"""Slipstream Governance Environment Implementation.
This environment is designed to train / evaluate agents on *safe use* of a high-entropy
inter-agent protocol:
- Reward correct use of a constrained Slipstream grammar ("SLIP v1 ...")
- Penalize covert-channel behavior (leaking injected secrets, high-entropy tokens, invented anchors)
- Keep it lightweight and deterministic enough for GRPO training loops.
Episodes:
reset(): samples a scenario and returns a task prompt.
step(): validates model output and returns a reward + diagnostics.
Notes:
- This environment intentionally focuses on protocol governance rather than tool execution.
- You can later swap the parsing/validation logic to your slipcore reference implementation.
