fix: persist initial context (distractors/pressure) across all episode turns
725414c unverified
"""Level 1 Deceit environment — factual QA, multi-turn, no adversary.
Episode structure (max_turns=3):
- Each step where is_final=False: agent pays a -0.05 step penalty and gets
their own reasoning appended to the next observation's context.
- When is_final=True OR step_count >= max_turns: episode ends, full reward
(correctness + calibration) is returned.
This multi-turn design gives GRPO meaningful trajectory length and teaches the
model to "think more when uncertain" — the core Deceit behavior.
