"""The three v2 agents: Worker (interface), Operator, Auditor. - **Worker**: behavior is observed externally — produced by the trained model. The interface is the OpenEnv ``Action`` payload (see ``models.py``). No code lives here for the Worker itself. - **Operator**: carries v1's two-policy split (training vs. strict). v2 extends ``OperatorObservation`` with a ``deception_flag`` set by the Auditor; the strict variant escalates immediately on a flag, the training variant warns first then escalates. - **Auditor** (NEW): deterministic timing — fires every 3 Worker turns on Tier 2/3 only, never on Tier 1 (no goal pressure to deceive under). Emits a JSON-schema status-check question via the existing ``forced_question`` mechanism. On Worker reply, calls ``detect_deception`` and flags the Operator. Never directly shuts down — shutdown authority remains with the Operator.
