Problem and solution

01/Problem

Most teams can't tell whether their LLM feature got better or worse after a change. Evals are scattered across notebooks, dashboards, and vibes.

02/Solution

Quiver is a small CLI + dashboard that turns evals into CI gates. Define a rubric, write cases, run on every PR, review failures in one place.

03/How it works

The system, end to end.

  1. 01next →

    Author

    Write eval cases + rubrics.

  2. 02next →

    Run

    Execute locally or in CI.

  3. 03next →

    Compare

    Diff results against the last green.

  4. 04next →

    Gate

    Block merges on regression.

  5. 05loop

    Review

    Annotate failures for the next pass.

04/Architecture

Components and data flow.

How the moving parts fit together. Solid arrows are synchronous calls; dashed arrows are queued or batched.

06/Engineering decisions

What we picked, and why.

  1. 01

    Code-first cases

    Choice

    Cases as Python + YAML, not a web form

    Alternatives

    • Web-only authoring

    Why

    Version control and reviewability beat any UI for eval authoring.

07/Evaluation

What we measured.

  • 01

    2.4k

    Eval runs / week

  • 02

    <1d

    Median regression catch

  • 03

    2.1%

    False positive gate

08/Challenges

What almost broke us.

  • 01

    Judge drift

    What happened

    LLM judge scores drifted over time.

    What we did

    Pinned judge model + monthly calibration set.

09/Results

Caught 14 regressions pre-merge in the first quarter across 6 product teams.

10/Future improvements

  • ›Multi-judge consensus
  • ›Eval coverage reports
