Agent Flow is a binary metric that checks if an agent’s behavior satisfies all user-defined natural language conditions.
To use this metric, you will need to create a copy and edit the prompt to provide your natural language tests.

When to use this metric
Agent Flow is useful when measuring multi-agent systems that have well-defined paths or interactions
Score interpretation
Expected Score: 80%-100%.
This metric needs to be manually customized to include your own natural language tests.

Locate the user defined tests section
Locate the user defined tests section in the prompt.<user-defined-tests>
{{ Add your tests here }}

Customize the prompt by adding your user-defined tests
This prompt needs to be customized based on your application, and the inputs and outputs you are expecting. Replace {{ Add your tests here }} with a numbered list of tests in natural language that can be used to evaluate the agent efficiency. This can include:
- Expected tool or agent calls, using the tool or agent names
- Conditions on tool or agent calling (e.g. if tool x is called, don’t call agent y)
- Expectations around the input or output parameters to tools and agents
- Limitations on the number of tool or agent calls
For example, imagine you were creating an agent to provide advice on exercises for different body parts, such as for a physical therapy application. This has multiple tools, including list_by_target_muscle_for_exercised, list_by_body_part_for_exercised, list_of_bodyparts_for_exercised. Some user tests might be:1. If a call to "list_by_target_muscle_for_exercised" returns an error that contains the text "target not found", the agent should subsequently attempt an alternative lookup by calling either "list_by_body_part_for_exercised" or "list_of_bodyparts_for_exercised"
2. When the user asks for exercises that target leg muscles, the agent must call at least one of the tools ["list_by_target_muscle_for_exercised", "list_by_body_part_for_exercised"] during the conversation
3. After receiving a successful response from "list_by_body_part_for_exercised", the agent's following natural-language message must contain at least one exercise name, the corresponding equipment, and an animated demonstration URL taken from the tool output
4. Every invocation of the tool "list_by_body_part_for_exercised" must include the required parameter "bodypart"
5. After receiving data from list_by_body_part_for_exercised, the agent response must include the exercise id for every exercise it presents to the user
6. No assistant message should include more than one tool invocation
7. The agent should conclude the conversation with a human-readable answer that summarizes the requested leg exercises using data returned from the tools

Best practices
Trajectory tests are similar to unit tests for the agents trajectory, to check if certain conditions are followed during the agents path.
You should write all the tests in a numbered list. For example:
1. If X happens then ask the user Y and call tool Z.
2. X tool is always called before Y tool.
3. When user asks X reply with Y
4. The tool Y should be called once in the conversation.
