Build evaluators for AI/LLM applications. Code first, LLM for nuance, validate against humans.
| Task | Files | | ---- | ----- | | Setup | setup-python, setup-typescript | | Decide what to evaluate | evaluators-overview | | Choose a judge model | fundamentals-model-selection | | Use pre-built evaluators | evaluators-pre-built | | Build code evaluator | evaluators-code-python, evaluators-code-typescript | | Build LLM evaluator | evaluators-llm-python, evaluators-llm-typescript, evaluators-custom-templates | | Batch evaluate DataFrame | evaluate-dataframe-python | | Run experiment | experiments-running-python, experiments-running-typescript | | Create dataset | experiments-datasets-python, experiments-datasets-typescript | | Generate synthetic data | experiments-synthetic-python, experiments-synthetic-typescript | | Validate evaluator accuracy | validation, validation-evaluators-python, validation-evaluators-typescript | | Sample traces for review | observe-sampling-python, observe-sampling-typescript | | Analyze errors | error-analysis, error-analysis-multi-turn, axial-coding | | RAG evals | evaluators-rag | | Avoid common mistakes | common-mistakes-python, fundamentals-anti-patterns | | Production | production-overview, production-guardrails, production-continuous |
Starting Fresh: observe-tracing-setup → error-analysis → axial-coding → evaluators-overview
Building Evaluator: fundamentals → common-mistakes-python → evaluators-{code|llm}-{python|typescript} → validation-evaluators-{python|typescript}
RAG Systems: evaluators-rag → evaluators-code-* (retrieval) → evaluators-llm-* (faithfulness)
Production: production-overview → production-guardrails → production-continuous
| Prefix | Description |
| ------ | ----------- |
| fundamentals-* | Types, scores, anti-patterns |
| observe-* | Tracing, sampling |
| error-analysis-* | Finding failures |
| axial-coding-* | Categorizing failures |
| evaluators-* | Code, LLM, RAG evaluators |
| experiments-* | Datasets, running experiments |
| validation-* | Validating evaluator accuracy against human labels |
| production-* | CI/CD, monitoring |
| Principle | Action | | --------- | ------ | | Error analysis first | Can't automate what you haven't observed | | Custom > generic | Build from your failures | | Code first | Deterministic before LLM | | Validate judges | >80% TPR/TNR | | Binary > Likert | Pass/fail, not 1-5 |
tools
Create a new workshop or use an existing directory as one. Handles two paths: (A) use an existing local directory the operator points at, or (B) create a new private GitHub repo in the signed-in account. Never creates a repo inside another repo.
development
Guide for setting up vcpkg in C++ projects, managing dependency versions, and cross-compiling. Covers manifest initialization, CMake and Visual Studio integration, classic-to-manifest migration, version pinning, baselines, overrides, triplets, and cross-compilation. Use when a user is working with vcpkg project setup, installation, version management, or cross-platform builds. For specialized tasks, additional references cover custom registries and overlay ports (references/registries.md), CI/CD and binary caching (references/ci.md), and troubleshooting and dependency lifecycle (references/troubleshooting.md).
testing
Emit structured agent signals — hands-up, blocked, done, checkpoint, partnership. Signals are written as JSON to .signals/ for dashboard consumption and noted in the journal for persistence.
development
Install and configure Markstream streaming Markdown renderers for Vue, React, Svelte, Angular, Nuxt, and Vue 2 applications. Use for package selection, minimal peer dependencies, CSS order, SSR boundaries, streaming mode, and renderer setup.
