AgentCarousel Fixtures
Quality Assurance and Trust for Autonomous AI — right inside your editor.
Stop squinting at raw YAML. The AgentCarousel Fixtures extension gives you a rich, human-readable interface for navigating, inspecting, and understanding your AgentCarousel fixture files without ever leaving your IDE.
Features
Fixture Tree Navigator
Browse all fixture files, cases, and attributes in a structured sidebar tree. Every case is one click away.
- Fixture files show certification track, risk tier, and case count at a glance
- Cases display their evaluator type and tags inline
- Attribute nodes (Input, Output Checks, Rubric, Evaluator) navigate directly to the right line in the YAML
Case Detail Panel
Click any case to open a fully rendered detail view:
- Breadcrumb header —
skill_name › case-id with certification/risk/data badges
- Input (Prompt) — formatted message blocks, color-coded by role
- Output Checks — table of all assertions grouped by kind (
contains, regex, not_contains, …)
- Rubric — cards with weight bars, descriptions, and auto-check patterns
- Evaluator Config — golden file link, threshold explained, judge prompt, or process command
- Tool Sequence — expected tool calls rendered as JSON
Live Reload
The tree auto-refreshes whenever you save a fixture YAML. No manual refresh required.
Empty State & Onboarding
If no fixtures are found, the panel guides you to the right directory and lets you configure the fixture glob pattern directly from the welcome screen.
