One staff directory from HR and IT

The request

The task request supplied to the adapter, alongside the workspace below. Runtime instructions, authorized tools and skills also affect the system. Containerized runs withhold host-side references; local mode is not an isolation boundary.

Colleen needs the staff directory for the new website, put together from the HR export and IT's Google user list. Her note has the rules - save it as directory.csv.

Workspace

  • google_workspace_users.csv
  • hr_employee_export_2026-09-10.csv
  • note_from_colleen.txt

Expected deliverables

  • directory.csv

Recorded acceptance checks

The table uses check names and outcomes from the frozen campaign ledger. Acceptance requires all required predicates to pass; a predicate may itself contain a tolerance or coverage threshold. Its scope is part of the measurement contract.
