/dev:dry-run
Smoke-test the evolve pipeline. Two modes depending on whether LANGSMITH_API_KEY is available.

EVOLVER_PY="${EVOLVER_PY:-$([ -f "$HOME/.evolver/venv/bin/python" ] && echo "$HOME/.evolver/venv/bin/python" || echo "python3")}"
Check: Online or Offline?

Offline Mode (no API key)
Validate tool syntax and argparse consistency:
echo "=== Tool Syntax Check ==="
for f in $TOOLS/*.py; do
python3 -c "import ast; ast.parse(open('$f').read())" 2>&1
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "OK: $(basename $f)"; else echo "FAIL: $(basename $f)"; fi
done
echo ""
echo "=== Argparse Flags Check ==="
for f in $TOOLS/*.py; do
$EVOLVER_PY "$f" --help > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "OK: $(basename $f) --help"; else echo "FAIL: $(basename $f) --help"; fi
done
echo ""
echo "=== Skill Cross-Reference Check ==="
for TOOL in $(grep -oh '\$TOOLS/[a-z_]*.py' skills/evolve/SKILL.md | sed 's/\$TOOLS\///' | sort -u); do
if [ -f "$TOOLS/$TOOL" ]; then
echo "OK: $TOOL referenced and exists"
else
echo "FAIL: $TOOL referenced in evolve skill but not found"
fi
done
Online Mode (with API key)
Run the full pipeline with a mock agent:
1. Create temp directory with mock agent
TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d)
cat > "$TMPDIR/agent.py" << 'PYEOF'
import json, sys
input_path = sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) > 1 else None
if input_path:
with open(input_path) as f:
data = json.load(f)
question = data.get("input", data.get("question", ""))
print(json.dumps({"output": f"Mock answer to: {question}"}))
else:
print(json.dumps({"output": "No input provided"}))
PYEOF
cat > "$TMPDIR/test_inputs.json" << 'JSONEOF'
[
{"input": "What is 2+2?"},
{"input": "Name a color"},
{"input": "What is Python?"}
]
JSONEOF
echo "Mock agent created at $TMPDIR"
2. Run setup
$EVOLVER_PY $TOOLS/setup.py \
--project-name "dry-run-test" \
--entry-point "python3 $TMPDIR/agent.py {input}" \
--framework "unknown" \
--goals "accuracy" \
--dataset-from-file "$TMPDIR/test_inputs.json" \
--output "$TMPDIR/.evolver.json"
3. Run eval
$EVOLVER_PY $TOOLS/run_eval.py \
--config "$TMPDIR/.evolver.json" \
--worktree-path "$TMPDIR" \
--experiment-prefix "dry-run-v001a"
4. Read results
$EVOLVER_PY $TOOLS/read_results.py \
--experiment "dry-run-v001a" \
--config "$TMPDIR/.evolver.json" \
--format markdown
5. Trace insights
$EVOLVER_PY $TOOLS/trace_insights.py \
--from-experiment "dry-run-v001a" \
--output "$TMPDIR/trace_insights.json"
6. Cleanup
rm -rf "$TMPDIR"
echo "Dry run complete. Temp files cleaned up."
