 ## Notes
 
 - **Mypy is gradual**: strict only for `lerobot.envs`, `lerobot.configs`, `lerobot.optim`, `lerobot.model`, `lerobot.cameras`, `lerobot.motors`, `lerobot.transport`. Add type annotations when modifying these modules.
-- **Optional dependencies**: many policies, envs, and robots are behind extras (e.g., `lerobot[aloha]`). New imports for optional packages must be guarded or lazy. See `pyproject.toml [project.optional-dependencies]`.
+- **Imports**: prefer top-level imports; relative (`from .sibling import X`) across sibling files within a module, absolute (`from lerobot.module import X`) across modules.
+- **Optional dependencies**: many policies, envs, and robots are behind extras (e.g., `lerobot[aloha]`, see `pyproject.toml`). Guard optional imports with `TYPE_CHECKING or _foo_available` at module top + a `require_package(...)` check at use time. Reuse the `_foo_available` flags in `utils/import_utils.py`; don't call `is_package_available`.
 - **Video decoding**: datasets can store observations as video files. `LeRobotDataset` handles frame extraction, but tests need ffmpeg installed.
 - **Prioritize use of `uv run`** to execute Python commands (not raw `python` or `pip`).
