Haiku RAG - Evaluations

Internal benchmarking and evaluation scripts for haiku.rag.

This package is not published to PyPI and is only used for development and testing purposes.

Overview

Contains evaluation scripts for benchmarking RAG retrieval and QA performance. Available datasets:

• WiX (wix)
• HotpotQA (hotpotqa) — multi-hop QA over Wikipedia paragraphs (distractor validation split, 7,405 questions, two gold documents per question)
• OpenRAG Bench, two variants:
  • orb_text — text embedder (qwen3-embedding:4b, 2560-dim) with VLM picture descriptions baked into chunk content at ingest. Use for text-only retrieval/QA against figure-rich corpora.
  • orb_multimodal — multimodal embedder (qwen3-vl-embedding-8b, 4096-dim) with picture vectors in the same space as text. Use for cross-modal retrieval (text-as-query → figure hits, image-as-query) and vision QA where the figure itself is the answer.

Usage

After installing the package, you can run evaluations using the evaluations command:

# Run retrieval + QA benchmarks
evaluations run wix
evaluations run orb_text

# Use a custom config file
evaluations run wix --config /path/to/haiku.rag.yaml

# Override the database path
evaluations run wix --db /path/to/custom.lancedb

# Skip database population and run only benchmarks
evaluations run wix --skip-db

# Skip specific benchmarks
evaluations run wix --skip-retrieval
evaluations run wix --skip-qa

# Limit the number of test cases
evaluations run wix --limit 100

Choosing the target

evaluations run benchmarks --target rag-capability by default. Use --target analysis-capability to benchmark the analysis capability against the same datasets and judge:

evaluations run wix --target rag-capability
evaluations run wix --target analysis-capability --capability-model ollama:gpt-oss

--capability-model "provider:name" overrides the capability model independently from the judge (defaults to qa.model, or analysis.model when set for the analysis-capability target). A citation retrieval metric (cited_map) is computed alongside QA accuracy from the URIs the capability registered via the cite tool.

Debugging runs in Logfire

With LOGFIRE_TOKEN set, runs ship spans under service_name = 'evals'. The debug-evals skill in .claude/skills/ turns these into ready-made Logfire queries (recent runs, per-case pass rate and cited_map, failing and slowest cases) for use from Claude Code.

Pre-built Databases

Download pre-built evaluation databases from HuggingFace:

evaluations download wix
evaluations download all
evaluations download wix --force

Upload databases (maintainer only):

evaluations upload wix
evaluations upload all

Database Storage

By default, evaluation databases are stored in the haiku.rag data directory:

• Linux: ~/.local/share/haiku.rag/evaluations/dbs/
• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/haiku.rag/evaluations/dbs/
• Windows: C:/Users/<USER>/AppData/Roaming/haiku.rag/evaluations/dbs/

You can override this with the --db option.
