Evaluation¶
Treat the privacy-review agent like any other piece of code. Declare cases, run them, read the report. Tulip ships a small, dependency-free harness so you don't need an external eval framework for the common cases.
EvalCasedeclares prompt plus expected substrings (positive or negative).EvalRunnerruns the agent against every case.EvalReportsummarises pass/fail counts and an average score.
Here WARDEN — a tier-1 data-access reviewer — classifies each
data-handling request as ALLOW or BLOCK. The suite pins a
known-disallowed PII export, a known-allowed aggregate report, and a
negative case that guards against the agent inventing a regulation
citation no facts support (OWASP LLM09, Misinformation). Run it on every
prompt or model change before it reaches production.
Run it (defaults to the bundled mock model; set TULIP_MODEL_PROVIDER to openai / anthropic for a live model):

"""Notebook 55: Evaluation — regression-test a privacy-review agent on known requests.
Treat the privacy-review agent (WARDEN, the tier-1 data-access reviewer)
like any other policy rule: it gets a regression suite. Declare
known-disallowed and known-allowed data-handling requests as cases, run
them on every change, read the report. A prompt or model swap that
quietly starts approving exports of raw customer PII — or inventing a
specific regulation citation that no facts support (OWASP LLM09,
Misinformation) — fails the suite before it reaches production. Tulip
ships a small, dependency-free harness so you don't need an external
eval framework for the common cases.
- EvalCase declares a request prompt plus expected substrings (the
decision it must reach — or the claims it must not invent).
- EvalRunner runs the agent against every case.
- EvalReport summarises pass/fail counts and an average score.
