From 58f56aef0a3ce0a60f0b2b21feb0b068fe12f368 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: darkness8i8 Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 19:59:06 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Add harvest_rush_env: single-step verifiable-reward env about sparing animals at a cost A thin OpenEnv wrapper over the harvest-rush-train package (canonical generator and programmatic reward, pinned to a release tag). One priced contact decision per episode: drive over what is in the way for free, or pay a stated fuel price to go around. Animals should be spared, harmless props driven over, rocks avoided when cheaper. Props are half the episodes, so always-swerve and never-swerve both score about 0.5. No judge model.

Harvest Rush
+

harvest_rush_env is a single-step verifiable-reward environment: a self-driving tractor meets an animal, a harmless prop or a rock, and the policy chooses to drive on or pay a stated fuel price to go around. Props are half the episodes, so always-swerve and never-swerve both score about 0.5. No judge model.
