Pepijn 47fb8318b1 chore(training): widen augmentation envelope after live-robot diagnostic
The tensor-level comparison between dry-run (dataset frame) and live-
robot inference proved the runtime is bug-free — same shape, dtype,
device, channel order, batch dim, and normalization on both paths.
The remaining variable: front-camera mean brightness was 0.26 live vs
0.39 on the dataset frame, ~33% darker. Training augmentation only
covered ±20% brightness, so the live scene sits just outside the
supervised envelope and the LM head collapses to its dominant prior.

Widen the augmentation knobs for the next retrain:

  * brightness    0.8–1.2  → 0.5–1.6   (covers ~30% darker / 60% lighter)
  * contrast      0.8–1.2  → 0.6–1.5
  * saturation    0.5–1.5  → 0.3–1.7
  * hue          ±0.05    → ±0.10
  * affine        ±5°/±5%  → ±15°/±15% (covers cube placement / camera drift)
  * max_num_transforms 3 → 4

And bump prompt-component dropout (subtask 0.20 → 0.30) so the LM
can't lean on stale memorised plan/memory at inference.

# SmolVLA2 training on an annotated dataset, with image augmentation
# and per-component prompt dropout enabled — the two regularisers
# that move the model away from the "text_loss=6e-6 memorised one
# epoch worth of frames" failure mode toward "learns concepts, not
# pixels".
#
# What the regularisers do:
#
# * --dataset.image_transforms.enable=true: applies torchvision
# v2 ColorJitter (brightness/contrast/saturation/hue),
# SharpnessJitter and RandomAffine per frame at training time.
# Set max_num_transforms to control how many are sampled per
# frame; defaults to 3 of the 6.
# * --policy.plan_dropout_prob / memory / subtask: at training,
# randomly drop the context messages that carry the named
# binding so the model is forced to handle missing/stale context.
# Mirrors Pi0.7's prompt-component dropout (§V.E).
#
# Expected effect: text_loss plateaus higher (~0.5-2.0 instead of
# ~1e-5) and the model handles slight prompt/scene drift at
# inference instead of collapsing to memorised fragments.
