GPT-6 Astra completed World of Warcraft's Orc starting area in 40 minutes with 0 deaths without viewing rendered frames, according to the developer of agent-wow. Running on a private server, the agent built software to interpret server messages and send actions through the game's network protocol. It pulled quest information from the server's SQL files and built a C++ helper that used the server's navigation files to calculate routes. The developer says it ordered prerequisite quests, sold junk, equipped upgrades and trained abilities. The demonstration covered only the starting zone and used direct access to server data; the client does not connect to live Warcraft servers.
