evals-validate

evals-validate is a skill for Claude Code from tikalk/adlc-team-skills. It costs 32 tokens per session (773 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for running and checking the quality of an AI evaluation system. It measures detection accuracy, confidence ranges, response-time limits, test-data coverage, and results on a reserved holdout dataset.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after implementing evaluations, as a release or CI/CD check, or when you need statistical and performance evidence about an evaluation suite.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether evaluation results are trustworthy and fast enough for use. A holdout dataset is kept separate from development so it can provide a less biased final check.

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

evals-validate 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/bash/setup-evals-validate.sh, scripts/powershell/setup-evals-validate.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

evals-validate

What this skill does

Conducts comprehensive validation of the implemented evaluation system following EDD principles to ensure production readiness through statistical analysis, performance verification, and quality assurance.

Output:

  1. Statistical Validation - TPR/TNR analysis, accuracy metrics, confidence intervals
  2. Performance Validation - SLA compliance verification for evaluation pyramid tiers
  3. Quality Assurance - Goldset integrity, example balance, coverage analysis
  4. Holdout Dataset Validation - Unbiased accuracy assessment on reserved test set
  5. Auto-handoff to /evals-analyze for closed loop trajectory analysis

Key EDD Principles Applied:

  • Principle IV: Evaluation Pyramid - Tier performance SLA validation (Tier 1 <30s, Tier 2 <5min)
  • Principle II: Binary Pass/Fail - Statistical compliance verification
  • Principle IX: Test Data as Code - Holdout dataset validation integrity
  • Principle III: Error Analysis - Pattern stability validation

When to use

  • After /evals-implement: Execute the evaluation suite and measure quality
  • CI/CD Pipeline gate: Run evaluations before release to ensure no regressions
  • Periodic audit: Verify evaluator accuracy on holdout data to check for model drift

When NOT to use

  • Evaluator not generated: Run /evals-implement to build grader files first
  • Analysing failure traces: Use /evals-analyze to extract deep insights from run results

Process

User Input

$ARGUMENTS
  • --holdout-only — Validate only on holdout dataset (unbiased validation)
  • --performance-only — Skip statistical analysis, focus on SLA compliance
  • --metrics METRICS — Specific metrics to validate (tpr, tnr, accuracy, performance)

Execution Steps

Phase 1: Execute Evaluations

Runs the underlying framework CLI directly:

  • PromptFoo: npx promptfoo eval --config evals/promptfoo/config.js
  • DeepEval: pytest evals/deepeval/ -v or python evals/deepeval/config.py

Changes

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.
