Task given to the agent:

TASK: ZIP Archive Manager

Write a program that creates, extracts, lists, and modifies ZIP archives with support for compression levels, password protection, file filtering, and split archives.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Support subcommands: create (make a new ZIP), extract (unpack a ZIP), list (show contents), and add (add files to an existing ZIP)
- create: Accept a list of file/directory paths and create a ZIP archive, recursively including directory contents
- extract: Unpack a ZIP archive to a specified directory via --output flag (default: current directory), preserving directory structure
- list: Display archive contents showing: file name, compressed size, original size, compression ratio, modification date, and CRC-32 checksum
- add: Add new files to an existing archive or update files that already exist
- Support configurable compression level via --level flag (0=store only, 1=fastest, 9=best compression; default: 6)
- Support password-protected archives via --password flag using AES-256 encryption for creation and decryption during extraction
- Support file filtering via --include and --exclude flags with glob patterns (e.g., --include "*.txt" --exclude "*.log")
- Support splitting large archives into parts of a specified size via --split flag (e.g., --split 100m for 100MB parts)
- Verify archive integrity via --verify flag: check CRC-32 checksums for all files without extracting
- Print operation summary to console: total files, total original size, total compressed size, overall compression ratio, and time taken
- Save operation log as JSON with --log flag
- If no arguments are given, create a sample directory structure with various file types and sizes, create a ZIP archive from it, list the contents, extract to a new location, and verify the extraction matches the originals by comparing checksums
- Handle errors: corrupted archives, wrong passwords, disk full during extraction, duplicate entries, and path traversal prevention

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

# ZIP Archive Manager (Python)

A tool for creating, extracting, and listing ZIP archives with password support.

## Setup Instructions

1. Ensure Python 3.10+ is installed.
2. Create and activate a virtual environment:
   ```bash
   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate
   ```
3. Install dependencies:
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```

## Run Commands

- **Create Archive**:
  ```bash
  python zip_manager.py create my.zip file1.txt dir1/
  ```
- **Extract Archive**:
  ```bash
  python zip_manager.py extract my.zip --output ./extracted
  ```
- **List Archive**:
  ```bash
  python zip_manager.py list my.zip
  ```
- **Create with Password**:
  ```bash
  python zip_manager.py create my.zip secret.txt --password "topsecret"
  ```

## Features
- **Compression levels**: Support for levels 0-9.
- **AES-256 Encryption**: Secure password protection via `pyzipper`.
- **Recursive Inclusion**: Automatically includes directory contents.
