"""The pure-Python ContextBench runner. The runner owns the turn protocol so an agent does not have to. It delivers one operation per user turn, advances only on a standalone readiness marker, refuses an early submit, enforces the budget wall on the agent's own reported context, snapshots that context after every turn, and grades the run at the end. The invariant the runner exists to hold: an operation enters the agent's context as a user message appended by the runner, before the agent can act on it. The agent controls only *when* the next operation arrives, never its content or its route into the context.
