Evaluation Guides

Learn how to evaluate agent quality, benchmark performance, and compare models using vibe-check’s evaluation features.


Systematic agent evaluation requires structured assessment criteria and reproducible benchmarking. These guides cover:

  • LLM judges - Automated quality assessment using AI
  • Rubric design - Creating effective evaluation criteria
  • Benchmarking - Model comparison and performance analysis
  • Quality gates - Enforcement of quality standards

Leverage LLM-based evaluation to assess agent output quality automatically.

You’ll learn:

  • Configuring judges with rubrics
  • Understanding judge scoring systems
  • Implementing quality gates
  • Debugging judge decisions

Use cases:

  • Automated code review
  • Output quality assessment
  • Regression detection
  • Acceptance criteria validation

Key concepts:

  • Rubric application
  • Judge model selection
  • Scoring and thresholds
  • Error handling

Design effective rubrics for consistent and reliable agent evaluation.

You’ll learn:

  • Rubric structure and schema
  • Writing clear evaluation criteria
  • Designing effective scoring scales
  • Best practices for rubric design

Use cases:

  • Code quality assessment
  • Documentation completeness checks
  • Behavior validation
  • Multi-criteria evaluation

Key concepts:

  • Criterion design
  • Scoring scales (binary, numeric, categorical)
  • Weight assignment
  • Criterion independence

Compare models, configurations, and prompts systematically.

You’ll learn:

  • Setting up benchmark suites
  • Comparing model performance
  • Analyzing cost vs quality tradeoffs
  • Detecting performance regressions

Use cases:

  • Model selection (Sonnet vs Opus vs Haiku)
  • Prompt optimization
  • Configuration tuning
  • Performance monitoring

Key concepts:

  • Matrix testing
  • Performance metrics
