I have run into this problem too - and don't have a proper solution.
I have discovered, however, that if you set net_fakelag to anything about
~25ms, the jittering disappears. This is probably in line with what you
would expect with a listenserver-only problem.
Until I find a proper solution, I have simply added UseClientSideAnimation()
into the AI_BaseNPC constructor - this also stops jittering, but it does
affect all animations, causing them to be "less exaggerated"

Subject: [hlcoders] NPC Animation Latency...
Reply-To: [email protected]

I have developed npcs deriving off the PlayerCompanion class and I am
havin=
g some issues. The first thing I tried was disabling any possible
predictio=
n issues or anything related to that, but it did not solve anything. ie
CDi=
sablePrediction Filtering.

What is occuring is NPC animations are jittery and sometimes will enter
jes=
us pose breifly. As well sometimes odd animation issues occur where the
fee=
t are using wrong pose parameters to actual movement. Like the npc is
walki=
ng nw direction facing north and the feet look like they are strafing
towar=
d the east .

The issue also only occurs in Listen Servers. In dedicated servers the
anim=
ations all work fantastically.

Any help is appreciated.
