Quickstart

from agentdog import AgentTrace, ToolCall, TestCase, EvalRun, run
from agentdog import ContainsAnswer, UsedTools, AvoidedTools, UnderTokenLimit

trace = AgentTrace(
    input="Summarize the Q3 report.",
    output="Q3 revenue was $4.2M, up 12% YoY.",
    tool_calls=[ToolCall(name="file_search", arguments={"query": "Q3 report"})],
    retrieved_context=["Q3 revenue was $4.2M, growth 12% year over year."],
    total_tokens=620,
)

case = TestCase(
    name="q3-summary",
    tags=["rag"],
    scorers=[
        ContainsAnswer(["4.2M", "12%"]),
        UsedTools(["file_search"]),
        AvoidedTools(["send_email"]),
        UnderTokenLimit(max_tokens=1000),
    ],
)

report = run([EvalRun(case=case, trace=trace)])
report.print(verbose=True)

CLI

Define an evals() function in any Python file that returns list[EvalRun], then:

agentdog run my_evals.py             # run all cases
agentdog run my_evals.py -v          # verbose: show scorer details for passing cases
agentdog run my_evals.py --tag rag   # filter by tag
agentdog run my_evals.py --json-out report.json  # machine-readable output
agentdog inspect trace.json          # pretty-print a trace file

Exit code is 0 on full pass, 1 on any failure — CI-friendly by default.

Trace schema

AgentTrace(
    input: str,
    output: str,
    tool_calls: list[ToolCall],        # name, arguments, output, error, latency_ms
    retrieved_context: list[str],
    total_tokens: int | None,
    total_cost_usd: float | None,
    total_latency_ms: float | None,
    num_retries: int,
    metadata: dict,
)

Load/save:

trace = AgentTrace.from_json("trace.json")
trace.to_json("trace.json")

Custom scorer

from agentdog.scorers.base import Scorer, ScoreResult

class AnswerStartsWith(Scorer):
    def __init__(self, prefix: str):
        self.prefix = prefix

    def score(self, trace) -> ScoreResult:
        passed = trace.output.startswith(self.prefix)
        return ScoreResult(
            passed=passed,
            score=1.0 if passed else 0.0,
            reason=f"Expected output to start with {self.prefix!r}",
        )

Example

See examples/sample_evals.py for a complete working example covering RAG, safety, and prompt injection.
