SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of comparing the performance of multiple models on the same task, ensuring a fair and thorough evaluation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-Model Comparison: Conduct controlled bake-offs among various models to compare their performance.
  • Task-Based Evaluation: Ensure models diagnose, plan, execute, and score the same change in isolated environments.
  • Objective & Subjective Scoring: Use both objective metrics (e.g., typecheck, build, test) and subjective evaluation (code quality, intent fidelity) to score model performance.
  • Merge & Grafting: Merge the best outcomes from each model, while also incorporating improvements from other models.

Quick Start

To initiate a model bake-off, use the command: `model-bakeoff run --models "opus", "sonnet", "gpt-5.5" --task "refactor feature X" --branch "experiment" --judge "Fable" --metric "typecheck + build + test + betterer" --threshold 80%.

FAQPage Schema
How do I compare multiple AI models on the same coding task?

To compare multiple AI models, you run a controlled bake-off where each model diagnoses, plans, and executes the same change in isolated worktrees. Performance is then scored against predefined metrics like typecheck, build, and test results.

Can I use both objective metrics and subjective criteria for AI model evaluation?

Yes, AI model evaluation can use both objective metrics (typecheck, build, test) and subjective criteria (code quality, intent fidelity). This dual-scoring approach ensures a fair and thorough assessment of each model's performance on the task.

What is the best way to benchmark code changes from different models?

The best way to benchmark code changes is to execute a multi-model comparison in isolated environments. This ensures models perform the same task under identical conditions, allowing you to accurately score their performance against a defined threshold.

How do I merge the best code changes from different models after a performance benchmark?

After a performance benchmark, you can merge the best outcomes from the winning model while grafting improvements from other models. This allows you to synthesize the highest quality code from the entire evaluation.

Do I need agents and orchestrators to run a multi-model bake-off?

Yes, you need agents and orchestrators to run a multi-model bake-off. They are required to manage the isolated worktrees and coordinate the scoring process across the different models being evaluated.

How does task-specific model selection work with code review?

Task-specific model selection works by evaluating model performance on identical tasks using predefined metrics and subjective code review criteria. You can set a specific threshold, like 80%, to identify which model handles the task best.
