eval-harness

eval-harness is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from majiang213/OpenClaw-MAS. It costs 19 tokens per session (1,647 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of eval-harness, MIT.

A framework for evaluating AI coding sessions by defining expected behavior, pass/fail criteria, and repeatable checks before implementation. EDD, or eval-driven development, treats these evaluations like tests for an AI system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define capability and regression evaluations, measure pass@k reliability, compare model versions, and run checks throughout development.
Why use it?
It helps reveal whether an AI workflow can complete a task reliably and whether later changes introduce regressions.

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-harness 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 5d 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 Harness Skill

A formal evaluation framework for Claude Code sessions, implementing eval-driven development (EDD) principles.

When to Activate

  • Setting up eval-driven development (EDD) for AI-assisted workflows
  • Defining pass/fail criteria for Claude Code task completion
  • Measuring agent reliability with pass@k metrics
  • Creating regression test suites for prompt or agent changes
  • Benchmarking agent performance across model versions

Philosophy

Eval-Driven Development treats evals as the "unit tests of AI development":

  • Define expected behavior BEFORE implementation
  • Run evals continuously during development
  • Track regressions with each change
  • Use pass@k metrics for reliability measurement

Eval Types

Capability Evals

Test if Claude can do something it couldn't before:

[CAPABILITY EVAL: feature-name]
Task: Description of what Claude should accomplish
Success Criteria:
  - [ ] Criterion 1
  - [ ] Criterion 2
  - [ ] Criterion 3
Expected Output: Description of expected result

Regression Evals

Ensure changes don't break existing functionality:

[REGRESSION EVAL: feature-name]
Baseline: SHA or checkpoint name
Tests:
  - existing-test-1: PASS/FAIL
  - existing-test-2: PASS/FAIL
  - existing-test-3: PASS/FAIL
Result: X/Y passed (previously Y/Y)

Grader Types

1. Code-Based Grader

Deterministic checks using code:

# Check if file contains expected pattern
grep -q "export function handleAuth" src/auth.ts && echo "PASS" || echo "FAIL"

# Check if tests pass
npm test -- --testPathPattern="auth" && echo "PASS" || echo "FAIL"

# Check if build succeeds
npm run build && echo "PASS" || echo "FAIL"

2. Model-Based Grader

Use Claude to evaluate open-ended outputs:

[MODEL GRADER PROMPT]
Evaluate the following code change:
1. Does it solve the stated problem?
2. Is it well-structured?
3. Are edge cases handled?
4. Is error handling appropriate?

Score: 1-5 (1=poor, 5=excellent)
Reasoning: [explanation]

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.
