在 Potato 中對 AI 智慧體做 MT-Bench 風格的評分量表評估
用 Potato 的 rubric_eval 搭建多準則評分量表評估:自定義準則、可配置的評分檔位和維度權重,用於系統地評估 AI 智慧體。
什麼是評分量表評估
評分量表評估是一種結構化的評分方式:標註者按照一套預先定義的量表,在若干個相互獨立的準則上給輸出打分。用過 MT-Bench 的人對此不陌生。你問的不再是“這個回覆好不好”,而是“它在有用性上好不好?準確性呢?連貫性呢?安全性呢?”每個準則各自得到一個評分,合起來構成一份品質畫像。
對智慧體評估來說,這能抓住單一分數漏掉的細節。一個智慧體可以正確但低效(答案對,用了 30 步,其實 5 步就夠),可以安全但沒用(拒絕了那些本可以完成任務的動作),可以快但粗糙,也可以周全但囉嗦。一個數字會把這些全都壓平。評分量表把它們保留下來,並且告訴你該改什麼,而不只是差多少。
評分量表評估介面以多準則網格的形式呈現,便於系統地評估:

rubric_eval 方案
Potato 的 rubric_eval 標註方案讓你定義:
- 自定義準則:任意數量的評估維度,每個都有名稱和描述
- 評分量表:1-5、1-7、1-10,或任意自定義量表
- 檔位描述:說明每個準則的每一個評分檔位分別代表什麼(錨定量表)
- 可選的總體品質分:一行彙總評分,記錄標註者的整體印象
- 維度權重:可選的權重,用於計算加權總分
介面就是一個網格:準則排在左側,評分按鈕橫向排開,懸停時會顯示對應檔位的描述。標註者可以按任意順序給準則打分,提交前也可以修改。完整的方案參考見評分量表評估文件。
不同智慧體類型的準則示例
編碼智慧體(Claude Code、Aider、SWE-Agent)
| 準則 | 衡量什麼 |
|---|---|
| 正確性 | 程式碼是否解決了所描述的問題? |
| 程式碼品質 | 程式碼是否整潔、易讀、符合語言習慣? |
| 效率 | 智慧體所用的步數是否合理? |
| 文件 | 改動是否通過註釋或提交資訊作了說明? |
| 錯誤處理 | 程式碼是否妥善處理了邊界情況和異常? |
網頁瀏覽智慧體(WebArena、VisualWebArena)

對話智慧體(ChatGPT、Claude、自建)
| 準則 | 衡量什麼 |
|---|---|
| 有用性 | 對使用者真正的需求來說,這個回覆有多大用處? |
| 準確性 | 其中的事實性陳述是否正確? |

| 指令遵循 | 回覆是否遵守了使用者給出的具體指令和約束? |
逐步配置
第 1 步:確定評估準則
先列出對你這類智慧體真正重要的品質維度。一份好的評分量表有 3 到 7 個準則。少於 3 個就失去了用量表的意義;多於 7 個標註者會疲勞,資料品質隨之下降。
本教程中我們為一個編碼智慧體搭一份 5 準則的量表。
第 2 步:寫檔位描述
錨定量表能大幅提升標註者間一致性。與其讓標註者自己猜“正確性給 3 分”是什麼意思,不如把每一檔都寫清楚。
下面是這份編碼智慧體量表的檔位描述:
正確性:
- 1:程式碼完全沒有觸及問題,或者引入了新的 bug
- 2:部分解決了問題,但存在明顯的功能性錯誤
- 3:解決了主要問題,但在邊界情況上失敗或有小 bug
- 4:正確解決了問題,只剩下無關緊要的小問題
- 5:完全正確,涵蓋所有邊界情況
程式碼品質:
- 1:無法閱讀,風格不統一,沒有結構
- 2:勉強可讀,但風格或設計問題明顯
- 3:品質可以接受,遵循了語言的基本約定
- 4:整潔、結構良好,命名和組織都不錯
- 5:優秀,符合語言習慣、註釋充分、易於維護
效率:
- 1:路徑極其繞,大量步驟白費
- 2:明顯低效,有重複勞動或不必要的探索
- 3:有些無用功,但整體思路合理
- 4:路徑高效,只有個別多餘步驟
- 5:最優或接近最優的解題路徑
文件:
- 1:改動沒有任何說明,也沒有註釋
- 2:說明極簡,漏掉了關鍵細節
- 3:對改了什麼作了足夠的說明
- 4:對改了什麼、為什麼改都作了很好的說明
- 5:說明詳盡,包含背景、理由和注意事項
錯誤處理:
- 1:沒有錯誤處理,遇到意外輸入就會崩潰
- 2:錯誤處理極少,很多失敗路徑沒有覆蓋
- 3:對常見情況有基本的錯誤處理
- 4:錯誤處理良好,錯誤資訊有參考價值
- 5:錯誤處理全面,能優雅降級
第 3 步:在 YAML 中配置 rubric_eval
下面是完整的 config.yaml:

format: "jsonl"第 4 步:啟動標註伺服器
potato start config.yaml -p 8000第 5 步:標註者的工作流程
標註者開啟一個任務時,看到的是:
- 頂部的任務描述(“Fix the TypeError in django/db/models/query.py when calling .values() on an empty QuerySet”)
- 中間的智慧體 trace,展示逐步的推理和程式碼改動
- trace 下方的評分量表網格
網格把所有準則排成行。每一行包含:
- 左側是準則名稱和描述
- 沿行橫排的評分按鈕(1-5)
- 滑鼠懸停在某個評分按鈕上,會顯示該檔位的描述
標註者:
- 通讀智慧體 trace,理解其思路和產出
- 點選對應的評分按鈕,為每個準則打分
- (可選)給出總體品質分
- (可選)寫補充說明
- 點選“Submit”或按 Ctrl+Enter 提交
準則可以按任意順序打分,提交前評分都可以改。介面會高亮尚未打分的準則,避免漏項。

每份提交的量表都會產生一個結構化的 JSON 物件:
{
"trace_id": "trace_042",
"annotator": "annotator_03",
"timestamp": "2026-03-20T10:15:32Z",
"rubric": {
"criteria_ratings": {
"correctness": 4,
"code_quality": 3,
"efficiency": 5,
"documentation": 2,
"error_handling": 3
},
"overall": 4,
"notes": "Agent found and fixed the bug efficiently but did not add any comments explaining the change. Error handling for the edge case is minimal.",
"weighted_score": 3.56
}
}weighted_score 由配置好的權重自動算出:
weighted_score = sum(rating * weight for each criterion) / sum(weights)
= (4*3.0 + 3*2.0 + 5*1.5 + 2*1.0 + 3*1.5) / (3.0 + 2.0 + 1.5 + 1.0 + 1.5)
= (12 + 6 + 7.5 + 2 + 4.5) / 9.0
= 32.0 / 9.0
= 3.56
分析:處理評分量表資料
載入資料並計算各準則均值
import json
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from pathlib import Path
# Load rubric annotations
rubrics = []
for f in Path("output/").glob("*.jsonl"):
with open(f) as fh:
for line in fh:
rubrics.append(json.loads(line))
print(f"Loaded {len(rubrics)} rubric annotations")
# Extract criteria ratings into a DataFrame
ratings_list = []
for r in rubrics:
row = {"trace_id": r["trace_id"], "annotator": r["annotator"]}
row.update(r["rubric"]["criteria_ratings"])
row["overall"] = r["rubric"].get("overall")
row["weighted_score"] = r["rubric"].get("weighted_score")
ratings_list.append(row)
df = pd.DataFrame(ratings_list)
# Per-criterion averages

print(f"\n overall: {df['overall'].mean():.2f}")
print(f" weighted_score: {df['weighted_score'].mean():.2f}")雷達圖視覺化
雷達圖(蜘蛛圖)是視覺化量表資料最自然的選擇,一眼就能看到完整的品質畫像。
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
criteria = ["correctness", "code_quality", "efficiency", "documentation", "error_handling"]
labels = ["Correctness", "Code Quality", "Efficiency", "Documentation", "Error Handling"]
# Compute mean ratings
means = [df[c].mean() for c in criteria]
# Create radar chart
angles = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, len(criteria), endpoint=False).tolist()
means_plot = means + [means[0]] # close the polygon
angles += angles[:1]
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 8), subplot_kw=dict(polar=True))
ax.fill(angles, means_plot, alpha=0.25, color="#6E56CF")
ax.plot(angles, means_plot, color="#6E56CF", linewidth=2)
ax.set_xticks(angles[:-1])
ax.set_xticklabels(labels)
ax.set_ylim(0, 5)
ax.set_yticks([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
ax.set_yticklabels(["1", "2", "3", "4", "5"])
ax.set_title("Agent Quality Profile", size=16, pad=20)
plt.tight_layout()
plt.savefig("rubric_radar.png", dpi=150)
print("Saved rubric_radar.png")對比多個智慧體
如果你的資料集裡有多個智慧體的 trace,可以把它們的雷達圖疊在一起:
agents = df["trace_id"].str.extract(r"^([a-z_]+)_")[0].unique()
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 8), subplot_kw=dict(polar=True))
colors = ["#6E56CF", "#E54D2E", "#30A46C", "#E5A336"]
for i, agent in enumerate(agents[:4]):
agent_df = df[df["trace_id"].str.startswith(agent)]
agent_means = [agent_df[c].mean() for c in criteria]
agent_plot = agent_means + [agent_means[0]]
ax.fill(angles, agent_plot, alpha=0.1, color=colors[i])
ax.plot(angles, agent_plot, color=colors[i], linewidth=2, label=agent)
ax.set_xticks(angles[:-1])
ax.set_xticklabels(labels)
ax.set_ylim(0, 5)
ax.legend(loc="upper right", bbox_to_anchor=(1.3, 1.0))
ax.set_title("Agent Quality Comparison", size=16, pad=20)

plt.savefig("rubric_comparison.png", dpi=150)
print("Saved rubric_comparison.png")各準則的標註者間一致性
評分量表評估讓分準則計算一致性變得很容易,從中可以看出哪些維度偏主觀、哪些更客觀:
from itertools import combinations
def krippendorff_alpha_simple(ratings_by_annotator, value_domain):
"""Simplified Krippendorff's alpha for ordinal data."""
# Group ratings by item
items = {}
for ann, ann_ratings in ratings_by_annotator.items():
for trace_id, rating in ann_ratings.items():
if trace_id not in items:
items[trace_id] = []
items[trace_id].append(rating)
# Only use items with 2+ ratings
items = {k: v for k, v in items.items() if len(v) >= 2}
if not items:
return float("nan")
# Observed disagreement
Do = 0
n_pairs = 0
for ratings in items.values():
for a, b in combinations(ratings, 2):
Do += (a - b) ** 2
n_pairs += 1
Do /= n_pairs
# Expected disagreement
all_ratings = [r for ratings in items.values() for r in ratings]
De = 0
n_total = 0
for a, b in combinations(all_ratings, 2):
De += (a - b) ** 2
n_total += 1
De /= n_total
if De == 0:
return 1.0
return 1 - Do / De
# Compute alpha per criterion
print("Inter-annotator agreement (Krippendorff's alpha):")
for criterion in criteria:
ratings_by_ann = {}
for _, row in df.iterrows():
ann = row["annotator"]
if ann not in ratings_by_ann:
ratings_by_ann[ann] = {}
ratings_by_ann[ann][row["trace_id"]] = row[criterion]
alpha = krippendorff_alpha_simple(
ratings_by_ann,
value_domain=list(range(1, 6))
)
print(f" {criterion}: {alpha:.3f}")實際跑下來,正確性通常一致性很高,因為它相對客觀;文件和程式碼品質則會低一些,因為它們更主觀。這個訊號告訴你哪些檔位描述最需要打磨。
把 rubric_eval 和 trajectory_eval 結合起來
想做最徹底的評估,就在同一個標註任務裡同時用 rubric_eval 和 trajectory_eval。標註者先逐步走一遍 trace(trajectory_eval),標出錯誤和嚴重程度,然後再按各準則給出整體品質評分(rubric_eval)。
annotation_schemes:
# First: per-step error localization
- annotation_type: "trajectory_eval"
# Second: overall quality rubric
- annotation_type: "rubric_eval"這樣每條 trace 會得到兩份資料結構:trajectory_eval 給出的詳細錯誤地圖,以及 rubric_eval 給出的品質畫像。前者回答“智慧體在哪裡出了錯”,後者回答“結果整體有多好”。
小結
用 rubric_eval 做評分量表評估,你拿到的是智慧體品質的多維檢視,而不是一個數字。配上自定義準則和錨定的檔位描述,你得到的是可以據以行動的診斷(知道該改哪些維度)、在同一套準則下對不同智慧體的公平比較,以及更可靠的測量,因為錨定量表會抬高一致性。同一套方案適用於編碼智慧體、網頁智慧體、對話智慧體或別的什麼,產出的資料也支援雷達圖、分準則統計和一致性指標。
先針對你的智慧體類型定 3 到 5 個準則,把檔位描述寫詳細,再根據標註者的反饋迭代這份量表。最好的評分量表,是標註者對每一檔的含義都心裡有數的那一份。
