👋 BEFORE YOU SUBMIT:

Follow these steps in order to ensure successful submission:

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 1: TEST LOCALLY (5 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Set environment variables:

    Terminal:
    $ export HF_TOKEN="hf_your_actual_huggingface_token"
    $ export API_BASE_URL="https://router.huggingface.co/v1"
    $ export MODEL_NAME="Qwen/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct"

[ ] 2. Start the environment server:

    Terminal 1:
    $ python server.py

    Expected output:
    INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:7860

[ ] 3. Test inference script in another terminal:

    Terminal 2:
    $ python inference.py

    Expected output:
    [START]
    Task: easy

    [STEP]
    Action: FIX_ENTRY ...
    Reward: 0.10

    [END]
    Final Score: 0.75

    ✅ If you see [START], [STEP], [END] — SUCCESS!

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 2: VERIFY FILES (2 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Check that these files exist at PROJECT ROOT:

[ ] ✅ inference.py
      Location: ./inference.py (NOT src/inference.py or app/inference.py)
      Check: ls -la inference.py

[ ] ✅ requirements.txt
      Contains: openai, fastapi, pydantic, uvicorn, gradio

[ ] ✅ Dockerfile
      Contains: FROM python:3.10-slim, EXPOSE 7860, CMD ["python", "demo.py"]

[ ] ✅ README.md
      Sections: Problem, Solution, RL Reasoning, Setup, Results

[ ] ✅ openenv.yaml
      Contains: name, version, 3 tasks (easy, medium, hard)

[ ] ✅ server.py
      Endpoints: /reset, /step, /state, /health

[ ] ✅ tasks.py
      Defines: LedgerEnvironment, AuditObservation, task configs

[ ] ✅ demo.py
      Opens on: localhost:7860 (Gradio interface)

[ ] ✅ .gitignore
      Excludes: .env, *.key, __pycache__

Run validation:
$ python validate_submission.py

Expected: 12/13 passed ✅ (Docker check is not critical)

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 3: PREPARE GITHUB (5 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Create/ensure public GitHub repository:

    $ git init (if not already initialized)
    $ git add .
    $ git commit -m "Final submission - AuditRepairEnv++"
    $ git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env
    $ git branch -M main
    $ git push -u origin main

[ ] 2. Verify repository is PUBLIC:

    → Go to https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env
    → Click Settings
    → Under "Danger Zone", verify it's PUBLIC (not private)

[ ] 3. Confirm all files are committed:

    $ git status
    Expected: "nothing to commit, working tree clean"

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 4: CREATE HUGGING FACE SPACES (10 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Go to https://huggingface.co/spaces/create

[ ] 2. Fill in:
    Owner: [Your HF username]
    Space name: audit-repair-env (or your choice)
    License: MIT
    SDK: Docker ← IMPORTANT!

[ ] 3. Click "Create Space"

[ ] 4. You'll see a repo setup page. READ the instructions.

[ ] 5. Link GitHub repo:
    - In Space: Settings (gear icon) → "Linked Repository"
    - Click "Link a repository"
    - Select: your-username/audit-repair-env
    - Mode: Sync (auto-redeploy on GitHub push)

[ ] 6. Set environment secrets:
    - Settings → "Repository secrets"
    - Add secret:
      Name: HF_TOKEN
      Value: hf_... (your actual token)

    - Add secret:
      Name: API_BASE_URL
      Value: https://router.huggingface.co/v1

    - Add secret:
      Name: MODEL_NAME
      Value: Qwen/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 5: WAIT FOR BUILD (10-15 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Go to your Space: https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env

[ ] 2. Click "Logs" tab at the top

[ ] 3. Watch the build progress:
    - Should see: "Building Docker image..."
    - Then: "Creating container..."
    - Finally: Status changes to "Running" ✅

[ ] 4. If build fails:
    - Check Logs for error message
    - Common issues:
      • Missing dependency in requirements.txt → Add it, push to GitHub, Spaces auto-rebuilds
      • HF_TOKEN not set → Set in Spaces Settings → "Repository secrets"
      • Ports: Check Dockerfile uses EXPOSE 7860

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 6: TEST HF SPACES (5 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Status shows "Running" ✅

[ ] 2. Click "App" link (or visit: https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env)

[ ] 3. You should see:
    - Gradio interface
    - Dark/minimal aesthetic
    - "Run Inference" button
    - Task dropdown

[ ] 4. Test it:
    - Select "easy" task
    - Click "Run Inference"
    - Wait 30-60 seconds
    - Should see inference output

[ ] 5. If it doesn't work:
    - Check Logs for errors
    - Verify HF_TOKEN is valid
    - Try admin panel at: https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env/settings

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 7: PREPARE FOR SUBMISSION (5 minutes)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Get your GitHub URL:
    https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env

[ ] 2. Get your HF Spaces URL:
    https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env

[ ] 3. Prepare README links:
    - Add to your GitHub README:
      "**Live Demo:** [AuditRepairEnv++ on HF Spaces](https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env)"

[ ] 4. Document setup in README:
    - Setup: pip install -r requirements.txt
    - Run: export HF_TOKEN="..."; python inference.py
    - Deploy: See HF_SPACES_GUIDE.md

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

STEP 8: SUBMIT TO HACKATHON
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

[ ] 1. Go to hackathon submission page

[ ] 2. Submit:
    - GitHub Repository URL:
      https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env

    - Hugging Face Spaces URL:
      https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/audit-repair-env

    - README.md link (or paste content)

    - Brief description (30 seconds):
      "AuditRepairEnv++ is an RL environment where agents repair financial
       ledgers with interdependent errors under budget constraints. It tests
       multi-step planning and reasoning under uncertainty."

[ ] 3. Check that both URLs work one more time

[ ] 4. SUBMIT! 🎉

TROUBLESHOOTING QUICK REFERENCE

Problem: HF_TOKEN validation error
Solution: 
  1. Get token: huggingface.co/settings/tokens
  2. Export: export HF_TOKEN="hf_..."
  3. Or set in HF Spaces: Settings → Repository secrets

Problem: Docker build fails in HF Spaces
Solution:
  1. Check Logs for error
  2. Verify all files committed to GitHub
  3. Test locally first: docker build .
  4. Common: Missing dependency in requirements.txt

Problem: "Application Error" on HF Spaces
Solution:
  1. Check that app runs on 0.0.0.0:7860
  2. Verify HF_TOKEN is set (see above)
  3. Check Logs for Python errors
  4. Restart Space: Settings → Restart

Problem: Output format wrong
Solution:
  Verify inference.py prints exactly:
  - [START] at beginning
  - [STEP] per step (with Action and Reward)
  - [END] at end
  - Rewards formatted: {reward:.2f}
