mira-eval 0.1.0

Python SDK for authoring Mira eval studies (protocol over stdio, no Rust dependency).

mira-eval — Python SDK

Author a Mira eval study in Python and run it with the mira host CLI.

This is not a binding to the Rust core — it's a native, pure-stdlib library that speaks the Mira eval protocol (newline-delimited JSON over stdio). The host owns selection, the model matrix, concurrency, checkpoints, and reporting; the study owns subjects and scoring. Any language that speaks the protocol is a first-class study — this SDK just makes the Python side ergonomic.

The protocol layer is generated from the canonical artifacts under schema/v1/ — the same language-neutral contract the Rust host is generated from — so it never drifts from the wire format: mira/_wire.py (wire types, from schema.json) and mira/_meta.py (protocol version, methods, capability tokens, from meta.json).

Use

import mira

study = mira.Study("my-evals", version="0.1.0")

@study.eval(
    samples=[mira.Sample("hi", prompt="Say hi and the answer to life.", tags=["smoke"])],
    targets=[mira.target("sim")],
    scorers=[mira.succeeded(), mira.contains("42")],
)
def greet(sample, cx):
    # A real subject calls a model; route on cx.target / cx.provider.
    return mira.transcript(
        f"Hi! The answer is 42. ({sample.text})",
        usage=mira.Usage(input_tokens=40, output_tokens=8),
    )

if __name__ == "__main__":
    study.serve()

Drive it with the host:

mira --cmd "python3 study.py" list
mira --cmd "python3 study.py" run
# run-now, score-later (split execute/score path):
mira --cmd "python3 study.py" run --execute-only --artifacts art/
mira --cmd "python3 study.py" score --artifacts art/

A complete, runnable example lives in examples/greet-python.

API

• Study(name, version=None, page_size=500) — the registry; @study.eval(...) registers a subject fn(sample, cx) -> Transcript; study.serve() runs the stdio loop (handling initialize/list/list_samples/run/execute/score). page_size paginates large datasets across list + list_samples (0 disables).
• Sample(id, prompt=…|input=[…], tags=…, expected=…, files=…, metadata=…) — sample.text joins the input turns for the subject.
• target(label, provider="", available=True) — a matrix cell (the model or harness under evaluation). An unavailable target is reported as N/A (infra), not a failure.
• RunCx — cx.target, cx.provider, cx.max_turns, cx.param(name).
• transcript(final_response, usage=…, timing=…, iterations=…, …) and the Usage/Timing types.
• Scorers: succeeded(), contains(text), equals(text), regex(pattern), and scorer(name, fn) for an arbitrary predicate (return a bool or a fully-formed Score, including na=True).
• axis(name, values) — an extra matrix axis (crossed with the model matrix).

Develop

python3 codegen.py            # regenerate mira/_wire.py + mira/_meta.py from schema/v1/
python3 codegen.py --check    # fail if either is stale (CI drift guard)
pip install -e .[dev]
python3 -m pytest             # conformance + metadata-coverage + serve-loop tests

The runtime has zero dependencies; jsonschema and pytest are dev-only.
