#!/bin/bash
# Fine-tune SmolVLA (lerobot/smolvla_base) on the phase 2 sim dataset, overhead and wrist
# cameras only, and push the result to the Hugging Face Hub.
#
# The base model was pretrained with cameras named camera1..camera3; the rename map
# feeds our overhead view as camera1 and the wrist view as camera2 (camera3 unused).
# Starts from the base model unless BASE names a checkpoint to continue from (for example the
# baseline, to fine-tune it on correction demonstrations).
# Run from the project root on the GPU pod, after sim/make_train_view.py:
#   STEPS=20000 bash sim/train_policy.sh
# Baseline (overhead and wrist only already, no train view needed):
#   ROOT=data/so101_chess_baseline REPO=Machanize/chess_phase_smolvla_baseline \
#     JOB=chess_phase_smolvla_baseline STEPS=10000 bash sim/train_policy.sh
# EXTRA_ARGS adds lerobot-train options (for example --policy.optimizer_lr=0.0).
# Note: when BASE is a trained checkpoint, lerobot-train replaces its saved state/action
# normalization with the statistics of the dataset at ROOT (lerobot_train.py, overrides).
