 "summary": "Start the cozy TUI and give the agent a local task that uses Bash or image viewing.",
 "who": "A developer who wants to try the agent interactively in a terminal before wiring it into anything bigger.",
 "problem": "Setting up an agent harness before seeing it work makes it hard to judge whether it fits a task.",
 "outcome": "A working terminal session where the agent uses its built-in tools and the history can be reviewed.",
 "steps": [
  "`git clone https://github.com/unreallabsai/unreal-agent` (inferred, check the README)",
  "`go build ./cmd/unreal-agent-tui` (inferred, check the README)",
  "Start the built TUI binary in a terminal and open a new session.",
  "Give the agent a small task that needs the Bash tool or the ViewImage tool.",
  "Review the session history to see the tool calls and their results."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the unreal-agent repo at <repo path>, build cmd/unreal-agent-tui and start a session. Give the agent the task <small local task>. Expected output: the agent's answer plus the recorded tool calls in the session. Verify that every tool call shown in the history matches an action you approved.",
