+# Invoice Processing Pipeline — OpenEnv Environment
+
+An OpenEnv environment where an AI agent learns to **extract**, **clean**, and **reconcile** invoice data — a task that mirrors real-world accounts-payable workflows affecting every business.
+
+The agent receives raw invoice text (simulating OCR output or messy CSV imports), processes it into structured data, and receives graded scores (0.0–1.0) with detailed feedback at every step.
+
+---
+
+## Motivation
+
+Invoice processing is one of the most common, tedious, and error-prone tasks in business operations. Finance teams spend countless hours:
+
+- **Extracting** vendor names, dates, line items, and totals from unstructured documents
+- **Cleaning** inconsistent formats (dates, currencies, vendor name variations)
+- **Reconciling** invoices against purchase orders to catch overcharges, missing items, and billing errors
+
+This environment provides a controlled, reproducible setting to train and evaluate AI agents on these tasks, with clear partial-credit signals that make it suitable for RL training.

+
+## Tasks
+
+| Task | Difficulty | Description |
+|------|-----------|-------------|
+| `easy` | Easy | Extract structured fields from a **single, clean** invoice |
+| `medium` | Medium | Clean and normalise a **batch of messy** invoices (3–5 invoices) |
+| `hard` | Hard | Extract, clean, AND **reconcile against purchase orders** with discrepancy detection |
+
+### Easy: Single Invoice Extraction
+
+The agent receives a well-formatted invoice with clear structure. It must extract: vendor name, date, currency, total, and all line items with descriptions, quantities, unit prices, and amounts.
+
+### Medium: Batch Invoice Cleaning
+
+The agent receives 3–5 invoices with realistic messiness:
+- **Date format chaos**: `01/15/2024`, `15-01-2024`, `January 15, 2024`, `15.01.2024`
+- **Vendor name typos**: `"Acme Crp"`, `"GloablTech Solutions"`, `"Prmie Office Supplies"`
+- **Mixed currency formats**: `$`, `€`, `£` symbols instead of `USD`, `EUR`, `GBP` codes
+- **String/number mixing**: amounts like `"$149.99"` instead of `149.99`
+- **Math errors**: `qty × unit_price ≠ amount` in some line items
+
+### Hard: Invoice-PO Reconciliation
+
+The agent receives messy invoices PLUS purchase orders and must:
+1. Clean all invoice data (same as medium)
+2. Compare each invoice against its corresponding PO
+3. Flag discrepancies: overcharges, extra items, and missing items
+
+---
+
+## Observation Space
+
+| Field | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `raw_text` | string | Raw invoice text (OCR-style or batch format) |
+| `task_id` | string | `easy`, `medium`, or `hard` |
+| `difficulty` | string | Same as `task_id` |
+| `task_description` | string | What the agent should do |
+| `attempt_number` | int | Current attempt (0 = just reset) |
+| `max_attempts` | int | Maximum allowed attempts (5) |
+| `feedback` | string | Detailed grader feedback from last attempt |
+| `hint` | string | Appears after 2+ failed attempts |
+| `reference_data` | string | Purchase order data (hard task only) |
+
+---
+
+## Action Space
+
+| Field | Type | Required | Description |
+|-------|------|----------|-------------|
+| `extracted_data` | JSON object | Yes | Structured invoice data (format depends on task) |
+| `explanation` | string | No | Agent reasoning (optional) |
+
+### Expected `extracted_data` format by task:
+
+**Easy:**
+```json
+{
+    "vendor": "Acme Corp",
+    "date": "2024-06-15",
+    "currency": "USD",
+    "total": 1249.95,
+    "line_items": [
+        {"description": "Laptop Computer", "qty": 1, "unit_price": 1099.99, "amount": 1099.99},
+        {"description": "Wireless Mouse", "qty": 5, "unit_price": 29.99, "amount": 149.95}
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+**Medium:**
+```json
+{
+    "invoices": [
+        {"vendor": "...", "date": "YYYY-MM-DD", "currency": "USD", "total": 0.0, "line_items": [...]}
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+**Hard:**
+```json
+{
+    "invoices": [...],
+    "discrepancies": [
+        {"invoice_idx": 0, "type": "overcharge", "item_description": "Laptop Computer", "detail": "Invoice price 1199.99 vs PO price 1099.99"}
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Reward Function
+
+Rewards are provided at **every step** (not just terminal), giving agents a rich training signal.
+
+### Easy Task Scoring (0.0–1.0)
+
+| Component | Weight | Condition |
+|-----------|--------|-----------|
+| Vendor name | 0.15 | Exact match (case-insensitive) |
+| Date | 0.10 | Exact match (YYYY-MM-DD) |
+| Currency | 0.05 | Exact match (3-letter code) |
+| Total | 0.20 | Within ±0.01 |
+| Line items | 0.50 | Per-item matching on description, qty, unit_price, amount |
+
+### Medium Task Scoring
+
+Average of per-invoice scores using the Easy grading rubric across the full batch.
+
+### Hard Task Scoring
+
+| Component | Weight |
+|-----------|--------|
+| Extraction + Cleaning | 60% (same as Medium grading) |
+| Discrepancy Detection | 40% (precision + recall of flagged discrepancies) |
+
+### Attempt Penalty
+
+If all 5 attempts are exhausted without reaching 95% score, a **0.85× multiplier** is applied to the final reward.
+
+---
+
+## Setup and Usage
+
+### Local Development
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone <your-repo-url>
+cd invoice_processing_pipeline
+
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+# Start the server
+uvicorn server.app:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 7860 --reload
+
+# Test with curl
+curl http://localhost:7860/health
+curl -X POST http://localhost:7860/reset -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"task_id": "easy"}'
+```
+
+### Docker
+
+```bash
+docker build -t invoice-env .
+docker run -p 7860:7860 invoice-env
+```
+
+### Running the Baseline
+
+```bash
+export HF_TOKEN=your_token_here
+export API_BASE_URL=https://router.huggingface.co/v1
+export MODEL_NAME=Qwen/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct
+export ENV_URL=http://localhost:7860
+
+python inference.py
+```
+
+### Python Client
+
+```python
+from client import InvoiceEnvClient
+
+with InvoiceEnvClient("http://localhost:7860") as env:
+    result = env.reset(task_id="easy")
+    print(result["observation"]["raw_text"])
+
+    result = env.step({
+        "vendor": "Acme Corp",
+        "date": "2024-06-15",
+        "currency": "USD",
+        "total": 1249.95,
+        "line_items": [...]
+    })
+    print(f"Score: {result['reward']}")
+    print(f"Feedback: {result['observation']['feedback']}")
+```
+
+---
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+| Endpoint | Method | Description |
+|----------|--------|-------------|
+| `/reset` | POST | Start a new episode (`{"task_id": "easy\|medium\|hard"}`) |
+| `/step` | POST | Submit extracted data, get reward + feedback |
+| `/state` | GET | Get current episode metadata |
+| `/tasks` | GET | List all tasks with schemas |
+| `/grader` | POST | Score a submission without modifying state |
+| `/health` | GET | Health check |
+| `/docs` | GET | Swagger API docs |
+
+---
+
+## Baseline Scores
+
+| Agent | Easy | Medium | Hard | Average |
+|-------|------|--------|------|---------|
+| Oracle (ground truth) | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 |
+| Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct | ~0.90 | ~0.65 | ~0.45 | ~0.67 |
+| Random (empty JSON) | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 |
+
+*Scores are approximate and may vary due to random invoice generation.*
+
+---
+
+## Design Decisions
+
+- **Synthetic data generation**: Every episode creates fresh invoices, preventing memorisation and ensuring reproducibility via random seeds.
+- **Partial credit at every step**: The grader scores each component independently (vendor, date, line items, etc.), giving agents fine-grained reward signal.
+- **Progressive difficulty**: Easy tests pure extraction, Medium adds data quality issues, Hard adds cross-document reasoning.
+- **Realistic noise**: Vendor typos, date format variations, and currency symbol mixing are modelled after actual OCR and data entry errors.
+- **Attempt-based penalty**: Encourages agents to get it right early rather than brute-forcing over many attempts.
