GZIP Compression Tool (python, written by Codex)

Codex wrote this python project from the task below. It does not run on a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine as written.

Task given to the agent:

TASK: GZIP Compression Tool

Write a program that compresses and decompresses files using the GZIP format with configurable compression levels, integrity verification, and streaming support for large files.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Accept a file path and mode (compress or decompress) as command-line arguments
- Compress files using the DEFLATE algorithm wrapped in GZIP format (.gz extension)
- Support configurable compression level via --level flag (1=fastest, 9=best compression; default: 6)
- Decompress .gz files back to their original content, preserving the original filename stored in the GZIP header
- Process files in streaming chunks to handle files larger than available memory, with configurable buffer size via --buffer flag (default: 64KB)
- Display real-time progress during compression/decompression: percentage complete, current speed, and estimated time remaining
- Verify file integrity after compression by checking CRC-32 checksums stored in the GZIP header via --verify flag
- Support compressing multiple files via --batch flag (each file becomes a separate .gz file)
- Preserve original file timestamps in the GZIP header and restore them during decompression
- Support keeping or removing the original file via --keep flag (default: keep original)
- Print compression summary: original size, compressed size, compression ratio, time taken, and throughput (MB/s)
- Save operation log as JSON with --log flag
- If no input is given, generate sample files of different types (text, CSV, JSON, binary with random data), compress each, compare compression ratios across file types, decompress, and verify integrity matches
- Handle errors: corrupted GZIP files, truncated files, CRC mismatch, disk full, and unsupported GZIP extensions

Create a complete Python project for a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine with only Python 3.10+ installed. Include:
- Source code
- requirements.txt with all dependencies (direct and transitive) pinned to exact versions
- README.md with setup instructions, dependency explanations, build steps, run commands, and expected output

# GZIP Compression Tool (Python)

## Requirements
- Ubuntu 22.04
- Python 3.10+

## Install
```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

No third-party dependencies are required.

## Run
```bash
python src/main.py compress file.txt --level 9 --verify
python src/main.py decompress file.txt.gz --buffer 65536 --no-keep
python src/main.py compress placeholder --batch files.txt --log report.json
```

If no input is provided, sample data is generated and benchmarked.
