youBencha is a developer-first CLI framework for evaluating AI-powered coding agents. It provides a structured, reproducible way to evaluate how well AI agents perform real-world coding tasks.
Organizations using AI coding agents face several challenges:
Lack of objective measurement - How do you know if the agent did a good job?
No standardized evaluation - Different agents produce different formats, making comparison difficult
Regression detection - How do you ensure new model versions don’t break existing capabilities?
Quality assessment - Beyond “does it compile?”, how do you evaluate code quality?
Cost tracking - Understanding token usage and execution time across evaluations
youBencha provides:
Agent-agnostic architecture through pluggable adapters
Flexible evaluation with built-in and custom evaluators
Reproducible results via standardized logging (youBencha Log format)
Comprehensive reporting with metrics and human-readable insights
Pipeline extensibility through pre-execution and post-evaluation hooks
Time-series analysis capabilities for regression detection and trend tracking
AI Engineers
Quick validation during prompt engineering. Debug agent failures with full context (logs, diffs, metrics). Iterate rapidly on agent configurations.
Development Teams
Cross-test comparison to identify hardest tasks. Pattern recognition for common failure modes. Aggregate metrics (pass rate, similarity scores, costs).
Organizations
Track performance across model/prompt updates. Detect quality degradation early. Cost optimization and ROI tracking.
Standardized evaluation pipeline that works with any agent
Pluggable evaluators for different quality dimensions (correctness, style, scope, similarity)
Reproducible execution with isolated workspaces and comprehensive logging
Flexible reporting from single-run feedback to time-series analysis
Extensible architecture supporting custom evaluators and workflows
