Research Repo Reproduction

Reproduction means a faithful, documented attempt to run or inspect the research artifact. It does not mean changing anything until the result looks good.

Trusted Reproduction Flow

1. Read README, configs, environment files, scripts, and docs.
2. Inventory documented commands.
3. Identify the smallest trustworthy target: smoke test, inference, evaluation, or training startup.
4. Record assumptions about data, weights, environment, and hardware.
5. Run only documented or clearly justified commands.
6. If patching is required, isolate patch notes from scientific contribution claims.
7. Write standardized evidence under repro_outputs/.
