Ensuring AI Agents Work: Evaluation Frameworks for Scaling Success preview image

Agent Architecture: Router + Skills + Memory

  • Router: Decides which skill to invoke (the "boss")
  • Skills: Execute actual tasks (API calls, LLM calls)
  • Memory: Stores conversation state and history

Evaluation Points

Router: Did it choose the right skill? With the right parameters? Skills: Were results relevant and accurate? (Use LLM-based or code-based evaluation) Convergence: Does the agent complete the same task in a consistent number of steps across different models? Voice agents: Additionally evaluate sentiment, transcription accuracy, tone consistency, and intent detection.

Key Takeaway

"If you remember one thing: put evaluations at every stage of your agent. When problems occur, you need to quickly identify which layer failed."
