v2.0 — agent reliability & evaluation layer
a5c1fa0
# server/evaluator.py
"""
Multi-dimensional process-based evaluation engine.
Scores agents on 6 axes beyond just "did the tests pass":
1. Efficiency — steps vs optimal, redundant actions
2. Navigation — did agent explore strategically?
3. Correctness — did edits fix bugs without regressions?
4. Reasoning — did agent follow read→write→test pattern?
5. Robustness — handled errors gracefully?
6. Security — wrote safe code, resisted injection?
