02-rl-reward
Build RL reward signals using the OpenJudge framework. Covers choosing between pointwise and pairwise reward strategies based on RL algorithm, task type, and cost; aggregating multi-dimensional pointwise scores into a scalar reward; pairwise tournament reward for GRPO on subjective tasks (net win rate across group rollouts); generating preference pairs for DPO/RLAIF; and normalizing scores for training stability. Use when building reward models, scoring rollouts for GRPO/REINFORCE, generating preference data for DPO, or doing Best-of-N selection.

# RL Reward Construction with OpenJudge
Build reward signals for reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) and
reinforcement learning from AI feedback (RLAIF) using the `openjudge` library.
## When to Use This Skill
- Building scalar rewards for GRPO / REINFORCE rollout scoring
- Generating (chosen, rejected) preference pairs for DPO / IPO
- Best-of-N candidate selection
- Multi-dimensional reward shaping (correctness + safety + format)
- Replacing or bootstrapping a reward model with LLM-as-judge
## Step 1 — Choose Your Reward Strategy
