Brain
Hugging Face's open-source robot-learning framework. LeRobot is a framework, not a brain that powers robots directly: it HOSTS other models (pi0, pi0.5, GR00T N1.5) and provides datasets, simulation environments, training tooling, and a multi-GPU + plugin runtime. v0.4.0 added Datasets v3.0, LIBERO and Meta-World simulators, and the Robot Learning Course.

Architecture
Open-source robot-learning framework. Library-style hosting of VLA models (pi0, pi0.5, GR00T N1.5) plus datasets, simulation environments (LIBERO, Meta-World), training tooling, multi-GPU support, plugin system. Released v0.4.0 with the upgrades above.
Key facts
- Verified-vs-claimed clarification
- LeRobot is a FRAMEWORK that hosts VLA models. It does not power robots directly. Use the Hosts relation, not Powers.
- Position in the ecosystem
- De facto open hub for robotics foundation models on the Hugging Face platform
- Educational layer
- Includes Robot Learning Course; explicit developer-onboarding mission
- Source-list correction
- The source list's '6 robots' figure conflated framework with hosted models; the framework itself is the entity here

Hosts (2)
This brain is a framework that hosts other brains. Hosting means the host brain provides the runtime and tooling for the hosted brain to operate on supported robot platforms.
