Jesse Vincent 8a96c967c9 docs(testing): describe the Quorum eval lab accurately, replacing stale Drill references
The evals harness was renamed Drill -> Quorum and rewritten from
Python/uv to Bun/TypeScript; docs/testing.md and CLAUDE.md still
described the old tool. Beyond the rename, the old text also
misdescribed the system: quorum is the harness CLI, one part of the
eval lab — it drives real coding-agent CLIs through a Gauntlet QA
agent and grades against scenario acceptance criteria plus
deterministic post-checks. The quick start now matches the eval
repo's actual commands (bun install / bun run quorum run
scenarios/<name> --coding-agent claude; scenarios are directories,
not *.yaml) and points at the Live Eval Risk section before anyone
runs a permissive-mode session.

Drift reported in closed PR #2121 (@JFWaskin); that PR's replacement
quick start kept the uv commands, so this rewrite goes from the eval
repo's README instead.

## Eval harness
Skill-behavior evals live in [superpowers-evals](https://github.com/prime-radiant-inc/superpowers-evals/), cloned into `evals/` — see `evals/README.md` for setup. Drill (the harness) drives real tmux sessions of Claude Code / Codex / Gemini CLI and judges skill compliance with an LLM verifier. Plugin-infrastructure tests still live at `tests/`.

## Skill behavior evals
Live in `evals/`. Drill is the harness; scenarios live at `evals/scenarios/*.yaml`. See `evals/README.md` for setup. Quick start:
Live in `evals/` (the [superpowers-evals](https://github.com/prime-radiant-inc/superpowers-evals/) eval lab, since renamed from Drill). Quorum is the harness CLI — one part of the system: it drives real coding-agent CLIs through a Gauntlet QA agent and grades them against each scenario's acceptance criteria plus deterministic post-checks. Scenarios live at `evals/scenarios/<name>/`. See `evals/README.md` for setup, the container runtime, and the safety model. Quick start (local break-glass run):
```bash
cd evals
uv sync --extra dev
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-...
uv run drill run triggering-test-driven-development -b claude
bun install
export SUPERPOWERS_ROOT=/path/to/superpowers
bun run quorum run scenarios/triggering-test-driven-development --coding-agent claude
bun run quorum show <run-dir>
```
Drill scenarios are slow (3-30+ minutes each) and run real LLM sessions. They are not part of CI today; the natural follow-up is a tiered model (fast subset on PR, full sweep nightly + on-demand).
Quorum scenarios are slow (3-30+ minutes each) and run real LLM sessions in permissive modes — read `evals/README.md`'s Live Eval Risk section first. Only the static gates (`bun run check`, `bun run quorum check`) are safe for public CI; the natural follow-up remains a tiered model (static gates on PR, live sweep nightly + on-demand).
