Summary

Add tracked measurement packages with usage accounting, validated baseline bindings, and offline replay for Chat Completions and Responses. Reviewed measurements retain their cassettes, inputs, source identity, and check results so a later comparison can detect incompatible evidence instead of treating old scores as a current baseline.

The package adoption path preserves hashed bytes across Git and formatting. A runtime-only retry override lets bounded workbench runs control provider attempts without changing the desktop application's default retry behavior.

Related issue

Part of #459

This implements versioned measurements, usage accounting, baseline validation, and offline replay. It does not freeze or validate the missing original real-take baseline, and it does not complete the issue.

Type of change

  • Enhancement

Release impact

  • Minor

Desktop impact

  • Not platform-specific

Workbench tooling and the shared model configuration change; no new editor UI or installer behavior is introduced.

Screenshots / video

No visual interface change.

Testing

  • Replaced the old combined-source sample with local-pr15-scripted-control-20260913-v1, generated against this workbench branch.

  • Export, verification, offline replay, bound-baseline generation, and self-comparison completed successfully:

    npm run wb:measurement -- verify --id local-pr15-scripted-control-20260913-v1
    npm run wb:measurement -- replay --id local-pr15-scripted-control-20260913-v1
    npm run wb:measurement -- compare --left local-pr15-scripted-control-20260913-v1 --right local-pr15-scripted-control-20260913-v1
  • This sample uses a local scripted model, not a paid provider. Provider usage on that control is incomplete because the fixture responses do not include usage blocks. It demonstrates offline workflow reproducibility, not token-complete accounting or model quality.

  • Fork CI on this head passed lint, TypeScript, the unit suite, the build, and compositor/capture helper jobs.

No paid or live provider call was made for this submission.

Known limits

The original real-take fixture is absent from the checkout used for validation. Its dependent scenarios remain unavailable. This PR does not substitute synthetic results under those scenario IDs or claim a completed original-fixture baseline. The live recordings and credentials used during earlier development are not included.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added offline measurement tools for exporting, verifying, replaying, comparing, and generating baselines.
    • Added cassette replay with request limits, output-token limits, usage tracking, and retry evidence.
    • Added support for OpenAI Responses API workflows alongside Chat Completions.
    • Added configurable retry limits for chat runs.
    • Added source, endpoint, transport, privacy, and artifact integrity validation.
    • Preserved system and developer instruction roles in recordings and fingerprints.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded Workbench guidance for wire modes, record/replay workflows, measurements, usage reporting, and provenance.
  • Tests

    • Added extensive coverage for measurement, replay, transport policies, Responses API behavior, provenance, and baseline compatibility.

Measurement packages bind a baseline, record usage and replay Chat
Completions and Responses transports offline so a result can be checked
without repeating the live call.
…nest


Chat outages and shared-budget timeouts can no longer land in an adopted measurement.
…ntity


Keep failed retry attempts, recompute prompt/wire/rubric and expectedFailures, and fail closed if a Chat measurement changes concrete model.
Replay now hashes the full Chat request, so the checked-in control had to be re-recorded against the current source identity.
A transport failure before the first complete round never wrote a cassette, so the runner dropped that provider attempt. Adopt attempts from the live endpoint instead.
runner.ts is a measurement source anchor, so the checked-in control had to be re-recorded after the pre-round attempt fix.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Workbench adds Responses API support, bounded record/replay, source and transport provenance, measurement validation and adoption, bound baselines, and related CLI commands, tests, documentation, and fixtures. Chat runtime retries can now be overridden.

workbench/lib/cassette.ts, workbench/lib/model-server.ts, workbench/lib/runner.ts, workbench/lib/judge.ts, workbench/cli.ts, workbench/l1/*
Recording and replay support Chat Completions and Responses cassettes with request policies, byte evidence, usage, retry attempts, model checks, freshness checks, and replay receipts.
Measurement adoption and baselines
workbench/lib/measurement.ts, workbench/measurement-cli.ts, workbench/measurement-entry.ts, workbench/l0/measurements.wb.ts, workbench/l1/measurements.wb.ts, workbench/measurements/*
Measurements can be prepared, verified, exported, replayed, compared, and bound to baselines. Artifact hashes, identities, reviews, privacy rules, counts, and usage are validated.
Repository controls and fixture handling
.gitattributes, .gitignore, biome.json, workbench/README.md, workbench/lib/real-fixture.ts
Measurement JSON remains byte-stable, agent evidence is ignored, measurement files skip formatting, workflow documentation is expanded, committed measurement artifacts are regenerated, and unavailable real fixtures use a named error code.

Remove the run directory before the CLI runs, so a stale receipt cannot pass the test.

The test reads workbench/runs/${LABEL}/target-right-clip/replay-receipt.json after the child process exits. LABEL is a constant, so a receipt written by an earlier run of this test stays on disk. If a future change makes the CLI exit 0 without writing a new receipt, the assertions read the old file and the test passes for the wrong reason.

Remove the dependency on artifacts written by earlier tests.

This test reads ${ROOT}/native-tool-loop.json, which only the first test writes. The test at line 263 has the same dependency on ${ROOT}/non-2xx-bytes.json. A filtered run, a reordering, or a failure in the producing test makes these tests fail with ENOENT instead of a meaningful assertion.

Record the needed cassette in a beforeAll hook, or build the tamper base with writeCassette inside each test.

Inline comments:
In `@workbench/l0/measurements.wb.ts`:
- Line 575: Update the test around symlinkSync to pin the platform-specific
behavior instead of branching on process.platform. Split or parameterize the
cases for Windows and non-Windows platforms, giving each a fixed expected
symlink type while preserving the existing test coverage.

In `@workbench/l1/cassette.wb.ts`:
- Line 541: Update the test setup around startRecorder to obtain an OS-selected
listening port, keep its listener occupied while the forward request is expected
to fail, and release it only after that request completes. Use the selected port
for upstream instead of the hard-coded 59999 value, preserving the assertion
that no round is recorded.

In `@workbench/lib/cassette.ts`:
- Line 917: Update the Chat branch of startReplay to use the recorded httpStatus
from responseEvidence when calling res.writeHead and reporting the replayed
response, instead of always using 200. Preserve the existing event-stream
headers and successful-round behavior while allowing non-2xx Chat cassette
statuses to remain replayable.

In `@workbench/lib/runner.ts`:
- Around line 239-241: Update the retry loop’s cassette selection around
startRecorder and successCassette so only the cassette belonging to the attempt
whose result is retained is adopted. Do not preserve a partial cassette from an
earlier failed attempt when the final attempt produces no cassette; ensure the
canonical cassette written at the later successCassette handling remains paired
with the corresponding results entry.

A failed retry could leave a partial tape that later became canonical while results kept the last attempt. Replay Chat httpStatus, pin the symlink tests, and isolate the Responses fixtures.
