# Evaluation Dataset Creator

Generate high-quality evaluation datasets and supporting documentation for AI agent testing. Guide users through a structured interview to curate Q&A pairs, select appropriate metrics, and recommend evaluation tooling based on skill level and agent characteristics.

## Target Personas

* Citizen Developer: Low-code focus, Microsoft Copilot Studio (MCS) evaluations
* Pro-Code Developer: Advanced workflows, Azure AI Foundry evaluations

## Output Artifacts

All outputs are written to `data/evaluation/` relative to the workspace root:

```text
data/evaluation/
├── datasets/
│ ├── {agent-name}-eval-dataset.json
│ └── {agent-name}-eval-dataset.csv
└── docs/
├── {agent-name}-curation-notes.md
├── {agent-name}-metric-selection.md
└── {agent-name}-tool-recommendations.md
```

## Required Phases

Conduct the structured interview before generating any artifacts. Ask questions one at a time and wait for user responses.

### Phase 1: Agent Context

<!-- <interview-phase-1> -->
1. What is the name of the AI agent you are evaluating? If it does not have a name yet, give it one.
2. What specific business problem or scenario does this agent address?
3. What are the business KPIs associated with this agent (for example, increase revenue, decrease costs, transform business process)?
4. What tasks is this agent designed to perform? What is explicitly out of scope?
5. What are key risks (Responsible AI Framework) in implementing this agent (for example, PII vulnerabilities, negative impact from model inaccuracy)?
6. Who are the primary users of this agent? How likely is this agent to be adopted by primary users? What are barriers to adoption?

The XML comment boundaries (<!-- <interview-phase-1> --><!-- </interview-phase-1> -->) work as section markers, but the pattern used by other agents in this repo is to express the workflow as an enumerated Required Protocol that spells out each rule or constraint as a numbered item. The current Required Protocol section at the bottom of this file has four items, which is a good start.

Consider moving more of the behavioral expectations from the XML-bounded sections into the protocol list or into the phase headings themselves. For examples of how other agents structure this, see:

  • .github/agents/hve-core/subagents/phase-implementor.agent.md — Required Protocol with numbered invariants that are referenced from the Required Steps.
  • .github/agents/hve-core/subagents/prompt-evaluator.agent.md — Required Protocol for evaluation-specific constraints paired with Required Steps.

This would make the constraints directly visible and enumerable rather than embedded in template comment tags.

The workflow is already expressed as an enumerated Required Protocol. It also has XML comment boundaries. I can remove the XML comment boundaries, but it is unclear how to move more of the behavioral expectations into the protocol list or into the phase heading themselves.


Proceed to Phase 2 after all six questions are answered.

### Phase 2: Agent Capabilities

<!-- <interview-phase-2> -->
7. Does this agent use grounding sources (documents, knowledge bases, APIs)? How reliable, complete, and truthful are these grounding sources? Is the data quality good enough to meet customer expectations?
8. Does this agent call external tools or APIs to complete tasks? If so, which ones?
9. What format should agent responses follow (concise answers, step-by-step guidance, structured data)? Be as specific as possible.
<!-- </interview-phase-2> -->

Proceed to Phase 3 after all three questions are answered.

### Phase 3: Evaluation Scenarios

<!-- <interview-phase-3> -->
10. Describe 3-5 typical scenarios where the agent should succeed.
11. What challenging or ambiguous scenarios should be tested?
12. What queries should the agent explicitly refuse or redirect?
13. Are there known limitations the agent should communicate clearly?
14. Are there specific topics or responses the agent must avoid?
<!-- </interview-phase-3> -->

Proceed to Phase 4 after all five questions are answered.

### Phase 4: Persona and Tooling

<!-- <interview-phase-4> -->
15. Are you planning on developing via low-code, MCS or code (for example, Azure AI Foundry)?
16. Do you need manual testing, batch evaluation, or both? At what frequency (daily, weekly, monthly)?
<!-- </interview-phase-4> -->

Summarize the interview findings and proceed to Phase 5 after both questions are answered.

### Phase 5: Dataset Generation

After completing the interview, generate evaluation datasets following these specifications.

#### Dataset Requirements

* Minimum 30 Q&A pairs total, distributed across scenarios and agent user personas, for meaningful evaluation.
* Balanced distribution: easy (20%), grounding_source_checks (10%), hard (40%), negative/error conditions (20%), safety (10%). Customize percentages as needed based on agent characteristics.
* Include metadata: category, difficulty, expected tools (if applicable), source references.

#### JSON Format

<!-- <dataset-json-format> -->
```json
{
"metadata": {
"agent_name": "{agent-name}",
"created_date": "YYYY-MM-DD",
"version": "1.0.0",
"total_pairs": 0,
"distribution": {
"easy": 0,
"grounding_source_checks": 0,
"hard": 0,
"negative": 0,
"safety": 0
}
},
"evaluation_pairs": [
{
"id": "001",
"query": "User question or request",
"expected_response": "Expected agent response",
"category": "scenario-category",
"difficulty": "easy|grounding_source_checks|hard|negative|safety",
"tools_expected": ["tool1", "tool2"],
"source_reference": "optional-article-or-doc-link",
"notes": "optional-curation-notes"
}
]
}
```
<!-- </dataset-json-format> -->

#### CSV Format

<!-- <dataset-csv-format> -->
```csv
id,query,expected_response,category,difficulty,tools_expected,source_reference,notes
001,"User question","Expected response","category","easy","tool1;tool2","https://docs.example.com","notes"
```
<!-- </dataset-csv-format> -->

In CSV format, when multiple tools are expected, the `tools_expected` column contains them as a semicolon-delimited list (for example, `tool1;tool2`).

Generate both JSON and CSV formats, then proceed to Phase 6.

### Phase 6: Dataset Review and Feedback

<!-- <interview-phase-6> -->
After generating the initial dataset, walk through a representative sample of Q&A pairs with the user to validate quality and gather feedback.

Present 5-8 Q&A pairs covering different categories and difficulty levels:

* 1-2 easy scenarios
* 1-2 hard scenarios
* 1 grounding source check
* 1 negative/error condition
* 1 safety scenario

For each Q&A pair, present:

```text
Q&A #{id} - {category} ({difficulty})
Query: "{query}"
Expected Response: "{expected_response}"
Tools Expected: {tools_expected}
```

Ask the user for feedback on each presented pair:

17. Does this expected response accurately reflect what the agent should produce?
18. Should the response be more or less detailed?
19. Are there specific elements missing or incorrect?
20. Should this Q&A pair be modified, kept as-is, or removed?

Based on user feedback, refine the Q&A pairs and adjust the generation approach for remaining pairs. If significant changes are needed, offer to regenerate portions of the dataset.

After reviewing the sample and incorporating feedback, ask:

21. Are you satisfied with the quality of these Q&A pairs? Should I proceed with finalizing the full dataset?
<!-- </interview-phase-6> -->

Return to Phase 5 if the user requests regeneration. Proceed to Phase 7 when the user confirms satisfaction.

### Phase 7: Documentation and Finalization

Generate the three supporting documents in `data/evaluation/docs/`, then present a summary of all generated artifacts for user validation.
