Project evaluation checklist

  1. Open a small, familiar project and confirm that your essential language tooling works.
  2. Give the agent one bounded change with an observable acceptance criterion.
  3. Review the diff, run the project’s checks and compare the result with your current workflow.
  4. Inspect usage after the task. Estimate a month of similar work, including any separate model or agent bill.
