Build an autonomous agent-led reinforcement learning research workflow using agent skills that leverage NVIDIA NeMo RL, NeMo Gym and Brev. This tutorial shows how Codex can configure a GPU environment, run experiments and track results using reusable agent skills for Brev etiquette, session memory, and autoresearch.
This workflow covers two examples:
1. Visual counting with RL: Create a visual star-count environment for Qwen3-VL-2B-Instruct, scale training, and improve reported accuracy from 25.0% to 96.875%.
2. Paper-to-code validation: Demonstrate how an agent can help translate a research paper into code and start validation training, while the researcher remains responsible for goals, budgets, and final judgment.
