Robot Dataset License and Provenance Checklist

Record source identity, access terms, format evidence, and unresolved license questions before adopting a robot dataset.

Run the check

openbot-data audit hf://datasets/org/name@revision \
  --format lerobot \
  --integrity metadata \
  --out ./source.audit.json

Machine-readable output: source.audit.json (`openbot.dataset_audit.v1`)

What this proves

Which explicit source locator and revision were presented to the audit.
Which metadata and format checks ran without downloading the full payload.
Which access, provenance, or schema facts still require human review.

What it does not prove

That OpenBot or the tool has given legal advice.
That a repository label covers every upstream asset, subject, or downstream use.
That metadata-only integrity verifies media payloads or training compatibility.

Decision checklist

01Pin an immutable revision rather than relying on a moving branch when possible.
02Save the exact license text or official terms that applied at review time.
03Separate repository access from rights covering media, annotations, people, and derived artifacts.
04Escalate ambiguous commercial-use, redistribution, privacy, or subject-consent terms to counsel.
