Summary

Remove mmcv from dependencies — it was a leftover from the dead Detic integration (import commented out, directory excluded from mypy). Zero imports anywhere in the codebase.

Eliminates a slow source build from uv sync.

Verification

  • AST-parsed every .py file — no mmcv/mmengine imports
  • grep -rn mmcv only hits pyproject.toml and egg-info
  • Local pytest: 967 passed, 6 skipped
  • Local mypy: 636 files, no issues

Greptile Summary

Removed the unused mmcv dependency from the cuda extras group. This dependency was a leftover from the discontinued Detic integration (which is now commented out at dimos/perception/detection/detectors/__init__.py:1 and excluded from mypy checks).

  • Removed mmcv>=2.1.0 from [project.optional-dependencies.cuda]
  • Removed mmcv from [tool.uv.no-build-isolation-package] config
  • Updated uv.lock to reflect the removal

The PR author verified zero imports exist in the codebase and confirmed all tests pass (967 passed, 6 skipped) with no mypy issues. This change eliminates a slow source build during uv sync, improving developer experience.

Confidence Score: 5/5

  • This PR is safe to merge with no risk
  • The change only removes an unused dependency with zero imports in the codebase, verified by both AST parsing and grep searches. The dependency was a leftover from discontinued Detic integration. All tests pass (967 passed, 6 skipped) and mypy reports no issues across 636 files. The change is purely additive in terms of removing build overhead.
  • No files require special attention

Both were leftovers from the dead Detic integration (import commented
out, directory excluded from mypy). Zero imports of either package
anywhere in the codebase. Removing them eliminates slow source builds
and 3 transitive packages from uv sync.

Release v0.0.10: Manipulation Stack, MuJoCo Simulation, DDS Transport, Web and Native Visualization via Rerun


## Highlights

88+ commits, 20 contributors, 700+ files changed.

The TLDR: **a complete manipulation stack**, **MuJoCo simulation**, **DDS transport**, and **a rewritten visualization pipeline**. Agents are no longer bolted on top — they're refactored as native modules with direct stream access. The entire ROS message dependency has been removed from core DimOS, and we've added VR, phone, and arm teleoperation stacks. You can now vibecode a pick-and-place task from natural language to motor commands. Installation has been significantly streamlined — no more direnv, simpler setup, and the web viewer is now the default.

## Quickstart

```bash
# Install
uv pip install dimos[base,unitree]

# Try it (no hardware needed)
# NOTE: First run downloads ~2.4 GB from LFS
dimos --replay run unitree-go2

# Simulate
uv pip install dimos[base,unitree,sim]
dimos --simulation run unitree-go2
```
