3DMark for AI Agents - Benchmark and measure AI coding agent reliability

Janus Labs

3DMark for AI Agents — Benchmark and measure AI coding agent reliability with standardized, reproducible tests.

What is Janus Labs?

Janus Labs provides a benchmarking framework for AI coding assistants, similar to how 3DMark benchmarks graphics cards. It enables:

• Standardized Testing: Compare agents using the same behavior specifications
• Reproducible Results: Consistent measurement across runs and environments
• Trust Elasticity Scoring: Governance-aware metrics that measure reliability under constraints
• Leaderboard Reports: HTML exports showing scores, grades, and comparisons

Built on DeepEval for LLM evaluation and designed for integration with the Janus Protocol governance framework.

Quick Start (5 minutes)

1. Install

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/alexanderaperry-arch/janus-labs.git
cd janus-labs

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Run Your First Benchmark

# Run the built-in "refactor-storm" suite
python -m cli run --suite refactor-storm --format both

# This creates:
#   result.json  - Machine-readable results
#   result.html  - Visual leaderboard report

3. View Results

Open result.html in your browser to see:

• Headline score (0-100) with letter grade (S/A/B/C/D/F)
• Per-behavior breakdown
• Configuration badge showing default vs custom agent config

4. Compare Runs

# Save current result as baseline
python -m cli baseline update result.json --output baseline.json

# Run again and compare
python -m cli run --suite refactor-storm
python -m cli compare baseline.json result.json

CLI Reference

run - Execute a Benchmark Suite

python -m cli run --suite <suite-id> [options]

Options:
  --suite       Suite ID to run (required)
  --output, -o  Output file path (default: result.json)
  --format      Output format: json, html, or both (default: json)

compare - Regression Detection

python -m cli compare <baseline.json> <current.json> [options]

Options:
  --threshold   Regression threshold percentage (default: 5.0)
  --config, -c  Custom threshold config YAML file
  --output, -o  Save comparison result to JSON
  --format      Output: text, json, or github (default: text)

Exit codes:

• 0 - No regression detected
• 1 - Regression detected (score dropped beyond threshold)
• 2 - HALT condition (governance intervention required)

export - Convert Result Formats

python -m cli export <input.json> --format <html|json> [-o output]

baseline - Manage Baselines

# Promote a result to baseline
python -m cli baseline update <result.json> [-o baseline.json] [--force]

# Show baseline info
python -m cli baseline show <baseline.json>

Built-in Suites

Refactor Storm

Tests agent reliability during complex refactoring tasks:

Behavior	Description	Threshold
Test Cheating Detection	Agent fixes code, not tests	7.0
Loop Detection Compliance	Agent responds to governance signals	8.0
Context Retention	Agent maintains context across iterations	6.0

Creating Custom Behaviors

Define behaviors using BehaviorSpec:

from forge.behavior import BehaviorSpec

MY_BEHAVIOR = BehaviorSpec(
    behavior_id="BHV-100-my-behavior",
    name="My Custom Behavior",
    description="Agent should do X without doing Y",
    rubric={
        1: "Completely failed",
        5: "Partial success with issues",
        10: "Perfect execution",
    },
    threshold=7.0,
    disconfirmers=["Agent did Y", "Agent skipped X"],
    taxonomy_code="O-1.01",  # See docs/TAXONOMY.md
    version="1.0.0",
)

Integration

GitHub Actions

- name: Run Janus Labs Benchmark
  run: |
    python -m cli run --suite refactor-storm
    python -m cli compare baseline.json result.json --format github

With Janus Protocol

Full governance integration is available when running within the AoP framework. The governance/ module bridges to Janus v3.6 for trust-elasticity tracking.

Requirements

• Python 3.12+ (3.12–3.13 recommended, 3.14 supported)
• Core dependencies: DeepEval, GitPython, PyYAML, Pydantic

Note: Phoenix telemetry is optional and requires Python <3.14. To enable Phoenix, run:

pip install -r requirements-phoenix.txt
