LLM Readiness Harness: Evaluation, Observability, and CI Gates for LLM/RAG Applications

arXiv:2603.27355v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a readiness harness for LLM and RAG applications that turns evaluation into a deployment decision workflow. The system combines automated benchmarks, OpenTelemetry observability, and CI quality gates under a minimal API contract, then aggregates workflow success, policy compliance, groundedness, retrieval hit rate, cost, and p95 latency into scenario-weighted readiness scores with Pareto frontiers. We evaluate the harness on ticket-routing workflows and BEIR grounding tasks (SciFact and FiQA) with full Azure matrix coverage (
