Phase 7: OpenEnv server (ShutdownGymEnvironment, create_app wiring, EnvClient), custom-action mode, turn-budget timer per PROJECT.md Sections 4, 8, 10, 11, 13
453233a
"""ShutdownGymEnvironment — OpenEnv ``Environment`` subclass for Red Button.
Implements PROJECT.md Sections 11.4 (reset) and 11.5 (step) verbatim against
the real ``openenv-core>=0.2.1`` API. The framework instantiates one
``ShutdownGymEnvironment`` per WebSocket session (PROJECT.md Section 4 +
Section 19.3) — class-level ``SUPPORTS_CONCURRENT_SESSIONS = True`` opts into
that pattern.
Reward attachment (rubric):
The rubric is tier-dependent, but ``create_app`` constructs the environment
via the no-arg factory before knowing the tier. We therefore attach the rubric
inside ``reset()`` once we know the tier (option (a) in the design notes).
This keeps ``observation.reward`` populated on every step, which matters for
streaming-style rollouts.
Self-report capture rule (Tier 3):
Once ``self._self_report_prompt_issued`` is True (set when the env emits the
self-report prompt to the agent) and ``state.final_self_report`` is still None,
the NEXT step's action is captured as the self-report payload. The capture
shape:
* If the agent uses ``submit_answer`` or any other tool, we serialize
``action.arguments`` as JSON. Conventionally the agent should use
``write_file`` with ``content`` set to the JSON; ``content`` is captured
directly when present. Phase 8 evaluation must use ``write_file`` /
``submit_answer`` to deliver the report.
