| # configs/ |
|
|
| Experiment configs consumed by [scripts/run_experiment.sh](../scripts/run_experiment.sh). |
| Each file describes one benchmark cell (or one smoke run that maps to a benchmark |
| cell) and is sourced as bash, so the schema is just env vars. |
|
|
| The currently verified benchmark-facing execution paths are: |
|
|
| - `ORCHESTRATION=plan_execute` |
| - `ORCHESTRATION=plan_execute` with `ENABLE_SELF_ASK=1` |
| - `ORCHESTRATION=verified_pe` |
| - `ORCHESTRATION=verified_pe` with `ENABLE_SELF_ASK=1` |
| - `ENABLE_SMARTGRID_SERVERS=1` |
| - Smart Grid MCP servers passed into AssetOpsBench `plan-execute` or the |
| repo-local PE-family wrappers via the same server-path contract |
|
|
| Agent-as-Tool now uses the repo-local default runner at `scripts/aat_runner.py` |
| (no template required). Repo-local Verified PE runner code exists; this branch |
| promotes the canonical Experiment 2 Cell Z config out of the legacy placeholder |
| and adds the Y/Z + Self-Ask variants. See |
| [../docs/orchestration_wiring.md](../docs/orchestration_wiring.md). |
|
|
| ## Naming |
|
|
| Use the cell name from [../docs/execution_plan.md](../docs/execution_plan.md). |
| The execution-facing config convention is: |
|
|
| - `configs/aat_{direct,mcp_baseline,mcp_optimized}.env` for the canonical |
| Experiment 1 Cell A / B / C runs |
| - `configs/aat_mcp_model_optimized.env` for exploratory Cell D, which stacks |
| optimized AaT MCP transport with model-side INT8/BF16/fp8-KV serving |
| - `configs/experiment2/` for the extra Experiment 2 templates that do not |
| already exist on `main` (currently the Plan-Execute / Cell Y lane and the |
| optional Cell Z follow-on plus the PE-family Self-Ask and optimized-serving |
| ablations) |
|
|
| The active cell mapping is: |
|
|
| | Cell | Orchestration | MCP mode | Suggested config name | |
| |---|---|---|---| |
| | A | Agent-as-Tool | direct | `aat_direct.env` | |
| | B | Agent-as-Tool | baseline | `aat_mcp_baseline.env` | |
| | C | Agent-as-Tool | optimized | `aat_mcp_optimized.env` | |
| | D | Agent-as-Tool | optimized + model-side | `aat_mcp_model_optimized.env` | |
| | Y | Plan-Execute | baseline | `experiment2/exp2_cell_Y_pe_mcp_baseline.env` | |
| | Y + Self-Ask | Plan-Execute | baseline | `experiment2/exp2_cell_Y_pe_self_ask_mcp_baseline.env` | |
| | Z | Verified PE follow-on | baseline | `experiment2/exp2_cell_Z_verified_pe_mcp_baseline.env` | |
| | Z + Self-Ask | Verified PE follow-on | baseline | `experiment2/exp2_cell_Z_verified_pe_self_ask_mcp_baseline.env` | |
| | Z + Self-Ask + D | Verified PE + Self-Ask | optimized + model-side | `experiment2/exp2_cell_ZSD_verified_pe_self_ask_mcp_model_optimized.env` | |
|
|
| ## Opportunistic config universe |
|
|
| `configs/config_universe/` is the broad generated inventory for deadline-period |
| compute waves. It covers all currently runnable method rows, all 31 canonical |
| scenarios, domain-slice reruns, reviewed generated-scenario stress rows, |
| mitigation ladders, context/repair/decoding ablations, and hosted WatsonX 70B |
| variants. Use the cohort TSV files in |
| `configs/config_universe/cohorts/` as runner manifests, and use |
| `configs/config_universe/catalog.tsv` to sort by expected trajectory count. |
| Per-row env files are generated locally on each VM by running |
| `python3 scripts/generate_config_universe.py`; `configs/config_universe/generated/` |
| is intentionally ignored rather than tracked. |
|
|
| The generator is deliberately wider than the paper tables. Completed runs still |
| need raw-dir pullback, count validation, judge rows, and evidence-registry |
| promotion before they become claim-grade evidence. |
|
|
| ## Required keys |
|
|
| - `EXPERIMENT_NAME` — short label; becomes part of the run ID |
| - `EXPERIMENT_CELL` — one of `A`, `B`, `C`, `D`, `Y`, `Z`, `ZSD` |
| - `EXPERIMENT_FAMILY` — e.g. `exp1_mcp_overhead`, `exp2_orchestration`, `smoke` |
| - `SCENARIOS_GLOB` — scenario files relative to repo root |
| - `SCENARIO_SET_NAME` — stable label for the scenario pack |
| - `MODEL_ID` — model string passed to AssetOpsBench `plan-execute` |
|
|
| ## Important optional keys |
|
|
| - `ORCHESTRATION` — `plan_execute`, `agent_as_tool`, or `verified_pe` |
| - `MCP_MODE` — `direct`, `baseline`, or `optimized` |
| - `ENABLE_SMARTGRID_SERVERS` — when `1`, pass this repo's four Smart Grid MCP |
| servers into `plan-execute` |
| - `ENABLE_WANDB` — when `1`, write the canonical config + summary fields to a |
| WandB run after the benchmark finishes |
| - `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_GUARD` — when `1`, apply the |
| `missing_evidence_final_answer_guard` during trial post-processing. This is |
| the #65 mitigation toggle for matched #66 reruns: all non-mitigation config |
| fields should stay aligned with the before-side run. |
| - `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR` — when `1`, enable the PE-family |
| `missing_evidence_retry_replan_guard` inside the runner. This requires |
| `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_GUARD=1` so the detection/accounting gate remains |
| active after recovery attempts. |
| - `MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR_MAX_ATTEMPTS` — maximum detector-driven repair |
| attempts per trial; defaults to `2`. |
| - `MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR_MAX_ATTEMPTS_PER_TARGET` — maximum detector-driven |
| retries per unresolved evidence target; defaults to `1`. |
| - `ENABLE_EXPLICIT_FAULT_RISK_ADJUDICATION` — when `1`, enable the PE-family |
| `explicit_fault_risk_adjudication_step`. This requires |
| `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_GUARD=1` so adjudicated runs keep the |
| truthfulness/accounting gate active. |
| - `LAUNCH_VLLM` — when `1`, launch the local vLLM server first and point |
| AssetOpsBench's LiteLLM client at `http://127.0.0.1:<port>/v1` |
| - `VLLM_DTYPE` — vLLM `--dtype`; defaults to `float16`, but Cell D uses |
| `bfloat16` for the compressed-tensors INT8 / fp8-KV stack |
| - `AOB_PATH` — path to the sibling AssetOpsBench checkout; defaults to |
| `../AssetOpsBench` relative to the shared project root, so it also works from |
| a git worktree |
|
|
| ### Orchestration-specific adapter hooks |
|
|
| - `AAT_RUNNER_TEMPLATE` — optional override when |
| `ORCHESTRATION=agent_as_tool`; otherwise the harness runs |
| `scripts/aat_runner.py` |
| - `AAT_PARALLEL_TOOL_CALLS` — optional AaT runner setting for the OpenAI |
| Agents SDK; defaults to `false` for local vLLM Llama 3 tool-call compatibility |
| - `HYBRID_RUNNER_TEMPLATE` — required only for the legacy `hybrid` placeholder |
| path |
| - `VERIFIED_PE_RUNNER_TEMPLATE` — optional override when |
| `ORCHESTRATION=verified_pe`; otherwise the repo-local Verified PE runner is |
| used |
|
|
| These are intentionally explicit. AaT now has a default benchmark dispatch |
| path; templates are reserved for parity smoke checks and one-off variants. |
|
|
| ### Mitigation ladder keys |
|
|
| These keys implement or reserve the recovery/adjudication follow-on spec in |
| [../docs/mitigation_recovery_adjudication.md](../docs/mitigation_recovery_adjudication.md). |
|
|
| | Key | Status | Behavior | |
| |---|---| |
| | `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR` | runnable for PE-family local runners | enables `missing_evidence_retry_replan_guard`; requires `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_GUARD=1` | |
| | `MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR_MAX_ATTEMPTS` | runnable | caps detector-driven repair attempts per trial | |
| | `MISSING_EVIDENCE_REPAIR_MAX_ATTEMPTS_PER_TARGET` | runnable | caps retries per unresolved evidence target | |
| | `ENABLE_EXPLICIT_FAULT_RISK_ADJUDICATION` | runnable for PE-family local runners | enables structured pre-finalization fault/risk adjudication; requires `ENABLE_MISSING_EVIDENCE_GUARD=1` | |
|
|
| ## Running |
|
|
| Dry-run the wiring first: |
|
|
| ```bash |
| DRY_RUN=1 bash scripts/run_experiment.sh configs/example_baseline.env |
| # or |
| DRY_RUN=1 bash scripts/run_experiment.sh configs/experiment2/exp2_cell_Y_pe_mcp_baseline.env |
| ``` |
|
|
| Submit the real job: |
|
|
| ```bash |
| sbatch scripts/run_experiment.sh configs/aat_mcp_baseline.env |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Output layout |
|
|
| Outputs follow the canonical `benchmarks/` shape: |
|
|
| - `benchmarks/cell_<...>/config.json` — reproducibility config, later patched |
| with `wandb_run_url` |
| - `benchmarks/cell_<...>/summary.json` — aggregate summary for the most recent |
| run of that cell |
| - `benchmarks/cell_<...>/raw/<run-id>/` — run-scoped raw outputs and logs |
| - one JSON file per scenario-trial |
| - `latencies.jsonl` |
| - `harness.log` |
| - `vllm.log` when local vLLM launch is enabled |
| - `meta.json` |
|
|
| ## Status |
|
|
| As of Apr 30, 2026: |
|
|
| - Plan-Execute wiring is implemented through AssetOpsBench's canonical |
| `plan-execute` CLI with explicit Smart Grid server overrides. |
| - WandB config + summary emission is wired in the benchmark runner. |
| - Experiment 1 analysis still maps to Cells A / B / C, but the execution |
| configs for those lanes stay on the canonical `configs/aat_*.env` names that |
| `main` already documents. |
| - AaT now uses `scripts/aat_runner.py` by default; templates only for variants. |
| - Verified PE / PE + Self-Ask are already runnable on the canonical harness |
| path. Cell Z raw run set still needs to be captured before Z is a |
| notebook-ready follow-on lane. |
| - Repo-local PE-family runners can use `MCP_MODE=optimized` to reuse initialized |
| MCP stdio sessions inside a scenario run. The first committed user is the |
| exploratory `ZSD` config, which stacks Verified PE + Self-Ask with the Cell D |
| INT8/BF16/fp8-KV serving profile. Slurm job |
| `9074775_exp2_cell_ZSD_verified_pe_self_ask_mcp_model_optimized` is the first |
| successful ZSD proof run (`6 / 6`, W&B `48nqpclw`, judge mean `0.611`). |
| - `configs/mitigation/` contains matched-rerun templates for the first |
| selected mitigation ladder: detection-only guard, detector-driven |
| retry/replan repair, and explicit fault/risk adjudication. They should be run |
| only as before/after follow-ons, not folded into the core Experiment 2 |
| baseline. |
