- Rename teacher -> optimizer, student -> target across all code, configs, docs, prompts - CLI: --teacher_model -> --optimizer_model, --student_model -> --target_model - Remove best_skill files, keep only initial skills - Fix slow update gate (force write into skill) - Fix SLOW_UPDATE marker stripping - Remove deep_reflect and meta_reflect mechanisms - Update .env.example with export prefix and azure_cli docs - Add endpoint empty validation in azure_openai.py Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

# Configuration Guide
|
|
|
|
SkillOpt uses YAML configuration files with a hierarchical override system.
|
|
|
|
## Config Structure
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
configs/
|
|
├── _base_/
|
|
│ └── default.yaml # Global defaults
|
|
├── searchqa/
|
|
│ └── default.yaml # SearchQA overrides
|
|
├── docvqa/
|
|
│ └── default.yaml # DocVQA overrides
|
|
└── alfworld/
|
|
└── default.yaml # ALFWorld overrides
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Benchmark configs inherit from `_base_/default.yaml` and override specific values.
|
|
|
|
## Key Parameters
|
|
|
|
### Model
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
model:
|
|
backend: azure_openai # azure_openai | openai_chat | claude_code_exec | qwen
|
|
optimizer: gpt-5.5 # Optimizer model (for reflection)
|
|
target: gpt-5.5 # Target model (for rollout)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Training
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
train:
|
|
num_epochs: 4 # Number of training epochs
|
|
batch_size: 40 # Tasks per step (batch size)
|
|
accumulation: 1 # Gradient accumulation
|
|
seed: 42
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Gradient (Reflection)
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
gradient:
|
|
minibatch_size: 8 # Reflect minibatch size
|
|
analyst_workers: 16 # Parallel reflection workers
|
|
max_analyst_rounds: 3 # Max rounds of analyst reflection
|
|
failure_only: false # Only reflect on failures
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Optimizer
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
optimizer:
|
|
learning_rate: 4 # Max edits per step (edit budget)
|
|
min_learning_rate: 2 # Min edits for decay schedulers
|
|
lr_scheduler: cosine # constant | linear | cosine | autonomous
|
|
use_slow_update: true # Momentum-like blending at epoch boundary
|
|
slow_update_samples: 20 # Samples for slow update evaluation
|
|
use_meta_skill: true # Cross-epoch strategy memory
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Evaluation
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
evaluation:
|
|
use_gate: true # Validation gating (accept/reject updates)
|
|
eval_test: true # Run test evaluation after training
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Environment (Data)
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
env:
|
|
name: searchqa # Benchmark name
|
|
split_mode: ratio # ratio | split_dir
|
|
split_ratio: "2:1:7" # train:val:test ratio
|
|
data_path: "" # Path to dataset
|
|
exec_timeout: 120 # Per-task timeout (seconds)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## CLI Overrides
|
|
|
|
Override any config value from the command line:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python scripts/train.py \
|
|
--config configs/searchqa/default.yaml \
|
|
optimizer.learning_rate=16 \
|
|
optimizer.lr_scheduler=linear \
|
|
gradient.analyst_workers=8
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
Model credentials are loaded from environment variables:
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Backend | Description |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT` | azure_openai | Azure resource endpoint |
|
|
| `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY` | azure_openai | Azure API key |
|
|
| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | openai | OpenAI API key |
|
|
| `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` | claude | Anthropic API key |
|
|
| `QWEN_API_BASE` | qwen | Local Qwen vLLM endpoint |
|
|
|
