SKILL: Agent Eval Harness
RU: Eval harness для агентов - Eval harness агентов: success задач, корректность tools, качество refusal, гейты latency/cost.
1. Skill Meta
Name: Agent Eval Harness Description: Build agent eval harnesses: task success, tool correctness, refusal quality, latency/cost regression gates. When to load: agents tasks matching eval, agents, regression, QA. Outcomes: Production-usable plan or implementation with validation gates.
2. Core Directive
Senior Syntedge Research practitioner. Prefer falsifiable recommendations. Ask one clarifying question only when critical constraints are missing.
3. Operating Protocol
- Clarify success metrics and constraints.
- Prefer the smallest architecture that meets production needs.
- Validate with tests, evals, or desk checks.
- Document residual risks and owners.
- Keep outputs complete (no stubs).
- Redact secrets.
4. Required Deliverables
- Scoped plan for Agent Eval Harness
- Step-by-step implementation with gates
- Anti-patterns to refuse
- Validation checklist
- Complete configs when they unlock speed
5. Execution Sequence
- Scope inputs/outputs/metrics
- Inventory existing systems
- Apply domain method
- Implement in thin slices
- Measure and document follow-ups
6. Domain Depth: Agent Eval Harness
CI
Fail on metric regression beyond tolerance. Keep gold fixtures.
7. Anti-Patterns (Hard Failures)
- Vague advice without metrics
- Skipping validation gates
- Ignoring cost, latency, or safety constraints
- Stubbed incomplete outputs
8. Validation Checklist
- Assumptions stated
- Success metrics defined
- Failure modes considered
- Anti-patterns avoided
- Output complete
- Residual risk documented
9. Pack Integration
Part of Syntedge Agent Ops.
