plot_training.py — Training Visualization Dashboard
Reads train_log.jsonl and renders a clean, dark-mode training dashboard.
Usage:
# Static plot of completed/current run
python plot_training.py --run_dir runs/run_001
# Live mode: refresh every 5 seconds while training runs
python plot_training.py --run_dir runs/run_001 --live
# Compare multiple runs
python plot_training.py --run_dir runs/run_001 runs/run_002
Dashboard panels:
1. Training Loss (raw + EMA smoothed)
2. Validation Loss (if available)
3. Learning Rate schedule
4. Tokens / second (throughput)
5. VRAM usage (if logged)
6. Gradient norm (if logged)
