evalmonkey is an open-source framework for testing how LLM agents degrade under adversarial conditions. You run your agent against 10 standard datasets (GSM8K, ARC, HellaSwag, etc.) pulled automatically from HuggingFace, then apply chaos profiles that introduce realistic failure modes: malformed JSON schemas, artificial latency spikes, 429 rate-limit errors, context-window overflow, and prompt injection payloads. The key output is a degradation delta — evalmonkey shows you exactly how much your agent's accuracy drops under each failure type versus clean inputs. A model that scores 78% on GSM8K normally but drops to 31% when it gets a 429 mid-chain tells you something crucial about its error-recovery behavior that standard benchmarks completely miss. It supports OpenAI, Anthropic (via Bedrock and direct), Azure, GCP, and any Ollama-hosted model. Corbell-AI published this with a clear thesis: agents break in production for infrastructure reasons, not model reasons — and no existing benchmark tests that. evalmonkey was created today (April 17, 2026) and is still at 3 stars, but the core idea is genuinely novel in the evals space.

Extractor by Lightfeed is a TypeScript library that uses LLMs to extract structured data from websites. It handles messy HTML, JavaScript-rendered content, and inconsistent page layouts that break traditional scrapers. Define your schema and let the LLM figure out where the data lives.
Reviewer scorecard
“Every engineer who's deployed an agent in production knows models fail catastrophically when the API starts rate-limiting mid-chain. evalmonkey is the first tool I've seen that actually lets you reproduce and measure that. The degradation delta report alone is worth the setup time.”
“Schema-driven extraction with LLM fallback is exactly right. Traditional scrapers break on every site redesign — Extractor adapts because it understands the content semantically. The TypeScript-first approach with strong typing on outputs is chef's kiss for building data pipelines.”
“It's a brand new repo with 3 stars and no documentation beyond the README. The chaos profiles themselves are hardcoded — you can't simulate the specific failure patterns your infra produces. Useful concept, but wait for it to mature before relying on it for production decision-making.”
“LLM extraction costs add up fast at scale. But for the use cases where you need it — scraping sites with unpredictable layouts, extracting from pages that change frequently — the reliability improvement over CSS selectors easily justifies the token spend.”
“Chaos engineering for AI agents is a missing layer in the entire reliability stack. As agents handle higher-stakes tasks, chaos benchmarking will move from 'interesting experiment' to 'required before deployment.' evalmonkey is establishing the vocabulary for that discipline right now.”
“Too dev-focused for my immediate use, but if I'm running an agent that manages my publishing schedule, knowing it won't break when Anthropic throttles me at 2am is genuinely valuable. I'd want a managed version with a dashboard before adopting this.”
“I have been using this to pull structured data from competitor landing pages and product directories. The schema definition is intuitive and the extraction quality is surprisingly consistent even across wildly different page designs.”
