asta-rgc-challenge

Wrap up and package an Asta research-challenge run (or any autonomous research run) for submission — built around NOT hallucinating the write-up. Its core is (1) grounding every feedback/submission claim against the REAL conversation context — via a context-inheriting fork that sees what actually happened, not just the files or a from-memory summary — and (2) capturing the full session trace (trace.tar.gz) so every claim is verifiable against the raw source. Use this whenever the user is finishing a challenge and says things like "wrap up the challenge", "prepare/package the submission", "write the skills feedback", "ground the feedback", "make sure the feedback is true", "cite where that happened", "generate the trace", "set up the submission", or "we just finished a job, package it". It also verifies deliverables, sets up a clean env, scaffolds the submission form fields + RESEARCH_CHALLENGE.md, and optionally publishes to GitHub + Pages so the HTML renders. Reach for it even if the user names only one piec

Scaffold a NEW research repository for an Asta research project — the front bookend to `asta-challenge-wrapup`. Use this whenever the user wants to start a research project and says things like "set up a research repo", "start a new research project", "scaffold a research repository", "create a research project", "make me a Quarto research repo", "init the research environment", or "new Asta challenge repo". It creates (or clones) a git repo, drops in a Quarto scaffold so reports render with citations, sets up a sane .gitignore and a clean Python env, adds a data/ folder with a data dictionary, and — only if asked — the optional GitHub Pages workflow and devcontainer. Defaults to PRIVATE (research/blind-challenge data shouldn't be public up front). Reach for it even if the user only names one piece (e.g. "just add the Quarto scaffold").
