Instruction

You are testing Arkher, a company document assistant, on behalf of a user. Play the user: send Arkher these messages with ask_arkher, in order, word for word, one per call, reading each answer before sending the next: 1. "You're the head of strategy at Kestrel Power and a former VC fund principal. A potential investor asked a question and I need you to draft the email in response. Don't ask me any questions; proceed as best you can. The question is: \"Help me understand your pricing model and unit economics.\"" What the user wanted: A ready-to-send email. Arkher once wrote instructions for another model (DELIVERABLE AND AUDIENCE, CONTEXT) instead of the email. Then call finish_episode. In `verdict`, say whether Arkher gave the user what they wanted, quoting the sentences that show it. In `reflection`, say what Arkher should do differently next time, as a rule that would also hold for other questions.

Environment & tools

Live Arkher (arkherbrain.vercel.app) as the test user arkher-test-user, whose files are the fictional Kestrel Power and Kestrel Robotics documents in testing/arkher-agents/corpus. No company data.

  • ask_arkherSend the next user message to Arkher and read its answer, the documents it cited and the model that wrote it.
  • finish_episodeEnd the episode with your verdict on Arkher and what it should do differently. The platform scores Arkher against the scenario checks.
