What it does

Ebench Setup is an agent skill from InternRobotics/EBench. Prepare or check an EBench evaluation environment for OpenPI, X-VLA, InternVLA-A1, or a custom policy. Use for first-run setup and baseline reproduction prerequisites.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Elemental Diagnosis of Generalist Mobile Manipulation Policies. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • First-run setup and baseline reproduction prerequisites

Example prompts

  • “/ebench-setup”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 355fe56. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • python

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ebench Setup loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 469 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Prepare EBench evaluation

Resolve paths from the EBench repository root. Read README.md, the selected baselines/<name>/README.md, and third_party/genmanip-client/pyproject.toml. Prefer the checked-out implementation when examples disagree with it.

Establish the execution path

  • Identify the model/checkpoint, online endpoint versus locally hosted GenManip, intended track/split, and available GPUs. Reuse information already supplied; ask only for missing inputs needed for the next action.
  • EBench contains adapters, not the Isaac Sim server. An online client does not need a local Isaac Sim installation. A local server requires a separate GenManip checkout and its environment/assets; inspect that checkout's instructions before proposing server commands.
  • Inspect git submodule status --recursive, the active Python interpreter, installed package locations, GPU availability, and checkpoint existence. Initialize missing pinned submodules with git submodule update --init --recursive when setup is requested; do not advance them to arbitrary upstream heads.
  • Install the pinned client in the selected model/client environment with python -m pip install -e third_party/genmanip-client. Choose full_numpy1 or full_numpy2 extras to match the baseline environment; do not install both. Keep incompatible baseline dependencies in separate environments.

Baseline-specific checks

BaselineSource of truthChecks that change the launch plan
X-VLAbaselines/X-VLA/run.py, scripts/run_xvla_eval.shCheck matching processor/checkpoint and requirements; worker IDs and GPU IDs are separate settings.
OpenPIbaselines/openpi/README.md, baselines/openpi/src/openpi/training/config.py, baselines/openpi/src/openpi/policies/ebench_policy.py, baselines/openpi/scripts/pi_eval_client_online.pyApply EBench overlays together; verify the selected config actually exists and uses checkpoint-compatible normalization. Model WebSocket server and eval client have separate endpoints/environments.
InternVLA-A1baselines/InternVLA-A1/inference.py, baselines/InternVLA-A1/eval_pjsim.shCheck upstream dependencies, checkpoint config/weights/stats.json, and the statistics key. Verify a documented wrapper actually exists before using it.

scripts/launch_pi_onlineeval.sh contains placeholder paths, activation commands, and settings; it is a template, not a ready-to-run launcher. Inspect shell wrappers before execution. Create a concrete local launch command using the user's paths rather than running placeholders or copying another machine's paths.

Verify and hand off

For a new online evaluation, collect the platform URL and locally configured API token; the user does not need an evaluation endpoint or task ID yet. Check gmp online submit --help and availability of jq if using the shell example in ebench-evaluate. After local prerequisites pass, an evaluation request proceeds through gmp online submit → queue/readiness → returned endpoint and task_id → model launch using that endpoint and run_id=task_id. A setup-only request stops at reporting readiness. Reuse an existing task when supplied.

Check imports and gmp --help in the selected environment before allocating a full run. Inspect CLI source if imports are unavailable. A connectivity test with gmp eval uses fake actions and is not a model evaluation; label it accordingly and keep its run separate from reported model results.

Report the interpreter/environment, pinned revisions, model path/config, dependency gaps, and launch command with credential placeholders. Distinguish checks actually run from inferred compatibility. Do not claim readiness while weights, server access, or imports remain unverified. If asked to proceed with evaluation, continue within the existing request once prerequisites are satisfied.
