AgentTrove is the largest open-source collection of agentic interaction traces, with 1.7M rows in a ShareGPT-style layout. This hands-on Python tutorial shows how to stream the dataset without full downloads, normalize agent turns, extract commands, analyze trajectories, and export successful traces into a clean SFT fine-tuning dataset.

Hexo Labs released SIA, an open-source self-improving loop, under an MIT license. A Feedback-Agent reads each run's trajectory, then either rewrites the scaffold or triggers a LoRA weight update on gpt-oss-120b. Combining both levers beat scaffold-only iteration on LawBench, TriMul GPU kernels, and scRNA-seq denoising.

In this tutorial, we build a complete Ansible lab that runs end-to-end in Google Colab or any Linux environment. We start by installing ansible-core, setting up a local workspace, creating an Ansible configuration file, and defining both static and dynamic inventories. We then explore key Ansible concepts, including group variables, host variables, variable precedence, ad […]
