Introduction to Agent Evaluation

🎯 Why Evaluate Agents?

AI agents operate autonomously, making evaluation critical for reliability. Unlike traditional models, agents take actions, use tools, and make decisions. We need comprehensive metrics to measure success, efficiency, quality, and safety across diverse tasks.

💡
Key Insight

Good metrics help identify failures, optimize costs, and build trust in autonomous systems.
