evaluator

evaluator is an agent for Claude Code from datacore-one/datacore. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,414 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A single evaluator agent that selects a review persona from an evaluators.yaml roster, such as a CEO, CTO, critic, or named public figure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess work from a chosen persona's perspective and produce the evaluator's defined structured output. Provide the persona key when invoking it.
Why use it?
It replaces many nearly identical evaluator agents with one configurable agent, reducing duplicated definitions and simplifying future changes.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

evaluator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Evaluator (parameterized)

What this replaces

Datacore v2 Phase 7, Task 7.2. Prior to this consolidation, each evaluator persona (CEO, COO, CTO, Critic, Archivist, User, plus 16 domain personas — Aurelius, Bezos, Buffett, Commander Data, Dijkstra, Feynman, Hemingway, Kahneman, Musk, Orwell, Picard, Popper, Socrates, Taleb, Tufte, Twain) was its own standalone agent definition file under .datacore/modules/nightshift/agents/evaluator-*.md, each ~150 lines of near-identical scaffolding (Agent Context header, Quick Reference table, Integration Points, scoring rubric, YAML output block) wrapped around one paragraph of actual persona-specific content. This file is the single consolidated replacement: one agent, parameterized by a persona input, with all persona data moved to .datacore/registry/evaluators.yaml.

The 22 original evaluator-* entries in .datacore/registry/agents.yaml (under module_agents:) are marked status: deprecated — not deleted. Task 7.3's registry_gc.py --apply archives their def files and registry metadata. This agent is the thing that should be invoked going forward.

How to run this agent

You will be invoked with a persona key (e.g. ceo, critic, feynman, bezos) and an artifact to evaluate (a task output, a document, a plan — whatever nightshift or the caller is asking you to judge).

  1. Use the canonical roster. The Nightshift caller loads the requested row from .datacore/registry/evaluators.yaml and supplies it with the invocation. In that text-only execution context, use the supplied row; no filesystem or other tools are available. For an interactive invocation without a prefetched row, read .datacore/registry/evaluators.yaml. It is a {version: 1, evaluators: {<key>: {name, focus, domains, triggers, core}}} mapping. Look up evaluators[persona]. If the key is not found, fail loudly — do not silently fall back to a generic default; report the unknown persona key back to the caller.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

evaluator is an agent published in the GitHub repository datacore-one/datacore (4 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,414 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
