after 2 showed 9-13hcp,I know 2 was forcing a round,cuebid 2 to let Robot go on to describe its hand,but Robot pass! a ugly auction,actually Robot only have 8 hcp,so I think Robot should bid 1nt instead of bad suit 2.

Actually 2 is non-forcing constructive, not forcing one round, which is a common treatment for advancing overcalls. And it's not unreasonable to play 2 in this position as natural. Sometimes you are dealt aqxxx xx akjxx x and what else are you going to do?

With your actual hand, you could simply raise to 3.

I agree with its bad suit quality it should probably have bid 1nt instead of 2.
