A code-review command that examines code quality and suggests improvements. It can also challenge agreeable conclusions and examine wider effects of proposed changes.

Use it after coding when you want an evaluation of quality, security, accessibility, performance, or other review concerns. Type EVAL or EVALUATE to start it.

It helps find weaknesses and missed consequences after implementation, so improvement does not depend only on the developer’s first review.

eval — Command for Claude Code by JeremyDev87/codingbuddy

Install

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/JeremyDev87/codingbuddy

agentmods

npx agentmods add commands/jeremydev87/codingbuddy/eval

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install codingbuddy, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 6 commands, 4 hooks, 1 MCP server.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00000	$0.03237
Opus 5.5	$0.00000	$0.01295
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00000	$0.00647
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00324

Security

Grade A, and why

eval 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.

EVAL Mode

Purpose

Evaluate code quality and suggest improvements

Mode Availability

Standalone Mode (no MCP server)

This command works without the CodingBuddy MCP server. In standalone mode, you get:

Mode detection and transition
Code quality evaluation
Anti-sycophancy analysis
Devil's Advocate and Impact Radius analysis

MCP Enhanced Mode

With the CodingBuddy MCP server connected, you additionally get:

parse_mode with full context tracking
Specialist agent dispatch for comprehensive evaluation
Contextual checklists (security, accessibility, performance)
Cross-session context persistence

Activation

Invoke via /codingbuddy:eval (namespaced) or the EVAL keyword.

Legacy bare /eval is deprecated. See Migration Guide.

This command activates EVAL mode for the CodingBuddy workflow.

Instructions

Important:

EVAL mode is not automatic after ACT
User must explicitly request EVAL by typing EVAL
Default behavior after ACT: Return to PLAN (without evaluation)
Use EVAL when you want iterative improvement and refinement

Trigger:

Type EVAL after completing ACT
Type EVALUATE (also accepted)
Korean: 평가해 or 개선안 제시해

🔴 Agent Activation (STRICT):

When EVAL is triggered, Code Reviewer Agent (loaded via parse_mode in MCP mode; defaults in standalone mode) MUST be automatically activated
The Agent's evaluation framework and all mandatory requirements MUST be followed
See agent documentation for complete evaluation framework

Purpose: Self-improvement through iterative refinement

What EVAL does (with Code Reviewer Agent):

Analyze Implementation (via Code Reviewer Agent)
- Review what was done in ACT
- Check adherence to project rules
- Verify quality standards met
- 🔴 Required: Follow Code Reviewer Agent's evaluation framework
Assess Quality (via Code Reviewer Agent mandatory perspectives)
- 🔴 Code quality (SOLID, DRY, complexity)
  - Required: When evaluating code quality, reference Code Quality Specialist Agent (dispatched via parse_mode in MCP mode) modes.evaluation framework for SOLID principles, DRY, complexity analysis, and design patterns assessment
- 🔴 Architecture (layer boundaries, dependency direction, type safety)
  - Required: When evaluating architecture, reference Architecture Specialist Agent (dispatched via parse_mode in MCP mode) framework for layer boundaries, dependency direction, and type safety assessment

eval is a command published in the GitHub repository JeremyDev87/codingbuddy (31 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 3,237 tokens. 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 2026-08-30.
