💡 Key Insights

The Core System

Email → Agent Reply → Reward (0–1) using Deterministic Grading

Three Endpoints:
  POST /reset(task_id)  → Initialize episode
  POST /step(action)    → Process reply, get reward
  GET  /state           → Query current state

The Three Tasks

• —easy_1 → Product issue (simple keywords)
• —medium_1 → Billing dispute (emotion handling)
• —hard_1 → Multiple issues (complex logic)

The Tech Stack

• —Python 3.10+ / FastAPI / OpenAI / Docker / Hugging Face Spaces

The Timeline

• —Phase 1: Core Logic (4 hours)
• —Phase 2: API & Testing (4 hours)
• —Phase 3: Deployment (4 hours)
• —Phase 4: Polish (4 hours)
• —Total: ~16 hours (2-day sprint)
