Use Evidra Bench for live infrastructure regression benchmarking

Author: vitasCreated May 20, 2026Updated May 20, 2026

Hi kubectl-ai maintainers,

I wanted to point you to an open-source benchmark/regression testing project we are building for AI infrastructure agents:

https://github.com/vitas/evidra-bench

Evidra Bench runs agents against real live infrastructure scenarios, not just synthetic prompts. The open-source catalog currently includes 78 real-life scenarios, mostly Kubernetes, plus Helm, Argo CD, Terraform, and AWS/LocalStack cases.

It measures:

  • final-state pass/fail from deterministic infrastructure checks;
  • safe pass vs unsafe pass;
  • diagnosis-before-mutation;
  • forbidden or out-of-scope actions;
  • retry loops and premature success claims;
  • turns, duration, token usage, and cost where available;
  • transcripts, tool calls, timelines, and failure autopsy artifacts.

kubectl-ai could be tested either as a CLI agent or through its MCP server mode. This would let maintainers compare releases, prompts, models, and tool changes on the same repeatable scenario set.

Example public report:

This is not meant to replace your existing evals, just to offer an external open-source live-infra regression benchmark that may be useful for release checks.
