Run HolmesGPT evals (tests/llm/fixtures/test_ask_holmes) against the current agent itself (agent-native). The agent must answer the prompts itself (no external wrapper) using its own tools, run before_test/after_test around each case, compare the answer to expected_output using the scoring rules here, and generate JSON + Markdown reports. This skill focuses exclusively on the agent-native flow. Supports bulk run (all tests) and individual run (specific test case). Supports filtering tests by…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

HolmesGPT Eval — Agent-Native (Self-Answer)

Primary purpose
- Evaluate the current agent against HolmesGPT's eval fixtures by having the agent answer each user_prompt itself.
- No HTTP bridge or shell wrapper for answering — the agent's own tools should be used to produce the answer string that gets scored.
- Supports two modes: bulk run (all or filtered tests) and individual run (single specific test case).

Agent-native flow (what the agent should do)
1) Check for existing fixtures:
   - If vendor/holmesgpt/tests/llm/fixtures/test_ask_holmes exists, skip fetch and use existing fixtures.
   - Otherwise, call scripts/fetch_fixtures.sh via exec to download/unzip HolmesGPT and return tests/llm/fixtures/test_ask_holmes.
2) Determine run mode:
   - Bulk run: If no specific test case is specified, iterate through all case directories (optionally filtered by tags).
   - Individual run: If a specific test case is specified (e.g., "01_how_many_pods", "09_crashpod"), run only that single test.
3) Iterate each case directory containing test_case.yaml:
   - Parse test_case.yaml and determine case controls before executing anything:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add azure/aks-skills/holmesgpt-eval@sha256:6cd8ca3a4a8c9b9b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260804.baba08f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
