Richer eval failure reporting sits behind the plugin eval early-access gate.

What

Eval run summaries now separate ok, error and exit outcomes. A non-zero exit produces an error built from the result message, or from the exit code plus the tail of stderr, falling back to "(no stderr)" when there is none. Behind the plugin eval early-access gate.

Details
  • Runs where a top-level assistant message reported authentication_failed or oauth_org_not_allowed are now flagged as auth-rejected rather than as generic errors.
Evidence

(no stderr)

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
