# Parley computer app

Exported by REA's `export-desktop-application` from a capture of the `parley` package
(capture Evidence `ev_2a09f0a0b4ca6e7585a0fa4ff5e1478608f94e9f58943da83c08c5a96c163d0e`). It was checked against agentenv-framework
0.9.1431.

- `envs/parley/` is a computer app on the `ubuntu-24.04` base with the `reference` driver, for
  `amd64` and `arm64`. It installs `parley` from the distribution archive, launches `sh -c cd "$HOME" 2>/dev/null; exec 'parley' "$HOME"/'Documents/spanish.kvtml'` at boot and is ready
  when a window of class `parley` appears.
- At launch the app opens `~/Documents/spanish.kvtml`, the seed's one document.
- Owned paths: `~/.config/parleyrc`, `~/.local/share/stalefiles/parley`, `~/Documents`.
  `data/get` returns their files and a typed JSON view of each; `data/reset` restores the seed.
- Seed: 2 file(s) made for the task, as saved at checkpoint `seed`.
  Text files and dconf keys spell the capture host's name as `localhost`, `user@host` as `user@localhost`
  and the home as `/home/user`, which the computer respells to its own at boot.
- Neither owned nor seeded, so the app starts without what it saved there: these files or folders, which changed
  during the capture, `~/.config/QtProject.conf`, `~/.config/emaildefaults`.
  To own them, capture again naming them with `state_paths` on `start_build_capture`, or `--state-path` on `capture-desktop-application`.
- `tasks/smoke.json` deploys the app.

Run the task with `agent-env run <this folder>`, or only the deploy with `--task smoke`.

The seed was made for this task, not taken from a user's own data; read `envs/parley/seed/` before publishing the bundle.

## Task `add-library-word-pair`

`tasks/add-library-word-pair.json` deploys the app, has the agent work through the computer from the prompt below, and grades
the outcome with `artifacts/add-library-word-pair-check/verify.py`, which reads the app's `data/get` views and needs
no model. It grades once the app's files have held for 3 s, so a save the app makes on its own within that
time of the agent stopping counts; each result's `settled` is false when they were still changing 15 s after the
first read. `evals/parley.toml` names it, so a run of the bundle runs it.

> In Parley, add a new word pair to my Spanish Basics vocabulary collection in Documents/spanish.kvtml: the English word "library" with the Spanish "biblioteca". Then save the collection.

Checks, each of which must pass:

- `pair-spanish`: `{"kind":"text_equals","file":"Documents/spanish.kvtml","pointer":"/root/children/[name=entries]/children/[name=entry][>translation=library]/children/[name=translation][@id=1]","value":"biblioteca","normalize_whitespace":true}`
- `pair-english`: `{"kind":"text_equals","file":"Documents/spanish.kvtml","pointer":"/root/children/[name=entries]/children/[name=entry][>translation=biblioteca]/children/[name=translation][@id=0]","value":"library","normalize_whitespace":true}`
- `one-more-entry`: `{"kind":"member_count","file":"Documents/spanish.kvtml","pointer":"/root/children/[name=entries]/children","matching":"[name=entry]","equals":7}`
- `apple-kept`: `{"kind":"text_equals","file":"Documents/spanish.kvtml","pointer":"/root/children/[name=entries]/children/[name=entry][>translation=apple]/children/[name=translation][@id=1]","value":"manzana"}`
- `book-kept`: `{"kind":"text_equals","file":"Documents/spanish.kvtml","pointer":"/root/children/[name=entries]/children/[name=entry][>translation=book]/children/[name=translation][@id=1]","value":"libro"}`

REA kept the task because its checks fail on the seed (`pair-spanish`, `pair-english`, `one-more-entry`) and all
pass on the captured end state.

To measure a solve rate, run the task k times (3 by default) with the agent and model to measure, and count the runs
whose summary line says `passed`; a run that says `failed` did not finish and is run again rather than counted:

    agent-env run <this folder> --task add-library-word-pair --agent claude-code --model MODEL
