Data directory notes

This page is the English entry point for the repository data directory note.

What the data directory note explains

It explains what belongs under data/, why run outputs are grouped by run_id, and why the project avoids scattering long-lived artifacts across unrelated folders.

Why this matters

The project is designed for restartable training and later analysis. Both depend on having one predictable place to find run outputs.

Inputs and outputs

  • input: generated checkpoints, game records, metrics, plots, and related run files
  • output: a consistent data/runs/<run_id>/ structure

How to judge a normal result

  • one run maps to one run directory
  • top-level data/ does not grow ad hoc subdirectories for each artifact type
  • tools can locate run outputs without path guessing

Source document

The root data directory note remains the authority:
