What's Good
Apache-2.0 (explodinggradients/ragas → vibrantlabsai). Python metrics for RAG (faithfulness, answer relevancy, context precision/recall) plus agent/trajectory scorers and synthetic test-data generation. Runs locally or in CI against your own LLM providers. Docs at ragas.io / docs.ragas.io. ★15,869 on GitHub 2026-09-29.
The Catch
Vs DeepEval (pytest-native agent/chat metrics + Confident AI cloud) and Promptfoo (YAML/CLI red-team): Ragas is RAG-first metric library + synthetic data, not a full red-team harness and not Confident AI dashboards. LLM-as-judge burns provider tokens; cloud extras (if any) are optional — core library stays OSS.
Verdict
Apache-2.0 RAG/agent eval metrics when faithfulness and context precision beat a hosted eval bill — not DeepEval pytest, not Promptfoo red-team.
