SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the lack of formal testing in AI-assisted development by providing a structured framework to define, run, and report on agent performance using Eval-Driven Development (EDD) principles.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Capability Evals: Define and verify new agent features with clear success criteria.
  • Regression Testing: Ensure new changes do not break existing functionality using baseline comparisons.
  • Multi-Modal Grading: Support for deterministic code-based checks, model-based evaluation of open-ended outputs, and human-in-the-loop review.
  • Use Case: Use this to benchmark a new coding agent's performance across different model versions or to ensure that a complex refactor maintains existing system reliability.

Quick Start

Use the eval-harness skill to define a new capability evaluation for the current feature set.

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement eval-driven development for AI agents?

Eval-driven development for AI agents is implemented by defining pass/fail criteria and regression testing workflows to measure agent reliability using structured evaluation frameworks and pass@k metrics.

What is the best way to benchmark AI agent reliability across model versions?

Benchmarking AI agent reliability involves running structured capability evaluations with deterministic code-based graders and model-based assessments to compare performance across different model versions.

How do I set up regression testing for complex agent refactors?

Regression testing for agent refactors uses baseline comparisons and formal evaluation frameworks to ensure new changes do not break existing functionality or degrade agent performance.

Can I use model-based evaluation for open-ended agent outputs?

Model-based evaluation supports complex task validation for open-ended outputs, complementing deterministic code-based checks and human-in-the-loop review within a multi-modal grading framework.

Does eval-driven development require predefined pass/fail criteria for capability evaluations?

Capability evaluations require clear success criteria defined as pass/fail conditions to formally verify new agent features and measure reliability through structured pass@k metrics.

When should I use human-in-the-loop review instead of deterministic code-based graders?

Human-in-the-loop review is utilized for complex task validation when deterministic code-based graders are insufficient, enabling multi-modal grading within a structured evaluation workflow.
