Welcome to Inspect, a framework for large language model evaluations created by the UK AI Safety Institute.
Inspect provides many built-in components, including facilities for prompt engineering, tool usage, multi-turn dialog, and model graded evaluations. Extensions to Inspect (e.g. to support new elicitation and scoring techniques) can be provided by other Python packages.
To get started with Inspect, please see the documentation at https://inspect.ai-safety-institute.org.uk/.
To work on development of Inspect, clone the repository and install with the -e flag and [dev] optional dependencies:
$ git clone https://github.com/UKGovernmentBEIS/inspect_ai.git
$ cd inspect_ai
$ pip install -e ".[dev]"
Optionally install pre-commit hooks via
make hooks
Run linting, formatting, and tests via
make check
make test
If you use VS Code, you should be sure to have installed the recommended extensions (Python, Ruff, and MyPy). Note that you'll be prompted to install these when you open the project in VS Code.
