docs(eval-skill): add MRCR (NeMo Gym) benchmark - #2192
Conversation
Adds MRCR — a long-context co-reference retrieval benchmark — to the evaluation skill as a standalone NeMo Gym task, derived from the reviewed nemotron-nano-v35 NVFP4 golden config. MRCR is not an AA benchmark, so it lives under recipes/tasks/gym/ rather than aa_gym/ and is never generated as part of an "AA" request. Unlike GDPVal (the other gym task) it uses the simple_agent: no Apptainer SIF, no judge, no Tavily — grading is deterministic prefix-gated SequenceMatcher, so HF_TOKEN is the only secret. The cost is context length, not agent turns. - recipes/tasks/gym/mrcr.md: variant table (n3_1m / n3_128k / plain, which are not comparable to each other), 1M serving envelope, canary, score extraction incl. the per-needle-count strata. - recipes/examples/gym_mrcr/example_gym_mrcr.yaml: self-contained SLURM + vLLM config targeting the 1M variant, matching the golden. - SKILL.md: MRCR branch + task-recipe index entry. - references/quantization-benchmarks.md: table row + comparability notes. Repeat counts follow the chosen variant and are left as the golden has them (1M reports pass@1). Two traps are documented because they silently produce wrong-but-green scores: the Gym commit pin is inert on images where /opt/Gym is not a git repo, and --kv-cache-dtype fp8 must be held identical across baseline and candidate or the delta also measures KV-cache quantization.

Pin the MRCR preparation dependencies.
The N3 prepare path uses transformers.AutoTokenizer to count tokens and drops samples above 1,048,576 tokens. Line 132 installs unversioned packages, so dependency updates can change token counts and dataset membership. Use a committed lock or constraints file for tiktoken, transformers, and their tokenizer dependencies. Record its revision with each run.

Flattens the gym layout now that there are two gym benchmarks: recipes/examples/gym_gdpval/example_gym_gdpval.yaml -> recipes/examples/gym/example_gdpval.yaml recipes/examples/gym_mrcr/example_gym_mrcr.yaml -> recipes/examples/gym/example_mrcr.yaml recipes/tasks/aa_gym/gdpval.md -> recipes/tasks/gym/gdpval.md The per-benchmark example dirs held a single file each and repeated `gym` in both the dir and the filename; one `examples/gym/` dir with `example_<task>.yaml` matches the existing `example_eval.yaml` naming. Merging aa_gym/ into gym/ drops a signal that used to live in the path: aa_gym meant "part of the AA suite". GDPVal is AA, MRCR is not, so that membership now has to be stated rather than inferred from the directory. Both recipes say so in their header, and the SKILL.md index is now a table with an explicit "In AA suite?" column, so the AA rule (always generate a companion GDPVal config, never include MRCR) still resolves correctly. The gym/ dir groups by harness, not by suite. All referencing files updated: SKILL.md, both recipes, gym-gdpval.md, quantization-benchmarks.md, gdpval-sif.sh, env.example. Verified no stale aa_gym/gym_gdpval/gym_mrcr references remain and every recipes/ path referenced across both skill trees resolves on disk.

Use one path base in the task table.
The surrounding instructions use recipes/tasks/gym/... and recipes/examples/gym/..., but these table entries omit recipes/. Use repository-relative paths consistently, or state that table paths are relative to the recipes directory.

Cuts explanation that restated context rather than telling the reader what to do. No behavioural content removed — every trap, path, metric name and value is still stated, just once and in the place it is needed. recipes/tasks/gym/mrcr.md 225 -> 148 lines recipes/examples/gym/example_mrcr.yaml 318 -> 293 lines SKILL.md MRCR branch 28 -> 20 lines quantization-benchmarks.md bullet 11 -> 8 lines Main removals: the GDPVal-vs-MRCR comparison table (its content is two clauses of prose), the narrative around the Gym pin and the internal image's CVE-scan .git handling, per-image restatements of the same verification greps, and YAML comments that repeated the recipe. Verified after: YAML parses, both config_paths still name one variant, the folded-scalar no-'#' rule holds, and parallelism / max_new_tokens / pin / node counts / --kv-cache-dtype are unchanged.

Set ++num_repeats=1 in collect_rollout_params.
The example does not configure the runner repeat count. The MLflow description is metadata only. The pinned README runs the N3 1M variant with --num-repeats 4, while this guide extracts pass@1. Without an explicit override, the run is not fixed to the documented golden count.

Check the expected Gym commit, not only the marker.
These commands count === NeMo Gym commit ===, but they do not verify that the logged SHA is a431501a. A stale checkout can therefore pass the “applied” check and produce a non-comparable score. Match the expected SHA in both the full-run and canary checks, and fail when it is absent.

Scope the rollout-count check to full runs.
The canary command intentionally uses ++limit=5, so a canary run will have fewer than 2363 rollouts. State that the 2363/2363 check applies only to an uncapped full run.

Bot review (bedrock-claude-opus-5) — DM the bot to share feedback.
Design review (gate fired on 6 directories): the PR isn't a new subsystem — it adds one more task to the existing pattern for NeMo Gym benchmarks (recipes/tasks/<task>.md recipe + self-contained recipes/examples/.../example_<task>.yaml + a SKILL.md branch + a row in references/quantization-benchmarks.md), exactly as GDPVal already does. The only structural decision is the aa_gym/ + gym_gdpval//gym_mrcr/ → gym/ regrouping, and the PR body explicitly justifies it (group by harness, state AA membership per task in a table instead of encoding it in the path) and moves the membership signal into both recipe headers and the SKILL.md index table. That's a reasonable trade and no second mechanism is introduced, so I'm satisfied on design and reviewed for correctness.
I verified mechanically: the three renames landed (recipes/examples/gym/{example_gdpval,example_mrcr}.yaml, recipes/tasks/gym/), and every file in the repo that referenced aa_gym / gym_gdpval / examples/gym_* (SKILL.md, env.example, references/gym-gdpval.md, references/quantization-benchmarks.md, scripts/gdpval-sif.sh, the GDPVal recipe/example themselves) is updated in this PR — no stale references remain, and .claude/skills symlinks are per-skill dirs so the renames don't break them. num_nodes: 4 / num_instances: 4 matches references/multi-node.md pattern A, and --max-num-seqs 64 = ceil(256/4/1) is consistent with MRCR wiring parallelism into ++num_samples_in_parallel (so the deviation from the GDPVal note about parallelism being gym-internal is justified). Size (+502/-17, docs/config only) is fine, and no library code or dependency is touched.
Issues below are all doc/config-level; the adapter-key one (comment 1) is the one I'd want resolved before merge, because MRCR's prefix-gated grading turns a leaked reasoning trace into a silent 0 rather than a failure — the same class of "wrong-but-green" trap the PR is otherwise careful about. Also flagging for the record that the new YAML's header reads Copyright (c) 2025, NVIDIA CORPORATION while the canonical LICENSE_HEADER is 2026 NVIDIA CORPORATION & AFFILIATES; the insert-license hook only covers python/shell/c so nothing enforces it here and the sibling example_gdpval.yaml uses the same 2025 form — no action needed beyond awareness, but it's why I didn't treat this as a clean "standard header" approve.

process_reasoning_traces: true — is this actually the adapter key the 0.2.6 evaluator reads? Everywhere else in this skill the key is use_reasoning (SKILL.md has a whole "Reasoning adapter config (use_reasoning)" section, and recipes/examples/example_eval.yaml plus the two nemo_evaluator.yaml files under examples/ all use use_reasoning). process_reasoning_traces appears in exactly one place in the repo today: example_gdpval.yaml, which this file was derived from.
If the adapter silently ignores unknown keys, the trace isn't stripped — and unlike GDPVal (judge-scored, fairly tolerant) MRCR grades on SequenceMatcher.ratio() gated on an exact prefix, so a leaked trace scores 0. mrcr.md's own Canary section names exactly that symptom ("scores ~0 = the prefix gate failing … check process_reasoning_traces: true"), which is self-referential if the key is wrong.
Please confirm against the evaluator's adapter schema and either align to use_reasoning in both this file and mrcr.md, or add a one-line note that both names are accepted (and fix SKILL.md's section accordingly).

Bot comment.
The whole PR (correctly) hammers that the three variants use different datasets and are not comparable — but the MLflow tag records benchmark: nemo_gym.mrcr with no variant, so a 1M run and a 128k run land under the same tag. description mentions "MRCR 1M", but descriptions aren't queryable the way tags are, and the accessing-mlflow / compare-results skills key off the tags.
Suggest either benchmark: nemo_gym.mrcr_n3_1m or an extra variant: n3_1m tag, with a CHANGEME-style note that it must be updated together with the two config_paths lines. Same reasoning as the existing comment above about keeping sampling tags equal to the params — the tag is the only queryable record.

Bot comment.
The stated reason for use_caching: false looks wrong: the response cache keys on the request payload, so "near-identical" prompts across needle counts don't collide and can't serve each other's completions. The setting itself is fine (GDPVal does the same), but the rationale as written could teach the agent to disable caching elsewhere for a non-existent hazard. Consider just "Caching OFF — same as the other gym template; a cache hit across runs/variants would report stale completions" or drop the justification.

Bot comment.
The num_repeats column and this paragraph pull in opposite directions: the table gives concrete values (1 / 1 / 4) while the prose says upstream num_repeats is "a placeholder for type: benchmark datasets — the real count comes from the runner". Combined with the Score Extraction note that pass@k is "only meaningful when repeats > 1", an agent reading this on the plain config.yaml variant can't tell whether to harvest pass@1 or pass@4.
Either drop the column (and say the runner decides), or mark the values as "declared upstream, not necessarily effective" and state which metric to report per variant.

Two things here, given the PR body says no MRCR run was executed for this PR:
- Was
++limit=Nverified to be honoured byng_e2e_collect_rolloutson this pinned Gym commit? This is the sole documented canary for a benchmark whose failure mode is a wrong-but-green score, and the contrast with GDPVal ("unlike GDPVal") is a strong claim to make untested. If it wasn't exercised, please say so inline so the agent treats the first ~30 min of the real run as the real canary (as the GDPVal recipe does). ++limitcaps rollouts, not preparation — for the 1M variant the tokenize/drop-over-long prepare pass is a large part of the cost and still runs in full. Worth stating so nobody expects a 5-sample canary to be cheap.
Minor usability note: the override requires re-pasting the entire existing folded collect_rollout_params string ("<existing> ++limit=5"), which is ~15 lines and easy to corrupt. Suggesting the user edit their copy of the YAML instead would be more robust.

Now that recipes/examples/gym/ holds two examples, "the config template is recipes/examples/gym/" is ambiguous from a file that is GDPVal-specific. Point at recipes/examples/gym/example_gdpval.yaml.
Related: this file is described as "the shared machinery" for the gym path (install_on_the_fly semantics, prepare/rollout, Ray teardown) and mrcr.md reuses all of it verbatim, yet mrcr.md never links here. Either cross-link, or note in this file that the shared parts also apply to MRCR — otherwise the ~60-line gym bootstrap command: block (ray==2.49.2 pin, uid-scoped pkill, quoted-heredoc rollout, PYTHONPATH preservation) now exists twice with no pointer tying them together, and the next operational fix has to be applied in both examples.

What does this PR do?
Type of change: documentation (agent skill)
Adds MRCR — OpenAI's Multi-Round Co-reference Resolution, a long-context
retrieval benchmark — to the
evaluationskill as a standalone NeMo Gym task,derived from the reviewed
nemotron_nano_v35_nvfp4_mrcr_gymgolden config, thenregroups the gym tasks/examples under one
gym/dir.Each MRCR task is a long synthetic multi-turn conversation containing N
near-identical "needle" responses; the model must reproduce the Nth occurrence
verbatim behind a random prefix. Grading is deterministic —
SequenceMatcher.ratio(), gated on the response starting with the requiredprefix. Unlike GDPVal — the other gym task — it uses the
simple_agent: noApptainer SIF, no LLM judge, no Tavily, so
HF_TOKENis the only secret. Thecost is context length (up to 1M tokens), not agent turns.
MRCR is not an AA benchmark and is never generated for an "AA" request.

Repeat counts follow the chosen upstream variant and are left as the golden has
