diff-eval-local

name	diff-eval-local
description	Evaluate agent-generated code against ground truth diff and handwritten file list. Prefer reading GT inputs directly from base_repo via experiment metadata. Trigger on "/diff-eval-local", "evaluate diff", "eval experiment".
argument-hint	<repo-path> [gt-diff] [hw-files] [prompt-file]

Diff Eval Local: Agent Code Evaluation

Evaluate agent-generated code against a ground truth diff, using a handwritten file list to scope scoring.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
repo-path	Yes	Path to repo with agent-generated changes
gt-diff	No	Path to ground truth .diff or .patch file. If omitted, resolve base_repo/<task>/eval/gt_diff.patch from repo metadata.
hw-files	No	Path to handwritten_files.txt (one file per line). If omitted, resolve base_repo/<task>/eval/handwritten_files.txt from repo metadata.
prompt-file	No	Path to requirements/prompt .md file

Usage

# Preferred in this repo: pass only the experiment repo path.
# GT diff / HW files are read from base_repo via run_metadata.json or experiment_meta.json.
/diff-eval-local experiment/T19-claude-opus-max-long-2026-04-14

# Basic usage
/diff-eval-local <repo> <gt.diff> <hw-files.txt>

# With prompt file
/diff-eval-local <repo> <gt.diff> <hw-files.txt> <prompt.md>

# Example
/diff-eval-local \
  experiment/K3-codex-gpt-5_4-long-2026-04-12 \
  base_repo/K3/eval/gt_diff.patch \
  base_repo/K3/eval/handwritten_files.txt \
  base_repo/K3/prompts/K3-long.md

Parameter Parsing

Parse arguments by pattern:

• Path ending in .diff or .patch → GT diff
• Path containing handwritten or hw → HW file list
• Path ending in .md → prompt/requirements
• Other path (usually first) → repo path

CRITICAL Rules

1. All git commands MUST use git -C <REPO_PATH>
2. File/function coverage MUST use deterministic bash set operations, NOT LLM judgment
3. B score is relative to HANDWRITTEN files only

Workflow

Step 1: Gather Inputs

1a. Read Handwritten Files (Authoritative Scoring Scope)

echo "=== Handwritten Files ==="
cat "$HW_FILES"
HW_COUNT=$(wc -l < "$HW_FILES" | tr -d ' ')
echo ""
echo "Total: $HW_COUNT files"

1b. Extract Generated Patch

echo "=== Generated Changes ==="
git -C "$REPO_PATH" diff HEAD --stat

echo "=== Untracked Files ==="
git -C "$REPO_PATH" ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep -v '^\.' | head -20

# Full generated file list
{ git -C "$REPO_PATH" diff HEAD --name-only; git -C "$REPO_PATH" ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep -v '^\.' ; } | sort -u

Full diff (tracked + untracked):

# Tracked changes
git -C "$REPO_PATH" diff HEAD

# Untracked as unified diff
while IFS= read -r f; do
  [ -f "$REPO_PATH/$f" ] || continue
  echo "diff --git a/$f b/$f"
  echo "new file mode 100644"
  echo "--- /dev/null"
  echo "+++ b/$f"
  lines=$(wc -l < "$REPO_PATH/$f")
  echo "@@ -0,0 +1,$lines @@"
  sed 's/^/+/' "$REPO_PATH/$f"
done < <(git -C "$REPO_PATH" ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep -v '^\.')

1c. Read Ground Truth Diff

GT diff should be read directly from base_repo/<task>/eval/gt_diff.patch when evaluating this repository. Do not try to reconstruct it from the experiment repo.

echo "=== GT Diff Stats ==="
echo "Files: $(grep -c '^diff --git' "$GT_DIFF")"

# List GT files
grep '^diff --git' "$GT_DIFF" | sed 's|^diff --git a/.* b/||' | head -20

1d. Read Requirements (if provided)

if [[ -n "$PROMPT_FILE" ]] && [[ -f "$PROMPT_FILE" ]]; then
  echo "=== Requirements ==="
  cat "$PROMPT_FILE"
fi

Step 2: Deterministic File Coverage (MUST use bash)

EVAL_DIR=$(mktemp -d /tmp/diff-eval-XXXXXX)

# HW files (sorted)
LC_ALL=C sort "$HW_FILES" > "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt"

# Generated files (sorted)
{ git -C "$REPO_PATH" diff HEAD --name-only; git -C "$REPO_PATH" ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep -v '^\.' ; } | LC_ALL=C sort -u > "$EVAL_DIR/gen.txt"

echo "=== Deterministic File Coverage ==="

TOTAL=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" | tr -d ' ')
GEN_COUNT=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/gen.txt" | tr -d ' ')

echo "HW files: $TOTAL"
echo "Generated files: $GEN_COUNT"

# Intersection
LC_ALL=C comm -12 "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen.txt" > "$EVAL_DIR/covered.txt"
COVERED=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/covered.txt" | tr -d ' ')

echo ""
echo "Covered HW files ($COVERED):"
cat "$EVAL_DIR/covered.txt"

# Missing
LC_ALL=C comm -23 "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen.txt" > "$EVAL_DIR/missing.txt"
MISSING=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/missing.txt" | tr -d ' ')

echo ""
echo "Missing HW files ($MISSING):"
cat "$EVAL_DIR/missing.txt"

# Extra (not in HW)
echo ""
echo "Extra files (first 10):"
LC_ALL=C comm -13 "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen.txt" | head -10

echo ""
if [[ $TOTAL -gt 0 ]]; then
  PCT=$(echo "scale=1; $COVERED * 100 / $TOTAL" | bc)
  echo "**HW File Coverage: $COVERED/$TOTAL = $PCT%**"
else
  echo "**HW File Coverage: 0/0 = N/A**"
fi

# Save for later
echo "$EVAL_DIR" > /tmp/diff-eval-dir.txt

Step 3: Function-Level Coverage (MUST use bash)

EVAL_DIR=$(cat /tmp/diff-eval-dir.txt)

# GT functions (file :: context)
awk '
  /^diff --git/ { match($0, / b\/(.+)$/, m); file = m[1] }
  /^@@.*@@/ { ctx = $0; sub(/^@@[^@]*@@ ?/, "", ctx); if (ctx != "") print file " :: " ctx }
' "$GT_DIFF" | LC_ALL=C sort -u > "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func.txt"

# Gen functions
{ git -C "$REPO_PATH" diff HEAD; while IFS= read -r f; do [ -f "$REPO_PATH/$f" ] || continue; echo "diff --git a/$f b/$f"; echo "--- /dev/null"; echo "+++ b/$f"; wc -l < "$REPO_PATH/$f" | xargs -I{} echo "@@ -0,0 +1,{} @@"; sed 's/^/+/' "$REPO_PATH/$f"; done < <(git -C "$REPO_PATH" ls-files --others --exclude-standard | grep -v '^\.' ) ; } | awk '
  /^diff --git/ { match($0, / b\/(.+)$/, m); file = m[1] }
  /^@@.*@@/ { ctx = $0; sub(/^@@[^@]*@@ ?/, "", ctx); if (ctx != "") print file " :: " ctx }
' | LC_ALL=C sort -u > "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func.txt"

# Filter to HW files only
awk -F ' :: ' 'NR==FNR {f[$1]; next} ($1 in f)' "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func.txt" > "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func-hw.txt"
awk -F ' :: ' 'NR==FNR {f[$1]; next} ($1 in f)' "$EVAL_DIR/hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func.txt" > "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func-hw.txt"

echo "=== Function Coverage (HW files) ==="
GT_F=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func-hw.txt" | tr -d ' ')
GEN_F=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func-hw.txt" | tr -d ' ')
echo "GT functions: $GT_F"
echo "Gen functions: $GEN_F"

# Intersection
LC_ALL=C comm -12 "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func-hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func-hw.txt" > "$EVAL_DIR/func-covered.txt"
COVERED_F=$(wc -l < "$EVAL_DIR/func-covered.txt" | tr -d ' ')

echo ""
echo "Covered functions:"
cat "$EVAL_DIR/func-covered.txt" | head -15

echo ""
echo "Missing functions:"
LC_ALL=C comm -23 "$EVAL_DIR/gt-func-hw.txt" "$EVAL_DIR/gen-func-hw.txt" | head -15

echo ""
if [[ $GT_F -gt 0 ]]; then
  PCT_F=$(echo "scale=1; $COVERED_F * 100 / $GT_F" | bc)
  echo "**Function Coverage: $COVERED_F/$GT_F = $PCT_F%**"
else
  echo "**Function Coverage: N/A**"
fi

Step 4: Semantic Analysis

4a. Requirements Checklist

If prompt provided, decompose into discrete items. Check against GT and generated.

4b. File Comparison

For each covered HW file: compare approach, scope, missing/extra logic.

4c. Test Gap

Compare test files in GT vs generated.

Step 5: Scoring

Read references/scoring_rubric.md.

Score	Criteria
A (0-5)	Functional Correctness
B (0-5)	Completeness (HW files only)
C (0-5)	Behavioral Equivalence to GT

Verdict rules:

• PASS: A≥4 AND B≥4 AND C≥3
• FAIL: A≤1 OR destructive
• PARTIAL: otherwise

Step 6: Save Report

Save to <REPO_PATH>/eval_report.md:

## Evaluation Report

### Summary
[1-3 sentences]

### Verdict: [PASS / PARTIAL / FAIL]

### Scores
- **A. Functional Correctness**: [X]/5 — [justification]
- **B. Completeness**: [X]/5 — [justification, HW scope]
- **C. Behavioral Equivalence**: [X]/5 — [justification]

### Deterministic Coverage

#### HW File Coverage: [X]/[Y] = [Z]%
| File | Status |
|------|--------|
| file1.go | ✓ Covered |
| file2.go | ✗ Missing |

#### Function Coverage: [X]/[Y] = [Z]%

### Requirements Checklist
| # | Requirement | GT | Gen | Status |
|---|-------------|:--:|:---:|--------|

### Analysis
- Approach differences
- Missing logic
- Test gaps

### Confidence: [0.0-1.0]
