# PufferLib - High-Performance Reinforcement Learning ## Overview PufferLib is a high-performance reinforcement learning library designed for fast parallel environment simulation and training. It achieves training at millions of steps per second through optimized vectorization, native multi-agent support, and efficient PPO implementation (PuffeRL). The library provides the Ocean suite of 20+ environments and seamless integration with Gymnasium, PettingZoo, and specialized RL frameworks. ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill when: - **Training RL agents** with PPO on any environment (single or multi-agent) - **Creating custom environments** using the PufferEnv API - **Optimizing performance** for parallel environment simulation (vectorization) - **Integrating existing environments** from Gymnasium, PettingZoo, Atari, Procgen, etc. - **Developing policies** with CNN, LSTM, or custom architectures - **Scaling RL** to millions of steps per second for faster experimentation - **Multi-agent RL** with native multi-agent environment support ## Core Capabilities ### 1. High-Performance Training (PuffeRL) PuffeRL is PufferLib's optimized PPO+LSTM training algorithm achieving 1M-4M steps/second. **Quick start training:** ```bash # CLI training puffer train procgen-coinrun --train.device cuda --train.learning-rate 3e-4 # Distributed training torchrun --nproc_per_node=4 train.py ``` **Python training loop:** ```python import pufferlib from pufferlib import PuffeRL # Create v
