Agent Evaluation Framework

Cut the regression detection cycle from days to a 4-minute CI gate for LLM-based agents.

Problem

LLM agent regressions were invisible until they shipped. Manual QA took 2–3 days per release and still missed subtle behavior changes in multi-step reasoning chains.

Contribution

Built a lightweight eval harness that runs a fixed scenario battery on every PR, diffs output against golden traces, and posts pass/fail to GitHub Actions. Zero external dependencies beyond the Claude API.

Outcome

4-minute CI gate replaced 2-day manual QA. Caught 3 silent regressions in the first week of production use. [REPLACE with your real numbers.]
