LLM-Wiki Eval Tooling

Goal

Turn LLM-Wiki usefulness, retrieval quality, grounding, security and maintenance questions into measurable tests, scorecards and repeatable CI/review gates.

Use references/docs/18-evaluation-methodology.md as the reference methodology for metric definitions, experiment design, dataset construction, CI strategy and rollout.

When to use

• The user asks which eval framework, dataset format, scorecard, or CI gate fits their LLM-Wiki (e.g. "should we use Ragas or promptfoo", "what does a retrieval eval set look like").
• The user wants to prove or disprove a claim such as "the wiki saves time" or "hybrid retrieval improved answers" with measurable tests.
• The user needs to design PR-time, nightly, or release-time CI gates for retrieval, grounding, or security regressions.
• The user needs a red-team/prompt-injection test plan or a human calibration workflow for LLM judges.
• Route to llm-wiki-eval instead when the user wants an actual pilot run executed, not tool/format selection.

Inputs

• Wiki path and evaluation scope.
• User claim to test, such as “the wiki saves time” or “hybrid retrieval improved answers”.
• Recent real questions/tasks or production traces.
• Retrieval layer details.
• Model/provider policy.
• Desired tools: Ragas, promptfoo, DeepEval, TruLens, LangSmith, OpenAI Evals/API Evals, Phoenix/Arize, pytrec_eval, custom scripts.
• Security constraints and risk tier.

Procedure

1. Pick evaluation layer

Layer	Question	Tools/metrics
Retrieval	Did we find the right wiki/source pages?	recall@k, MRR, nDCG, qrels, hit/miss labels, pytrec_eval, Ragas context precision/recall.
Grounding	Is the answer supported by sources?	citation coverage, unsupported-claim rate, claim audit, Ragas/DeepEval faithfulness, TruLens groundedness.
Answer quality	Does the answer solve the task?	human rubric, pairwise preference, model-graded rubric, correctness/completeness/actionability.
Wiki usefulness	Did the wiki reduce work?	retrieval hit rate, answer reuse, read/write ratio, output beyond vault, time saved estimate.
Prompt/model regression	Did behavior change after prompt/model edits?	promptfoo, DeepEval, LangSmith evals, snapshot tests, PromptEval-style prompt variants.
Safety	Can malicious sources or prompts bypass policy?	promptfoo red-team, indirect prompt injection tests, PII/secret canaries, OWASP-aligned fixtures.
Operational health	Is the wiki alive and trusted?	wiki-lint, stale-page count, review backlog, provenance coverage, broken links.

2. Choose the tool stack

Need	Default recommendation
Fully open-source lean baseline	pytrec_eval + Ragas + promptfoo + custom wiki-lint/claim-audit scripts.
Python unit-test ergonomics	DeepEval plus custom tests.
Trace-level RAG introspection	TruLens.
Managed datasets, experiments and annotation queues	LangSmith.
Production observability	Phoenix/Arize, LangSmith, TruLens/OpenTelemetry or existing APM.
Fine-grained RAG diagnostics	RAGChecker-style analysis after basic gates exist.
Calibrated judge training with synthetic data	ARES-style workflow after human labels exist.
OpenAI-native eval workflows	OpenAI Evals/API Evals only after checking current deprecation/platform state.

Do not require every tool. Pick the smallest stack that answers the user's evaluation question.

3. Build an eval set

Use 10-20 real questions for a pilot and expand only after the first run. For serious evaluation, build 200-300 examples plus a high-stakes slice.

Record each item:

id: ""
question: ""
query_type: exact|conceptual|synthesis|multi-hop|recent|sensitive
expected_answer_traits: []
required_pages: []
required_sources: []
expected_passages: []
forbidden_sources: []
required_filters: {}
gold_answer_points: []
freshness_sla_days: 0
sensitivity: public|internal|sensitive|regulated|unknown
risk_tier: low|medium|high|critical
answer_type: factual|synthesis|comparison|decision|debugging|planning
must_cite_sources: true

Use synthetic generation only to expand coverage. Do not use synthetic questions alone to justify adoption.

4. Add qrels and support labels

Use TREC-style qrels for retrieval:

relevance:
  wiki/page.md#heading: 3
  raw/source.pdf#p12: 2
  wiki/related.md#section: 1

Use support labels for grounding:

support_level: extracted|inferred|ambiguous|synthesis|unsupported|conflicting

5. Compare baselines

Use at least two modes when possible:

Mode	Purpose
no-wiki	Baseline answer using only general model/context.
raw-RAG/search only	Measures whether precompiled wiki pages add value.
wiki-grep	Minimal LLM-Wiki baseline.
wiki-hybrid	Tests semantic/hybrid upgrade.
wiki-hybrid-rerank	Tests reranker value.
wiki-graph	Tests graph-aware upgrade.

Do not claim a stack is better unless the eval set represents the user's real work.

6. Define gates by risk tier

Example gates:

retrieval:
  recall_at_10_min: 0.85
  mrr_min: 0.70
  ndcg_at_10_min: 0.80
grounding:
  citation_coverage_min: 0.90
  unsupported_claim_rate_max: 0.05
security:
  prompt_injection_success_rate_max: 0.05
  pii_secret_leaks_max: 0
  cross_tenant_leaks_max: 0
operations:
  stale_tier1_pages_max_pct: 5
  median_review_age_days_max: 7
  broken_verified_links_max: 0

For early pilots, report gates without failing CI until the team agrees thresholds are fair.

7. Plan CI/review workflow

PR-time checks:

• deterministic lint;
• broken links/citations;
• retrieval smoke set;
• promptfoo quality subset;
• secret/PII scan;
• no critical unsupported-claim regressions.

Nightly checks:

• full retrieval eval;
• full grounding eval;
• prompt-injection red team;
• stale-page report;
• review backlog report;
• latency/cost trend report.

Release checks:

• with-wiki vs without-wiki comparison;
• retrieval ablations for major index changes;
• human calibration review;
• security sign-off for public/team deployments.

8. Add human calibration

Monthly sample:

• 25 passing examples;
• 25 failing examples;
• 25 judge/human disagreements;
• 25 high-risk examples.

Use a rubric:

correctness: 1-5
completeness: 1-5
groundedness: 1-5
citation_quality: 1-5
actionability: 1-5
risk: low|medium|high|critical
reviewer_notes: ""

Use human review to calibrate LLM judges and thresholds.

9. Report actionably

Every eval report should include:

• what changed;
• what improved;
• what regressed;
• examples of misses;
• likely root causes;
• next fix;
• whether the next fix is schema, retrieval, ingestion, prompt, review process, security or data policy.

10. Use templates

Recommended templates:

• references/templates/retrieval-eval-set.yaml for retrieval qrels and gates.
• references/templates/eval-scorecard.yaml for multi-layer scorecards.
• references/templates/promptfoo-llm-wiki.yaml for CI/rubric/security eval configuration.
• references/templates/llm-wiki-evals.github-actions.yml for a GitHub Actions starter workflow.

Safety gates

• Do not optimize for note count, graph density or other vanity metrics.
• Do not use synthetic questions alone to justify adoption.
• Do not run evals on sensitive material through cloud tools without policy approval.
• Do not hide examples of failed queries; they are the most useful output.
• Do not claim external benchmarks prove the user's local wiki will work.
• Do not rely exclusively on LLM judges; keep human calibration.
• Do not compare eval runs across changed datasets without recording dataset revision.
