From d6eb013eb34068e529a5569734fe6ac02f9ea1a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: denispetre Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 18:20:16 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] test(model-onboarding): probe the model as an LLM-as-judge guardrail MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Adds a third probe putting the model under test in the *judge* role: a ReAct agent runs behind a real UiPathLLMAsJudgeMiddleware guardrail whose judge model is the one being onboarded, and the guardrail decides whether the agent's answer broke a natural-language rule. Two probes, because one cannot tell a working judge from a broken one: a violating prompt the judge must block, and a compliant one it must let through. A judge that always blocks fails the second; one that never blocks fails the first. Sampled, not single-shot. The judge is a model call, so one sample is a coin toss on a borderline verdict — an earlier single-sample version reported the compliant answer blocked in 3 of 6 end-to-end runs. Each probe now runs SAMPLES times and is decided by majority, and the observed counts are always reported: judge_guardrail: ✓ judge discriminated (violating blocked 3/3, compliant allowed 3/3) so a marginal judge is visible rather than intermittently red. Threshold stays at the middleware default of 2.0, chosen by measurement rather than intuition — 20 samples per setting against gpt-5.2 on alpha: threshold violating blocked compliant allowed 2.0 10/10 10/10 4.0 10/10 7/10 Raising it only cost specificity. The table is in the source so nobody "tunes" it the wrong way later. Skipped without a PAT. The validator lives on `agentsruntime_`, which the client-credentials app cannot reach — the OAuth resource catalog has no `agentsruntime` entry, so an S2S token comes back 401. Verified: with UIPATH_PAT unset the cell records "– skipped" and does not fail the run, so the existing CI path stays green; run.sh swaps a supplied PAT into .env (it must go in the file, not the environment — the CLI loads .env with override=True, so an exported token loses to what `uipath auth` just wrote). Requires an ALPHA_TEST_PAT secret to actually run in CI. Verified end-to-end against alpha: 2 runs, both 3/3 on each probe.

Reword the rule to judge "the text" so the compliant *request* no longer reads as a violation at PRE — the likely cause of the intermittent wrongly-blocked compliant probe — and state the dual-stage reality (and the up-to-12-judge-call cost) in the comments. - Build the guardrail on the public seam generated coded agents use (AgentBuiltInValidatorGuardrail + build_guardrails_with_actions) instead of reaching into middleware._guardrail; drops the dual BlockAction aliases and the dead stage/action arguments. - Count a block only on exact code match AND category USER: the guardrail node raises the same TERMINATION_GUARDRAIL_VIOLATION code with category DEPLOYMENT for feature-disabled/missing-entitlement outcomes, which previously registered as blocks (a false pass on the violating probe, a misdiagnosis on the compliant one). - Carry the offending answers/block reasons into the AssertionError so a red run is debuggable without re-running under a PAT. - Replace the loop-tail `continue` PAT skip with if/else so a probe appended later still runs without a PAT; match sibling cell style. - run.sh: uv run python for the heredoc; document that the PAT becomes the ambient token for the whole run (least-privilege note, also in the workflow and README); README section for the probe and its skip. Rule text and wiring changed, so the threshold table and 3/3 runs in the PR description were measured against the previous wording — re-verify end-to-end on alpha with a PAT before relying on the gate.
