Add verifiers integration for rollout environments#28
Conversation
Add chatan.integrations module with verifiers support: - RolloutGenerator wraps verifiers Environment as a chatan generator - RolloutGeneratorClient factory creates generator functions - rollout_generator() convenience function for creating clients - Support for extracting completion, reward, metrics, trajectory, or full output - Retry logic with exponential backoff via tenacity https://claude.ai/code/session_01LzcU7VdTL3HjndER1qTR2F

Overall AssessmentRating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½ (4.5/5) This is a solid, well-designed integration that fits naturally into the chatan ecosystem. The code quality is high, the API is intuitive, and the test coverage is comprehensive. The main issues are minor (type annotations) and one medium-priority bug (race condition) that should be addressed before merge. The integration adds valuable functionality and maintains the high quality standards of the project. Great work! 🎉 Reviewed by: Claude Code |
Remove conditional import checks - just import verifiers directly. Users who want to use the integration need verifiers installed. Update integrations __init__ to not auto-import verifiers module. https://claude.ai/code/session_01LzcU7VdTL3HjndER1qTR2F
Pull Request Review: Add verifiers integration for rollout environmentsSummaryThis PR adds a new integration module for the verifiers library, enabling users to wrap verifiers rollout environments as chatan generators. The implementation is well-structured and follows good patterns. Code Quality & Best PracticesStrengths
Issues & Recommendations1. Type Compatibility Issue (CRITICAL)Line 109: The answer parameter uses 'str | None' syntax (PEP 604), but pyproject.toml specifies Python >=3.8. This syntax only works on Python 3.10+. Should use Optional[str] instead. Also need to import Optional from typing. 2. Inconsistent max_retries Usage (CRITICAL)Line 53: The retry decorator is hardcoded to 3 attempts, but init accepts a max_retries parameter. The decorator should use the instance variable. 3. Thread-Safety Concern (IMPORTANT)Lines 33,47: _row_counter is incremented without locking. In async concurrent scenarios, this could cause race conditions. Consider using asyncio.Lock. 4. Missing Error Handling (IMPORTANT)Lines 35-51: The generate() method doesn't handle exceptions from the environment or extraction logic. 5. Missing all ExportLine 7: The all list is empty, but rollout_generator should probably be exportable. Test CoverageStrengths: Good coverage of extraction modes, answer passing, and dataset integration. Missing: Error handling tests, retry logic tests, concurrent access tests, empty/malformed result tests. DocumentationGood: Clear examples and docstrings. Suggestions: Add note in README.md, add verifiers to optional dependencies in pyproject.toml. Overall AssessmentThis is a solid implementation. Main issues: Critical (Must Fix):
Important (Should Fix):
Nice to Have:
The code is clean and integrates nicely with the existing architecture. With the critical fixes above, this would be ready to merge. Great work overall! |
When sampling multiple columns from the same dataset, sample.row()
ensures all columns come from the same row instead of being
randomly mismatched.
Usage:
row = sample.row(dataset)
ds = dataset({
"question": row["question"],
"answer": row["answer"],
})

Multiple rollout() calls with different extract types now share the
same underlying API call. The RolloutGeneratorClient maintains a
shared cache keyed by row context, so:
rollout("{q}", extract="completion")
rollout("{q}", extract="trajectory")
rollout("{q}", extract="reward")
All return data from a single rollout per row instead of 3 separate calls.
