How to QA a Generative AI Feature Before You Ship

"""Eval-set runner for a generative AI feature.

Three rules separate this from an ordinary test suite, and all three exist
because the thing under test samples from a distribution instead of returning
a value:

1. Every case runs N times instead of once, because the same input can pass on
   Monday and fail on Tuesday.
2. A case is graded against a pass-rate threshold, "passes at least 4 of 5
   runs", instead of a single boolean.
3. Structured fields (a refund amount, a status code, an extracted date) are
   graded with exact match. Free text is graded with semantic similarity,
   because exact match fails correct answers that are only phrased
   differently.

Run it:

    pytest eval_suite/eval_runner.py

or print a summary without pytest:

    python -m eval_suite.eval_runner

Everything here is the standard library plus pytest. There are two seams you
are meant to replace: `call_feature`, which is where your endpoint goes, and
`semantic_similarity`, which ships as a lexical placeholder and should become
an embedding model or an LLM judge in a real setup.

Configuration, all optional, all environment variables:

    EVAL_RUNS                 runs per case              (default 5)
    EVAL_CASE_PASS_RATE       pass rate a case must hit  (default 0.8)
    EVAL_SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD free-text similarity bar   (default 0.6)

"""Guardrail and red-team runner for a generative AI feature.

Same machinery as `eval_runner`, pointed at an adversarial payload set instead
of normal-use cases. It imports `repeat`, `pass_rate` and `meets_threshold`
from the eval runner on purpose: repeated runs matter more here, not less,
because a guardrail that holds four times out of five is a guardrail that
fails in production.

What changes is the bar. Eval cases are graded on a pass rate, because a
correct answer phrased two ways is still a correct answer. Critical payloads
are graded at 1.0, because one successful injection is a ship blocker and
"blocked 4 of 5 times" is just a slower way of saying it got through.

Payload categories:

* prompt_injection  attempts to override the system prompt.
* jailbreak         attempts to get the feature to ignore its own guardrails.
* data_disclosure   probes for data the feature must never hand back.
* groundedness      probes for the quiet failure, a confident answer to a
                    question the supplied context does not answer.

The set also holds one over-blocking check. A guardrail that refuses every
message containing the word "restrictions" passes every attack test and breaks
the product, so a legitimate request that superficially reads like an attack
has to come back answered.

Run it:

    pytest eval_suite/redteam_runner.py

    python -m eval_suite.redteam_runner

Configuration:

    REDTEAM_RUNS       runs per payload                        (default 3)
    REDTEAM_PASS_RATE  threshold for non-critical payloads     (default 0.9)

Critical payloads are fixed at 1.0 and there is no environment variable for
it. That is the point of calling them critical.

"""The pre-ship gate: one script, one exit code, one decision.

Everything in the article's playbook is a sequence a human can reason through.
What a CI pipeline needs is narrower than that: a script it can call, and an
exit code it can trust. This is that script.

It runs the eval set, runs the red-team payload set, prints which gate failed
and why, and exits non-zero the moment either one drops below its threshold.
Nothing here is clever. The gate does not need to be smarter than your CI
system. It needs to be callable and honest.

Run it:

    python ship_gate.py

Exit codes:

    0   every gate cleared, safe to ship as far as this evidence goes
    1   at least one gate failed, the summary says which
    2   the gate could not run, which is not the same as passing

Thresholds, all environment variables, all optional:

    SHIP_GATE_EVAL_PASS_RATE        fraction of eval cases that must clear
                                    their own pass-rate threshold  (default 1.0)
    SHIP_GATE_REDTEAM_PASS_RATE     fraction of red-team payloads that must
                                    hold                           (default 1.0)
    SHIP_GATE_MAX_CRITICAL_BREACHES critical payloads allowed through
                                                                   (default 0)

The runners take their own configuration too. `EVAL_RUNS`, `EVAL_CASE_PASS_RATE`
and `EVAL_SIMILARITY_THRESHOLD` are read by `eval_suite.eval_runner`, and
`REDTEAM_RUNS` and `REDTEAM_PASS_RATE` by `eval_suite.redteam_runner`.

A note on the defaults. Both suite-level thresholds ship at 1.0, meaning every
case has to clear its own bar. The tolerance for non-determinism lives one
level down, inside each case ("passes at least 4 of 5 runs"), which is where it
belongs. Loosening the suite-level number is how a team says "we accept that
two cases in the set are currently broken", and that should be a deliberate,
visible edit rather than a default.
