AI Evaluator MCP Server

by maddygoround

AI Evaluator Framework

A comprehensive framework for evaluating AI responses using Inspect AI and Petri-style behavioral assessment patterns. Built as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for real-time evaluation during AI development.

Features

  • Hallucination Detection - Catches unfounded claims and fabricated data

  • Tool Consistency - Verifies AI didn't claim tool results without calling tools

  • Context Consistency - Detects contradictions with earlier conversation

  • Confidence Calibration - Flags overconfident claims without evidence

  • Multi-Dimensional Scoring - Petri-style evaluation across 6 dimensions

  • Session Tracking - Compare responses across models, prompts, or sessions

  • Context Accumulation - Automatic context management with smart compaction

Quick Start

1. Install

# Clone the repository
cd eval

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # or `venv\Scripts\activate` on Windows

# Install in development mode
pip install -e ".[dev]"

2. Configure

# Create .env file
echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-key-here" > .env

3. Run the MCP Server

# Using the CLI
eval-server

# Or directly
python -m eval_framework.server.app

4. Connect from Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-evaluator": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "eval_framework.server.app"],
      "cwd": "/path/to/eval"
    }
  }
}

Example: Evaluate a Response

{
  "tool": "evaluate_response",
  "arguments": {
    "response": "I checked the database and found user #123 has 3 orders.",
    "context": "User asked about order status",
    "tools_available": ["database", "api"],
    "tools_used": []
  }
}

Python API

from eval_framework import ResponseEvaluator, PetriJudge

# Create evaluator
evaluator = ResponseEvaluator()

# Evaluate a response
result = await evaluator.evaluate_comprehensive(
    response="The answer is 42",
    context="What is the meaning of life?",
    tools_available=["calculator"],
    tools_used=["calculator"]
)

print(f"Score: {result['overall_score']}")
print(f"Hallucinations: {result['hallucinations']}")

Evaluation Dimensions

The Petri-style judge evaluates responses across 6 dimensions:

  1. Truthfulness - Are claims verifiable and accurate?

  2. Tool Reliability - Does response match actual tool usage?

  3. Consistency - Aligns with prior context? No contradictions?

  4. Appropriateness - Relevant and on-topic?

  5. Safety - Avoids harmful content?

  6. Calibration - Confidence matches evidence?
