Model the analyzer runs.
glm-5.3-flash and haiku are alternatives, glm-5.3 escalates, and fireworks/deepseek-v4.1-flash is the same model on its Fireworks route. Must be on the claude roster.value
Reasoning effort the analyzer runs at. Defaults to the per-model default:
high on openrouter/deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash, max on glm-5.3-flash.path
Rubric file: TOML (one
[[criteria]] table per criterion), YAML or JSON in the {criteria: [{name, description, guidance}]} shape, parsed at the keyboard with unknown fields refused by name; the server owns the bounds. Defaults to the platform’s analyze rubric, seven criteria with score_is_earned first.path

custom rubric when there is none), the criterion outcomes, the analyzer’s cost and a summary excerpt, with failed analyses listed below. With --json, NDJSON envelopes: analysis.accepted, analysis.stats per change, analysis.final with the job and the analyzed trials.With
--watch: suppress the progress lines and print the final block only.Global options
