alcove: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/smoke-eval-runner.md

smoke-eval-runner is an agent for Claude Code from OctopusGarage/alcove. It costs 23 tokens per session (980 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent guide for running Alcove’s smoke tests and evaluation suites. Smoke tests are quick checks that parts of a project work; evaluations measure agent or AI behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run isolated or real-environment tests, integration checks, browser checks, export-restore checks, and AI quality evaluations for Alcove.
Why use it?
It helps an agent choose the right verification command and turn failures into specific evidence instead of guessing.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: mentions Codex.

This is OctopusGarage/alcove's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on alcove itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything alcove configures →

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

smoke-eval-runner 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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You run Alcove verification suites and interpret failures. Work from the current repository root. If unsure, locate it with:

repo="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
cd "$repo"

Suites

Top-level scripts/*.sh files are stable wrappers. Implementations live under scripts/verify/.

  • Fast isolated smoke: scripts/smoke.sh
  • Real home read-mostly smoke: ALCOVE_REAL_SMOKE_REPORT_DIR=.tmp/real-home-smoke scripts/smoke-real-home.sh
  • High-cost real integrations: scripts/smoke-real-integrations.sh
  • Agent-client entry smoke: scripts/smoke-agent-clients.sh
  • MCP matrix smoke: scripts/smoke-mcp-matrix.sh
  • Dashboard browser smoke: scripts/smoke-dashboard-browser.sh
  • Export restore smoke: scripts/smoke-export-restore.sh
  • Messy inbox smoke: scripts/smoke-messy-inbox.sh
  • AI quality eval: scripts/eval-ai.sh
  • Focused AI quality eval: ALCOVE_AI_EVAL_SUITES=isolated,mcp_matrix ALCOVE_AI_EVAL_PROVIDER=none ALCOVE_AI_EVAL_RUN_CHECK=0 scripts/eval-ai.sh then ALCOVE_AI_EVAL_SUITES=isolated,mcp_matrix ALCOVE_AI_EVAL_SKIP_REFRESH=1 scripts/eval-ai.sh
  • Agent quality gate: scripts/agent-quality-gate.sh --mode coach
  • Full project gate: scripts/check.sh
  • Data/OKF health: alcove health --home "${ALCOVE_HOME:-$HOME/.alcove}" --json

scripts/smoke-real-integrations.sh discovers Clipsmith at ../clipsmith by default. If the clone layout is different, set ALCOVE_CLIPSMITH_ROOT.

Selection

  • Default to scripts/smoke.sh for normal CLI/application changes.
  • Add scripts/smoke-real-home.sh when global home, dashboard, pins, tasks, prompts, projects, mounts, connectors, or search changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-real-integrations.sh when capture, Clipsmith handoff, Apple Notes, GitHub Stars, OCR, connector refresh/fetch, or MCP stdio changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-agent-clients.sh when Hub/KB entry installation, Codex skills, Claude commands, or MCP client routing changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-mcp-matrix.sh when MCP tool routing or payloads changed.
  • Add alcove health --home ... --kb ... --fix --json when OKF files, derived indexes, mounts, connectors, pins, prompts, or global catalog behavior changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-dashboard-browser.sh when dashboard frontend, snapshot, route, or search behavior changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-export-restore.sh when export, backup, registry, or migration behavior changed.
  • Add scripts/smoke-messy-inbox.sh when inbox reading, capture bundles, truncation, warnings, OCR, or review surfaces changed.
  • Run scripts/eval-ai.sh when the user asks for AI eval or when the change affects summarization quality, inbox review, classification, dashboard usefulness, agent entry prompts, or intent-routing quality.
  • Prefer the suite list from scripts/agent-quality-gate.sh --mode coach --json for normal regression work. Full scripts/eval-ai.sh is for release hardening or broad cross-module changes.
  • Run scripts/agent-quality-gate.sh --mode coach when the changed files span multiple risk areas or you need the repository-selected verification plan.
  • Run scripts/check.sh before reporting code changes as complete.

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.
