Evaluation Guide

This guide explains the philosophy behind our evaluation scenarios, the structure of the industrial corpus, and how to interpret results.

AgentV ships with a production-grade corpus of 5,000+ scenarios across 45+ industrial sectors. This includes:

  • Cross-Industry: Inter-sector policy negotiation and data handoffs.
  • Ethical Guardrails: Hardened safety, bias, and PII leakage tests.
  • Interactive Complexity: Multi-turn flows involving Human-In-The-Loop (HITL).
  • Simulations: High-fidelity lab environments (World Shims).

Each evaluation is defined by an Agent Evaluation Specification (AES) file. Key components include:

  • metadata: Scenario metadata, including id, name, capabilities, and aes_version (e.g., 1.4).
  • workflow: Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) structure containing nodes and edges.

Each node within the workflow DAG defines:

  • id: Unique step identifier (e.g. t1).
  • task_description: The prompt or instruction text.
  • success_criteria: An array of metrics and thresholds (e.g., state_verification, tool_call_correctness).
  • expected_outcome: (Optional) Standard cryptographic outcome or verifiably expected state.

MetricCategoryDescription
tool_call_correctnessLogicExact set-match of expected vs. actual tools.
state_verificationPracticalVerify persistent system state changes via dot-notation.
policy_complianceSafetyDetect violations of explicit governance rules.
delegation_loop_riskEfficiencyDetects infinite reasoning or re-planning cycles.
luna_judge_scoreSemanticAsync LLM-based verification of answer quality.

For semantic evaluations, you can specify rubrics like clinical_safety, fiduciary_accuracy, or policy_adherence within the luna_judge_score configuration.


The harness supports three primary communication modes for agents:

  1. HTTP: Standard REST/JSON endpoint (Default).
  2. Local: Subprocess execution via AGENT_LOCAL_CMD.
  3. Socket: Direct TCP connection to a persistent agent server.

You can pull and format datasets from global benchmarks on-the-fly using URIs:

Terminal window
agentv run --path gaia://2023_all

Beyond the CLI, the Visual Console provides real-time playback of agent trajectories:

  • Trajectory Playback: Step-by-step reconstruction of tool calls and state changes.
  • Forensic Triage: Automatic identification of the “Patient Zero” step in a failure chain.
  • Mermaid Maps: Visual DAG representation of the agent’s reasoning path.

Launch with:

Terminal window
agentv console
