--- name: create-eval description: Redirect to the inspect-evals-template for creating new evaluations. New evals are no longer created in this repository — they live in standalone repos. Use when user asks to create/implement/build a new evaluation. --- # Create Evaluation **New evaluations are no longer created in the `inspect_evals` repository.** Since May 2026, evaluations live in their own standalone repositories. This repo now serves as a register that points to upstream eval repos. This skill has been moved to **inspect-evals-template**: <https://github.com/Generality-Labs/inspect-evals-template/tree/main/.claude/skills/create-eval>. If a user triggers this skill, inform them to go to the template to run or access the skill there. If a user asks to create an eval, inform them that Inspect Evals no longer accepts code submissions for new evals and suggest the [inspect-evals-template](https://github.com/Generality-Labs/inspect-evals-template) for guidance on creating evals. ## Quick reference | Step | Where | | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Create a new eval | [inspect-evals-template](https://github.com/Generality-Labs/inspect-evals-template) | | Register a completed eval | This repo — use the **Prepare Evaluation For Submission** skill |

- build-repo-contextCrawl repository PRs, issues, and review comments to distill institutional knowledge into a shared knowledge base. Run periodically by "context agents" to maintain agent_artefacts/repo_context/REPO_CONTEXT.md. Trigger only on specific request.
- check-trajectories-workflowUse Inspect Scout to analyze agent trajectories from evaluation log files. Runs default and custom scanners to detect external failures, formatting issues, reward hacking, and ethical refusals. Use when user asks to check/analyze agent trajectories. Trigger when the user asks you to run the "Check Agent Trajectories" workflow.
- ci-maintenance-workflowCI and GitHub Actions maintenance workflows — fix a failing test from a CI URL, fix a failing smoke test, add @pytest.mark.slow markers to slow tests, or review a PR against agent-checkable standards. Use when user asks to fix a failing test, fix a smoke test, mark slow tests, or review a PR. Trigger when the user asks you to run the "Write a PR For A Failing Test", "Fix A Failing Smoke Test", "Mark Slow Tests", or "Review PR According to Agent-Checkable Standards" workflow.
- code-quality-fix-allFix code quality issues identified in a code quality review stored in agent_artefacts/code_quality/<topic>/. Systematically addresses issues found by the code-quality-review-all skill for ANY code quality topic, with validation and testing at each step. Use when user asks to fix issues from a code quality review, or asks to fix issues from agent_artefacts/code_quality/<topic>.
- code-quality-review-allReview all evaluations in the repository against a single code quality standard. Checks ALL evals against ONE standard for periodic quality reviews. Use when user asks to review/audit/check all evaluations for a specific topic or standard. Do NOT use for reviewing a single eval (use eval-quality-workflow instead) or for test coverage (use ensure-test-coverage instead).
- ensure-test-coverageEnsure test coverage for a single evaluation - both reviewing existing tests and creating missing ones. Analyzes testable components, checks tests against repository conventions, reports coverage gaps, and creates or improves tests. Use when user asks to check/review/create/add/ensure tests for an eval. Use whenever you are asked to review an evaluation that contains tests, or whenever you need to write a suite of tests. Do NOT use for fixing a specific failing CI test (use ci-maintenance-workflow instead).
- eval-quality-workflowFix or review a single evaluation against all EVALUATION_CHECKLIST.md standards. Use "fix" mode to refactor an eval into compliance, or "review" mode to assess compliance without making changes. Use when user asks to fix, review, or check an evaluation's quality. Trigger when the user asks you to run the "Fix An Evaluation" or "Review An Evaluation" workflow. Do NOT use for reviewing ALL evals against a single code quality standard (use code-quality-review-all instead).
- eval-report-workflowCreate an evaluation report for a README by selecting models, estimating costs, running evaluations, and formatting results tables. Use when user asks to make/create/generate an evaluation report. Trigger when the user asks you to run the "Make An Evaluation Report" workflow.
- eval-validity-reviewReview a single evaluation's validity — whether its claims hold up, whether its name is accurate, whether samples can be both succeeded and failed at, and whether scoring measures ground truth. Use when user asks to check validity of an eval, or as part of the Master Checklist workflow. Do NOT use for code quality or test coverage (use eval-quality-workflow or ensure-test-coverage instead).
- generate-asset-actionsGenerate asset-actions.yaml from ASSETS.yaml by classifying assets into priority tiers. Use when the user asks to regenerate, update, or refresh the asset actions.
