Can generated environments include information the agent must discover?
Generated environments can separate underlying business state from what an agent initially sees, allowing retrieval, clarification and evidence gathering to become meaningful actions.
**Must the agent receive every relevant record at the start?**
No. A generated environment can maintain a complete underlying state while exposing only the incoming request and the records available through the agent's tools. A retail customer may say that an order should go to their new address without identifying which of several open orders they mean.
**What additional material could be generated?**
MirrorFirm could generate order histories, channel permissions, customer responses and tool results that reveal relevant information when the agent takes an allowed action. A clarification action could return the selected order, while an order lookup could reveal whether it is still amendable.
**How should hidden information be handled?**
Hidden evaluator state should not silently become assumed agent knowledge. Each fact needed for success should have a defined discovery path, or the task should explicitly allow an unresolved outcome. Buyers can request a visibility map showing which role, tool or customer interaction exposes each fact. This makes information access part of the environment design and avoids tasks that appear difficult only because a necessary answer is inaccessible.
Control visibility separately from truth so the environment tests discovery without rewarding unsupported guesses.
