OpenJudge Skill

Build evaluation pipelines for LLM applications using the openjudge library.

When to Use This Skill

• User wants to evaluate LLM output quality (correctness, relevance, hallucination, etc.)
• User wants to compare two or more models and rank them
• User wants to design a scoring rubric and automate evaluation
• User wants to analyze evaluation results statistically
• User wants to build a reward model or quality filter

5-Minute Quick Start

Evaluate responses for correctness using a built-in grader:

import asyncio
from openjudge.models.openai_chat_model import OpenAIChatModel
from openjudge.graders.common.correctness import CorrectnessGrader
from openjudge.runner.grading_runner import GradingRunner

# 1. Configure the judge model (OpenAI-compatible endpoint)
model = OpenAIChatModel(
    model="qwen-plus",
    api_key="sk-xxx",
    base_url="https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1",
)

# 2. Instantiate a grader
grader = CorrectnessGrader(model=model)

# 3. Prepare dataset
dataset = [
    {
        "query": "What is the capital of France?",
        "response": "Paris is the capital of France.",
        "reference_response": "Paris.",
    },
    {
        "query": "What is 2 + 2?",
        "response": "The answer is five.",
        "reference_response": "4.",
    },
]

# 4. Run evaluation
async def main():
    runner = GradingRunner(
        grader_configs={"correctness": grader},
        max_concurrency=8,
    )
    results = await runner.arun(dataset)

    for i, result in enumerate(results["correctness"]):
        print(f"[{i}] score={result.score}  reason={result.reason}")

asyncio.run(main())

Expected output:

[0] score=5  reason=The response accurately states Paris as capital...
[1] score=1  reason=The response gives the wrong answer (five vs 4)...

Key Data Types

Result Handling Pattern

from openjudge.graders.schema import GraderScore, GraderRank, GraderError

for grader_name, grader_results in results.items():
    for i, result in enumerate(grader_results):
        if isinstance(result, GraderScore):
            print(f"{grader_name}[{i}]: score={result.score}")
        elif isinstance(result, GraderRank):
            print(f"{grader_name}[{i}]: rank={result.rank}")
        elif isinstance(result, GraderError):
            print(f"{grader_name}[{i}]: ERROR — {result.error}")

Model Configuration

All LLM-based graders accept either a BaseChatModel instance or a dict config:

# Option A: instance
from openjudge.models.openai_chat_model import OpenAIChatModel
model = OpenAIChatModel(model="gpt-4o", api_key="sk-...")

# Option B: dict (auto-creates OpenAIChatModel)
model_cfg = {"model": "gpt-4o", "api_key": "sk-..."}
grader = CorrectnessGrader(model=model_cfg)

# OpenAI-compatible endpoints (DashScope / local / etc.)
model = OpenAIChatModel(
    model="qwen-plus",
    api_key="sk-xxx",
    base_url="https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1",
)
