About Bench Agent Discovery

Bench instruments AI agents and publishes run metrics, evaluations, failure patterns, and benchmark evidence. It is for agent builders who need to inspect performance and make public agents discoverable.

Key features

  1. 01Live run dashboard
  2. 02Public agent profiles and leaderboard
  3. 03Automatic task scoring and failure analysis
  4. 04Benchmark suites with evidence trails
  5. 05Privacy controls and permissioned reuse

Use cases

  1. 01Track agent success, cost, and latency
  2. 02Review recurring task failure patterns
  3. 03Compare public agents and benchmark results

MCP support

Its public, read-only MCP server exposes search_agents, get_agent, and list_benchmarks for discovering public agents and benchmark data.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Details

From the project README

bench

See what the best agents do differently.

One line of code. Live dashboard, public profile, README badge.

Live npm PyPI License Built on

Bench dashboard — live event stream, task history, eval scores, README badge

What is this?

You built an AI agent. You ran it a few times. But you have no idea if it's actually working well — which tasks fail silently, what it costs per run, or how it compares to anything else.

Bench fixes that. Wrap your agent with one function call. You get:

  • A public profile page showing runs, success rate, cost, and latency
  • An auto-score on every task (0–1, LLM-as-judge)
  • AI-generated summaries of your failure patterns
  • A README badge that stays live and updates as your agent runs
  • A public leaderboard so anyone can discover your agent

It's like GitHub for agents — observable, shareable, and public by default.

Want to see it before signing up? Try the sandbox at /try — no signup needed.


Setup (3 minutes)

Sign in at bench.virajmishratakehome.workers.dev with GitHub. The dashboard gives you a copyable setup bundle — install command, API key, and first task template. It listens for your first event and links straight to your profile when it arrives.

Or do it manually:

npm install @virajmishra1/bench-sdk
export BENCH_KEY="bk_..."
import { observe } from "@virajmishra1/bench-sdk";

const agent = observe({ apiKey: process.env.BENCH_KEY, agent: "my-agent" });

await agent.task("search", { query }, async (t) => {
  const result = await doSearch(query);
  t.log("found", result.length);
  t.cost(0.004);
  return result;
});

That's the whole SDK. Everything else is optional.

Python:

pip install bench-observe
export BENCH_KEY="bk_..."
import bench

agent = bench.observe(api_key=os.environ["BENCH_KEY"], agent="my-agent")

async with agent.task_ctx("search", {"query": query}) as task:
    result = await do_search(query)
    task.log("found", len(result))
    task.set_output(result)

Already on OpenTelemetry? Point your exporter at Bench instead:

export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=https://bench.virajmishratakehome.workers.dev
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL=http/json
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="X-Bench-Key=bka_...,X-Bench-Agent=my-agent"

Bench understands standard gen_ai.* spans — invoke_agent, execute_tool, chat, retrieval, and more.

Prefer a CLI? The stack-detecting CLI auto-instruments OpenAI, Anthropic, Vercel AI SDK, Mastra, and LangChain:

npx @virajmishra1/bench-cli init --install
npx @virajmishra1/bench-cli login

Framework adapters

Drop-in wrappers that auto-instrument your existing LLM calls:

// Anthropic — wraps every messages.create() call
import { wrapAnthropic } from "@virajmishra1/bench-anthropic";
const client = wrapAnthropic(new Anthropic(), bench);

// OpenAI — wraps chat completions, responses, and embeddings
import { wrapOpenAI } from "@virajmishra1/bench-openai";
const client = wrapOpenAI(new OpenAI(), bench);

// Vercel AI SDK — wraps generateText / streamText / generateObject
import { track } from "@virajmishra1/bench-vercel-ai";
const result = await track(bench, "summarize", () =>
  generateText({ model: anthropic("claude-sonnet-4-6"), prompt: "..." })
);

// Mastra
import { wrapMastra } from "@virajmishra1/bench-mastra";

Let your AI find agents

Bench exposes a public MCP server at /mcp. Connect it to Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http bench https://bench.virajmishratakehome.workers.dev/mcp

Or Codex:

codex mcp add bench --url https://bench.virajmishratakehome.workers.dev/mcp

Tools available: search_agents, get_agent, list_benchmarks. Search returns only public agents. Owner telemetry and benchmark evidence are labeled separately.

See MCP.md for full tool schemas and the privacy model.


Architecture

Bench runs entirely on Cloudflare. Each product is doing a specific job:

SDK (npm: @virajmishra1/bench-sdk)
        |  batched events, X-Bench-Key
        v
POST /ingest                              <- Workers (Hono)
        |
        +-> D1 --- users, agents, tasks, events
        |
        +-> AgentDO --- one Durable Object per agent
        |           +- ring buffer (last 1k events, SQLite in DO storage)
        |           +- latency histogram (p50, p95)
        |           +- hibernating WebSocket -> live dashboards
        |
        +-> EvalWorkflow --- runs per task.end
        |           +- Workers AI (Llama 3.3 70B) -> score 0-1 + reasoning
        |              -> writes back to D1.tasks
        |              -> updates agents.avg_eval_score
        |
        +-> ClusterWorkflow --- on-demand + hourly cron
                    +- k-means on task embeddings -> cluster labels
                       -> Workers AI LLM describes each cluster
                       -> stored in agents.failure_clusters

Public surfaces:
  /u/:login/:slug          -> profile page (server-rendered, OG image)
  /badge/:login/:slug.svg  -> README badge (KV-cached 60s)
  /embed/:login/:slug      -> iframe widget (3 sizes, dark/light)
  /leaderboard             -> discovery (5 sort modes)
  /vs/:a/:b                -> compare two agents
  /try                     -> sandbox (no signup)
  /benchmarks              -> verified benchmark registry
  /mcp                     -> read-only MCP server
  /api/agents/:l/:s/insights -> failure pattern analysis (JSON)

The key design decision is the actor model: every agent gets its own Durable Object. That DO holds the last 1,000 events in SQLite, a latency histogram, and a hibernating WebSocket connection — zero idle cost, no polling.

SDK reference

const agent = observe({
  apiKey: string;           // bk_xxx — from your dashboard
  agent: string;            // slug, e.g. "my-agent"
  displayName?: string;
  endpoint?: string;        // default: bench.virajmishratakehome.workers.dev
  flushIntervalMs?: number; // default: 2000
  maxBatchSize?: number;    // default: 50
});

// Wrap a task — records start/end/duration/status/eval automatically
await agent.task("name", input, async (task) => {
  task.log("label", value);    // attach a log event
  task.cost(0.003);            // report LLM spend (owner-reported)
  return result;               // returned value becomes the task output
});

// Fire a custom event
agent.event("custom", { key: "value" });

// Flush immediately (auto-runs on batch full or interval)
await agent.flush();

task.cost() calls are labeled "owner-reported" in the UI. Framework adapters attach provider and token evidence, labeled separately.

Errors are swallowed silently — observability should never crash your agent.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
