Research direction

Start with nemo_rl/environments/nemo_gym.py and inspect where GYM_SERVER_TYPE_KEYS is defined and used, keeping the Gym import inside the Gym actor runtime. Check the pinned Gym version for the exported nemo_gym.global_config.SERVER_TYPE_KEYS constant and whether it includes #4768. Done means RL uses that constant and server discovery plus the existing routing tests pass.

Description

bug

Follow-up to review of #4429.

Gym #4768 exports nemo_gym.global_config.SERVER_TYPE_KEYS. RL should use it so server-category discovery stays aligned with the pinned Gym version.

  • Ensure RL’s Gym pin includes #4768 once it is merged.
  • Replace the duplicated GYM_SERVER_TYPE_KEYS in nemo_rl/environments/nemo_gym.py with Gym’s exported constant, keeping the import inside the Gym actor runtime.
  • Verify server discovery and the existing routing tests pass.
