+2. Register in the core registry
 3. Add schema parser if needed
 4. Add tests for encode/decode consistency
 
 ### New File Format
 
-1. Implement `BagSource` for reading in `robocodec/src/io/formats/`
-2. Implement `BagWriter` for writing in `robocodec/src/io/writer/`
-3. Add format detection in `robocodec/src/io/detection.rs`
+1. Implement reader for the format
+2. Implement writer for the format

+2. Update root `Cargo.toml` with the binary name
 3. Add help documentation and examples
 
-### Python Bindings
-
-When adding Rust APIs that should be exposed to Python:
-
-1. Add `#[pyfunction]` or `#[pymethods]` attributes in `roboflow/src/python/`
-2. Register in `roboflow/src/python/mod.rs`
-3. Add type stubs to `python/roboflow/` if needed
-4. Rebuild with `maturin develop --features python`
-
 ## Testing Guidelines
 
 - **Unit tests**: Test individual functions and modules
 - **Integration tests**: Test end-to-end functionality
 - **Round-trip tests**: Verify encode/decode consistency

-### 添加功能
-
-1. **新的编解码器支持**：添加到 `src/codec/` 并更新 `src/core/registry.rs`
-2. **新的文件格式**：添加到 `src/format/`，实现 Reader/Writer 接口
-3. **新的模式格式**：将解析器添加到 `src/schema/`
-4. **CLI 工具**：添加二进制文件到 `src/bin/` 并更新 Cargo.toml
+**说明**：项目使用外部 `robocodec` 库进行 I/O 操作和格式处理。
 
-### Python 绑定
-
-Python 绑定通过 PyO3 管理。当添加需要暴露给 Python 的 Rust API 时：
+### 添加功能
 
-1. 添加 `#[pyfunction]` 或 `#[pymethods]` 属性
-2. 在 `src/python/mod.rs` 中注册
-3. 如需要，在 `python/robocodec/` 中添加类型存根
-4. 更新 Python 文档
+1. **新的编解码器支持**：在 `robocodec` 库中实现并更新注册表
+2. **新的文件格式**：实现 Reader/Writer 接口
+3. **新的模式格式**：将解析器添加到 schema 模块
+4. **CLI 工具**：添加二进制文件到 `crates/roboflow/src/bin/` 并更新 Cargo.toml
 
 ### 测试指南
 
 - **单元测试**：测试单个函数和模块
 - **集成测试**：测试端到端功能
 - **往返测试**：验证编解码一致性
-- **跨语言测试**：验证 Rust 和 Python API 的对等性

+# Image Decoding Architecture
+
+## Overview
+
+This document describes the **Clean Architecture** for JPEG/PNG image decoding in the roboflow distributed system. The design follows established patterns from `roboflow-pipeline/gpu/` and integrates with the distributed worker infrastructure.
+
+## Design Principles
+
+1. **Trait-based abstraction** - `ImageDecoderBackend` trait for pluggable implementations
+2. **Factory pattern** - `ImageDecoderFactory` for auto-detection and fallback
+3. **Platform-specific compilation** - CPU/GPU/Apple backends with stubs
+4. **GPU-friendly memory** - Pinned allocation for efficient CPU→GPU transfers
+5. **Distributed integration** - Worker-level decoder pooling for horizontal scaling
+

+## TODOs for Future Optimization
+
+### Phase 1: CPU Decoding (Current)
+- [x] Basic JPEG/PNG CPU decoding
+- [x] Page-aligned memory allocation
+- [x] Factory pattern with auto-fallback
+
+### Phase 2: GPU Decoding (Next)
+- [ ] NVIDIA nvJPEG integration for JPEG
+- [ ] CUDA pinned memory allocation
+- [ ] Batch decoding optimization
+- [ ] GPU memory pooling
+
+### Phase 3: Advanced Features (Future)
+- [ ] cuVID for hardware video decode (H.264/H.265 compressed images)
+- [ ] Direct GPU-to-GPU pipeline (decode on GPU, encode on GPU)
+- [ ] Distributed decoder pool (shared GPU across workers)
+- [ ] Zero-copy integration with NVENC
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Tests
+- Format detection from magic bytes
+- Dimension extraction from headers
+- CPU decoder (JPEG/PNG)
+- Memory allocation strategies
+- Error handling and fallback
+
+### Integration Tests
+- End-to-end: MCAP → Decoded RGB → MP4
+- GPU availability detection
+- Auto-fallback behavior
+- Distributed worker integration
+
+### Benchmarks
+- CPU vs GPU decode throughput
+- Memory allocation strategies
+- Batch vs sequential decoding
+- NVENC encoding with decoded RGB (vs compressed)
+

+//!
+//! # Platform Support
+//!
+//! - Linux x86_64/aarch64 with CUDA toolkit
+//! - Requires NVIDIA GPU with compute capability 6.0+
+//! - Falls back to CPU decoder on error or for unsupported formats
+//!
+//! # Implementation Status
+//!
+//! GPU decoding is a planned enhancement. The stub implementation provides:
+//! - Type definitions for future integration with cudarc crate
+//! - Interface compatibility with existing decoder traits
+//! - Clear error messages when GPU decoding is attempted
+//!
+//! Full implementation will require:
+//! - cudarc dependency integration
+//! - CUDA context initialization
+//! - nvJPEG handle creation and management
+//! - Batch decoding optimization for multiple images

+//! Image decoding support for compressed image formats.
+//!
+//! This module provides decoding capabilities for compressed image formats
+//! commonly found in robotics datasets (JPEG, PNG) with GPU acceleration support.
+//!
+//! # Architecture
+//!
+//! The decoding system is organized into several components:
+//!
+//! - **[`format`]: Format detection from magic bytes and ROS strings
+//! - **[`backend`]: `ImageDecoderBackend` trait with CPU/GPU/Apple implementations
+//! - **[`config`]: Decoder configuration with builder pattern
+//! - **[`factory`]: Auto-detection and fallback management
+//! - **[`memory`]: GPU-friendly memory allocation strategies
+//! - **[`gpu`]: NVIDIA nvJPEG decoder (Linux only, feature-gated)
+//! - **[`apple`]: Apple hardware-accelerated decoder (macOS only, feature-gated)
+//!
+//! # Feature Flags
+//!
+//! - `image-decode`: Enables CPU-based JPEG/PNG decoding (always available)
+//! - `gpu-decode`: Enables GPU decoding (Linux only, requires CUDA)
+//!
+//! # Usage
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! use roboflow_dataset::image::{ImageDecoderFactory, ImageDecoderConfig};
+//!
+//! let config = ImageDecoderConfig::max_throughput();
+//! let mut factory = ImageDecoderFactory::new(&config);
+//!
+//! let decoder = factory.get_decoder();
+//! let rgb_image = decoder.decode(&jpeg_bytes, ImageFormat::Jpeg)?;
+//! ```
+//!
+//! # Integration with Streaming Converter
+//!
+//! The image decoder integrates with the streaming converter via
+//! `FrameAlignmentBuffer`. When `CompressedImage` messages are received,
+//! they are automatically decoded to RGB before being passed to the writer.
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! let config = StreamingConfig::with_fps(30)
+//!     .with_decoder_config(ImageDecoderConfig::max_throughput());
+//!
+//! let converter = StreamingDatasetConverter::new_lerobot(output_dir, lerobot_config)
+//!     .with_decoder_config(decoder_config)?;

+//! Batch job processing module.
+//!
+//! This module provides a Kubernetes-inspired declarative batch system for
+//! processing large numbers of files (10,000+) in a distributed manner.
+//!
+//! ## Architecture
+//!
+//! The batch system follows a declarative pattern where users submit a
+//! `BatchSpec` (desired state) and a controller reconciles the actual state
+//! to match:
+//!
+//! 1. **BatchSpec** - User's desired state (YAML/JSON)
+//! 2. **BatchStatus** - Current actual state with phases
+//! 3. **WorkUnit** - Individual work items claimed by workers
+//! 4. **Controller** - Reconciliation loop that drives progress
+//!
+//! ## Phases
+//!
+//! - `Pending` - Initial state, validation
+//! - `Discovering` - Scanning storage for files
+//! - `Running` - Workers processing work units
+//! - `Complete` - All work units finished successfully
+//! - `Failed` - Backoff limit exceeded
+//! - `Cancelled` - User cancelled the job
+//!
+//! ## Example
+//!
+//! ```yaml
+//! # batch.yaml
+//! apiVersion: roboflow/v1
+//! kind: BatchJob
+//! metadata:
+//!   name: "bag-conversion-20250130"
+//! spec:
+//!   sources:
+//!     - url: "s3://bucket/path/*.bag"
+//!   output: "s3://bucket/output/"
+//!   config: "default"
+//!   parallelism: 100
+//!   backoffLimit: 10
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ```bash
+//! # Submit batch
+//! roboflow batch submit batch.yaml
+//!
+//! # Check status
+//! roboflow batch status <batch-id>
+//! ```

+//! Staging + Merge coordination for distributed dataset conversion.
+//!
+//! This module implements the merge coordination pattern for horizontally scalable
+//! dataset conversion:
+//!
+//! # Architecture
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! Workers → Staging Area → Merge Coordinator → Final Dataset
+//!          (job-scoped)      (sequential episode_index)
+//! ```
+//!
+//! ## Staging Phase
+//!
+//! - Each worker writes to its own staging path: `staging/{job_id}/`
+//! - No coordination required during processing
+//! - Multiple workers can process different input files in parallel
+//!
+//! ## Merge Phase
+//!
+//! - When all workers for a job are complete, merge coordinator:
+//!   1. Reads all staged parquet files
+//!   2. Rewrites episode_index column to be sequential
+//!   3. Writes to final location with proper LeRobot v2.1 format
+//!
+//! ## Key Format
+//!
+//! - Merge state: `/roboflow/v1/merge/{job_id}`
+//! - Merge locks: `/roboflow/v1/locks/merge/{job_id}`

+//! Zombie reaper for reclaiming work units from dead workers.
 //!
 //! The zombie reaper periodically scans for:
 //! - Stale heartbeats (workers that haven't sent a heartbeat recently)
-//! - Orphaned jobs (jobs in Processing state owned by stale workers)
+//! - Orphaned work units (work units in Processing state owned by stale workers)
 //!
-//! When orphaned jobs are found, they are reclaimed by:
-//! - Verifying the job is still in Processing state
+//! When orphaned work units are found, they are reclaimed by:
+//! - Verifying the work unit is still in Processing state
 //! - Verifying the owner's heartbeat is stale
-//! - Setting the job back to Pending status with no owner
-//! - Preserving the checkpoint for resume capability
+//! - Setting the work unit back to Failed status with no owner
+//!   (Failed status allows retry via the controller's pending queue)
 //!
 //! ## Design
 //!
 //! The reaper runs on ALL workers (no leader election) to maximize
 //! fault tolerance. Multiple workers may attempt to reclaim the same
-//! job, but TiKV's optimistic concurrency ensures only one succeeds.
+//! work unit, but TiKV's optimistic concurrency ensures only one succeeds.

 //! To prevent thundering herd, the reaper limits reclamations per

-//! Scanner actor for discovering new files in storage and creating jobs.

 //! The scanner uses leader election to ensure only one instance is active

 //! # Architecture
 //!
 //! - **Leader Election**: Only the leader performs scans
-//! - **File Discovery**: Lists objects in S3/OSS with optional glob filtering
-//! - **Duplicate Detection**: Batch check existing jobs in TiKV
-//! - **Job Creation**: Insert jobs for new files
+//! - **Batch Processing**: Queries Pending batches from TiKV
+//! - **File Discovery**: For each batch, scans the source URLs in S3/OSS

-//! Circuit breaker pattern for TiKV fault tolerance.
-//!
-//! The circuit breaker prevents cascading failures by failing fast when
-//! the TiKV service is experiencing issues. It has three states:
-//!
-//! - **Closed**: Normal operation, requests pass through
-//! - **Open**: Service is down, requests fail immediately
-//! - **Half-Open**: Testing if service has recovered (limited requests allowed)
-//!
-//! ## State Transitions
-//!
-//! ```text
-//!                    failure threshold reached
-//!     Closed  ----------------------------->  Open
-//!        ^                                      |
-//!        |                                      | timeout expires
-//!        |                                      v
-//!        |<--------------------------- Half-Open
-//!        |                                   |
-//!        | success (after attempts)           | failure
-//!        +-----------------------------------+
-//! ```
-//!
-//! ## Usage
-//!
-//! ```rust
-//! use distributed::tikv::circuit::{CircuitBreaker, CircuitConfig};
-//!
-//! let config = CircuitConfig::default();
-//! let breaker = CircuitBreaker::new(config);
-//!
-//! // Execute operation with circuit breaker protection
-//! match breaker.call(|| async {
-//!     // Your TiKV operation here
-//!     Ok::<(), TikvError>(())
-//! }).await {
-//!     Ok(_) => println!("Operation succeeded"),
-//!     Err(TikvError::CircuitOpen) => println!("Circuit is open, failing fast"),
-//!     Err(e) => println!("Operation failed: {}", e),
-//! }

-//! TiKV client wrapper for distributed coordination.
-//!
-//! Provides connection pooling and basic CRUD operations for TiKV.
-//!
-//! # Atomicity Guarantees
-//!
-//! This client uses TiKV's optimistic transactions. Each CRUD operation
-//! (`get`, `put`, `delete`, `scan`) executes in its own transaction.
-//!
-//! High-level operations like `claim_job`, `acquire_lock`, `release_lock`,
-//! `complete_job`, `fail_job`, and `cas` all use **single transactions**
-//! for both read and write, providing atomicity. If two workers race to
-//! perform conflicting operations, TiKV's optimistic concurrency control
-//! will detect the conflict and one transaction will fail with a write
-//! conflict error.
-//!
-//! # Retry Behavior
-//!
-//! Write conflicts are automatically retried with exponential backoff.
-//! The `max_retries` and `retry_base_delay_ms` configuration values control
-//! retry behavior. If all retries are exhausted, a `Retryable` error is
-//! returned.
-//!
-//! # Scan Behavior
-//!
-//! The `scan` method returns keys in lexicographic order. Use the
-//! `KeyBuilder` or `*Keys` types to construct proper prefix-based keys.

-//! Worker actor for claiming and processing jobs from TiKV queue.
-//!
-//! The worker implements a distributed job processing model:
-//! - Claims jobs using optimistic concurrency (CAS in TiKV)
-//! - Processes jobs with checkpoint support
-//! - Updates job status (Complete/Failed) based on results
-//! - Sends heartbeats to indicate liveness
-//!
-//! # Architecture
-//!
-//! - **Job Claiming**: Query pending jobs → CAS claim → Process → Complete/Fail
-//! - **Concurrency**: Multiple workers run in parallel, each claims different jobs
-//! - **Checkpoints**: Frame-level progress tracking for resume capability
-//! - **Heartbeats**: Regular liveness signals with status
-//!
-//! # Example
-//!
-//! ```ignore
-//! use roboflow_distributed::{Worker, WorkerConfig};
-//! use std::sync::Arc;
-//!
-//! #[tokio::main]
-//! async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
-//!     let tikv = Arc::new(TikvClient::from_env().await?);
-//!     let storage = Arc::new(StorageFactory::create_from_url("s3://bucket")?);
-//!     let config = WorkerConfig::default();
-//!
-//!     let mut worker = Worker::new(
-//!         "worker-1",
-//!         tikv,
-//!         storage,
-//!         config,
-//!     )?;
-//!
-//!     // Run until shutdown signal
-//!     worker.run().await?;
-//!

-/// # Architecture
-///
-/// This implements a **batch cancellation monitoring** pattern that addresses
-/// the scalability issues of per-job monitoring:
-///
-/// - **Before (Per-Job Monitoring)**: Each job spawned a monitor task → O(n) tasks
-/// - **After (Batch Monitoring)**: Single monitor per worker → O(1) task
-///
-/// # Performance Impact
-///
-/// For 1000 concurrent jobs:
-/// - Per-job: 1000 monitor tasks × 5s interval = 200 QPS to TiKV
-/// - Batch: 1 monitor task × 5s interval = 0.2 QPS to TiKV (1000× reduction)
-///
-/// # Extension Points
-///
-/// To implement alternative monitoring strategies (e.g., push-based notifications),
-/// the JobRegistry can be extended to:
-/// - Support different backends (in-memory, Redis, etc.)
-/// - Implement different polling strategies
-/// - Add event-driven notification mechanisms
-///
-/// The current implementation prioritizes simplicity and immediate scalability
-/// improvements over full abstraction.

+use std::collections::HashMap;

+
+/// Registry for tracking active jobs and their cancellation tokens.
+///
+/// # Architecture
+///
+/// This implements a **batch cancellation monitoring** pattern that addresses
+/// the scalability issues of per-job monitoring:
+///
+/// - **Before (Per-Job Monitoring)**: Each job spawned a monitor task → O(n) tasks
+/// - **After (Batch Monitoring)**: Single monitor per worker → O(1) task
+///
+/// # Performance Impact
+///
+/// For 1000 concurrent jobs:
+/// - Per-job: 1000 monitor tasks × 5s interval = 200 QPS to TiKV
+/// - Batch: 1 monitor task × 5s interval = 0.2 QPS to TiKV (1000× reduction)
+///
+/// # Extension Points
+///
+/// To implement alternative monitoring strategies (e.g., push-based notifications),
+/// the JobRegistry can be extended to:
+/// - Support different backends (in-memory, Redis, etc.)
+/// - Implement different polling strategies
+/// - Add event-driven notification mechanisms
+///
+/// The current implementation prioritizes simplicity and immediate scalability
+/// improvements over full abstraction.

+///
+/// **Note**: In async contexts (workers, scanners), prefer using `AsyncOssStorage`
+/// directly to avoid any blocking overhead.

-# Python Examples
-
-Examples demonstrating how to use the roboflow Python bindings for robotics data conversion.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-```bash
-# Build the Python extension
-cd /path/to/roboflow
-maturin develop --features python
-
-# Or use make
-make build-python-dev
-```
-
-## Examples
-
-| File | Description |
-|------|-------------|
-| `basic_conversion.py` | Convert a single file between formats |
-| `batch_conversion.py` | Process multiple files at once |
-| `transforms.py` | Rename topics and types during conversion |
-| `complete_workflow.py` | End-to-end dataset processing workflow |
-| `roboflow_utils.py` | Utility functions for common operations |
-| `kps/` | **KPS dataset conversion package** |
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### Single File Conversion
-
-```bash
-python examples/python/basic_conversion.py input.bag output.mcap
-```
-
-### Batch Conversion
-
-```bash
-python examples/python/batch_conversion.py ./bags ./mcaps --hyper
-```
-
-### Using Transforms
-
-```bash
-python examples/python/transforms.py input.mcap output.mcap multiple
-```
-
-### Complete Workflow
-
-```bash
-# Full workflow: discover → convert → export annotations → create splits
-python examples/python/complete_workflow.py ./raw_data ./processed
-```
-
-## KPS Dataset Conversion
-
-The `kps/` subdirectory contains a full Python implementation for converting robotics data to KPS dataset format with annotation sidecar files.
-
-### KPS Quick Start
-
-```bash
-# Convert a single episode
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py episode_001.mcap ./output
-
-# Convert a dataset directory
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py ./data ./kps_output config.toml
-
-# Generate templates
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py --generate-config ./kps_config.toml
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py --generate-task-info ./task_info.json
-```
-
-### KPS Directory Structure
-
-```
-data/
-├── episode_001/
-│   ├── episode_001.mcap          # Robotics data
-│   └── episode_001.json          # Annotations
-├── episode_002/
-│   ├── episode_002.mcap
-│   └── episode_002.json
-```
-
-See [kps/README.md](kps/README.md) for full KPS documentation.
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Basic Conversion
-
-```python
-import roboflow
-
-result = (
-    roboflow.Roboflow.open(["input.bag"])
-    .write_to("output.mcap")
-    .run()
-)
-```
-
-### With Transforms
-
-```python
-builder = roboflow.TransformBuilder()
-builder = builder.with_topic_rename("/old", "/new")
-transform_id = builder.build()
-
-result = (
-    roboflow.Roboflow.open(["input.bag"])
-    .transform(transform_id)
-    .write_to("output.mcap")
-    .run()
-)
-```
-
-### Hyper Mode (Maximum Throughput)
-
-```python
-result = (
-    roboflow.Roboflow.open(["input.mcap"])
-    .write_to("output.bag")
-    .hyper_mode()
-    .run()
-)
-```
-
-### Batch Processing
-
-```python
-# Multiple files are processed in parallel
-result = (
-    roboflow.Roboflow.open(["ep1.mcap", "ep2.mcap", "ep3.mcap"])
-    .write_to("./output")
-    .run()
-)
-```

-# KPS Dataset Conversion (Python)
-
-Full Python implementation for converting robotics data (MCAP/BAG) to KPS dataset format with annotation sidecar files.
-
-## Overview
-
-KPS (Keyframe-and-Propagation-based-Sampler) is a dataset format used for robotics learning. See: https://github.com/huggingface/kps
-
-This package provides:
-- **Config module** - Load and manage KPS conversion configuration
-- **Reader module** - Read MCAP/BAG files
-- **Writer module** - Write KPS HDF5 files and directory structure
-- **Converter module** - High-level conversion interface
-- **CLI module** - Command-line interface
-
-## Installation
-
-```bash
-# Build roboflow with Python bindings
-cd /path/to/roboflow
-maturin develop --features python
-
-# Install additional dependencies
-pip install h5py tomli tomli-w
-```
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### Command Line
-
-```bash
-# Convert a single episode
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py episode_001.mcap ./output
-
-# Convert a dataset directory
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py ./data ./kps_output config.toml
-
-# Generate templates
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py --generate-config ./kps_config.toml
-python examples/python/kps/kps_conversion.py --generate-task-info ./task_info.json
-```
-
-### Python API
-
-```python
-from examples.python.kps import (
-    load_config,
-    KpsConverter
-)
-
-# Load configuration
-config = load_config("kps_config.toml")
-
-# Create converter
-converter = KpsConverter(config, use_cli=True)
-
-# Convert episode
-result = converter.convert_episode(
-    mcap_path="episode_001.mcap",
-    output_dir="./output",
-    task_info={"episode_id": "001", "english_task_name": "Pick and Place", ...}
-)
-```
-
-## Directory Structure
-
-### Input Structure
-
-The converter expects robotics data with annotation sidecar files:
-
-```
-data/
-├── episode_001/
-│   ├── episode_001.mcap          # Robotics data
-│   ├── episode_001.json          # Annotations
-│   └── episode_001_config.toml   # Optional per-episode config
-├── episode_002/
-│   ├── episode_002.mcap
-│   └── episode_002.json
-└── ...
-```
-
-### Output Structure
-
-The converter creates KPS v1.2 compliant output:
-
-```
-output/
-└── <Scene>/
-    └── <SubScene>/
-        └── <Task>-<size>_<counts>_<duration>/
-            └── <UUID>/
-                ├── camera/
-                │   ├── video/
-                │   └── depth/
-                │   ├── parameters/
-                │   │   ├── hand_right_intrinsic_params.json
-                │   │   └── hand_right_extrinsic_params.json
-                ├── proprio_stats/
-                │   ├── proprio_stats.hdf5
-                │   └── proprio_stats_original.hdf5
-                ├── audio/
-                └── task_info.json
-```
-
-## Configuration
-
-The `kps_config.toml` file defines topic mappings:
-
-```toml
-[dataset]
-name = "robot_dataset"
-fps = 30
-robot_type = "custom_robot"
-
-[output]
-formats = ["hdf5"]
-image_format = "raw"
-
-# Camera topics
-[[mappings]]
-topic = "/camera/hand/right/color"
-feature = "observation.camera_hand_right"
-type = "image"
-
-# Joint states
-[[mappings]]
-topic = "/joint_states"
-feature = "observation.joint_position"
-type = "state"
-
-[[mappings]]
-topic = "/joint_states"
-feature = "observation.joint_velocity"
-type = "state"
-field = "velocity"
-
-# Actions
-[[mappings]]
-topic = "/command/joint_states"
-feature = "action.joint_position"
-type = "action"
-```
-
-## Task Info Format
-
-Annotation files (`task_info.json`) should contain:
-
-```json
-{
-  "episode_id": "001",
-  "scene_name": "Kitchen",
-  "sub_scene_name": "Counter",
-  "english_task_name": "Pick and Place",
-  "english_task_description": "Pick up an object and place it elsewhere.",
-  "language": "en",
-  "label_info": {
-    "action_config": [
-      {
-        "start_frame": 0,
-        "end_frame": 100,
-        "action_id": "pick_up",
-        "action_name": "Pick Up Object"
-      }
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Modules
-
-### `config.py`
-
-```python
-from kps import load_config, KpsConfig
-
-config = load_config("kps_config.toml")
-print(f"Dataset: {config.dataset.name}")
-print(f"FPS: {config.dataset.fps}")
-print(f"Mappings: {len(config.mappings)}")
-```
-
-### `reader.py`
-
-```python
-from kps import McapReader
-
-reader = McapReader("episode_001.mcap")
-reader.open()
-
-print(f"Channels: {list(reader.channels.keys())}")
-print(f"Messages: {reader.message_count}")
-
-for msg in reader.iter_messages(topics=["/joint_states"]):
-    print(f"Topic: {msg.topic}, Timestamp: {msg.timestamp_ns}")
-```
-
-### `writer.py`
-
-```python
-from kps import KpsWriter, create_kps_structure, write_task_info
-
-# Create directory structure
-episode_dir = create_kps_structure(
-    output_dir=Path("./output"),
-    scene_name="Kitchen",
-    sub_scene_name="Counter",
-    task_name="Pick and Place",
-    episode_id="001"
-)
-
-# Write HDF5 data
-writer = KpsWriter(episode_dir)
-writer.add_timestamp(1234567890)
-writer.add_data("state/joint/position", [1.0, 2.0, 3.0])
-writer.finalize()
-```
-
-### `converter.py`
-
-```python
-from kps import KpsConverter, convert_single, convert_dataset
-
-# High-level conversion
-result = convert_single(
-    mcap_path="episode_001.mcap",
-    output_dir="./output",
-    config_path="kps_config.toml"
-)
-
-# Or use the converter class
-converter = KpsConverter(config)
-result = converter.convert_episode(...)
-```
