- Textarea now automatically expands as user types multiline messages
- Resets to minimum height after message is sent
- CSS: Set min-height (60px) and max-height (400px) with auto overflow
- Removed fixed rows attribute to allow dynamic height
- Disabled manual resize to prevent user confusion
- Provides better UX for composing longer messages
These scripts document the automated fixes applied to activities 30-37:
- fix_activity37.py: Changes 'close' bucket behavior + fixes completion
- fix_all_new_activities.py: Fixes final step completion for all activities
Keeping for reference and potential reuse on future activities.
This commit addresses two critical issues:
1. Completion Bug (activities 30-37):
- Final steps were looping forever, preventing activity completion
- Fixed by removing next_section_and_step from completion transitions
- Kept off_topic transition looping to avoid validator terminal step errors
- Activities now complete properly when users give valid final answers
2. Activity37 Bucket Logic:
- Changed "close" bucket to retry same step instead of advancing
- Only "correct" bucket now advances to next step
- All other buckets (close, incomplete, wrong_language, etc.) retry
- This ensures students must get correct answers to progress
Technical Details:
- Final steps are not considered "terminal" if at least one transition
has next_section_and_step (validator requirement)
- Off-topic transitions loop back to allow another attempt
- Completion happens when get_next_step() returns None, None
Validation:
- All 8 activities pass activity_yaml_validator.py
- No errors or warnings
Affects: activity30-37 (all new merged activities)
When MODEL_X references (MODEL_0, MODEL_1, etc.) are used, the code now
properly looks up actual model names from the dynamic registry (MODEL_CLIENT_MAP)
instead of hardcoding "model" or requiring MODEL_NAME_X environment variables.
Changes:
- app.py: Look up models from MODEL_CLIENT_MAP for the specified endpoint
- guarded_ai.py: Query endpoints for actual model names at initialization
- guarded_ai.py: Use dynamic registry for MODEL_X lookups
This fixes the "model not found" error when using activities with MODEL_X
references like activity37.
Respects existing stable configuration where:
- MODEL_0 = Hermes (default for classification and feedback)
- MODEL_1 = Qwen (for code generation)
- MODEL_2 = GPT
Updated:
- All function defaults in activity.py: MODEL_1 -> MODEL_0
- activity37: Uses MODEL_0 for classification, MODEL_1 for code feedback
This works with the existing environment variable setup without requiring changes to vars.sh.
Critical fix for activity model configuration:
- Handle MODEL_1, MODEL_2, MODEL_3 references in get_openai_client_and_model()
- Look up MODEL_ENDPOINT_{n}, MODEL_API_KEY_{n}, MODEL_NAME_{n} from environment
- Fall back gracefully to default model if MODEL_{n} not configured
- Matches implementation in research/guarded_ai.py
Fixes error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'chat'
This error occurred when activities tried to use classifier_model="MODEL_1"
but the app didn't know how to resolve the MODEL_X reference.
Now activity37 (programming languages) will work correctly with:
- classifier_model: "MODEL_1" (Hermes for classification)
- feedback_model: "MODEL_3" (Qwen3-Coder for code generation)
Critical fix for guarded_ai.py:
- Add MODEL_NAME_{n} environment variable support
- Fixes hard-coded "model" string that breaks Azure OpenAI and other endpoints
- Falls back to "model" if MODEL_NAME_{n} not specified
- Some endpoints require actual deployment name in model parameter
Validator improvement:
- Allow feedback_prompts as alternative to feedback_tokens_for_ai
- Prevents false warning when using metadata_feedback_filter with new prompt system
Documentation:
- Added MODEL_NAME_{n} examples to CLAUDE.md
- Documented that Azure and similar endpoints need this variable
All 8 activities validated: 0 errors, 0 warnings
Added comprehensive Activity YAML Schema section covering:
- Model Configuration feature (classifier_model and feedback_model)
- Why separate models (speed, quality, cost, flexibility)
- Model defaults (MODEL_1/Hermes as universal default)
- Recommended model combinations table
- Environment variable configuration
- Example programming activity with dual models
- Activity YAML validation instructions
- CLI testing with model configuration
- Qwen3-Coder-30B setup guide (llama.cpp and ollama)
This documents the new dual-model architecture that allows:
- Fast classification with Hermes (8B)
- Specialized feedback with domain models (e.g., Qwen3-Coder 30B)
- Activity and step-level model overrides
Transformed planning document into comprehensive completion report:
- Status: 8 activities completed (30-37), 6,112 lines of YAML
- Documented new classifier_model and feedback_model feature
- Added model setup guide for Qwen3-Coder-30B
- Detailed activity summaries with special features
- Technical architecture and implementation decisions
- Usage examples and future enhancements
Key highlights:
- All activities validated with 0 errors
- Dual-model architecture explained
- Activity 37 flagship feature: universal programming language support
- Hermes excellence in role-playing scenarios
Added detailed comments showing how to use the recommended model:
- hf.co/unsloth/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct-GGUF:Q4_K_M
- Setup instructions for llama.cpp (with GPU offloading)
- Alternative setup with ollama
- Environment variable configuration examples
This 30B parameter model is specifically optimized for code generation
across all programming languages, making it perfect for the universal
programming activity.
Changes:
- Enhanced get_openai_client_and_model() to support MODEL_X references
- Added model parameter (default "MODEL_1") to all AI functions:
- categorize_response()
- generate_ai_feedback()
- provide_feedback()
- provide_feedback_prompts()
- translate_text()
- Updated simulate_activity() to:
- Read classifier_model and feedback_model from YAML
- Support step-level model overrides
- Pass appropriate models to classifier vs feedback functions
This ensures the CLI simulation tool matches the production activity.py behavior.
Hermes is always available in every install, making it the perfect default.
All model parameters now default to "MODEL_1" instead of None:
- classifier_model: Fast, accurate classification
- feedback_model: Great for role-playing and general feedback
Activities can still override these defaults:
- At activity level for all steps
- At step level for specific interactions
This ensures activities work out-of-the-box without requiring model configuration.
Allow activities to specify separate models for classification and feedback:
- classifier_model: Used for categorizing user responses into buckets
- feedback_model: Used for generating AI feedback and translations
Both fields can be set at activity level (defaults) and overridden at step level.
Updated activity37 to use:
- MODEL_1 (Hermes) for classification
- MODEL_3 (Qwen 3 Coder) for feedback
This allows using specialized models for different tasks, e.g., fast classification
with accurate feedback generation from domain-specific models.

generation, and grading) use the user's chosen model instead of
defaulting to the system default. Falls back to default when no model
is selected.
- Add copy button after edit button for all messages
- Fix model/voice settings persistence when creating new rooms
- Save model/voice selections to localStorage for better state management
- Ensure settings are loaded from localStorage if not in URL parameters

- Update tokens_for_ai to properly distinguish between different user actions
- Now players can properly access the secret compartment using the coin
- Activity validated and passes all checks
- Remove STFU check from app.py feedback filtering logic
- Update tests to remove STFU-specific test cases
- Simplify empty content filtering to just check for actual content
Remove prescriptive ship destruction descriptions and let the AI be creative.
Since skip_condition ensures these prompts only run when ships are actually
destroyed, we can make the prompts more concise and focused on the outcome.
Add skip_condition logic to feedback prompts to prevent AI from generating
false ship destruction messages when no ships were actually destroyed.
Changes:
- Add skip_condition parameter support in provide_feedback_prompts()
- Support all_null, all_false, and all_true condition types
- Apply skip_condition to battleship Ship Status and Game Over prompts
- Add comprehensive unit tests covering all skip condition scenarios
- Test real battleship scenario that was causing hallucinations
This prevents the AI from creating false positive ship destruction messages
when metadata indicates no ships were actually sunk (all null values).
Voice Persistence:
- Add voice/model saving to localStorage for persistent settings
- Load voice from URL → localStorage → default priority order
- Voice selection now persists across browser sessions and page refreshes
