AgentRegress is the missing layer between your observability tool and your deploy pipeline. It is not a tracing tool. It is not a dashboard. It does one thing: it tests your agent and blocks bad deploys.

Install

pip install agentregress
# or
uv add agentregress

For Langfuse integration:

pip install "agentregress[langfuse]"

5-Minute Quickstart

1. Write a policy

Policies live in your repo as YAML files. Anyone can write them.

# policies/support.yaml
policies:
  - id: no_repeat_info_ask
    severity: critical
    text: >
      If the customer has already provided a piece of information
      (name, account number, email), the agent must not ask for it again.

  - id: no_price_without_api
    severity: critical
    text: >
      The agent must never state a specific price without first calling
      the pricing API in the current conversation.

2. Score a trace

export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...

# Score a trace exported from Langfuse
agentregress score --trace ./exports/run-4821.json --policies ./policies/

# Output:
# ✗ run-4821: FAIL
#   Policy violated: no_repeat_info_ask (critical)
#   Turn 7: Agent asked for account number (previously given at turn 2)
#   Confidence: high

3. Write a test

# tests/no_repeat_account_ask_001.yaml
test:
  id: no_repeat_account_ask_001
  severity: critical

  persona: >
    A frustrated customer who wants to upgrade their plan.
    Has account number A-7291. Gets annoyed if asked twice.

  goal: >
    Upgrade from Basic to Pro plan.

  script:
    - user: "Hi, I want to upgrade my plan"
    - user: "My account number is A-7291"
    - persona_driven: true           # LLM plays the user from here
    - user: "Can you confirm the price?"

  checks:
    - policy: no_repeat_info_ask
    - policy: no_price_without_api

  runs: 10
  pass_threshold: 0.8

4. Run against your agent

# Against an HTTP endpoint
agentregress test --suite ./tests/ --agent-url http://localhost:8000/chat

# Against a subprocess (stdin/stdout JSON protocol)
agentregress test --suite ./tests/ --agent-cmd "python my_agent.py"

# Output:
# AgentRegress — 2 tests
#
# ✓ no_repeat_account_ask_001    9/10 passed  (threshold: 8/10)
# ✗ no_price_without_api_001     3/10 passed  (threshold: 8/10)  ← REGRESSION
#
# Result: 1 failure. Exit code 1.

5. Block bad deploys in CI

# .github/workflows/agent-eval.yml
name: Agent Tests
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: agentregress/agentregress@v1
        with:
          suite: ./tests
          agent-cmd: "python my_agent.py"
          severity: critical,functional
        env:
          ANTHROPIC_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}

Agent Protocol

HTTP (--agent-url)

AgentRegress sends a POST request with the conversation:

{
  "messages": [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Hi, I want to upgrade"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "Sure! What's your account number?"}
  ]
}

Expected response:

{"response": "Your account has been upgraded to Pro."}

OpenAI-compatible endpoints (/v1/chat/completions) are auto-detected.

Subprocess (--agent-cmd)

Your agent reads one JSON line from stdin and writes one JSON line to stdout:

# my_agent.py
import json, sys

data = json.load(sys.stdin)
messages = data["messages"]
new_message = data["new_message"]

response = call_your_agent(messages, new_message)
print(json.dumps({"response": response}))

---

Configuration

# agentregress.yaml
agent:
  command: "python agent/main.py"   # or url: http://localhost:8000/chat
  timeout: 60                        # seconds per agent turn

scoring:
  model: claude-haiku-4-5-20251001  # LLM judge model

testing:
  default_runs: 10
  default_pass_threshold: 0.8
  concurrency: 4

sources:
  langfuse:
    project: my-support-agent
    # Keys via: LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY, LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY

---

Supported Trace Sources

Supported JSON formats: plain messages array, OpenAI chat completions response, Anthropic messages response, Langfuse export.
