What problem does it solve?
This skill eliminates the guesswork of measuring Claude Code agent performance by providing a standardized, structured framework to define success criteria, track regressions, and quantify reliability across development cycles and model versions.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Eval-Driven Development (EDD) Workflow: Implements a full define-implement-evaluate-report cycle to treat AI performance testing like unit tests for traditional software.
- Capability & Regression Testing: Supports both capability evals (testing new agent features) and regression evals (ensuring existing functionality remains intact after changes).
- Reliability Metrics Tracking: Built-in support for pass@k and pass^k metrics to measure agent consistency and catch performance drift over time.
- Use Case Example: Use this skill to set up a test suite for a new Claude Code prompt, define pass/fail criteria before implementation, and automatically track if future changes break existing functionality.
Quick Start
Use the eval-harness skill to define evaluation criteria for your new Claude Code workflow and generate a baseline performance report.
