Optional agent policies for CoGames

cogames-agents

Optional scripted policies for CoGames. Use them for quick baselines, play/eval smoke tests, or as teacher policies.

Scripted policy registry

The registry at cogames_agents.policy.scripted_registry maps policy short_names to metta://policy/... URIs. Scripted agents and teachers share these identifiers, so the same name works for evaluation, play, and TeacherConfig.policy_uri.

To list the current names:

python -c "from cogames_agents.policy.scripted_registry import list_scripted_agent_names; print(list_scripted_agent_names())"

Common scripted policy names include:

• Baselines: baseline, tiny_baseline, ladybug_py
• Nim baselines: thinky, race_car, ladybug, nim_random
• CogsGuard core: role, role_py, wombo
• CogsGuard variants: alignall, cogsguard_control, cogsguard_targeted, cogsguard_v2
• CogsGuard roles: miner, scout, aligner, scrambler
• Teacher: teacher
• Pinky: pinky

For the full registry snapshot, see docs/scripted-agent-registry.md.

Role-specific policies are exposed via role names (miner/scout/aligner/scrambler). For the teacher policy, you can pass role_vibes as a comma-separated list:

metta://policy/teacher?role_vibes=miner,scout

Fixed-role mixes and explicit orderings are configured via role_py parameters:

Examples:

metta://policy/role_py?role_cycle=aligner,miner,scrambler,scout
metta://policy/role_py?role_order=aligner,miner,aligner,miner,scout

Pinky role counts are applied in a different order than CogsGuard:

• Pinky order: miner -> scout -> aligner -> scrambler, and any remaining agents stay default/noop.
• CogsGuard order: scrambler -> aligner -> miner -> scout, then fills remaining agents with gear.

Examples:

metta://policy/pinky?miner=4&aligner=2&scrambler=4
metta://policy/pinky?miner=2&scout=2&aligner=1&scrambler=1&debug=1

Recipe usage

The recipes.experiment.scripted_agents recipe accepts the same scripted policy names:

./tools/run.py recipes.experiment.scripted_agents.play agent=thinky suite=cvc_arena
./tools/run.py recipes.experiment.scripted_agents.play agent=miner suite=cogsguard

Included policies

• Short names map to the fastest implementation (Nim when available, otherwise Python).
• _nim aliases exist when there is a Nim implementation alongside Python.
• See docs/scripted-agent-registry.md for the canonical short-name list.
• Teacher wrapper: teacher (teacher_nim) forces an initial role/vibe, then delegates to the Nim policy.
