## Summary

HATCH is an open-specification, physically replicable, sensor-scored, and unrehearsable robot manipulation benchmark, accepted to the 5th Open Robot Software Workshop at IROS 2026 (2 pages, 1 table). Tasks span five skill categories and three difficulty levels, and a sensor that confirms completion of one task unlocks the next, chaining an entire room into a single long-horizon evaluation.
