Rule Evals

Evaluation of whether explicit rules improve AI code generation output.

Methodology

• Model: Claude Opus 4.6 via Claude Code
• Approach: Compare baseline (no rule) vs extracted rule (concise "Rule for AI agents" version)
• Metric: Does providing the rule improve output compared to model's inherent knowledge?
• Code: eval suite on GitHub
