Check before publication

The paper is under review and the citation metadata may change. Copy the current entry from the main HiveBoard repository when preparing a manuscript.

Report the benchmark version

Alongside the citation, identify the release or commit used for:

• printed parts;
• evaluation protocol;
• simulation assets; and
• Isaac Lab integration, when applicable.

This makes later replication possible even if the benchmark evolves.
