Trenches - JERRY(Jerry needs to be removed from host) & Alazar

Trenches is a multi-agent geopolitical crisis simulator and command interface built around six separately finetuned Qwen/Qwen3-8B models representing the US, Israel, Iran, Hezbollah, the Gulf, and an Oversight entity, all operating inside a shared fog-of-war world. Training was done by collecting historically aligned data from 2025-01-01 to 2026-01-01 using GDELT and entity-relevant source feeds, formatting it into the same structured observation/output schemas used at runtime, and post-training each model with Hugging Face TRL and GRPO on top of an OpenEnv-compatible environment, with the serious runs executed on Modal. The final inference stack serves one model per entity on Modal L40 GPUs, with checkpoints stored under @AlazarM on Hugging Face, and the overall result is a live, replayable simulation where doctrine-specific agents take structured actions, predict outcomes, and interact through a stateful world rather than a simple chat interface.
