solo robo --type lerobot --record

Interactive flow

  • Reuse saved Recording settings or enter new ones.
  • Confirm robot_type, leader_port, follower_port, and IDs, then set up cameras.
  • Choose whether to push to HuggingFace Hub; if yes, you will be prompted to authenticate.
  • Enter dataset repository name; if it already exists, choose whether to resume or rename.
  • Enter task description, episode duration, and number of episodes.
  • Recording starts and follows LeRobot’s standard UI/controls.

Tips/Notes

  • Use local/<name> or a bare <name> to keep datasets local; pushing to Hub is optional.
  • Controls during recording:
    • Right Arrow (→): early stop/reset and move to next
    • Left Arrow (←): cancel current episode and re-record
    • Escape (ESC): stop session, encode videos, and upload (if enabled)
  • If ports change mid-session, the tool can detect new ports and retry once.
