Evals let you replace gut feelings with quantifiable decisions. This talk breaks the basic concepts of evals, including the four core components: datasets, tasks, scoring, and experiments. Then, to solidify the concept, we'll walk through a real eval comparing agentic search versus vector search for coding agents. We'll also cover practical challenges like tracing Claude Code subprocess calls and why a single eval run is never enough. You'll leave with a concrete framework for building evals that actually inform your ship decisions.
