Engineer Manager Environment

Engineer Manager is an OpenEnv-compatible scheduling simulator for balancing deep work, meetings, and communication load across a workday.

What it exposes

• POST /reset to start a fresh episode
• POST /step to apply a scheduling action
• GET /state for the current session state
• GET /schema for the action and observation schemas
• GET /web for the built-in OpenEnv web UI

Local usage

python -m server.app --port 8000
openenv validate .
openenv validate http://127.0.0.1:8000

Action model

• target_slot: target half-hour slot
• operation: 0 idle, 1 schedule work, 2 reschedule meeting, 3 mute comms

Observation highlights

• timeline: day plan encoded as empty/work/meeting slots
• task_buffer: pending tasks with estimated duration and hidden complexity
• flow_score, social_debt, calendar_churn: core scoring metrics
• current_slot, current_time, recovery_state, mute_comms: live execution state

Built-in benchmark tasks

Set TASK_NAME to select a deterministic scenario before reset. Available tasks:

• quiet-morning: high-noise start where muting comms early and protecting focus is rewarded
• meeting-surgery: fragmented calendar where selective meeting moves should improve flow
• delivery-triage: constrained delivery day with hidden task complexity and tighter tradeoffs

Each task has a grader in benchmark_tasks.py. The environment also exposes task metadata and the current grader score in observation.metadata.episode_metrics.grader_score.
