## When to use it

Use Try improvements only when it is exposed for a supported saved single-cube experiment, or to revisit retained comparisons. A guide article cannot enable this capability or grant model calls.

## Steps

1. Open Try improvements for the saved experiment. State the question and select the available method. Native search and agent-assisted comparison have distinct runtime and authorization requirements.
2. Prepare comparison, then review its task, limits and disclosure. Review and start and its confirmation are a separate decision to run the finite comparison.
3. Read comparison status and results. Stop requests cancellation. Check status reconciles the original comparison without starting another one.
4. Explicitly select a simulation configuration if offered, or record Keep current, Reject or Inconclusive. Previous comparisons lets you inspect retained results and Restore prior configuration.

## What to expect

Selection creates a simulation revision. It does not qualify a physical controller or establish general model superiority. Reduced retained comparisons remain readable offline, while new preparation, status, selection and restoration need the owning Mac.

## If something goes wrong

- If Start or Stop is uncertain, reconnect and use Check status for the same comparison. Stop not confirmed means Roboty has not confirmed that the attempt ended. The Mac may have received the request while work is still stopping. Wait for a confirmed terminal status before preparing replacement work.
- If the selected agent runtime is unavailable, read its reason. Reading Help does not install a model, add an allocation or expose the capability.
- If publication of a selection conflicts with a newer experiment, review the retained decision and use Preserve current experiment when appropriate. Corrupt recovery records block overwrites and preserve original data.
