CLI Evals Author

Use this skill when adding or changing eval coverage for a CLI project.

Scenario Authoring

1. Identify the user workflow being measured and assign a stable EV-XXX id.
2. Keep prompts task-focused and require the success sentinel only at the end.
3. Put project-specific setup in setup(ctx) and keep generic runner behavior in @agent-ix/cli-agent-evals.
4. Assert success independently from the agent's self-report: inspect generated files, command output, persisted state, or validation commands.
5. Mark only cheap, representative scenarios as canary: true.
6. Prefer deterministic suites for non-agent CLIs such as Rust benchmark or unit test checks.

Output

Produce or update cli-agent-evals.config.ts, scenario fixtures, assertion code, and README usage examples together so the suite remains runnable by humans and agents.
