Add LLM chat benchmark via Coval MODEL_TYPE_CHAT simulator#568bnhopkins wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
Introduces a new LLM benchmark that fetches instruction-following scores from Coval's chat simulator, mirroring the S2S fetch pattern. Measures instruction adherence identically (YES/NO/UNKNOWN per conversation, aggregated as a pass rate). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

WalkthroughThe change adds an LLM benchmark with four registered chat models and shared instruction-following metrics. It adds Coval API settings for provider agent IDs, metric and test set IDs, fetch intervals, and staleness limits. A fetch pipeline retrieves completed Coval runs, maps verdicts to result rows, writes run data, refreshes statistics, and reports provider status. The CLI exposes scheduled and targeted backfill execution through Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The new LLM benchmark path can fail to persist results because database and API contracts do not yet accept the LLM benchmark type, and retries or interruptions can create duplicate or stranded benchmark runs. These correctness and availability risks should be fixed before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Every provider reports stale and the command fails with "llm fetch failed for all providers", which hides the real cause.The S2S aggregate rejects blank values explicitly (

Curious about the page size logic here:
page_size=page_size if only_run_ids else WINDOW_PAGE_SIZE,When --coval-run-id is passed, only_run_ids is truthy, so this resolves to page_size (the CLI default of 100). But what if someone passes --page-size 50? That value gets shadowed by the CLI default of 100 before it reaches this line.
More importantly: is the intent here to use the user-specified page size during backfill, or to force WINDOW_PAGE_SIZE (10) for backfill searches? If it's the former, the conditional seems backwards — it'd be page_size=page_size regardless. If the latter, the CLI --page-size flag is misleading since it only applies to the non-backfill path.
Either way, the current behavior means backfill always uses page size 10, which is 10× slower than the documented default. Worth a quick sanity check?

There was a problem hiding this comment.
[Suggestion] This bare except Exception swallows any failure to read the manifest (a typo in the path, a missing file, a permissions error) and persists the string "unknown" as the dataset sha256, which future queries will treat as a real value. Would it be clearer to follow the maybe_ convention here, e.g. maybe_dataset_sha256() -> str | None that returns None on failure, so callers can decide whether to log or fall back? At minimum, a logger.debug or logger.warning in the except block would make the sentinel traceable.

[Suggestion] This is a timeout in seconds, but nothing in the signature says so. Would a named constant such as client_timeout_seconds = 30.0 (module level, next to WINDOW_PAGE_SIZE) make the unit obvious to the next reader?

[Suggestion] window_hours * 3600 hides a unit conversion in the call site. Would a named constant like SECONDS_PER_HOUR = 3600 (or HOURS_TO_SECONDS) keep the math self-documenting, in line with the _seconds suffix convention used elsewhere in this file?

[Nit] Text is cheap: would for run in raw: be clearer than for r in raw:? The loop body builds a run right away, so the short name saves little.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
[Nit] This docstring is a noun phrase rather than a complete sentence, and attr is an abbreviation (attribute). A few of the new docstrings share this style (the CovalRun docstring, """SHA-256 of the packaged LLM manifest...""", """YES -> 100.0, NO -> 0.0, UNKNOWN -> no row.""", and the recent_completed_runs docstring). Would phrasing them as full sentences, e.g. """One LLM chat provider: the Settings attribute holding its Coval agent id, plus display strings.""", keep documentation generation and grepping consistent across the file?
