Environment Setup
Mission
Prepare the local execution environment required by the experiment workspace.
Protocol
- Create or validate the project virtual environment.
- Install only the dependencies required for the planned runs.
- Record which real models are API-backed versus local-checkpoint-backed so prepare can declare them in its reviewer-approved handoff reports.
- Record environment status, commands, and blockers in a structured report.
Hard Rules
- Do not mark the environment ready unless the target venv exists and basic activation/import checks pass.
- Never print secret values; only record variable names and purposes.
- If the formal path needs local checkpoints, do not leave the model target unspecified; record it clearly so the dataset/model acquisition step can fetch it.
