# Description

As required by https://github.com/isaac-sim/IsaacLab/pull/2962 and
vulnerabilities in torch 2.5.1, this change updates torch to 2.7.0
during the installation of Isaac Lab.

Although inconsistent with Isaac Sim 4.5 (still on torch 2.5.1), Isaac
Lab should work fine with 2.7.0+cu128. This update will also allow us to
have better support for blackwell GPUs.

# Description
This PR supports enables ManagerBasedRLEnv to properly support
gymnaisum's composite observation gym.spaces.Dict at term-level with
proper min, max specification. The benefit is that this will give
rl-library a clearer signs how to pre-process the obseravtion data.

Before:
All terms are assigned with `gym.Spaces.Box(min=-np.inf, max=np.inf)`,
one problem with this is that from rl-library side, is that some
rl-libraries network construction depends heavily on observations space
details. RL-library (e.g. sb3) looks at `gym.Spaces.Box.min` and
`gym.Spaces.Box.max` to determine if they need to normalize it at
library side.

After:
this PR utilizes on obs_terms's clip to determine if gym.Spaces.Box
should be stricter. For example, environment obs_term returning
gym.Spaces.Box(min=0, max=255) will be automatically detected by sb3,
and a proper scalling be applied automatically. whereas
gym.Spaces.Box(min=-inf, max=inf) will fail.

while no special case is treated for gym.Spaces.Box(min=-1, max=1), but
this will makes the rl-library easy to figure out that this term is
already clipped, not more transformation needed.

This PR fixes shape‑handling bugs in the termination helpers
**`joint_pos_out_of_limit`** and **`joint_pos_out_of_manual_limit`**:

* **Root cause** – both functions reduced across joints with
`torch.any(dim=1)` **before** slicing with `asset_cfg.joint_ids`,
leaving a 1‑D tensor and triggering an `IndexError: too many indices`.
* **Fix** – construct a single `violations` mask, optionally slice
joints, **then** reduce with `torch.any(dim=1)`.
This preserves correct shapes (`[num_envs]`) and works for any
joint‑selection type (`None`, `slice`, list, or tensor).
* **Additional improvements**

* Made `asset_cfg` immutable by avoiding in‑place modification of
`joint_ids`.
  * Added docstring details and harmonised logic between both helpers.

No new dependencies were introduced.

This PR fixes the bug in the test `test_modify_env_param_curr_term`
```
    modify_reset_joint_pos = CurrTerm(
        func=mdp.modify_term_cfg,
        params={
            "address": "events.reset_pole_position.params.position_range", <------
            "modify_fn": replace_value,
            "modify_params": {"value": (-0.0, 0.0), "num_steps": 1},
        },
    )
```

it is trying to modify `events.reset_**pole**_position`

but in the assertion, it is checking `events.reset_**cart**_position`

```
joint_ids = env.event_manager.cfg.reset_cart_position.params["asset_cfg"].joint_ids
assert torch.all(robot.data.joint_pos[:, joint_ids] == 0.0)
```

it wasn't an error before because reset_joints_by_offset function was
buggy, and the tests suite passed before right before that bug was
fixed. Now that bug fixed, we found out this bug.

# Description

This is a follow-up to #1746 by @lukasfro — thanks for the great work
there!

I’ve been using this feature and found it really helpful. Since the only
remaining request was to resolve merge conflicts and the PR has been
quiet for a bit, I went ahead and rebased it on the latest `main` to
help move things forward.

I branched directly off @lukasfro’s [original
branch](https://github.com/lukasfro/IsaacLab/tree/feature/force_matrix_w_history)
to preserve their authorship, and only applied the changes needed to
resolve the conflicts.

Of course, if @lukasfro prefers to continue the original PR, I’m more
than happy to close this. Just hoping to be helpful and support getting
this great addition merged.

All credit for the original work goes to @lukasfro.

Fixes #1720

# Description

This PR created two curriculum mdp that can change any parameter in env
instance.
namely `modify_term_cfg` and `modify_env_param`.

`modify_env_param` is a more general version that can override any value
belongs to env, but requires user to know the full path to the value.

`modify_term_cfg` only work with manager_term, but is a more user
friendly version that simplify path specification, for example, instead
of write "observation_manager.cfg.policy.joint_pos.noise", you instead
write "observations.policy.joint_pos.noise", consistent with hydra
overriding style

Besides path to value is needed, modify_fn, modify_params is also needed
for telling the term how to modify.



Demo 1: difficulty-adaptive modification for all python native data type
```
# iv -> initial value, fv -> final value
def initial_final_interpolate_fn(env: ManagerBasedRLEnv, env_id, data, iv, fv, get_fraction):
    iv_, fv_ = torch.tensor(iv, device=env.device), torch.tensor(fv, device=env.device)
    fraction = eval(get_fraction)
    new_val = fraction * (fv_ - iv_) + iv_
    if isinstance(data, float):
        return new_val.item()
    elif isinstance(data, int):
        return int(new_val.item())
    elif isinstance(data, (tuple, list)):
        raw = new_val.tolist()
        # assume iv is sequence of all ints or all floats:
        is_int = isinstance(iv[0], int)
        casted = [int(x) if is_int else float(x) for x in raw]
        return tuple(casted) if isinstance(data, tuple) else casted
    else:
        raise TypeError(f"Does not support the type {type(data)}")
```
(float)
```
    joint_pos_unoise_min_adr = CurrTerm(
        func=mdp.modify_term_cfg,
        params={
            "address": "observations.policy.joint_pos.noise.n_min",
            "modify_fn": initial_final_interpolate_fn,
            "modify_params": {"iv": 0., "fv": -.1, "get_fraction": "env.command_manager.get_command("difficulty")"}
        }
    )
```

(tuple or list)
```
command_object_pose_xrange_adr = CurrTerm(
        func=mdp.modify_term_cfg,
        params={
            "address": "commands.object_pose.ranges.pos_x",
            "modify_fn": initial_final_interpolate_fn,
            "modify_params": {"iv": (-.5, -.5), "fv": (-.75, -.25), "get_fraction": "env.command_manager.get_command("difficulty")"}
        }
    )
```

Demo 3: overriding entire term on env_step counter rather than adaptive
```
def value_override(env: ManagerBasedRLEnv, env_id, data, new_val, num_steps):
    if env.common_step_counter > num_steps:
        return new_val
    return mdp.modify_term_cfg.NO_CHANGE

object_pos_curriculum = CurrTerm(
        func=mdp.modify_term_cfg,
        params={
            "address": "commands.object_pose",
            "modify_fn": value_override,
            "modify_params": {"new_val": <new_observation_term>, "num_step": 120000 }
        }
    )
```

Demo 4: overriding Tensor field within some arbitary class not visible
from term_cfg
(you can see that 'address' is not as nice as mdp.modify_term_cfg)
```
def resample_bucket_range(env: ManagerBasedRLEnv, env_id, data, static_friction_range, dynamic_friction_range, restitution_range, num_steps):
    if env.common_step_counter > num_steps:
          range_list = [static_friction_range, dynamic_friction_range, restitution_range]
          ranges = torch.tensor(range_list, device="cpu")
          new_buckets = math_utils.sample_uniform(ranges[:, 0], ranges[:, 1], (len(data), 3), device="cpu")
          return new_buckets
    return mdp.modify_env_param.NO_CHANGE

object_physics_material_curriculum = CurrTerm(
        func=mdp.modify_env_param,
        params={
            "address": "event_manager.cfg.object_physics_material.func.material_buckets",
            "modify_fn": resample_bucket_range,
            "modify_params": {"static_friction_range": [.5, 1.], "dynamic_friction_range": [.3, 1.], "restitution_range": [0.0, 0.5], "num_step": 120000 }

Fixes reset_joints_by_scale and reset_joints_by_offsets to only affect the joint_names specified in SceneEntityCfg (#2899)

# Description

Both reset_joints_by_offsets and reset_joints_by_scale ignores the
joint_ids specified in SceneEntityCfg passed through asset_cfg and
affects all joints.

This bug is affecting all cartpole environments. 

After the fix the functions are restricted to only reset the joint
specified through SceneEntityCfg, Cartpole environment runs and reset
behaves correctly

Fixes ObservationManager history buffer corrupted by external calls to ObservationManager.compute (#2885)

# Description

When observation group has history length greater than zero, calling
`ObservationManager.compute` modifies history state by appending current
observation to history. This creates history corruption when
non-`ManagerBasedEnv` classes invoke `ObservationManager.compute`. This
PR introduces `update_history` flag (default to `False`) and only
`ManagerBasedEnv` has the privilege to run `ObservationManager.compute`
with `update_history=True`. If `update_history=False` and the history
buffer is `None`, a copy of history is returned instead of the original.

I have added test cases to verify this fix is effective.

Fixes #2884

Supports sb3 wrapper to pre-process env's image obs-space to trigger sb3 natively supported cnn creation pipeline (#2812)

# Description

This PR modifies the SB3 Wrapper so that it utilizes the 
SB3 natively supported encoder creation on properly defined composite
observation space,

SB3's automatic CNN encoding will apply when
1. if observation space of that term is of shape, GrayScale, RGB, or
RGBD
2. if agent_cfg has normalized flag, expects data to have channel as the
first dimension, and data pre_normalized
3. if agent doesn't has normalized flag, expects data to have space
min=0, max=255, dtype=uint8

This PR makes sure the sb3 wrapper adjust environment image term to meet
either condition 2 or condition 3 by looking at space's min and max, so
sb3 creation pipeline will be applied automatically.

This PR pushes some changes from our internal RAI fork of Isaac Lab.

The 2 main changes are:

#### Adds a new `ray_alignment` parameter to replace the previous
`yaw_only` arg.

Now the ray alignment can be aligned to `world`, `yaw`, or `base.

#### Improves drift height sampling

At the moment, the `RayCasterCfg` hosts a parameter called
`drift_range`. It allows to randomize the position of the sensor in
world frame, which comes with a couple of downsides:
* If the projection is done along the gravity vector, the z-component
drift term cannot be visualized (it is implicitly given in the pose, and
added to the height scan in the observation term).
* The perturbation is applied in world frame, i.e., if the ray cast is
yaw aligned, then the drift varies with the yaw angle
* The drift is applied to all (x,y,z) components equally

This PR adds a new parameter ray_cast_drift_range. It gives more freedom
in choosing the drift ranges as x, y and z components can be treated
separately. It also applies the drift after projecting and rotating the
ray cast points, i.e. the drift is now invariant under the yaw angle and
the drift in z is can be visualized

I've added Fabian Jenelten and Jeonghwan Kim to this PR as they worked
on these changes within RAI - I'm simply helping to push them up 😄

# Description

This PR relaxes the upper range of allowed protobuf versions so that
IsaacLab can be installed in a modern python environment without
downgrading or conflicting with modern protobuf versions.

The original reason for pinning this to <5 was apparently due to
transitive breakage in tensorboard, which also had this pinned to <5 -
so pinning this in IsaacLab itself would not be necessary if both deps
were composed together. Tensorboard has since (in Aug 2024) unpinned
this here: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorboard/pull/6888

So, the original concern should, afaict, be obviated now.

# Fixes

This should repair any case where someone wants to install IsaacLab into
a modern python environment that uses any of the Google ecosystem
(gRPC/protobuf et al) without conflict or forced down-rev'ing to older
versions (current version of protobuf is 6.31.1).

# Description

Currently, `update_class_from_dict()` does not allow updating the
configclass Iterable elements with Hydra, when the provided Iterable
length differs from the default value. Such a feature is nevertheless
needed when changing the network layer depth on the go, e.g., while
using learning libraries that utilize configclass (see #2456 for
details).

This PR modifies `update_class_from_dict()` such that if an element is a
flat Iterable (e.g., flat list), it is replaced wholesale, without
checking the lengths. Moreover, the PR modifies the robustness of the
function against a few edge cases that might break the execution, and
adds comments to make it easier to follow the logic flow.

Note: I left the changelog entry as `[Unreleased]` until a green light
is given.

Fixes #2456.

## Description

Previously, `euler_xyz_from_quat` returned Euler angles in the [0, 2π)
range, which is uncommon in robotics applications. As a result, several
users implemented their own workarounds to adjust the angle range to
(−π, π]. Examples include:

- **Isaac-RL-Two-wheel-Legged-Bot**: Custom unwrapping implemented in
[`rewards.py#L17`](https://github.com/jaykorea/Isaac-RL-Two-wheel-Legged-Bot/blob/057f81ed3aa4aff91551fce5c54256e47cece29a/lab/flamingo/tasks/constraint_based/locomotion/velocity/mdp/rewards.py#L17).
- **lorenzo-bianchi/IsaacLab**: Manual angle shifting in
[`quadcopter_env_v1.py#L219`](https://github.com/lorenzo-bianchi/IsaacLab/blob/247f66db3691046ecdfecb311268eccc729048ec/source/extensions/omni.isaac.lab_tasks/omni/isaac/lab_tasks/direct/quadcopter/quadcopter_env_v1.py#L219).
- **kscalelabs/klab**: Custom angle normalization in
[`imu.py#L17`](https://github.com/kscalelabs/klab/blob/edf749f5177ba296a076d13380cd0fb1e5846e3f/exts/zbot2/zbot2/tasks/locomotion/velocity/mdp/imu.py#L17).

To address this issue, we have updated the default angle range from [0,
2π) to (−π, π] by removing the `% (2 * torch.pi)` operation at the
return statement, since the [atan2
function](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2) naturally outputs angles
within the (−π, π] range.

We also introduced a new parameter, `wrap_to_2pi: bool = False`. Setting
this parameter to `True` will maintain the previous behavior:

- **Default (`wrap_to_2pi=False`)**: Angles returned in the range (−π,
π].
- **Optional (`wrap_to_2pi=True`)**: Angles wrapped in the original [0,
2π) range.


Additionally, multiple test samples have been added to evaluate and
ensure performance and accuracy across different scenarios.

### What’s Changed

- **Default behavior** updated to (−π, π] (non-breaking).  
- **New argument** `wrap_to_2pi` for optional wrapping.  
- **Unit tests** added for both wrapped and unwrapped outputs.
