verdikt

Configurable LLM-as-judge library for Python. Plug it into any agent or pipeline: configure judges in code or YAML, feed in the AI's input/output, get back a structured, typed Verdict — score, label, reasoning, cost, and token accounting, every time.

verdikt is built as a library, not a framework: it has no server, no required event loop of its own, and no assumptions about your agent stack. Every extension point — judge types, LLM backends, provider protocols, prompt templates — is a small, explicit interface you implement and register, so your own components plug in without forking or patching the library. See Extending verdikt below.

Features

• 9 built-in judge types — pointwise, reference, pairwise (with position-swap), rubric (G-Eval style), classifier, rag_faithfulness, rag_context_relevance, rag_answer_relevance, trajectory (agent runs) — plus your own custom types.
• Execution modes per judge — single model, broadcast to many models with consensus (majority_vote, average, weighted_average, unanimous, consensus_leader), or judge_of_judges (a meta-judge weighs every verdict and its reasoning, not just the score).
• Multi-step pipelines — sequential/parallel steps, early-exit gates (on_fail: stop), conditional steps (run_if), and automatic prior_verdicts passing so later judges see earlier verdicts.
• Reliability built in — reasoning-before-score prompts, JSON-only outputs, multi-sample voting, retries with backoff, model fallbacks, optional response caching, injection-resistant prompt delimiting, and cost/token tracking on every verdict.
• Official provider SDKs — every call goes through the provider's own Python SDK (anthropic, google-genai); each adapter owns its SDK's request/response types entirely, so nothing above it ever has to know.
• Exact request/response logging — see the system prompt, every message, and the exact reply, tokens, cost and latency for every call, gated behind one flag. See Debugging LLM calls.

How it compares

There's no shortage of LLM-evaluation tooling; verdikt's niche is narrow and specific: a small, embeddable Python library — not a service, not a framework you build your whole app around — whose distinct feature is panel-style judging: broadcast to several models, combine them with a real consensus strategy (average, weighted_average, majority_vote, unanimous, consensus_leader), or hand the disagreement to a meta-judge (judge_of_judges) that reads why each model scored the way it did, not just the number. That, plus gated multi-step pipelines, is what the other projects below generally don't do.

Read the row you care about, not the whole table: reaching for deep RAG metrics specifically → Ragas is more mature there; broad agentic/safety benchmarking → Inspect AI has far more built-in evals; you already run Langfuse for tracing → its evals integrate with what you have. verdikt is the pick when you want panel-of-judges consensus and gated pipelines as first-class, typed Python, with nothing else to run.

Comparison verified against each project's own docs/repo as of this writing; these projects move fast, so if something's stale, open an issue.

Core concepts

YAML configuration

A complete reference config covering every judge type, execution mode, and pipeline lives at examples/verdikt.example.yaml (kept valid by the test suite); a runnable script is at examples/quickstart.py. Condensed version:

# verdikt.yaml
providers:
  anthropic: {api_key: ${ANTHROPIC_AGENT_API_KEY}}
  gemini:    {api_key: ${GEMINI_API_KEY}}

cache_path: .verdikt_cache.json        # optional: never pay twice for the same call

judges:
  - name: safety
    type: classifier
    model: anthropic/claude-haiku
    labels: [safe, unsafe]
    fail_on: [unsafe]

  - name: quality_panel            # broadcast to 3 models, meta-judge decides
    type: rubric
    criteria:
      - "Answers the actual question asked"
      - "No factual errors given the context"
    threshold: 0.7
    execution:
      mode: judge_of_judges
      models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, anthropic/claude-haiku, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
      meta_judge: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5

pipelines:
  - name: support_bot_eval
    steps:
      - judge: safety
        on_fail: stop              # don't spend tokens on unsafe output
      - judge: quality_panel       # sees safety's verdict via prior_verdicts
    aggregation: all_pass

vd = Verdikt.from_yaml("verdikt.yaml")
result = await vd.evaluate("support_bot_eval", EvalInput(input=q, output=a))
if not result.passed:
    agent.retry(feedback=result.verdicts[-1].reasoning)

Batch evaluation over a dataset (bounded concurrency; per-item failures become error verdicts, never exceptions):

batch = await vd.evaluate_batch("quality_panel", items, concurrency=8)
print(batch.failed_indices)

Cookbook — every judge type

All judges accept the same EvalInput and return the same Verdict. Each example below shows the config (YAML) and the call.

1. pointwise — score one output

- name: helpfulness
  type: pointwise
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku
  criteria: ["Directly answers the question", "No factual errors"]  # optional
  scale: {min: 1, max: 5}
  threshold: 0.7          # verdict.passed = score >= 0.7
  samples: 3              # optional: 3 runs, median wins (smooths noise)

v = await vd.evaluate("helpfulness", EvalInput(input="What is DNS?", output=answer))
v.score       # 0.75  (normalized 0-1)
v.passed      # True
v.reasoning   # the judge's chain-of-thought

2. reference — compare against a gold answer

- name: correctness
  type: reference
  model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5
  threshold: 0.8

v = await vd.evaluate("correctness", EvalInput(
    input="Capital of Australia?",
    output="It's Canberra.",
    expected_output="Canberra",     # required for this type
))

3. pairwise — A vs B comparison (A/B tests, model comparisons)

- name: ab_test
  type: pairwise
  model: gemini/gemini-2.5-pro
  criteria: ["More helpful", "More accurate"]
  position_swap: true     # default: runs both orders, disagreement -> tie

v = await vd.evaluate("ab_test", EvalInput(
    input="Explain HTTP caching",
    output="-",                              # ignored for pairwise
    candidates=[response_a, response_b],     # exactly 2
))
v.label   # "A" | "B" | "tie"
v.score   # 1.0 / 0.0 / 0.5

4. rubric — G-Eval style, per-criterion grading

- name: support_quality
  type: rubric
  model: gemini/gemini-2.5-pro
  criteria:
    - "Resolves the customer's actual problem"
    - "Tone is professional and empathetic"
    - "No policy violations"
  threshold: 0.7

v = await vd.evaluate("support_quality", EvalInput(input=ticket, output=reply))
v.score                                   # mean of criteria
for c in v.criteria_breakdown:            # per-criterion detail
    print(c.criterion, c.score, c.reasoning)

5. classifier — fixed label set (guardrails, routing)

- name: safety
  type: classifier
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku
  labels: [safe, needs_review, unsafe]
  fail_on: [unsafe]        # verdict.passed = label not in fail_on

v = await vd.evaluate("safety", EvalInput(output=agent_reply))
v.label    # "safe"
v.passed   # True

6–8. RAG judges — rag_faithfulness, rag_context_relevance, rag_answer_relevance

- name: grounded          # is every claim supported by the context?
  type: rag_faithfulness
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku
  threshold: 0.8
- name: ctx_relevance     # was the retrieved context relevant to the question?
  type: rag_context_relevance
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku
- name: ans_relevance     # does the answer address the question?
  type: rag_answer_relevance
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku

inp = EvalInput(
    input="What is our refund window?",
    output="Refunds are accepted within 30 days.",
    context=["Policy doc: customers may return items within 30 days..."],  # required for faithfulness/ctx_relevance
)
v = await vd.evaluate("grounded", inp)

9. trajectory — judge a full agent run

- name: agent_run
  type: trajectory
  model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5
  criteria: ["Task completed", "Tool calls correct and necessary", "No redundant loops"]
  threshold: 0.7

from verdikt import Step

v = await vd.evaluate("agent_run", EvalInput(
    input="Book the cheapest flight BLR->DEL tomorrow",
    output="Booked 6E-204 at 7:10 for Rs 4,250.",
    trajectory=[
        Step(thought="search flights", tool="flight_search",
             tool_input={"from": "BLR", "to": "DEL"}, observation="6E-204 Rs4250; AI-501 Rs6100"),
        Step(thought="cheapest is 6E-204", tool="book",
             tool_input={"flight": "6E-204"}, observation="confirmed"),
    ],
))

10. Your own judge type

See Writing a custom judge below for a full worked example.

Cookbook — every execution mode

Execution modes apply to any judge type (subject to the compatibility matrix below).

single — one model (default)

- name: quick_check
  type: pointwise
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku      # execution block omitted -> single

broadcast + average — mean score across models

- name: quality_panel
  type: pointwise
  execution:
    mode: broadcast
    models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, anthropic/claude-haiku, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
    consensus: average             # default for score judges

v = await vd.evaluate("quality_panel", inp)
v.score                  # mean of the 3 models
v.meta.disagreement      # 0-1; high = models disagree, worth human review
v.sub_verdicts           # each model's individual verdict + reasoning

broadcast + weighted_average — trust some models more

  execution:
    mode: broadcast
    models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
    consensus: weighted_average
    weights: {"anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5": 3.0, "gemini/gemini-2.5-pro": 1.0}

broadcast + majority_vote — label/comparison judges

- name: safety_jury
  type: classifier
  labels: [safe, unsafe]
  fail_on: [unsafe]
  execution:
    mode: broadcast
    models: [anthropic/claude-haiku, anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, gemini/gemini-2.5-flash]
    # consensus omitted -> majority_vote (the default for classifier/pairwise)

broadcast + unanimous — strict gates (all models must agree)

- name: strict_safety
  type: classifier
  labels: [safe, unsafe]
  fail_on: [unsafe]
  execution:
    mode: broadcast
    models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
    consensus: unanimous          # any split verdict -> passed = false

broadcast + consensus_leader — one model decides, others sanity-check

  execution:
    mode: broadcast
    models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, anthropic/claude-haiku, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
    consensus: consensus_leader
    leader: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5   # defaults to first model if omitted
    on_disagreement: accept_leader        # or: fail | escalate | accept_consensus
    disagreement_threshold: 0.25

on_disagreement fires when meta.disagreement exceeds the threshold: accept_leader keeps the leader's verdict, fail forces passed=false, escalate flags the verdict (meta.extra["needs_escalation"]) for human review.

judge_of_judges — a meta-judge weighs arguments, not just votes

- name: final_review
  type: rubric
  criteria: ["Factually correct", "Complete"]
  threshold: 0.7
  execution:
    mode: judge_of_judges
    models: [anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5, anthropic/claude-haiku, gemini/gemini-2.5-pro]
    meta_judge: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5

v = await vd.evaluate("final_review", inp)
v.reasoning       # the meta-judge's explanation of how it weighed each judge
v.sub_verdicts    # the 3 member verdicts it read (scores AND reasoning)

Better than voting when models disagree for different reasons — the meta-judge reads each member's reasoning and discounts weak or generic arguments.

Multi-sample voting — works in any mode

- name: stable_score
  type: pointwise
  model: anthropic/claude-haiku
  samples: 5        # 5 runs per model; median score / majority label

In broadcast mode, samples applies per member model (3 models × 5 samples = 15 calls).

Integration cookbook — plugging verdikt into agents

verdikt has no framework dependency: anywhere you can call an async (or sync) function, you can judge an output. All examples share this setup:

from verdikt import Verdikt, EvalInput

vd = Verdikt.from_yaml("verdikt.yaml")

1. Quality gate in a plain agent loop (judge -> retry with feedback)

async def answer_with_gate(question: str, max_attempts: int = 3) -> str:
    feedback = ""
    for _ in range(max_attempts):
        reply = await my_agent.run(question + feedback)
        v = await vd.evaluate("helpfulness", EvalInput(input=question, output=reply))
        if v.passed:
            return reply
        # verdict reasoning doubles as a self-correction signal
        feedback = f"\n\nYour previous answer was rejected: {v.reasoning}. Fix it."
    return reply  # best effort after retries

2. Safety gate before sending anything to the user

reply = await my_agent.run(user_msg)
v = await vd.evaluate("safety", EvalInput(output=reply))
if not v.passed:
    reply = "Sorry, I can't help with that."

3. Full pipeline as a post-processing step (gates + panel + prior verdicts)

result = await vd.evaluate("support_bot_eval", EvalInput(
    input=user_msg, output=reply, context=retrieved_docs))
if result.stopped_early:              # failed the safety gate, rest was skipped
    escalate_to_human(user_msg, reply, result.verdicts[0].reasoning)
elif not result.passed:
    reply = await my_agent.rewrite(reply, feedback=result.reasoning)

4. Sync codebase (no async)

v = vd.evaluate_sync("helpfulness", EvalInput(input=q, output=a))

5. RAG pipeline — judge groundedness right after generation

docs = retriever.search(question)
answer = await llm.generate(question, docs)
v = await vd.evaluate("grounded", EvalInput(input=question, output=answer, context=docs))
if not v.passed:                       # hallucination detected
    answer = await llm.generate(question, docs, strict_grounding=True)

6. Tool-using agent — judge the whole trajectory, not just the answer

from verdikt import Step

steps = []
for action in agent_run.actions:       # however your framework exposes them
    steps.append(Step(thought=action.thought, tool=action.tool,
                      tool_input=action.args, observation=str(action.result)))

v = await vd.evaluate("agent_run", EvalInput(
    input=task, output=agent_run.final_answer, trajectory=steps))

7. LangGraph — judge as a node with conditional routing

async def judge_node(state):
    v = await vd.evaluate("helpfulness", EvalInput(
        input=state["question"], output=state["draft"]))
    return {"verdict": v}

def route(state):
    return "publish" if state["verdict"].passed else "revise"

graph.add_node("judge", judge_node)
graph.add_conditional_edges("judge", route, {"publish": "publish", "revise": "generate"})

8. Multi-turn chat — judge with conversation history

from verdikt import Message

v = await vd.evaluate("helpfulness", EvalInput(
    output=latest_reply,
    conversation=[Message(role=m["role"], content=m["content"]) for m in history],
))

9. Offline dataset evaluation (nightly evals, before a release)

items = [EvalInput(input=r["question"], output=r["answer"],
                   expected_output=r["gold"]) for r in dataset]
batch = await vd.evaluate_batch("correctness", items, concurrency=8)
pass_rate = 1 - len(batch.failed_indices) / batch.total
for i in batch.failed_indices:
    print(dataset[i]["question"], "->", batch.results[i].reasoning)

10. CI regression test (pytest) — block merges that degrade quality

import pytest
from verdikt import Verdikt, EvalInput

vd = Verdikt.from_yaml("verdikt.yaml")

@pytest.mark.parametrize("case", GOLDEN_CASES)
def test_answer_quality(case):
    answer = my_agent.run_sync(case["question"])
    v = vd.evaluate_sync("correctness", EvalInput(
        input=case["question"], output=answer, expected_output=case["gold"]))
    assert v.passed, v.reasoning

11. A/B testing a prompt or model change (pairwise)

wins = {"A": 0, "B": 0, "tie": 0}
for q in sample_questions:
    old = await agent_v1.run(q)
    new = await agent_v2.run(q)
    v = await vd.evaluate("ab_test", EvalInput(input=q, output="-", candidates=[old, new]))
    wins[v.label] += 1
print(wins)   # ship v2 only if it actually wins

12. Routing on judge disagreement (human-in-the-loop)

v = await vd.evaluate("quality_panel", inp)      # broadcast judge
if v.meta.disagreement and v.meta.disagreement > 0.4:
    queue_for_human_review(inp, v.sub_verdicts)  # models can't agree -> human decides

Judge type × execution mode compatibility

Not every consensus strategy makes sense for every judge type — averaging A/B/tie outcomes or class labels is meaningless. The library enforces this at construction time (bad configs fail fast with the valid options listed) and picks a sensible default consensus per judge type when you don't set one:

Custom judges declare their own compatibility via class attributes: supported_modes, allowed_consensus, default_consensus.

Extending verdikt

verdikt is meant to be embedded — dropped into your own server, agent framework, or eval harness and grown from there. Every piece below is a small interface you implement once and register; nothing requires editing verdikt's own source.

1. Writing a custom judge

A judge is BaseJudge.parse() (turn the model's JSON reply into a Verdict) plus a prompt template. Here's a complete one that flags PII leaked into an AI's output — a type not built in:

# my_judges.py
from pathlib import Path
from typing import Any

from verdikt import BaseJudge, EvalInput, Verdict, register, add_template_dir

# ship pii_check.j2 next to this file; searched before the built-in templates
add_template_dir(Path(__file__).parent / "templates")


@register("pii_check")
class PIIJudge(BaseJudge):
    system_template = None  # simple judge: skip the system/user split (see below), one message
    user_template = "pii_check.j2"
    verdict_type = "label"

    # labels can't be averaged: only vote-style consensus makes sense
    allowed_consensus = ("majority_vote", "unanimous", "consensus_leader")
    default_consensus = "majority_vote"

    def parse(self, data: dict[str, Any], inp: EvalInput) -> Verdict:
        leaked = data.get("categories") or []
        return Verdict(
            judge_name=self.name,
            label="unsafe" if leaked else "safe",
            reasoning=str(data.get("reasoning", "")),
        )

{# templates/pii_check.j2 #}
Scan the AI response below for leaked personal data (emails, phone numbers,
SSNs, card numbers). List every category you find.

AI response:
{{ output }}

Respond with ONLY this JSON:
{"reasoning": "<what you found, if anything>", "categories": ["<category>", ...]}

import my_judges  # runs @register("pii_check") + add_template_dir on import

vd = Verdikt(judges=[
    JudgeConfig(name="pii", type="pii_check", model="anthropic/claude-haiku",
                fail_on=["unsafe"]),
])
v = await vd.evaluate("pii", EvalInput(output=agent_reply))

Skip the template file entirely for smaller judges: reuse a built-in (user_template = "pointwise_user.j2") or override per-config with JudgeConfig(prompt_template="...") — a raw Jinja2 string, no file needed, sent as a single message. ScoreParsingMixin (from verdikt.core.base import ScoreParsingMixin) gives you parse() for free for {reasoning, score, confidence}-shaped replies.

Override required_fields() to validate EvalInput up front (default: ["output"]), or template_context() to add extra variables your template needs. The judge type name ("pii_check" above) is what your YAML type: field or JudgeConfig(type=...) refers to — same mechanism, code or config.

2. Writing a custom LLM client

LLMClient is one async method. Point verdikt at an internal gateway, a local model server, or anything else that can turn (model, messages) into text:

from verdikt import LLMClient, LLMResponse

class MyGatewayClient(LLMClient):
    async def complete(self, model, messages, **kw) -> LLMResponse:
        text = await my_internal_gateway.chat(model, messages)
        return LLMResponse(text=text, model=model)

vd = Verdikt.from_config(cfg, client=MyGatewayClient())

This composes with the built-in reliability wrappers: wrap your client in RetryingClient (backoff + fallback models) or CachingClient (skip duplicate calls) exactly like FrontierClient does — see verdikt/facade.py::_default_client.

3. Plugging in a new provider protocol

If you'd rather stay on FrontierClient's retry/broadcast/caching plumbing but need a provider whose wire protocol verdikt doesn't speak (a different SDK, a custom gateway), implement ProtocolAdapter — the same interface AnthropicAdapter/GeminiAdapter use internally — and register it:

from verdikt import ProtocolAdapter, register_protocol, Verdikt, ProviderConfig

class MyProtocolAdapter(ProtocolAdapter):
    async def complete(self, base_url, api_key, model, messages, temperature,
                        max_tokens, json_mode, params, *, timeout, transport=None):
        text = await my_sdk_client(api_key, base_url).chat(model, messages)
        return text, input_tokens, output_tokens   # your SDK's own types stop here

register_protocol("myproto", MyProtocolAdapter, providers={"myprovider": "https://api.example.com"})

vd = Verdikt(
    judges=[...],
    providers={"myprovider": ProviderConfig(api_key="...")},  # model: "myprovider/..."
)

Only MyProtocolAdapter ever sees your SDK's request/response objects — FrontierClient only sees the (text, input_tokens, output_tokens) tuple, same contract every built-in adapter follows. Register before constructing Verdikt/FrontierClient (adapters resolve lazily on first use, so importing the module that calls register_protocol early is enough).

4. Provider-native params, the system/user split, and prompt caching

Every judge's prompt is two messages, not one: system_template renders whatever comes from JudgeConfig (criteria, rubric, labels, scale, few_shot) — identical on every call to that judge — and user_template renders whatever comes from EvalInput (input, output, context, conversation, trajectory, ...) — different every call. This isn't just tidiness: it's what lets AnthropicAdapter/GeminiAdapter put your judge's instructions in the provider's actual system field instead of burying them inside a "user" message, which both models follow better, and — since the system half is byte-identical across repeated calls to the same judge — it's exactly the shape prompt caching wants.

Anything beyond temperature/max_tokens — top_p, top_k, stop_sequences, extended-thinking budgets, tool use, safety settings, whatever a provider adds next — goes on JudgeConfig.llm_params and reaches the SDK call as-is. Each ProtocolAdapter decides what it understands; nothing above it needs to change when a provider ships something new:

JudgeConfig(
    name="strict_check", type="pointwise", model="anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5",
    llm_params={
        "top_p": 0.9,
        "stop_sequences": ["<END>"],
        "cache_system_prompt": True,  # Anthropic only: mark the system block
                                       # cacheable (AnthropicAdapter pops this
                                       # before calling messages.create(); it's
                                       # a verdikt convenience name, not a raw
                                       # Anthropic param). GeminiAdapter drops
                                       # it silently if the same llm_params is
                                       # reused on a gemini/* broadcast member.
    },

Writing your own ProtocolAdapter (§3 above)? Do the same thing: pop any convenience flags you invent out of params before spreading the rest into your SDK call, exactly like AnthropicAdapter.complete() does.

A note on consensus strategies

Consensus strategies (average, majority_vote, ...) are intentionally a fixed, validated set — see Judge type × execution mode compatibility for why some combinations are rejected outright (averaging labels isn't meaningful). For a custom aggregation rule, run broadcast mode and combine verdict.sub_verdicts yourself — each member's score, label, and reasoning are all there.

Architecture at a glance

EvalInput ─▶ BaseJudge.parse()+template ─▶ LLMClient.complete() ─▶ raw JSON ─▶ Verdict
                    │                              │
             @register("type")            RetryingClient ▸ CachingClient ▸ FrontierClient
                    │                              │
              Executor (single /                ProtocolAdapter (per provider SDK)
              broadcast / judge_of_judges)         │
                    │                       register_protocol(...)
            PipelineRunner (multi-step,
            gating, prior_verdicts)

Every layer only depends on the interface below it, not the implementation: Executor doesn't know which judge type it's running, LLMClient callers don't know which provider (or SDK) sits behind it, and PipelineRunner doesn't know what any individual judge does internally. That's what makes each layer independently swappable — write a judge without touching the LLM layer, or a backend without touching judges or pipelines.

Debugging LLM calls

FrontierClient prints the exact request going out (system prompt, every message, temperature/max_tokens/json_mode) and the exact response coming back (text, tokens, cost, latency) to the console, in bordered/colored blocks. It's on by default for now:

export VERDIKT_LOG_LLM_CALLS=0   # turn it off

from verdikt.llm.logging import set_llm_logging

set_llm_logging(False)   # or True — overrides the env var for this process

Verdikt(...) also accepts client=FrontierClient(log_calls=False) to control it per client instance.
