eval-setup

eval-setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Galileo-Agent-Labs/eval-engineer. It costs 41 tokens per session (735 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide for preparing a software project for Eval Engineer, a system for evaluating an AI application. It creates or reviews folders and configuration files and identifies the evidence still needed for later investigation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure evaluation folders, record the application type and editable files, define verification commands, and identify needed traces, sessions, logs, experiments, metrics, or Galileo connection details.
Why use it?
It prevents a project from being described as ready for diagnosis when only basic setup is complete. It also keeps existing configuration and evidence intact while making missing inputs visible.

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

eval-setup 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 Setup

Use this skill to make a repo ready for Eval Engineer without pretending it is ready for RCA. Setup is operational: create or review workspace files, identify missing configuration, and tell the user what evidence is still needed.

Do

  • Ensure .galileo/config.yml, .galileo/current/, .galileo/eval-dataset/, .galileo/sessions/, and .galileo/learnings.md exist.
  • Preserve existing files. Do not overwrite user configuration or evidence.
  • Help fill in app type, editable files, blocked files, and verification commands when the user knows them.
  • Explain which evidence is needed next: trace, session, log stream, experiment, metric profile, or verification packet.
  • For live Galileo work, load skills/eval-engineer/references/galileo-live-readiness.md and report the project, evidence source, traces, metrics, scorer/recompute job, and queryable metric status before saying setup is ready.
  • Before creating or accepting local eval evidence, use skills/eval-engineer/references/galileo-integration-intake.md to ask for the required Galileo project, log stream, experiment, session, trace, metric/scorer, time window, or credential confirmation.
  • If the user wants local-only evaluation, record explicit local-only confirmation before creating local packets, scripts, or score reports.

Do Not

  • Do not guess metrics, providers, app type, or production safety requirements.
  • Do not fetch Galileo evidence unless the user provides a URL/ID or asks for /eval-fetch.
  • Do not create .galileo/current/debug-packet.json, verification packets, scripts/evaluate_*, synthetic traces, or local score reports as a substitute for missing Galileo integration inputs.
  • Do not diagnose or fix application behavior during setup.
  • Do not call a Galileo project ready when only the project exists. A ready Galileo source needs a log stream, experiment, session, or trace with records, enabled metrics, completed scoring/recompute, and queryable metric values.
