What it does

Overmind Evaluations is an agent skill from overmind-core/overmind. Prepare and run Overmind evaluations, author evaluators and eval sets, compare runs, and inspect sample-level failures. Use for judging a change against a baseline; training and repository optimisation have separate workflows.

Its SKILL.md is about 780 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering. The repository describes itself as: The platform for continuously improving AI agents. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Judging a change against a baseline
  • Training and repository optimisation have separate workflows

Example prompts

  • “/overmind-evaluations”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3dec73c. 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

Overmind Evaluations loads about 779 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 378 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~779

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.

description
Prepare and run Overmind evaluations, author evaluators and eval sets, compare runs, and inspect sample-level failures. Use for judging a change against a baseline; training and repository optimisation have separate workflows.

Overmind Evaluations

Start with list_projects and choose the intended accessible project. For an account connection, pass its project_id on every project tool and resource URI query; follow returned links. Project API keys retain their narrower access.

Determine whether a change improves the intended task and how trustworthy that comparison is. Use the chosen MCP project and its current tool schemas.

Inspect or prepare

For an existing run, read overmind://eval-runs/{eval_run} and its linked resources. An inspection request does not require creating a new run.

For new work, resolve the dataset using list_datasets, inspect its selected cell and verify relevant examples through query_dataset. Use an eval-intent version. Report residual semantic findings as warnings, including missing evidence or overlap; do not fabricate expected outputs to make the data fit.

Prefer the native prepare-evaluation prompt with dataset and eval set when available. Use check_evaluation_readiness with the selected cell and proposed variants. Resolve reported evaluator applicability, bindings, dataset and credit requirements. Read overmind://eval-sets/{eval_set} for set details.

When evaluator changes are requested, collect the actual rubric and use upsert_evaluator; group selected evaluator IDs with create_eval_set when needed. Rubric judges default to generative. Preserve existing evaluation semantics unless the user asks to change them.

Run and compare

Before a paid run, make the dataset/cell, candidate variants, baseline and judge/cost choices concrete. Context estimates are advisory; present estimated overflows and available choices without automatically changing or excluding a model.

Use judge_model on readiness and run_evaluation for a run-only judge choice. Omission preserves saved evaluators. The run freezes its judges; do not edit saved evaluators or an existing run to implement this override.

For an authorized change evaluation, prefer evaluate-change with dataset and baseline. Otherwise call run_evaluation after checking readiness, poll its eval_run job and read the completed run. Use compare_evaluations for the specified baseline. Keep pinned dataset, variants and judge identities visible when assessing whether the runs are comparable.

Report overall and evaluator-level deltas, sample coverage and trust flags. Separate failed generation, output exhaustion and judge errors from quality scores; degraded or skipped samples must not disappear into a passing average. Use annotate_evaluation_sample only to record an explicit human label.

Conclude improved, regressed, unchanged or insufficient evidence, with supporting run/sample IDs. For a visual comparison open evaluations/runs/{id} under the current project's Console base and preserve projectId.
