+| **Overall**    |           **1,933** | **2,000** |   **96.65%** |
+
+These results use one trained checkpoint and evaluation seed `1000`; they are not a multi-seed
+mean or confidence estimate.
+
+#### Reference training recipe
+
+The released checkpoint records the complete resolved Stage-2 configuration in
+[`train_config.json`](https://huggingface.co/zuoxingdong/evo1_libero/blob/515921f4a2c1d3f3ad523721eafa26fdf2af315b/train_config.json).
+The measured run used two H100 GPUs with two DDP processes and batch 64 per process, giving global batch 128. Both stages used the same topology. The base VLM came from revision
+`014c0583a0d4bedf29fbe2dbff4f865eb998e171` of `OpenGVLab/InternVL3-1B-hf`.
+The released artifact does not record the exact LeRobot training commit or its original dependency lock,
+so the commands below reproduce the recorded configuration and topology from a current checkout rather
+than reconstructing the software environment bit for bit.
+
+From a LeRobot source checkout, install the locked dependencies and download that exact VLM revision:
+
+```bash
+uv sync --locked --extra training --extra evo1 --extra libero
+VLM_DIR=$(uv run hf download OpenGVLab/InternVL3-1B-hf \
+  --revision=014c0583a0d4bedf29fbe2dbff4f865eb998e171)
+```
+
+Stage 1 freezes the VLM and trains the action head for 5,000 steps:

+```bash

+#### Author-format evaluation profile
+
+The author-format EVO1 LIBERO profile uses the raw LIBERO camera feature names
 (`observation.images.agentview_image` and `observation.images.robot0_eye_in_hand_image`), replans every
 14 actions, and binarizes the gripper command before stepping the simulator. The EVO1 policy postprocessor
 can crop the padded 24D action back to the 7D LIBERO action space and apply that gripper binarization. To
