Phoenix Evals

Build evaluators for AI/LLM applications. Code first, LLM for nuance, validate against humans.

Workflows

Starting Fresh: observe-tracing-setup → error-analysis → axial-coding → evaluators-overview

Building Evaluator: fundamentals → common-mistakes-python → evaluators-{code|llm}-{python|typescript} → validation-evaluators-{python|typescript}

RAG Systems: evaluators-rag → evaluators-code-* (retrieval) → evaluators-llm-* (faithfulness)

Production: production-overview → production-guardrails → production-continuous

Reference Categories

Prefix	Description
fundamentals-*	Types, scores, anti-patterns
observe-*	Tracing, sampling
error-analysis-*	Finding failures
axial-coding-*	Categorizing failures
evaluators-*	Code, LLM, RAG evaluators
experiments-*	Datasets, running experiments
validation-*	Validating evaluator accuracy against human labels
production-*	CI/CD, monitoring

Key Principles

Principle	Action
Error analysis first	Can't automate what you haven't observed
Custom > generic	Build from your failures
Code first	Deterministic before LLM
Validate judges	>80% TPR/TNR
Binary > Likert	Pass/fail, not 1-5
