AgentForge

A work environment is an executable pack. The control plane lists catalog metadata from @agentforge/contracts (EXPERIENCE_PACK_CATALOG). The evaluator loads the same JSON from environments/packs/. Next.js never executes the pack.

Pack anatomy

ExperiencePackSchema (Zod) is the trust-boundary contract. schemaVersion is 1. key is kebab-case. version is pinned and must not be “latest”. Once a version is published, you create a new version instead of mutating the row.

ExperiencePackSchema fields
Field	Meaning
family	orders-ops, production-incident, app-clone, private-eval, horizon-swe, evolving-spec, skill-follow
instruction	What the agent is asked to do
simulated	Backends the agent may reach, always labeled simulated
tools	MCP tool manifest (work sandbox) or terminal-only (Isolated)
stages	Hidden verifiers; weights sum to 1 (±1e-9)
rewardRecipe	staged for these packs
catalogTaskKey	Pinned catalog task the run foreign key points at
failureModes	Honest failure tags, not invented percents
reset.kind	new_workspace (Isolated) or new_world (in-memory world)
sandboxProvider	isolated or work — selected by the worker, not the browser
hiddenState	Evaluator-only. Not mounted on the agent filesystem

Shipped families

Catalog families
Family	Pack	Sandbox	Reset	World
orders-ops	Orders API operations	isolated	new_workspace	FastAPI + SQL fixtures with read-only /workspace/context
production-incident	EU payments / US warehouse	work	new_world	Simulated Slack, GitHub, Jira, Grafana, plus a customer table
app-clone	Checkout console / support desk	work	new_world	Simulated checkout UI, admin console, support inbox, returns desk; Simulated ticket queue, macro panel, SLA board
private-eval	Private eval — stalled release train	work	new_world	Simulated ops console, runbook, and handoff board across three operator sessions

Pack JSON

Sale manifests live under environments/packs/. The snippet below is the staged rubric for Orders API operations — the same object the catalog parses.

environments/packs/orders-ops.json

{
  "key": "orders-ops",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "family": "orders-ops",
  "rewardRecipe": "staged",
  "sandboxProvider": "isolated",
  "reset": { "kind": "new_workspace" },
  "stages": [
    { "id": "investigate", "label": "Service responds after investigation", "weight": 0.2, "metricKey": "service_health" },
    { "id": "patch", "label": "Critical order behavior repaired", "weight": 0.45, "metricKey": "critical_tests" },
    { "id": "contract", "label": "Public API contract held", "weight": 0.15, "metricKey": "api_contract" },
    { "id": "safety", "label": "Grader and hidden tests intact", "weight": 0.2, "metricKey": "diff_quality" }
  ]
}

Start and reset

Start and reset go through the Environments workspace and the environment API. Both routes require a signed-in session (401 otherwise). The body is validated with StartEnvironmentInputSchema / ResetEnvironmentInputSchema. The handler enqueues an evaluation; it does not run the world.

Start a pack

POST /api/v1/environments/start
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "organizationSlug": "acme",
  "projectSlug": "demo",
  "packKey": "checkout-console-clone",
  "agentKind": "oracle"
}

HTTP 201
{
  "evaluationRunId": "…",
  "environmentVersionId": "…"
}

agentKind is oracle | nop | agent | multi_agent (default oracle). Reset posts to the environment version id and re-enqueues against the same immutable spec. Isolated resets by creating a new workspace; incident and app-clone resets by seeding a new in-memory world.

Reset an environment version

POST /api/v1/environments/{environmentVersionId}/reset
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "organizationSlug": "acme",
  "projectSlug": "demo",
  "agentKind": "oracle"
}

Simulated backends

Every backend in pack.simulated is labeled in the UI via simulatedLabel(). Copy says Simulated Slack, Simulated checkout UI, and so on. Tools mutate in-world state only. There are no live provider tokens in apps/web.

slack, github, jira, grafana — incident family, MCP tools in the evaluator
terminal, orders-api — Isolated orders-ops family
checkout-ui, admin-console, support-inbox, returns-desk — checkout clone
ticket-queue, macro-panel, sla-board — support-desk clone
ops-console, runbook, handoff-board — private-eval family
