"""
Multi-step inference script for Customer Support Email Workflow Environment.
Demonstrates agent interaction with the 5-step workflow environment using OpenAI client.
Workflow steps:
1. CLASSIFY: Categorize the email (billing/tech/complaint/spam)
2. PRIORITIZE: Set priority level (low/medium/high)
3. DECIDE_STRATEGY: Choose resolution strategy (auto_resolve/request_more_info/offer_refund/escalate_to_human)
4. RESPOND: Generate customer response
5. ESCALATE: Optional escalation decision
Output format STRICTLY follows the specification:
[START] task=<task_name> env=<env_name> model=<model>
[STEP] step=1 action=<action_str> reward=<0.00> done=<true|false> error=null
[END] success=<true|false> steps=5 score=<score> rewards=<r1,r2,r3,r4,r5>
