Evaluate one or more traces against an existing Truesight live evaluation. Use when a deployed live evaluation already exists and the user wants run outputs with optional handoff to review and promotion.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
12 rules. About 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 6 are very specific to this project.

This author's own choices. Worth a look.

Use deterministic trace ordering and log run_id for each input.

If a scope error occurs, ask the user to create an API key with the missing scope in Truesight Settings.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Evaluate Trace
Use this skill when the user wants to evaluate traces with an existing live evaluation endpoint.
Interactive Q&A protocol (mandatory)
<HARD-GATE>
BEFORE the first scoping question, search for a structured question tool (e.g., `AskUserQuestion` or similar interactive widget) and load it. Use that tool for EVERY scoping question. Fall back to plain-text lettered options ONLY if no such tool exists in the environment.
</HARD-GATE>If context does not make scope clear, ask one question at a time using the structured question tool (loaded per the HARD-GATE above).
Example question structure:
Do you want to evaluate one trace or a batch?
A) One trace now
B) Small batch (up to 25)
C) Full batch loopRules:
- Ask exactly one clarifying question per message.
- Use the structured question tool for every question. Structure each with a short header, 2-4 options with labels and descriptions, and place the recommended option first. Do not add "(Recommended)" or similar annotations to option labels.
- Ask a single follow-up if needed, then proceed.
Workflow
- Identify target live evaluation:
- If live evaluation id is unknown, call
list_live_evaluations. - Select
public_idand verify requiredinput_columns.
- If live evaluation id is unknown, call
- Prepare inputs:
- Ensure
inputskeys exactly matchinput_columns. - Include
media_urlfor multimodal evaluations when needed.
- Ensure
- Execute evaluation:
- Use the
run_evaltool withlive_evaluation_idandinputsfor each trace.
- Use the
- Return useful outputs:
run_id- per-judgment scores/outcomes
- brief interpretation for next action
- Optional handoff:
- If human judgment is needed, route to
review-and-promote-traces.
- If human judgment is needed, route to
Batch mode guidance
- Use deterministic trace ordering and log
run_idfor each input. - Apply retries with stable idempotency context in caller logic if needed.
- Summarize failures by category or threshold, then propose review handoff.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
