8.2 Turn-Uniform Sampling (Disabled by Default)
+
+**Probability**: $\Pr(m, t) = \frac{1}{\sum_m T_m}$
+
+- Uniform over all (trajectory, turn) pairs
+- Longer trajectories contribute more samples
+
+---
+
+## 9. Summary of All Logged Metrics
+
+The code logs metrics in two layers:
+
+1. **Sample-scoped diagnostic metrics**: computed on sampled $(x, z)$ pairs, then namespaced by sampling strategy.
+2. **Global coverage / timing metrics**: logged directly without an additional sample prefix.
+
+### 9.1 W&B Namespace Patterns

+
+## 11. Mathematical Derivations
+
+### 11.1 MI Estimation via Importance Sampling
+
+The mutual information is:
+
+$$I(X; Z) = \mathbb{E}_{p(x,z)} \left[ \log \frac{p(z \mid x)}{p(z)} \right]$$
+
+Under the empirical distribution $\hat{p}(x) = 1/N$ (uniform over batch prompts):
+
+$$I(X; Z) = \mathbb{E}_{x \sim \hat{p}(x)} \mathbb{E}_{z \sim p(z|x)} \left[ \log \frac{p(z \mid x)}{p_{\text{mix}}(z)} \right]$$
+
+where $p_{\text{mix}}(z) = \sum_j \hat{p}(x_j) p(z \mid x_j) = \frac{1}{N} \sum_j p(z \mid x_j)$.
+
+Monte Carlo estimate with $K$ samples per prompt:
+
+$$\hat{I}(X; Z) = \frac{1}{NK} \sum_{i=1}^{N} \sum_{k=1}^{K} \left[ \log p(z_{i,k} \mid x_i) - \log p_{\text{mix}}(z_{i,k}) \right]$$
+
+### 11.2 Information-Theoretic Identity
+
+The fundamental identity relating our metrics:
+
+$$I(X; Z) = H(Z) - H(Z \mid X)$$
+
+This means:
+- If $H(Z|X)$ drops but $H(Z)$ stays constant → MI increases (good)
+- If both $H(Z)$ and $H(Z|X)$ drop equally → MI stays constant
+- If $H(Z) \to H(Z|X)$ → MI → 0 (input dependence vanishes)

+# Contributor Guide
+
+## Dev Environment Tips
+- Start by copying the environment variables with `cp .env.template .env`
+- Use uv for most commands (add a dependency, run python) to ensure you have the proper dependencies: https://docs.astral.sh/uv/
+- Use `uv run pre-commit install` to have pre-commits run automatically (pyright + mypy)
+- Install the pre-push hook `uv run pre-commit install --hook-type pre-push` to automatically run tests before pushing
+- Run `bash setup.sh` to install the elan suite with Lean 4 and sync of the `repl` and `mathlib4` repositories
+
+## Testing Instructions
+- Make sure you have a `.env` file where BASE points to `/workspace/fast-repl` as that's where you will iterate
+- Run `uv run pre-commit run --all-files` to check typing
+- Validate your changes by running tests: `uv run pytest`
+- Add or update tests for the code you change, even if nobody asked.
