It carries case information and actions across stages rather than evaluating isolated legal tasks. The team also introduced LongJud-Bench to evaluate agent capabilities across connected stages.</p> <h2 id="my-contributions">My contributions</h2> <p><strong>Collaborative research / co-author (third author, listed as Tao Chiang) / frontend development and research support</strong></p> <p>My primary responsibility in LegalWorld was frontend development and interaction design, turning legal-agent case workflows into an interface that users can operate, observe, and participate in. My work covered character dialogue, player-lawyer input, document and courtroom workbenches, and visualization of tools, skills, memory, and case progress. I also contributed to the human-evaluation system and data organization, frontend–backend integration, and deployment maintenance. In addition, I created public-facing pages, recorded demonstrations, and project introduction videos to support research validation and presentation.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Frontend and interaction design</strong>: Built line-by-line character dialogue, player-lawyer input, document and courtroom workbenches, case debriefing, and onboarding so users can read, respond, and complete tasks within the case workflow.</li> <li><strong>Runtime visualization</strong>: Presented agent tools, skills, and memory states, using the town radar and case-stage displays to help users understand the current workflow and character actions.</li> <li><strong>Human evaluation and research support</strong>: Contributed to the evaluation workbench, case assignment, and score-submission workflows, and supported evaluation-data export, organization, and reconciliation.</li> <li><strong>System integration and project presentation</strong>: Contributed to frontend–backend integration and deployment maintenance, and created the public landing page, recorded demonstrations, and project introduction videos to support system use and research presentation.</li> </ul> <h2 id="interface-showcase">Interface showcase</h2> <p>These frontend demonstrations were captured during development. They retain the names and Chinese interface text of an early version and do not represent the latest live system.</p> <figure><img src="https://dylanchiang-dev.github.io/project/legalworld/featured.png" alt="An early LegalWorld frontend demonstration showing character dialogue, tool and skill panels, case stages, and the town radar."><figcaption> <p>Main interface: character dialogue, tool and skill panels, and case-progress visualization in an early-version demonstration.</p> </figcaption> </figure> <figure><img src="https://dylanchiang-dev.github.io/project/legalworld/court-workbench.png" alt="An early LegalWorld courtroom workbench demonstration, with a sample case and response prompts on the left and an input area for the user&#39;s courtroom statement on the right."><figcaption> <p>Courtroom workbench: sample-case context, response prompts, and user statements in one interface, shown in an early-version demonstration.</p> </figcaption> </figure> <h2 id="related-resources">Related resources</h2> <ul> <li> </li> <li> </li> <li> </li> <li> </li> <li> </li> </ul>
