I totally agreed with your critic. To be honest, it's even hard for myself to evaluate. What I do is select several packages that current LLM failed to handle, which are in the sample folder, `crawl4ai`, `google-genai` and `svelte`. And try some tricky prompt to see if it works. But even that evaluation is hard. LLM could hallucinate. I would say most time it works, but there are always few runs that failed to deliver. I actually prepared a comparison, cursor vs cursor + internet vs cursor + context7 vs cursor + llm-min.txt. But I thought it was stochastic, so I didn't put it here. Will consider add to repo as well

You can use success rate % over N runs for a set of problems, which is something you can compare to other systems. A separate model does the evaluation. There are existing frameworks like DeepEval that facilitate this.

Dual run.

Run the same questions against a model with the unminified and the minified and show the results side-by-side and see how, in your subjective opinion, they hold up.

why don't you ask the model about the shrinked system prompt and the original system prompt? in this way you can infer whether the same relevant informations are "stored" in the hidden state of the model.

Or better yet, check directly the hidden state difference between a model feed with the original prompt and one with the shrinked prompt.

This should avoid remove the randomness of the results.

To be honest with you, it being stochastic is exactly why you should post it.

Having data is how we learn and build intuition. If your experiments showed that modern LLMs were able to succeed more often when given the llm-min file, then that’s an interesting result even if all that was measured was “did the LLM do the task”.

Such a result would raise a lot of interesting questions and ideas, like about the possibility of SKF increasing the model’s ability to apply new information.

> LLM could hallucinate

The job of any context retrieval system is to retrieve the relevant info for the task so the LLM doesn't hallucinate. Maybe build a benchmark based on less-known external libraries with test cases that can check the output is correct (or with a mocking layer to know that the LLM-generated code calls roughly the correct functions).

Thanks for the feedback. This will be my next step. Personally I feel it's hard to design those test cases (by myself)
