feat(agents): add the Claude Code CLI agent harness - #88
Conversation
Runs the claude binary headless (-p --output-format stream-json --verbose --dangerously-skip-permissions) and folds the wrapped SDK event stream into the canonical trajectory. Selectable as BENCH_AGENT_TYPE=claude, with a claude-code alias. Capabilities ride Claude Code's native cwd channels: rules to CLAUDE.md, skills to <cwd>/.claude/skills, and MCP bindings to a --mcp-config document pinned with --strict-mcp-config. Auth is env-driven through the shared provider contract (Anthropic key, or keyless Vertex / Bedrock), and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is redirected per run so concurrent evals never race on the CLI's global state. Token usage maps onto the shared TOKEN_BUCKETS: Anthropic's input_tokens is already the uncached prompt, cache reads and writes stay separate buckets, and reasoning stays unreported because thinking is billed inside output_tokens. Aliases now canonicalize before the manifest is written, so an arm selected as claude-code aggregates with claude instead of splitting the dashboard setup.

…ation Review-panel findings against the new harness, each verified against the real ``claude`` binary rather than the docs: * Extended thinking is billed inside ``output_tokens`` and reported again under ``output_tokens_details.thinking_tokens``. Split it back out into ``reasoning`` so ``output`` honours the canonical contract while ``total`` stays equal to the provider's own accounting. * The per-turn usage accumulator summed ``output_tokens``, which on an assistant envelope is the ``message_start`` placeholder — a summed 3 against a terminal 3069. Drop it, so a timed-out run leaves the bucket unreported instead of persisting an invented number. * ``str.splitlines`` split on unescaped U+0085, which the CLI emits raw inside JSON strings. That shredded the event, lost its tool call, and injected decode errors that flip the run to unvalidated. Frame on ``\n``. * Tool results were retained verbatim, and the trajectory is re-serialized into the judge prompts; clip to a head+tail slice with the middle marked. * ``--strict-mcp-config`` was conditional on the harness writing its own config, so a stray ``.mcp.json`` in the workspace silently granted MCP tools to the baseline arm. Always pass it. * Shield the prompt behind ``--``; the option parser otherwise reads a leading ``-`` as a flag and aborts the run. * Clip the child stderr that reaches the persisted ``errors`` list, matching the cap the sibling ``metadata`` field already applies.

* Drop the module docstring's pointer to ``docs/appendix/known_issues.md``,
which does not exist in this tree — the surrounding text already explains
the per-run config-dir isolation.
* Restrict ``mcp-config.json`` to owner-only. A binding's argv can carry a
server credential and the file lands in the run workspace the harness
later collects, so the umask default (0o644 on most machines) is too open.
* Clear ``CLOUD_ML_REGION`` as well as ``GCP_VERTEX_LOCATION`` in the
default-region test; it is the second link in the same fallback chain, so
an ambient value on a developer machine or CI runner shadowed the default.
* Resolve the agent before reading ``AGENTS`` in both alias tests. A builtin
self-registers on the lazy import ``resolve_agent`` performs, so reading
the registry first passed only when an earlier test happened to import the
module — both tests failed when run alone.
* Annotate the ``monkeypatch`` / ``tmp_path`` fixture parameters, matching
the convention the rest of the suite already follows.
Not applied: gating the run on Claude Code v2.1.221 for ``--mcp-config``.
The CLI reference attaches that floor to the wait-for-pending-servers
behaviour ("The wait requires Claude Code v2.1.221 or later"), not to the
flag, so a version probe would add a subprocess call per run for nothing.

…sion ``--mcp-config`` under ``-p`` only waits for still-pending MCP servers to connect before the first turn from Claude Code v2.1.221 on. An older binary accepts the flag and starts the turn regardless, so an MCP-augmented arm can run with none of its tools attached and still be scored as augmented -- the same silent contamination ``--strict-mcp-config`` prevents from the other direction, and worse than a loud failure for a benchmark. Probe ``claude --version`` and refuse the run below the floor. The probe is gated on a bound run, so a baseline arm pays nothing. An inconclusive probe (non-zero exit, unparseable output, spawn failure) proceeds: ``config.target`` may be a wrapper script with its own ``--version`` surface, and blocking on a probe that merely failed to parse would cost more than the risk it guards. Reverses the one item skipped in 8499755. The CLI reference does attach the floor to the wait rather than to the flag ("The wait requires Claude Code v2.1.221 or later"), but losing the wait is itself a correctness bug here, not a cosmetic one.

An ambient CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR was honoured unconditionally as the operator's escape hatch for reusing a cached OAuth login. Under ``--parallel`` that is wrong: several benchmark processes share one host, and each would inherit the same mutable Claude config dir -- the collision class ``core.run_env`` exists to prevent for KUBECONFIG / CLOUDSDK_CONFIG / TF_DATA_DIR. The operator has already declared concurrency, so isolation outranks the login cache; the override warns rather than failing. The hatch is kept for serial runs. Always isolating would leave an OAuth-authenticated operator unable to run the bench at all without an API key, since credentials live in the config dir the fresh temp dir replaces.

Always generating a per-run dir would leave an OAuth-authenticated operator unable to run the bench at all without an API key: credentials live in the config dir that the fresh temp dir replaces.

Two defects found while exercising the harness end to end against a real gke-mcp server. The child inherited the parent's stdin, so under `-p` the CLI waited out its full 3s piped-prompt timeout on every invocation (6.84s vs 3.11s measured) and wrote a "no stdin data received" warning to stderr. That warning landed in `metadata["stderr"]` on every run and, on a non-zero exit, became the error message — displacing the real cause. Passing an empty `input` closes the pipe immediately. The parser only treated an `error_*` subtype as failure, but a failed API call can carry `subtype: "success"` with `is_error` set and still exit 0 (observed: a 404 model-not-found on Vertex). Such a run was recorded as clean with an empty trajectory and zeroed usage. `is_error` now surfaces on `errors`, carrying `api_error_status` when present, as an `elif` so an `error_*` subtype still reports a single line.

Unify the subprocess success and failure paths so a partial stream-json capture is parsed on every one. Previously only the SubprocessError branch recovered a timed-out run's trajectory, and it did so through a second result builder that had to remember to attach the token shape. `AgentResult.errored` now carries the canonical all-`None` token shape itself, which removes the local `_errored_with_tokens` duplicate. Also guard a non-string `tool_use.name` in the stream parser, and record the canonical harness key in the manifest so an arm selected as `claude-code` aggregates with `claude` instead of splitting into a second dashboard setup.

There are only 5 subtypes as listed here: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/agent-sdk/python#resultmessage, anything that gets past the prefix would still hit the is_error branch below it.
``_usage_tokens`` summed whatever buckets were present, so the truncated stream path published a prompt-side-only ``total``. That path leaves ``output`` unreported on purpose -- the per-turn ``usage.output_tokens`` is the ``message_start`` placeholder -- so every timed-out run recorded a total short by the whole output side. ``normalize_tokens`` reads ``total`` verbatim onto the dashboard row and never recomputes it from the buckets, so the undercount reached the leaderboard. ``total`` is now filled in only once ``output`` is known.

Adds a
claudeCLI agent harness that drives theclaudebinary in headlessmode and folds its event stream into the canonical trajectory and token
buckets. Ported from gke-labs/devops-bench#199 and rewired onto the shared
token schema that landed here since.
What it does
Runs
claude -p --output-format stream-json --verboseand parses the wrappedSDK event stream on stdout — no session-file reads off disk. Capabilities go
through Claude Code's native cwd channels, written into the per-run working
directory:
CLAUDE.mdin the cwd<cwd>/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md<cwd>/.claude/mcp-config.jsonvia--mcp-configAuth is env-driven through the shared provider contract:
config.api_keyontothe provider's key env var(s), or keyless Vertex / Bedrock via ADC / AWS
credentials.
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRis redirected to a fresh per-run temp dir sothe CLI's mutable global state never races across concurrent evals.
Token buckets
The upstream PR carried a harness-local bucket tuple pending the shared schema.
This version maps the Anthropic
usageblock straight ontoTOKEN_BUCKETS,with cache reads and cache writes kept in separate buckets (writes bill at a
premium):
input_tokensinputcache_read_input_tokenscachedcache_creation_input_tokenscache_writeoutput_tokens_details.thinking_tokensreasoningoutput_tokensless the aboveoutputExtended thinking is billed inside
output_tokensand counted again underoutput_tokens_details, so it is subtracted back out —outputexcludesreasoningper the contract, andtotalstill equals the provider's ownaccounting. An unreported bucket stays
Nonerather than a fabricated0. Across-layer test asserts the emitted keys survive
normalize_tokensonto thedashboard row.
Alias canonicalization
claude-codejoinsgemini-clias a friendly alias. Both the registry lookupand the manifest write now go through one
_canonical_agent_typehelper, so anarm selected by alias aggregates under the same
harness/setup_idas thecanonical key instead of splitting into a second dashboard setup.
Review fixes
A review panel over the port turned up seven issues, each reproduced against
the real
claudebinary (2.1.228) before fixing, and fixed in the secondcommit:
output. The port assumed Anthropic reportsno separate thinking count. A live run returns
"output_tokens":3069,"output_tokens_details":{"thinking_tokens":2778}, andthe thinking count is included in
output_tokens.output~1000x too low. Per-turnusage.output_tokenson an assistant envelope is themessage_startplaceholder — a summed 3 against a terminal 3069. It only fires on the
timed-out path, so every timed-out run recorded a plausible-looking wrong
number. The bucket is now left unreported; the prompt-side fields do
accumulate faithfully and are kept.

a log is mis-decoded as latin-1. On a reproduced stream that cost 2 of 3 tool
calls and injected 6 bogus errors — enough to flip
validatedtoFalseanddrop the run off the leaderboard. Framing now keys on
\nalone.Read/Bash result (measured ~20 KB per call, one Read at 58 KB), and the whole
trace is
json.dumps'd into two LLM judge prompts with nothing truncating inbetween. Clipped to a head+tail slice with the middle marked elided.
--strict-mcp-configskipped on the baseline arm. It was only passedalongside
--mcp-config. Verified: without it a stray.mcp.jsonin theworkspace loads; with it,
mcp_serversis empty. That silently granted MCPtools to the un-augmented arm, contaminating the comparison the bench exists
to measure. Now unconditional.
--before the prompt. A prompt whose first token starts with-wasread as a flag and aborted the run with rc=1 and no output.
metadata["stderr"]wasclipped at 2000 chars while the same stderr went unbounded into
errors,which is what reaches disk. Both paths now share one cap.
Also verified and deliberately left alone:
CLOUD_ML_REGIONis the correctVertex region variable for this CLI (
ANTHROPIC_VERTEX_LOCATIONdoes notappear in the binary at all).
