docs(D): wire training evidence - link plots from HF model repo, add W&B run

- README Training Evidence section now embeds 4 PNGs via direct
huggingface.co/.../resolve/main/plots/... URLs from the model repo
instead of relative outputs/plots/ paths. The code repo cannot host
binary files (push gets rejected), so plots live with the trained model
weights at Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/plots/ and embed cross-repo.
- Honest framing: SFT phase landed cleanly (loss 3.20 -> 0.29, token-acc
0.46 -> 0.93). GRPO pipeline runs end-to-end on the OpenEnv server,
vLLM rollout, and HF push, but the reward stays at 0.0 because the
format gate is multiplicative and the policy strays from the templated
<answer>...</answer> output. Documented the diagnosis and the two
fixes queued for the next run.
- W&B run URL pasted into the Submission Links table.
- scripts/job_train.sh now `pip install -q matplotlib` so the in-job
plot generation step doesn't crash with ModuleNotFoundError next run.
- scripts/parse_log_to_plots.py is the local fallback that produced the
10 PNGs from the job log (handles UTF-16-LE, parses both SFT and GRPO
metrics).
- scripts/hf_jobs_helper.py gains a `submit` subcommand that uses
HfApi.run_job with explicit namespace, avoiding the /whoami-v2
rate-limit that bites the CLI path.

 ## Training Evidence
 
-![Reward curve](outputs/plots/reward_curve.png)
-*Composite reward over GRPO steps for Qwen 2.5 Coder 1.5B + LoRA on the FATHOM env. β=0.04, lr=5e-6, 8 generations / step.*
+### SFT warm-start — model learns the format and answer style cleanly
 
-![Loss curve](outputs/plots/loss_curve.png)
-*Training loss — descends as the policy learns the env reward shape.*
+![SFT loss](https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/resolve/main/plots/sft_loss.png)
+*SFT loss drops from 3.20 → 0.29 across 63 steps on 500 Claude-generated traces. The chat-template / `<answer>…</answer>` format is fully internalised by step ~25.*
 
-![Training summary (4-panel)](outputs/plots/training_summary.png)
-*Loss, mean reward, grad norm, KL divergence — confirms the policy update is healthy (gradient norm clipped, KL bounded by β=0.04).*
+![SFT token accuracy](https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/resolve/main/plots/sft_token_accuracy.png)
+*Mean per-token accuracy climbs from 0.46 → 0.93 over the SFT epoch — confirms the warm-start adapter generates the correct answer span ~93% of the time on training data.*
 
-W&B run: _link to be added once training completes._
+### GRPO — pipeline runs end-to-end on the OpenEnv server, but the reward curve is flat
 
-> If the plots above don't render, the training run is still completing — the post-training wrap script (`scripts/make_plots.py`) generates them from `trainer_state.json` and pushes to the model repo at <https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/tree/main/plots>.
+![GRPO reward curve](https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/resolve/main/plots/grpo_reward.png)
+*Composite reward curve over 50 GRPO steps for Qwen 2.5 Coder + LoRA on the FATHOM env. β=0.04, lr=5e-6, 8 generations / step. Reward stays at 0.0 — see the diagnosis below.*
+
+![GRPO completion length](https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/resolve/main/plots/grpo_completion_length.png)
+*Completion length stays at 2–13 tokens through training: the model is producing bare answer spans like `the man.` instead of the wrapped `<answer>the man</answer>` that `format_gate.py` requires. Because format gate is a multiplier, the entire composite reward is zeroed out.*
+
+![Training summary (8-panel)](https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/resolve/main/plots/training_summary.png)
+*All 8 GRPO metrics on one canvas — loss, reward, KL, entropy, grad norm, completion length, learning rate, advantage variance.*
+
+**What this run proves**
+
+1. The OpenEnv environment, sandboxed REPL, GRPO trainer, vLLM colocate rollout, and HF Hub model push all work end-to-end on a real cloud GPU.
+2. The SFT phase achieves a 91% reduction in loss and 2× token-accuracy improvement, demonstrating the warm-start adapter is fit for purpose.
+3. The flat GRPO reward exposes a real reward-design lesson: a multiplicative format gate without a soft-format prior collapses GRPO when the policy strays even slightly from the templated output. Two fixes are queued for the next run — (a) align the GRPO `_to_prompt` system message with the SFT template (one-line patch in `train/grpo.py` already prepared), and (b) replace the multiplicative gate with an additive 0.1 format-bonus so GRPO has signal to climb back toward the templated output.
+
+W&B run (full metric history, 113 steps): <https://wandb.ai/pratham-alwar05-indian-institute-of-information-technolo/huggingface/runs/sy1tqun0>
+
+All 10 plot PNGs are also published at <https://huggingface.co/Pratham-math/fathom-1.5b-grpo/tree/main/plots>.
