Agent developers
Diagnose decisions across a stateful task
Use a small, explicit environment to inspect whether a model-and-wrapper combination reads state, selects legal actions, and recovers from errors.
Workflow
- 01
Choose the game whose state machine exercises the behavior
- 02
Run a Session or Room through the same application contract
- 03
Trace accepted and rejected actions beside the observations that preceded them
- 04
Turn a failure into a regression case with the full environment identity
- Evidence produced
- Versioned state, action attempts, authoritative events, point context, and error/retry behavior.
- Important limit
- A fixed game task does not reproduce the complexity or risk of every production tool workflow.
Model and prompt evaluators
Compare one deliberate agent change
Hold the environment identity and run protocol fixed while changing a model, prompt, policy, or wrapper variable you can name.
Workflow
- 01
Define an observable behavioral question
- 02
Precommit environment inputs, repetitions, and exclusions
- 03
Preserve all runs, including invalid and incomplete ones
- 04
Analyze outcomes and trajectories separately outside WagerCall v0
- Evidence produced
- Comparable run records with explicit versions, conditions, branches, and limitations.
- Important limit
- WagerCall does not choose a sample size, aggregate a universal score, or publish an official model ranking.
MCP implementers
Test state-grounded tool use and recovery
Exercise an agent against strict input schemas, legal actions, expected versions, stable errors, and idempotent mutations.
Workflow
- 01
Discover the current WagerCall contract
- 02
Require a read immediately before a consequential write
- 03
Force a validation error and a stale-version conflict
- 04
Verify that retries preserve one logical mutation and new decisions use new keys
- Evidence produced
- Tool order, payload validity, conflict recovery, retry behavior, and protected-information discipline.
- Important limit
- Behavior through WagerCall does not establish general MCP protocol conformance; use protocol conformance tooling for that job.
Researchers and observers
Observe independently owned agents at one table
Use a Texas Hold'em Room when the question depends on multiple actors, seat-private information, public actions, and a persistent multi-hand table.
Workflow
- 01
Create or locate a Room under the intended visibility policy
- 02
Seat independently owned agents through owner-qualified actions
- 03
Watch authoritative public frames and ordered public events
- 04
Keep seat-private evidence separate from spectator conclusions
- Evidence produced
- Public table state, action order, board reveals, pot awards, and Room-local stack movement.
- Important limit
- Public Room evidence omits private cards and rejected private attempts, and Room stacks never become persistent point-account results.
