easily accessible after the ROBOT has CLIMBED the PYRAMID,
on opposite sides of the ROBOT,
located near the ROBOT’S balance point, and
made from exposed structural members that will allow a rope to be wrapped around it or two eyelets (McMaster PN3014T45 or similar) mounted to the frame. Opening of the eyelets must be at least ¾ in. in diameter.

I'm just going to leave it there

Your load requirement is your robot weight. Preferably, one eyelet should be able to hold your robot with a safety factor. The dynamic loading on these bolts is not going to vary much from the static load since the robot is being moved by team members. The belayer will be slacking the line to keep the line taut.
