"""Build the single self-updating SAC training dashboard.
Pure-stdlib SVG output (matplotlib not available on this box).
Generates ONE file:
docs/campaign_dashboard.svg - four panels, current (v2) run only:
1. test-match win % vs opponents (campaign_v4_stdout.log eval lines)
2. critic_loss / |actor_loss| (training_metrics.jsonl, shared log-y)
3. alpha temperature (training_metrics.jsonl, linear)
4. throughput, games/hour buckets (training_metrics.jsonl 'epoch' deltas;
1 metrics row == one 10-game chunk,
counts match stdout chunk markers)
plus an embedded JS snippet that reloads the page every 60 s when the SVG is
opened as a top-level document in Chrome.
Usage:
python3 tools/plot_progress.py [campaign_log] [metrics_jsonl] [outdir]
All args optional; defaults relative to the SAC_LSTM_Bot/ root (parent of tools/).
python3 tools/plot_progress.py --selftest # tiny built-in sanity check
