| # Agent harness evaluations | ||
|
|
||
| Measurement for the agent harness — the code that turns a model's tool calls | ||
| into executed tools, feeds the results back, and keeps the turn alive when a | ||
| tool fails. Unit and integration tests prove the harness handles the cases we | ||
| already know about; evals measure whether it still behaves across a suite of | ||
| scenarios when the harness changes. | ||
|
|
||
| ## What runs | ||
|
|
||
| The first suite lives in [`agent-tool-use/`](./agent-tool-use) and drives the | ||
| real OpenAI-compatible streaming tool loop | ||
| (`apps/sim/providers/openai-compat/streaming-tool-loop.ts`) — the loop that | ||
| serves OpenAI, DeepSeek, Groq, Cerebras, and the other OpenAI-compatible | ||
| providers. The model is **scripted**: each scenario supplies the assistant turns | ||
| (tool calls or a final answer) and the result of each tool call. That keeps the | ||
| suite deterministic and runnable in CI with no provider key, while the thing | ||
| being measured — tool dispatch, result feedback, error recovery — is real | ||
| production code. | ||
|
|
||
| The suites cover four behaviors: | ||
|
|
||
| | Category | What it measures | | ||
| | --- | --- | | ||
| | `tool-selection` | The loop dispatches the tool the model asked for, including from a set of distractors. | | ||
| | `planning` | Multi-turn, dependent and parallel tool calls execute in the right order and all results reach the next turn. | | ||
| | `retrieval` | Values returned by a tool survive into the final answer instead of being dropped or invented. | | ||
| | `recovery` | Tool errors, unknown tool names, and malformed argument JSON are fed back to the model rather than thrown out of the loop. | | ||
|
|
||
| ## Run it | ||
|
|
||
| From `apps/sim`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| bun run test:evals | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| The command writes a JSON report and a Markdown summary to | ||
| `test-results/evals/agent-tool-use.{json,md}` (gitignored) and fails the process | ||
| if any scenario fails. To point the report somewhere else, run Vitest directly: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| EVAL_REPORT_PATH=/tmp/agent-tool-use.json bunx vitest run evals/agent-tool-use | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| The suite is also picked up by the normal `bun run test` run, so a regression | ||
| fails CI even without the dedicated command. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Run against a real model (live) | ||
|
|
||
| The same scenarios can be replayed against a live model. This is opt-in and | ||
| never runs in CI. DeepSeek is wired first; any OpenAI-compatible provider works | ||
| through `createOpenAICompatLiveCompletion` in `live.ts`. | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| cd apps/sim | ||
| DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=... bun run test:evals:live | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Useful knobs: | ||
|
|
||
| | Variable | Default | Meaning | | ||
| | --- | --- | --- | | ||
| | `EVAL_TRIALS` | `3` | Runs per scenario. Models are nondeterministic, so results are pass rates. | | ||
| | `EVAL_MIN_PASS_RATE` | `0` | When > 0, fail a scenario below this pass rate (0–1). | | ||
| | `EVAL_MODEL` | `deepseek-chat` | Model id sent to the provider. | | ||
| | `EVAL_TIMEOUT_MS` | `180000` | Per-request timeout. | | ||
| | `EVAL_REPORT_PATH` | `test-results/evals/agent-tool-use-live.json` | Report location. | | ||
|
|
||
| Live runs relax exact assertions: `toolCallSequence` becomes an ordered | ||
| subsequence, `successfulToolCalls` becomes a minimum, and scripted-only cases | ||
| (malformed JSON, unknown tool) are skipped. A scenario-level `liveExpect` | ||
| overrides the scripted expectation where a real model cannot reproduce it (for | ||
| example, an exact retry count). The report is at | ||
| `test-results/evals/agent-tool-use-live.{json,md}` with pass rates, average | ||
| iterations, latency, and the failed check names. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Compare models | ||
|
|
||
| Run the same scenarios across several models and get a scenario × model matrix: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| cd apps/sim | ||
| EVAL_MODELS=deepseek:deepseek-chat,deepseek:deepseek-reasoner \ | ||
| DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=... bun run test:evals:compare | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| A spec is `provider:model`; a bare model id defaults to DeepSeek. Providers are | ||
| DeepSeek, OpenAI, Groq, and OpenRouter, each reading its key from | ||
| `<PROVIDER>_API_KEY`. The report is | ||
| `test-results/evals/agent-tool-use-compare.{json,md}`: per-model pass rate, | ||
| iterations, latency, and tokens, plus a per-scenario pass-rate matrix. | ||
| `EVAL_MIN_PASS_RATE` fails a model below a floor. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Add a case | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Open [`agent-tool-use/scenarios.ts`](./agent-tool-use/scenarios.ts) and add | ||
| an entry to `AGENT_TOOL_USE_SCENARIOS`. | ||
| 2. Declare the `tools` the model may call and the `script` it produces. A | ||
| `tools` turn lists the calls the model emits; an `answer` turn ends the run. | ||
| Attach each call's stub `result` (or leave it to default to a successful | ||
| empty output). | ||
| 3. Add the assertions you care about under `expect`: the ordered | ||
| `toolCallSequence`, `requiredTools`/`forbiddenTools`, `finalContent`, | ||
| `maxIterations`, and tool call counts. Every assertion becomes a named check | ||
| in the report. | ||
| 4. Run `bun run test:evals`. | ||
|
|
||
| A scenario is data, not code — there is no harness change needed for a new case. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Simulating a failure | ||
|
|
||
| - **Tool error:** give the call `result: { success: false, error: '...' }`. | ||
| - **Unknown tool:** call a `name` that is not in `tools`; the loop returns a | ||
| tool-not-found error to the model. | ||
| - **Malformed arguments:** set `argumentsJson` to an invalid or non-object JSON | ||
| string. The loop must not execute the call and must return the parse error to | ||
| the model. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Executor-level scenarios | ||
|
|
||
| [`agent-tool-use/executor-harness.ts`](./agent-tool-use/executor-harness.ts) | ||
| runs a case through a real `DAGExecutor`: a Start block → Agent block workflow, | ||
| with only the provider boundary (`executeProviderRequest`) mocked. This covers | ||
| what the loop harness cannot — agent-block input wiring, variable resolution | ||
| from Start outputs, and the executor's run/error handling. Tool dispatch stays | ||
| covered by the loop suite. | ||
|
|
||
| Add a case to `EXECUTOR_SCENARIOS` in `executor-harness.ts`: | ||
|
|
||
| - `workflowInput` is exposed on the Start block; reference an output with | ||
| `<start.field>` from the Agent prompt. | ||
| - `agent` is the Agent block config (`model`, `systemPrompt`, `userPrompt`). | ||
| - `providerResponse` is what the mocked provider returns (`content`, | ||
| `toolCalls`, `tokens`). | ||
| - `expect` uses the loop's checks plus `resolvedInput` (a substring that must | ||
| reach the provider messages), `succeeds` (expected `ExecutionResult.success`), | ||
| and `providerCalls` (exact provider call count). | ||
| - Set `agent.retry` to exercise the executor's per-block retry policy, or | ||
| `agent.fallbackModels` to exercise model fallback. Make the first | ||
| `providerResponse` a `reject` and the next one succeeds; assert | ||
| `providerCalls` and `lastRequestModel` to prove which path recovered. | ||
|
|
||
| Both suites write one report, so executor rows appear alongside loop rows. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Report shape | ||
|
|
||
| `report.json` is machine-readable for dashboards and trend tracking; `report.md` | ||
| is the same data as a table. Each result carries the scenario id, pass/fail, | ||
| every named check with a failure detail, the final content, the executed tool | ||
| invocations, and metrics: iterations, tool call counts (success/error), latency, | ||
| model/tool time, first-response time, and token usage. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Scope and next steps | ||
|
|
||
| Two harnesses share one result shape and report: the tool loop and the | ||
| `DAGExecutor`. The executor suite covers both recovery paths — block retry | ||
| (`executor-retries-failed-block`) and model fallback | ||
| (`executor-falls-back-to-secondary-model`). Further expansion (context/memory, | ||
| model routing, subagent orchestration) is tracked as follow-up work. |

This timeout covers the entire test case, while its
EVAL_TRIALSruns execute sequentially. The default three trials share one 180-second deadline even though each trial can make multiple model requests. A slow, otherwise valid comparison can therefore time out before its trials finish. The single-model live test uses the same pattern; give each case a budget that accounts for its trials and requests.
