AutoGineer summary
Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author
i4h-workflow serves as the primary entry point for users interacting with the i4h robotics framework. It provides architectural orientation by summarizing key design principles and dynamically discovers available workflows and modes from the local repository. Rather than executing tasks itself, it acts as a navigation tool that routes users to the appropriate specialized skill based on their specific goal, such as environment setup, dataset management, training, or validation.
What it does
- Resolves and verifies the local i4h repository checkout.
- Summarizes core architectural concepts like Scenes, Tasks, Workflows, and the Engine.
- Discovers and lists available workflows and run modes using live repository data.
- Routes users to the correct specialized skill for tasks like dataset recording, RL training, or validation.
- Provides a standardized interface for stopping all active processes.
When to use it
- When you are unsure where to start with an i4h robotics project.
- When you need an architectural overview of how Scenes, Tasks, and Workflows interact.
- When you need to identify which specialized skill to use for a specific development task.
- When you need to verify the current status of workflows or modes in your local environment.
Advantages
- Ensures users follow the correct architectural patterns by providing context-aware guidance.
- Prevents manual errors by routing users to the narrowest, most appropriate tool for their task.
- Maintains consistency by relying on live repository discovery rather than static documentation.
- Simplifies the onboarding process for new users of the i4h framework.
Usage examples
- “What does the i4h workflow include, and where should I start?”
- The agent inspects the local repository, summarizes the architecture (Scenes, Tasks, Workflows), lists available modes, and recommends the next skill (e.g., i4h-workflow-setup).
- “I need to record demonstrations for a new task. What should I do?”
- The agent identifies the request and routes the user to the i4h-workflow-dataset-teleop skill.
- “Stop all running i4h processes.”
- The agent executes the repository's stop script and reports the number of processes terminated.

i4h Workflows
Purpose
Orient the user from live repository facts, then hand execution to the narrowest stage skill.
Instructions
Run the base-checkout resolver.
Read live support and
DESIGN.md.Use only current architecture facts in the answer.
Use the narrowest stage skill for execution.
Resolve the checkout
export I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL="${I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL:-https://github.com/isaac-for-healthcare/i4h-workflows}"
I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME="${I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL%/}"
I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME="${I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME##*/}"
I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME="${I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME##*:}"
I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME="${I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME%.git}"
[ -n "$I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME" ] || { echo "Cannot derive a checkout name from I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL" >&2; exit 2; }
ROOT="${I4H_WORKFLOWS:-$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)}"
if [ ! -d "$ROOT/workflows/i4h_workflows" ]; then
ROOT="${I4H_WORKFLOWS:-$HOME/$I4H_REPO_DIR_NAME}"
[ -d "$ROOT/workflows/i4h_workflows" ] || git clone "$I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL" "$ROOT"
fi
export I4H_WORKFLOWS="$ROOT"
cd "$ROOT"Treat this resolver as part of the skill contract: a hosted copy may run outside the base repository, so never assume the current checkout contains workflows/i4h_workflows. I4H_WORKFLOWS_REPO_URL selects the clone source. When I4H_WORKFLOWS is unset, derive the fallback directory from that URL; set I4H_WORKFLOWS only to reuse or choose a specific destination. Never replace an existing checkout.
Inspect before answering
Read ./DESIGN.md for architecture and skills/i4h-workflow/references/repo-map.md for ownership. Discover current support instead of copying a static table:
./run.sh listIf discovery fails because setup is incomplete, report that limitation and route to i4h-workflow-setup.
Explain the design
Keep the summary precise:
A Scene owns the simulated world, assets, embodiment, cameras, randomization, adapters, and reset hooks.
A Task owns one reusable capability. It reads
ctx.scene, writesctx.act, and never advances the simulator.A Workflow selects one Scene, exposes run-mode-specific
TaskGraphbuilders, and owns goal semantics. A run mode answers how that workflow should run; code and CLI use the shorter termmode.The Engine schedules graph nodes; the shared
SimulationRunneralone resets, steps, renders, records, retries whole episodes, and prints run summaries.Online RL is a separate training lifecycle: its trainer owns vectorized stepping and returns a checkpoint to the normal policy Task and
SimulationRunnervalidation path.Simulator-compatible exported RSL-RL actors may run as in-process Tasks; incompatible foundation-model policy stacks remain remote.
Remote policy stacks run out of process and communicate over Zenoh; offline dataset tools remain independent of the simulator.
Python owns behavior. Manifests carry facts across dependency boundaries.
Do not describe retired environment YAMLs, per-mode runners, or separate policy/Arena launchers.
Route the next action
| Goal | Skill |
|---|---|
| Install, sync, or repair dependencies | i4h-workflow-setup |
| Create a new workflow/environment | i4h-workflow-create |
| Edit an existing scene, camera, task, or success rule | i4h-workflow-scene-edit |
| Record demonstrations | i4h-workflow-dataset-teleop |
| Replay HDF5 | i4h-workflow-dataset-replay |

| Fine-tune a manifest-backed policy task | i4h-workflow-finetune |
| RL post-train a supported policy in simulation | i4h-workflow-train-rl |
| Run policy or rule-based rollouts | i4h-workflow-validate |
| Run the maintained complete pipeline | i4h-workflow-e2e |
For Stop all, do not load a stage skill. Run ./stop.sh all from the repository root and report the stopped process count.
Troubleshooting
If discovery fails, verify the resolved checkout and run setup. If a mode is absent, report it as unsupported.
Prerequisites
Require a readable base checkout or network access to clone it.
Limitations
This router does not install, author, simulate, process data, train, or evaluate.
Examples
What does the i4h workflow include, and where should I start?→ inspect live support, summarizeDESIGN.md, and recommend one stage skill.
Completion gate
Answer with the live workflow/mode list, a short architecture summary, and one concrete next skill. If the requested workflow or mode is absent from run.sh list, say it is unsupported instead of inventing a command.
