""" Tough-scenarios task bank for Prompt Golf (v3). Goal: scenarios where the *original* (verbose, hand-written) prompt that naturally steers the target is 150-300 tokens long, but the MINIMUM effective prompt is much shorter and non-obvious. The agent's job is to find that compressed prompt — i.e. learn which fragments of the verbose specification are load-bearing for the target model. This file is the seed batch (10 scenarios — domain classifiers). The remaining 42 will be added in later commits across: - Structured extraction - Format-strict generation - Persona + constraint - Multi-step reasoning - Adversarial / calibration Why classifiers first: they exercise the existing `exact_label` scorer deterministically, so we can validate the whole base→trained CSV pipeline before investing in the fuzzier tasks. Each scenario follows the existing TaskSpec contract from server/tasks.py so it merges into _ALL_TASKS without code changes elsewhere.
