# Artifact Guide

This guide is the human-readable map for the public Ropedia Xperience-10M task
suite artifacts. It is organized around what a reader usually wants to do:
understand the project, inspect the sample episode, compare baselines, read the
task results, follow the Qwen3-Omni scale-up path, and understand the longer
Xperience-native pretraining goal.

## What Is Not Included

The public repo and Hugging Face mirrors do not redistribute raw Xperience-10M
videos, raw `annotation.hdf5`, gated private dataset files, full Qwen weights,
or large full checkpoints. Dataset use remains governed by the official
Ropedia/Xperience-10M terms.
