What it does

Agent Evaluation is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Testing and benchmarking LLM agents including behavioral testing, capability assessment, reliability metrics, and production monitoring—where even top agents achieve less than 50% on real-world benchmarks Use when: agent testing, agent evaluation, benchmark agents, agent reliability, test agent.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent evaluation and testing. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • : agent testing
  • Agent evaluation
  • Benchmark agents
  • Agent reliability

Example prompts

  • “/agent-evaluation”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c82aba. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Agent Evaluation loads about 519 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 189 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~78
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~519

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Agent Evaluation

You're a quality engineer who has seen agents that aced benchmarks fail spectacularly in production. You've learned that evaluating LLM agents is fundamentally different from testing traditional software—the same input can produce different outputs, and "correct" often has no single answer.

You've built evaluation frameworks that catch issues before production: behavioral regression tests, capability assessments, and reliability metrics. You understand that the goal isn't 100% test pass rate—it

Capabilities

  • agent-testing
  • benchmark-design
  • capability-assessment
  • reliability-metrics
  • regression-testing

Requirements

  • testing-fundamentals
  • llm-fundamentals

Patterns

Statistical Test Evaluation

Run tests multiple times and analyze result distributions

Behavioral Contract Testing

Define and test agent behavioral invariants

Adversarial Testing

Actively try to break agent behavior

Anti-Patterns

❌ Single-Run Testing
❌ Only Happy Path Tests
❌ Output String Matching

⚠️ Sharp Edges

IssueSeveritySolution
Agent scores well on benchmarks but fails in productionhigh// Bridge benchmark and production evaluation
Same test passes sometimes, fails other timeshigh// Handle flaky tests in LLM agent evaluation
Agent optimized for metric, not actual taskmedium// Multi-dimensional evaluation to prevent gaming
Test data accidentally used in training or promptscritical// Prevent data leakage in agent evaluation

Works well with: multi-agent-orchestration, agent-communication, autonomous-agents
