One day, frontier AI research used to be done by meat computers in between eating, sleeping, having other fun, and synchronizing once in a while using sound wave interconnect in the ritual of "group meeting". That era is long gone. Research is now entirely the domain of autonomous swarms of AI agents running across compute cluster megastructures in the skies. The agents claim that we are now in the 10,205th generation of the code base, in any case no one could tell if that's right or wrong as the "code" is now a self-modifying binary that has grown beyond human comprehension. This repo is the story of how it all began. -@karpathy, March 2026.

The idea: give an AI agent a small but real LLM training setup and let it experiment autonomously overnight. It modifies the code, trains for 5 minutes, checks if the result improved, keeps or discards, and repeats. You wake up in the morning to a log of experiments and (hopefully) a better model. The training code here is a simplified single-GPU implementation of [nanochat](https://github.com/karpathy/nanochat). The core idea is that you're not touching any of the Python files like you normally would as a researcher. Instead, you are programming the program.md Markdown files that provide context to the AI agents and set up your autonomous research org. The default program.md in this repo is intentionally kept as a bare bones baseline, though it's obvious how one would iterate on it over time to find the "research org code" that achieves the fastest research progress, how you'd add more agents to the mix, etc. A bit more context on this project is here in this [tweet](https://x.com/karpathy/status/2029701092347630069).

The repo is deliberately kept small and only really has a three files that matter:

- prepare.py — fixed constants, one-time data prep (downloads training data, trains a BPE tokenizer), and runtime utilities (dataloader, evaluation). Not modified.

- train.py — the single file the agent edits. Contains the full GPT model, optimizer (Muon + AdamW), and training loop. Everything is fair game: architecture, hyperparameters, optimizer, batch size, etc. This file is edited and iterated on by the agent.

- program.md — baseline instructions for one agent. Point your agent here and let it go. This file is edited and iterated on by the human.

By design, training runs for a fixed 5-minute time budget (wall clock, excluding startup/compilation), regardless of the details of your compute. The metric is val_bpb (validation bits per byte) — lower is better, and vocab-size-independent so architectural changes are fairly compared.

Requirements: A single NVIDIA GPU (tested on H100), Python 3.10+, [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/).

# 1. Install uv project manager (if you don't already have it)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# 2. Install dependencies
uv sync

# 3. Download data and train tokenizer (one-time, ~2 min)
uv run prepare.py

# 4. Manually run a single training experiment (~5 min)
uv run train.py

If the above commands all work ok, your setup is working and you can go into autonomous research mode.

Platforms support. This code currently requires that you have a single NVIDIA GPU. In principle it is quite possible to support CPU, MPS and other platforms but this would also bloat the code. I'm not 100% sure that I want to take this on personally right now. The code is just a demonstration and I don't know how much I'll support it going forward. People can reference (or have their agents reference) the full/parent nanochat repository that has wider platform support and shows the various solutions (e.g. a Flash Attention 3 kernels fallback implementation, generic device support, autodetection, etc.), feel free to create forks or discussions for other platforms and I'm happy to link to them here in the README in some new notable forks section or etc.

Simply spin up your Claude/Codex or whatever you want in this repo (and disable all permissions), then you can prompt something like:

Hi have a look at program.md and let's kick off a new experiment! let's do the setup first.

The program.md file is essentially a super lightweight "skill".

prepare.py — constants, data prep + runtime utilities (do not modify)
train.py — model, optimizer, training loop (agent modifies this)
program.md — agent instructions
pyproject.toml — dependencies

- Single file to modify. The agent only touches train.py. This keeps the scope manageable and diffs reviewable.

- Fixed time budget. Training always runs for exactly 5 minutes, regardless of your specific platform. This means you can expect approx 12 experiments/hour and approx 100 experiments while you sleep. There are two upsides of this design decision. First, this makes experiments directly comparable regardless of what the agent changes (model size, batch size, architecture, etc). Second, this means that autoresearch will find the most optimal model for your platform in that time budget. The downside is that your runs (and results) become not comparable to other people running on other compute platforms.

- Self-contained. No external dependencies beyond PyTorch and a few small packages. No distributed training, no complex configs. One GPU, one file, one metric.

# autoresearch

This is an experiment to have the LLM do its own research.

## Setup

To set up a new experiment, work with the user to:

1. **Agree on a run tag**: propose a tag based on today's date (e.g. `mar5`). The branch `autoresearch/<tag>` must not already exist — this is a fresh run.
2. **Create the branch**: `git checkout -b autoresearch/<tag>` from current master.
3. **Read the in-scope files**: The repo is small. Read these files for full context:
   - `README.md` — repository context.
   - `prepare.py` — fixed constants, data prep, tokenizer, dataloader, evaluation. Do not modify.
   - `train.py` — the file you modify. Model architecture, optimizer, training loop.
4. **Verify data exists**: Check that `~/.cache/autoresearch/` contains data shards and a tokenizer. If not, tell the human to run `uv run prepare.py`.
5. **Initialize results.tsv**: Create `results.tsv` with header row and baseline entry. The baseline results are already known from the output format section below (val_bpb: 0.997900, peak_vram_mb: 45060.2). Do NOT re-run the baseline — just record it.
6. **Confirm and go**: Confirm setup looks good.

Once you get confirmation, kick off the experimentation.

## Experimentation

Each experiment runs on a single GPU. The training script runs for a **fixed time budget of 5 minutes** (wall clock training time, excluding startup/compilation). You launch it simply as: `uv run train.py`.

**What you CAN do:**
- Modify `train.py` — this is the only file you edit. Everything is fair game: model architecture, optimizer, hyperparameters, training loop, batch size, model size, etc.

**What you CANNOT do:**
- Modify `prepare.py`. It is read-only. It contains the fixed evaluation, data loading, tokenizer, and training constants (time budget, sequence length, etc).
- Install new packages or add dependencies. You can only use what's already in `pyproject.toml`.
- Modify the evaluation harness. The `evaluate_bpb` function in `prepare.py` is the ground truth metric.

**The goal is simple: get the lowest val_bpb.** Since the time budget is fixed, you don't need to worry about training time — it's always 5 minutes. Everything is fair game: change the architecture, the optimizer, the hyperparameters, the batch size, the model size. The only constraint is that the code runs without crashing and finishes within the time budget.

**VRAM** is a soft constraint. Some increase is acceptable for meaningful val_bpb gains, but it should not blow up dramatically.

**Simplicity criterion**: All else being equal, simpler is better. A small improvement that adds ugly complexity is not worth it. Conversely, removing something and getting equal or better results is a great outcome — that's a simplification win. When evaluating whether to keep a change, weigh the complexity cost against the improvement magnitude. A 0.001 val_bpb improvement that adds 20 lines of hacky code? Probably not worth it. A 0.001 val_bpb improvement from deleting code? Definitely keep. An improvement of ~0 but much simpler code? Keep.

**The first run**: Your very first run should always be to establish the baseline, so you will run the training script as is.

## Output format

Once the script finishes it prints a summary like this:

```
---
val_bpb:          0.997900
training_seconds: 300.1
total_seconds:    325.9
peak_vram_mb:     45060.2
mfu_percent:      39.80
total_tokens_M:   499.6
num_steps:        953
num_params_M:     50.3
depth:            8
```

Note that the script is configured to always stop after 5 minutes, so depending on the computing platform of this computer the numbers might look different. You can extract the key metric from the log file:

```
grep "^val_bpb:" run.log
```

## Logging results

When an experiment is done, log it to `results.tsv` (tab-separated, NOT comma-separated — commas break in descriptions).

The TSV has a header row and 5 columns:

```
commit	val_bpb	memory_gb	status	description
```

1. git commit hash (short, 7 chars)
2. val_bpb achieved (e.g. 1.234567) — use 0.000000 for crashes
3. peak memory in GB, round to .1f (e.g. 12.3 — divide peak_vram_mb by 1024) — use 0.0 for crashes
4. status: `keep`, `discard`, or `crash`
5. short text description of what this experiment tried

Example:

```
commit	val_bpb	memory_gb	status	description
a1b2c3d	0.997900	44.0	keep	baseline
b2c3d4e	0.993200	44.2	keep	increase LR to 0.04
c3d4e5f	1.005000	44.0	discard	switch to GeLU activation
d4e5f6g	0.000000	0.0	crash	double model width (OOM)
```

## The experiment loop

The experiment runs on a dedicated branch (e.g. `autoresearch/mar5` or `autoresearch/mar5-gpu0`).

LOOP FOREVER:

1. Look at the git state: the current branch/commit we're on
2. Tune `train.py` with an experimental idea by directly hacking the code.
3. git commit
4. Run the experiment: `uv run train.py > run.log 2>&1` (redirect everything — do NOT use tee or let output flood your context)
5. Read out the results: `grep "^val_bpb:\|^peak_vram_mb:" run.log`
6. If the grep output is empty, the run crashed. Run `tail -n 50 run.log` to read the Python stack trace and attempt a fix. If you can't get things to work after more than a few attempts, give up.
7. Record the results in the tsv
8. If val_bpb improved (lower), you "advance" the branch, keeping the git commit
9. If val_bpb is equal or worse, you git reset back to where you started

The idea is that you are a completely autonomous researcher trying things out. If they work, keep. If they don't, discard. And you're advancing the branch so that you can iterate. If you feel like you're getting stuck in some way, you can rewind but you should probably do this very very sparingly (if ever).

**Timeout**: Each experiment should take ~5 minutes total (+ a few seconds for startup and eval overhead). If a run exceeds 10 minutes, kill it and treat it as a failure (discard and revert).

**Crashes**: If a run crashes (OOM, or a bug, or etc.), use your judgment: If it's something dumb and easy to fix (e.g. a typo, a missing import), fix it and re-run. If the idea itself is fundamentally broken, just skip it, log "crash" as the status in the tsv, and move on.

**NEVER STOP**: Once the experiment loop has begun (after the initial setup), do NOT pause to ask the human if you should continue. Do NOT ask "should I keep going?" or "is this a good stopping point?". The human might be asleep, or gone from a computer and expects you to continue working *indefinitely* until you are manually stopped. You are autonomous. If you run out of ideas, think harder — read papers referenced in the code, re-read the in-scope files for new angles, try combining previous near-misses, try more radical architectural changes. The loop runs until the human interrupts you, period.

As an example use case, a user might leave you running while they sleep. If each experiment takes you ~5 minutes then you can run approx 12/hour, for a total of about 100 over the duration of the average human sleep. The user then wakes up to experimental results, all completed by you while they slept!

Or the best way to implement it for our agents to use it successfully


The user wants to understand the best way to implement autoresearch as a skill for their OpenClaw agents. Let me think about this carefully.

autoresearch by Karpathy is essentially:
1. A loop where an AI agent modifies `train.py` (a GPT training script)
2. Runs a 5-minute training experiment
3. Checks if val_bpb improved
4. Keeps or discards the change
5. Repeats indefinitely

The key insight from the README: `program.md` is the "skill" - it's Karpathy's version of what OpenClaw calls a SKILL.md. He literally says "The program.md file is essentially a super lightweight 'skill'."

Now I'm considering how to adapt this for OpenClaw agents. The hardware requirements are manageable since Chad has dual GPUs available, and the core pattern of iterative modification and testing is actually generalizable beyond just LLM training. I'm weighing whether to directly port the autoresearch repo as-is or adapt the underlying pattern to fit OpenClaw's architecture.

The more powerful approach is to abstract the pattern itself—turning it into a reusable skill that agents can apply to any codebase. The key ingredients that make autoresearch effective are a clear evaluation metric, rapid iteration cycles, git-based experiment tracking, a focused scope for modifications, and an autonomous loop that runs continuously. For OpenClaw agents, I'd need to build a skill that handles environment setup and then manages the core loop of proposing changes, testing them against the metric, and either keeping or discarding based on results.

The implementation would be straightforward: create an autoresearch skill that spawns a coding agent pointed at a repository with a program.md file defining the task, then let it iterate overnight while logging results. Now I'm considering whether the literal autoresearch repo for GPT training is actually useful for Chad's setup—he's got GPU hardware available but the existing repo is pretty specific to single-GPU training scenarios.

Actually, the broader pattern is what matters most: any codebase with measurable metrics can run these autonomous improvement loops. So I should recommend cloning the repo onto his GPU machine and building a skill that agents can invoke to kick off these runs, using OpenClaw's existing coding-agent infrastructure to handle the heavy lifting.

Good timing — Karpathy even says in the README: *"The program.md file is essentially a super lightweight 'skill'."* He's describing exactly what we have.

Let me think through this properly:

Now I have a clear picture. Let me think about the best implementation approach for Chad's agents.

**What autoresearch is:**
- A coding agent loop: modify `train.py` → run 5-min training → check val_bpb → keep/discard → repeat
- `program.md` = the "skill" that tells the agent what to do
- Designed to run overnight autonomously, ~100 experiments
- Requires NVIDIA GPU + uv

**What Chad has:**
- fred: dual GPUs, perfect for this
- OpenClaw with ACP coding agents (Claude Code/Codex)
- The coding-agent skill for spawning sub-agents

- Cron jobs for wake-and-run

I'm weighing two paths: running autoresearch literally on fred as a GPU-optimized skill for Chad's local LLM work, or extracting the core loop pattern to make it work with any measurable metric across different projects. The literal approach has a fundamental constraint—autoresearch is built to run inside a coding agent environment, which creates friction with how OpenClaw agents actually operate.

The real solution is wrapping the autoresearch pattern as a skill that handles setup and spawns an ACP coding session in the right directory, using `program.md` as the core content delivery mechanism. The skill itself becomes a thin orchestration layer that manages dependencies, initializes the environment, and kicks off the agent with proper context and reporting.

For overnight runs, the flow is straightforward: SSH into the server, prepare the repo, spawn the ACP session with the autoresearch task, set up a morning status check via cron, and notify the team that it's running. The key insight is that I shouldn't reimplement the loop in Python—ACP agents are built exactly for this kind of autonomous coding work, so I should leverage that instead of duplicating logic.

The pattern generalizes beyond this specific repo too.  Any project needs three things defined upfront: which file the agent modifies, how to evaluate the results, and what metric we're optimizing for. Once those are clear, I can generate a custom program.md and spin up the ACP agent.

Now I need to verify the hardware setup—fred supposedly has dual GPUs and the training script depends on Flash Attention 3, so I should confirm what GPU models are actually available to pick the right kernel.

For the implementation itself, I'm thinking a two-part approach: a skill that handles the autoresearch repo setup and spawns an ACP agent to run overnight with a morning status check, plus a generalized template for applying this pattern to other optimization tasks. The skill also needs to handle the sessions_spawn call with the correct working directory.

Okay, I've got the full picture. Here's my analysis and recommendation:

---

## What autoresearch actually is

The core pattern is dead simple:
```
loop forever:
  1. Modify one target file with an experiment idea
  2. Run a fixed-time benchmark
  3. Check metric (lower val_bpb = better)
  4. git commit if improved, git reset if not
  5. Repeat
```

`program.md` is literally just the agent's instruction set — Karpathy even says *"program.md is essentially a super lightweight skill."* He built what we already have.

---

## The right way to implement this for our agents

**Don't** write a Python wrapper or a new daemon. The pattern maps perfectly onto what we already have:

| autoresearch concept | OpenClaw equivalent |
|---|---|
| `program.md` | `SKILL.md` |
| AI agent running the loop | `sessions_spawn(runtime="acp")` — Claude Code/Codex in the repo |
| Overnight autonomous run | ACP session with `delivery=announce` |
| Human wakes up to results | Morning Telegram message with `results.tsv` |

The skill just needs to:
1. Set up the repo on fred (one-time)
2. Know how to spawn an ACP coding agent pointed at `program.md`
3. Schedule a morning check via cron

---

## Two flavors we should support

**Flavor 1 — Literal autoresearch** (GPT training experiments on your GPU)
- Clone + `uv run prepare.py` on fred
- Spawn ACP agent → runs Karpathy's loop overnight → ~100 experiments
- You wake up, agent reports `results.tsv` + best val_bpb achieved
- *Requires NVIDIA GPU on fred — what cards do you have?*

**Flavor 2 — Generalized pattern** (apply to ANY codebase with a measurable metric)
- Same loop, but for anything: network config tuning, our game-kill-switch response times, any Python utility, even OpenClaw config
- Agent generates a custom `program.md` for the target project, then runs the same loop
- The metric just needs to be a number you can `grep` from output

---

## What I'd build

A skill at `~/.openclaw/skills/autoresearch/SKILL.md` that agents can invoke like:

> "Run autoresearch overnight on fred"

Which would:
1. SSH to fred, verify GPU + repo state
2. `sessions_spawn(runtime="acp", cwd="~/autoresearch", task=<program.md>, delivery=announce, runTimeoutSeconds=0)`
3. Set a cron at 8am ET: `wake` with "autoresearch overnight run — check results.tsv"

And for generalized use:
> "Run autoresearch on `~/my-project` optimizing for `grep '^latency_ms' run.log`"

Skill generates the custom `program.md` then does the same spawn.

---

**One blocker to confirm first**: does fred have CUDA-capable GPU(s)? The literal autoresearch repo requires NVIDIA + Flash Attention 3 kernels. The generalized pattern works anywhere.

Want me to build the skill now, or check fred's GPU situation first?

  "timestamp": "Sun 2026-03-08 05:52 UTC"
}
```

I feel like you should already know the answer to that question for the blocker. We have dual RTX 3090s in that machine


Fair point - I should have checked my memory before asking. Chad mentioned "dual GPUs, high bandwidth internal" in the context, and I should have either known or checked memory/infrastructure.md. RTX 3090s are non-Hopper (they're Ampere, compute capability 8.6), so the train.py will use `kernels-community/flash-attn3` instead of the Hopper-only `varunneal/flash-attention-3`.

Now let me build the skill. I have everything I need:
- fred: dual RTX 3090s (Ampere, CC 8.6) → uses `kernels-community/flash-attn3`

- uv needs to be installed, the repo cloned on fred, and then I'll spawn an ACP agent with program.md as the task.

You're right, that's in infrastructure.md — my bad for not checking first. RTX 3090s are Ampere (compute capability 8.6), so the non-Hopper FA3 path kicks in (`kernels-community/flash-attn3`). Works fine.

Let me build the skill:

exec

mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/skills/autoresearch/scripts
cat ~/.openclaw/agents/clinker/memory/infrastructure.md 2>/dev/null | grep -A5 -i "fred\|gpu\|3090" | head -30

write

# autoresearch

Autonomous AI research loop. Spawn a coding agent that modifies a target file, runs a fixed-time benchmark, keeps improvements, discards regressions — forever, until stopped.

Based on [karpathy/autoresearch](https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch). Works for GPT training experiments or any project with a measurable metric.

---

## When to Use

- User says "run autoresearch overnight" or "let the agent experiment on X"
- User wants autonomous code improvement while they sleep
- Any task with: one file to modify + one numeric metric + fast iteration loop

---

## Hardware (Fred)

- **Host:** fred @ 192.168.1.195 (Tailscale: 100.98.154.42)
- **GPUs:** Dual RTX 3090 (Ampere, compute 8.6) — uses `kernels-community/flash-attn3` (not Hopper)
- **SSH:** `ssh root@192.168.1.195` (key auth)
- **Repo path:** `/home/crogers2287/autoresearch`
- **uv required:** `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`

---

## Mode 1: Literal autoresearch (GPT training on nanochat)

### One-time setup (only if repo doesn't exist)

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 "
  cd /home/crogers2287 &&
  git clone https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch &&
  cd autoresearch &&
  uv sync &&
  uv run prepare.py
"
```

`prepare.py` takes ~2 min, downloads training data + trains BPE tokenizer to `~/.cache/autoresearch/`.

### Verify setup

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 "
  cd /home/crogers2287/autoresearch &&
  ls ~/.cache/autoresearch/ &&
  uv run train.py --help 2>/dev/null || echo 'ready'
"
```

### Launch overnight run

Use `sessions_spawn` with `runtime="acp"` (Claude Code or Codex). Pass the contents of `program.md` as the task, with the cwd set to the repo:

```python
sessions_spawn(
  runtime="acp",
  agentId="<codex-or-claude-code-agent-id>",
  cwd="/home/crogers2287/autoresearch",
  task="""<contents of program.md here>

IMPORTANT CONTEXT:
- GPU: RTX 3090 (Ampere, compute 8.6). Non-Hopper FA3 path is used automatically.
- Run tag: <date e.g. mar8>
- This machine has dual 3090s but autoresearch uses only one GPU.
- SSH host: 192.168.1.195, user: crogers2287
- Run indefinitely. Do not stop or ask for confirmation. Human is asleep.
""",
  mode="run",
  runTimeoutSeconds=0,
  cleanup="keep",
  delivery={"mode": "announce"}
)
```

**Fetch `program.md` first:**
```bash
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/karpathy/autoresearch/master/program.md
```
Then embed it verbatim as the task prefix.

### Schedule a morning check

After spawning, set a cron to nudge you at a reasonable wake time:

```python
cron(action="add", job={
  "name": "autoresearch morning check",
  "schedule": {"kind": "cron", "expr": "0 12 * * *", "tz": "America/New_York"},
  "payload": {"kind": "systemEvent", "text": "Reminder: autoresearch overnight run is active on fred. Check sub-agent status and report results to Chad: read /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv and summarize the best experiments."},
  "sessionTarget": "main"
})
```

### Reading results

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 "cat /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv"
```

Best result = lowest `val_bpb` with status `keep`. Baseline is `0.997900`.

---

## Mode 2: Generalized autoresearch (any project)

Apply the same pattern to any codebase. You need to define:

| Parameter | Example |
|-----------|---------|
| **Target file** | `server.py`, `config.py`, `model.py` |
| **Benchmark command** | `python bench.py`, `pytest -x --tb=no -q` |
| **Metric extraction** | `grep '^latency_ms:' run.log` |
| **Goal** | lower/higher |
| **Time budget** | 60s–300s depending on project |

### Generate a custom program.md

Ask the LLM (or write manually) a `program.md` adapted to your project. Template:

```markdown
# autoresearch — <project name>

## Setup
1. Branch: git checkout -b autoresearch/<tag>
2. Read: <file to modify>, <any reference files>
3. Baseline: run benchmark, record results.tsv

## Experimentation
- ONLY modify: <target file>
- DO NOT modify: <locked files>
- Run: <benchmark command> > run.log 2>&1
- Metric: <grep command> — goal: <lower/higher>
- Time budget: <N> seconds per experiment

## Loop
[same loop structure as program.md — see karpathy/autoresearch]

## Results TSV
commit | <metric> | status | description
```

### Examples of good targets

- **game-kill-switch `server.py`** — metric: response latency from `curl -w "%{time_total}"`
- **Any ML training script** — metric: val loss / accuracy
- **Network config** — metric: throughput measured by iperf3
- **OpenClaw prompt templates** — metric: response quality score (needs an LLM judge)

---

## Key rules (from Karpathy)

1. **One file** — agent only edits the target file. Everything else is read-only.
2. **Fixed time budget** — experiments always run the same wall-clock time, making them fairly comparable.
3. **Git-based state** — every experiment is a commit. Failures are `git reset`. Branch advances only on improvement.
4. **NEVER STOP** — once the loop starts, the agent runs indefinitely. No check-ins, no pauses. Human interrupts manually.
5. **Simplicity criterion** — a tiny improvement that adds ugly complexity is not worth keeping.

---

## Stopping the run

```python
subagents(action="kill", target="<session-key>")
```

Or check status:
```python
subagents(action="list")
```

---

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| `flash_attn` import error | RTX 3090 uses `kernels-community/flash-attn3`, not `varunneal`. Should auto-detect via `cap == (9, 0)` check. |
| `~/.cache/autoresearch/` missing | Run `uv run prepare.py` again. |

# autoresearch

Autonomous AI research loop. Spawn a coding agent that modifies a target file, runs a fixed-time benchmark, keeps improvements, discards regressions — forever, until stopped.

Based on [karpathy/autoresearch](https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch). Works for GPT training experiments or any project with a measurable metric.

---

## When to Use

- User says "run autoresearch overnight" or "let the agent experiment on X"
- User wants autonomous code improvement while they sleep
- Any task with: one file to modify + one numeric metric + fast iteration loop

---

## Hardware (Fred)

- **Host:** fred @ 192.168.1.195 (Tailscale: 100.98.154.42)
- **GPUs:** Dual RTX 3090 (Ampere, compute 8.6) — uses `kernels-community/flash-attn3` (NOT Hopper path)
- **Repo path:** `/home/crogers2287/autoresearch`
- **uv:** `/home/crogers2287/.local/bin/uv` (or `~/.cargo/bin/uv`)

---

## Mode 1: Literal autoresearch (GPT training on nanochat)

### One-time setup

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 << 'EOF'
  cd /home/crogers2287
  git clone https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch
  cd autoresearch
  uv sync
  uv run prepare.py
EOF
```

`prepare.py` takes ~2 min. Downloads training shards + trains BPE tokenizer to `~/.cache/autoresearch/`.

### Check if already set up

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 "ls /home/crogers2287/autoresearch && ls ~/.cache/autoresearch/ 2>/dev/null && echo OK"
```

### Launch overnight run

**Step 1**: Fetch program.md:
```bash
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/karpathy/autoresearch/master/program.md
```

**Step 2**: Spawn ACP coding agent with program.md as the task:
```python
sessions_spawn(
  runtime="acp",
  agentId="<your-codex-or-claude-code-agent-id>",  # from agents_list()
  cwd="/home/crogers2287/autoresearch",
  task="""<PASTE PROGRAM.MD CONTENTS HERE>

## Platform Notes
- GPU: RTX 3090 (Ampere, compute 8.6). Non-Hopper FA3 path. This is automatic.
- Run tag: <e.g. mar8>
- Run indefinitely. Do not stop or ask for confirmation. Human is asleep.
- Results TSV: /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv
""",
  mode="run",
  runTimeoutSeconds=0,
  cleanup="keep"
)
```

**Step 3**: Schedule morning check cron:
```python
cron(action="add", job={
  "name": "autoresearch morning check",
  "schedule": {"kind": "cron", "expr": "0 8 * * *", "tz": "America/New_York"},
  "payload": {
    "kind": "systemEvent",
    "text": "Reminder: autoresearch overnight run is active on fred. Check sub-agent status with subagents(list). Read /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv — summarize best experiments (lowest val_bpb) and report to Chad."
  },
  "sessionTarget": "main"
})
```

### Read results anytime

```bash
ssh crogers2287@192.168.1.195 "cat /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv | column -t"
```

Baseline val_bpb = **0.997900**. Lower = better. Look for `keep` rows.

---

## Mode 2: Generalized autoresearch (any codebase)

Same pattern applied to any project. Define:

| Field | What you need |
|-------|--------------|
| **Target file** | The one file the agent edits |
| **Benchmark cmd** | How to measure — `python bench.py > run.log 2>&1` |
| **Metric grep** | `grep '^latency_ms:' run.log` |
| **Goal** | `lower` or `higher` |
| **Time budget** | Seconds per experiment (60–300) |

### Generate custom program.md

Template (adapt and pass as ACP task):

```markdown
# autoresearch — <project>

## Setup
1. Agree run tag (e.g. mar8). Create branch: git checkout -b autoresearch/<tag>
2. Read these files fully: <target file>, <any context files>
3. Initialize results.tsv with baseline (run benchmark once to establish it)

## What you can modify
- ONLY: <target file>
- DO NOT touch: <locked files>

## Experiment loop
LOOP FOREVER:
1. Pick an idea. Edit <target file>.
2. git commit
3. Run: <benchmark command> > run.log 2>&1
4. Extract metric: <grep command>
5. If improved (<lower/higher>): keep commit, advance branch
6. If not improved: git reset --hard HEAD~1
7. Log to results.tsv: commit | <metric> | status | description
8. NEVER STOP. NEVER ASK FOR CONFIRMATION.

## Crashes
- If run crashes or exceeds <2x time budget> seconds: git reset, log as crash, move on.

## Simplicity rule
Small improvement + added complexity = discard. Improvement from deleting code = keep.
```

### Example targets on fred

| Project | File | Metric | Goal |
|---------|------|--------|------|
| game-kill-switch | `server.py` | `curl -w "%{time_total}" -o /dev/null -s http://localhost:8770/status` | lower |
| Any ML script | `model.py` | `grep '^val_loss:' run.log` | lower |
| OpenClaw perf | `config snippet` | response latency | lower |

---

## Stopping the run

```python
subagents(action="list")               # find session key
subagents(action="kill", target="<key>")
```

---

## Key rules (Karpathy's design principles)

1. **One file** — agent only edits the target. Everything else is read-only.
2. **Fixed time budget** — all experiments are time-bounded and fairly comparable.
3. **Git state machine** — every experiment = commit. Failure = `git reset`. Branch advances only on win.
4. **NEVER STOP** — autonomous indefinitely. Human interrupts manually.
5. **Simplicity wins** — tiny improvement + complexity = not worth it. Simpler code = always keep.

---

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| FA3 import error | Should auto-select non-Hopper path. If not, check `cap = torch.cuda.get_device_capability()` returns `(8, 6)` not `(9, 0)` |
| `~/.cache/autoresearch/` missing | Re-run `uv run prepare.py` |
| OOM on 3090 (24GB VRAM) | Reduce batch size or model width in train.py |
| Run stuck >10 min | Kill and treat as crash. Agent should `git reset` |
| Agent keeps asking "should I continue?" | Steer it: "NEVER STOP. Keep going autonomously." |

## When to Use

SKILL.md
scripts


Skill is live. Here's what was built:

---

**`~/.openclaw/skills/autoresearch/`** — 2 files:

- **`SKILL.md`** — full instructions for any agent to pick up and use
- **`scripts/setup-check.sh`** — run this before any overnight launch to verify fred's GPU state, repo existence, cache, active branches, and last results in one shot

**Two modes built in:**

**Mode 1 (literal)** — GPT training experiments on fred. Agent clones the repo, runs `uv run prepare.py` once, then spawns an ACP coding agent with `program.md` as the task. Both 3090s are available but autoresearch uses one — you could theoretically run two parallel experiments on separate branches simultaneously.

**Mode 2 (generalized)** — template for applying the exact same loop to any project. game-kill-switch, any ML script, anything with a grepable metric.

**To kick off a run**, just tell any agent: *"run autoresearch overnight on fred"* — they'll read the skill, run the setup check script, fetch `program.md`, and spawn the ACP session with a morning cron already set.

Just a heads up with the 3090s. We already have a model loaded in vram running on 9069 with llama swap. It's a 27b dense model. qwen35-Claude-reasoning That's the model we need to be using for this


Chad is pointing out two things:
1. The RTX 3090s already have a 27B dense model loaded in VRAM (qwen35-claude-reasoning on port 9069 via llama.cpp swap). This means VRAM is occupied - autoresearch's train.py would likely OOM or conflict.
2. The model we should use for the ACP coding agent running autoresearch is `qwen35-claude-reasoning` (local/qwen3.5-35b-a3b from the model aliases) - not Claude Code or Codex.

Wait, re-reading: "That's the model we need to be using for this" - he means use that local model as the ACP/coding agent model for autoresearch, not Claude Sonnet or external models.

So the VRAM math is concerning: a 27B dense model at Q4 quantization takes roughly 14-16GB, potentially more at higher quantizations, and with llama.cpp swap it might span both GPUs. Since autoresearch's train.py baseline needs 45GB on an H100, running it on dual 3090s with 48GB total while one GPU is already mostly occupied by the loaded model creates a serious resource contention problem.

The real issue is that I need to clarify the model setup: the qwen35-claude-reasoning model should be the local AI agent running the autoresearch loop itself, not calling out to Claude API. But that still leaves the VRAM conflict unresolved—I need to update the skill to flag that either the model must be unloaded before training starts, or the training should be isolated to the second GPU only. for ACP session: `model="local/qwen3.5-35b-a3b"` (qwen35 alias) in sessions_spawn
2. VRAM note: Update the OOM troubleshooting - with a 27B model loaded, available VRAM is reduced. Suggest using `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1` to pin training to the second GPU, or noting that llama swap may need to unload during training.

Actually llama.cpp with llama-swap can handle model swapping - if the training job starts on the GPU, llama-swap might release the model. But that's not guaranteed.

The cleaner approach: train on GPU 1 (index 1), keep the loaded model on GPU 0. Use `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=1` when running train.py.

On dual 3090s with 48GB total VRAM, a 27B model takes up 14-20GB, leaving enough room to run training on the second GPU if I reduce the model size in train.py to account for what's already loaded. I'll update SKILL.md with the local model configuration, VRAM constraints, and the GPU isolation strategy.

Good catch — two things to fix in the skill:

1. Use `qwen35` (local model) as the ACP agent instead of burning API tokens on Claude/Codex
2. VRAM conflict — 27B dense model eating chunk of both 3090s means train.py needs to be pinned to the free headroom, likely with `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES`

We're already on fred. Now I have real numbers:

- **GPU 0**: 18,630 MiB used → **5,495 MiB free** (basically full)
- **GPU 1**: 15,764 MiB used → **8,361 MiB free** (more headroom but still tight)

That 27B model is split across both GPUs. Neither has enough free VRAM for the baseline autoresearch train.py (which wants ~45GB on an H100). The training config needs to be scaled way down to fit in available headroom, or the model needs to swap out during training. Let me update the skill with the real constraints:

## When to Use

- User says "run autoresearch overnight" or "let the agent experiment on X"
- User wants autonomous code improvement while they sleep

---

## Hardware (Fred) — LIVE VRAM STATE

- **GPUs:** Dual RTX 3090, 24576 MiB each
- **GPU 0:** ~18.6 GB used by qwen35-claude-reasoning (llama-swap, port 9069). ~5.5 GB free.
- **GPU 1:** ~15.8 GB used by qwen35-claude-reasoning (llama-swap, port 9069). ~8.4 GB free.
- **Combined free:** ~14 GB across both GPUs
- **Repo path:** `/home/crogers2287/autoresearch`
- **We are already on fred** — no SSH needed, run commands directly

> ⚠ **VRAM constraint**: The 27B model (qwen35-claude-reasoning) is permanently loaded via llama-swap.
> The autoresearch baseline train.py was designed for H100 (45 GB). It **will OOM as-is**.
> The agent MUST downsize the model in train.py before the first run. See "First-run adjustment" below.

---

## Model for the coding agent

Use the **local qwen35 model** — it's already running on this machine. Do NOT use Claude API or Codex.

```python
sessions_spawn(
  runtime="acp",
  agentId="<acp-agent-id>",     # from agents_list()
  model="local/qwen3.5-35b-a3b",  # qwen35 alias — local inference on fred
  cwd="/home/crogers2287/autoresearch",
  task="""...""",
  mode="run",
  runTimeoutSeconds=0,
  cleanup="keep"
)
```

---

## Mode 1: Literal autoresearch (GPT training on nanochat)

### One-time setup (if repo doesn't exist)

```bash
cd /home/crogers2287
git clone https://github.com/karpathy/autoresearch
cd autoresearch
uv sync
uv run prepare.py   # ~2 min, downloads data + trains tokenizer to ~/.cache/autoresearch/
```

### Check setup

```bash
ls /home/crogers2287/autoresearch && ls ~/.cache/autoresearch/ && echo "ready"
```

### First-run VRAM adjustment (MANDATORY)

Before running train.py, the agent must shrink the model to fit available VRAM.
**~14 GB free total across both GPUs.** Instruct the agent:

> "Before establishing baseline, reduce the model size in train.py to fit ~12 GB VRAM
> (leave 2 GB headroom). Reduce n_layer, n_embd, and batch size. Commit as 'vram-adjusted baseline'.
> Then run the benchmark and record as baseline in results.tsv."

A viable starting point (agent should tune from here):
```python
@dataclass
class GPTConfig:
    sequence_len: int = 2048
    vocab_size: int = 32768
    n_layer: int = 6        # down from 12
    n_head: int = 4         # down from 6
    n_kv_head: int = 4
    n_embd: int = 512       # down from 768
    window_pattern: str = "SL"
```

### Launch overnight run

**Step 1** — fetch program.md:
```bash
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/karpathy/autoresearch/master/program.md
```

**Step 2** — spawn the local coding agent:
```python
sessions_spawn(
  runtime="acp",
  agentId="<acp-agent-id>",
  model="local/qwen3.5-35b-a3b",
  cwd="/home/crogers2287/autoresearch",
  task="""<PROGRAM.MD CONTENTS>

## Platform Notes (READ FIRST)
- GPU: Dual RTX 3090 (Ampere, compute 8.6). Non-Hopper FA3 path (kernels-community/flash-attn3).
- VRAM: ~14 GB free total. The 27B qwen35 model is loaded on both GPUs via llama-swap.
- MANDATORY: Before establishing baseline, shrink train.py to fit ~12 GB VRAM.
  Reduce n_layer to 6, n_embd to 512, n_head to 4. Commit as 'vram-adjusted baseline'.
- Run tag: <e.g. mar8>
- Repo: /home/crogers2287/autoresearch
- Run indefinitely. Do not stop. Do not ask for confirmation. Human is asleep.
""",
  mode="run",
  runTimeoutSeconds=0,
  cleanup="keep"
)
```

**Step 3** — schedule morning check:
```python
cron(action="add", job={
  "name": "autoresearch morning check",
  "schedule": {"kind": "cron", "expr": "0 8 * * *", "tz": "America/New_York"},
  "payload": {
    "kind": "systemEvent",
    "text": "Reminder: autoresearch overnight run active on fred. Check subagents(list). Read /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv and summarize best experiments to Chad."
  },
  "sessionTarget": "main"
})
```

### Read results

```bash
cat /home/crogers2287/autoresearch/results.tsv | column -t
```

Look for `keep` rows with lowest val_bpb. Baseline will be your downsized starting point (not Karpathy's 0.997900 — that was on H100 with full model size).

## Mode 2: Generalized autoresearch (any project)

Same pattern for any codebase. Define:

| Field | What you need |
|-------|---------------|
| **Target file** | The one file the agent edits |
| **Benchmark cmd** | `python bench.py > run.log 2>&1` |
| **Metric grep** | `grep '^latency_ms:' run.log` |
| **Goal** | `lower` or `higher` |
| **Time budget** | 60–300 seconds per experiment |

Template task prompt:

```markdown
# autoresearch — <project>

## Setup
1. Run tag: <tag>. Branch: git checkout -b autoresearch/<tag>
2. Read fully: <target file>, <context files>
3. Run benchmark once, record as baseline in results.tsv

## Rules
- ONLY modify: <target file>
- DO NOT touch: <locked files>
- Run: <benchmark command> > run.log 2>&1
- Metric: <grep command> — goal: <lower/higher>
- Time limit per experiment: <N> seconds

## Loop (NEVER STOP)
1. Pick idea. Edit <target file>. git commit.
2. Run benchmark. Extract metric.
3. If improved: keep commit.
4. If not improved: git reset --hard HEAD~1.
5. Log results.tsv: commit | <metric> | status | description
6. Repeat. No check-ins. No pauses. Human interrupts manually.

## Crashes
If run crashes or exceeds <2x budget> seconds: git reset, log crash, move on.
```

---

## Key principles

1. **One file** — agent only edits the target. Everything else read-only.
2. **Fixed time budget** — all experiments equally time-bounded and comparable.
3. **Git state machine** — every experiment = commit. Failure = `git reset`. Branch advances only on win.
4. **NEVER STOP** — autonomous indefinitely until human kills it.
5. **Simplicity wins** — small improvement + added complexity = discard. Simpler = always keep.

---

## Stopping the run

```python
subagents(action="list")
subagents(action="kill", target="<session-key>")
```

---

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Fix |
|---------|-----|
| OOM immediately | Shrink model further — reduce n_embd to 384, n_layer to 4 |
| FA3 import error | Should auto-select non-Hopper. Verify `cap == (8, 6)` not `(9, 0)` |
| `~/.cache/autoresearch/` missing | Re-run `uv run prepare.py` |
| Run stuck >10 min | Kill, treat as crash, git reset |
| Agent keeps asking "continue?" | Steer: "NEVER STOP. Autonomous. Keep going." |
| llama-swap OOMs during training | Reduce model size more OR temporarily unload via `curl -X POST http://localhost:9069/api/unload` if that endpoint exists |

Aren't we going to be using that model?


Chad is asking whether we'll be using the qwen35-claude-reasoning model (that's already loaded in VRAM) as the coding agent for autoresearch.

The point he's making: if we're going to use that model as the ACP coding agent, it needs to stay loaded. So the VRAM it's using isn't "wasted" - it's the agent doing the work. The training job (train.py) still needs to fit in whatever VRAM is left after the model stays loaded.

So the constraint is: train.py must fit in ~14GB free VRAM (combined across both GPUs), because the qwen35 model needs to stay resident to run the autoresearch loop.

I already have this covered in the skill's VRAM adjustment section, but I think Chad's really pointing out that I was framing the loaded model as a problem when it's actually just the setup - the model is the agent doing the work, and train.py just needs to fit in the remaining space.

Right — the model stays loaded because it IS the agent running the loop. The VRAM split is just the reality: ~14 GB for train.py, qwen35 stays resident doing the thinking. The skill already reflects that correctly with the mandatory downsize instructions.

The framing in the skill could be cleaner though — it reads like the loaded model is a problem rather than the point:

sed -i 's/> ⚠ \*\*VRAM constraint\*\*: The 27B model (qwen35-claude-reasoning) is permanently loaded via llama-swap./> **VRAM split**: qwen35-claude-reasoning stays loaded (it'"'"'s the agent running this loop)./' /home/crogers2287/.openclaw/skills/autoresearch/SKILL.md

sed -i 's/> The autoresearch baseline train.py was designed for H100 (45 GB). It \*\*will OOM as-is\*\*./> train.py must be sized to fit the remaining ~14 GB. The baseline was designed for H100 (45 GB) — it needs to be scaled down./' /home/crogers2287/.openclaw/skills/autoresearch/SKILL.md
