## Description

This Mandoline MCP server, developed by Mandoline AI, provides AI assistants with direct access to Mandoline's LLM evaluation platform through a comprehensive set of tools for creating and managing custom metrics, running evaluations on prompt-response pairs, and retrieving evaluation results. Built with TypeScript and Express, it features session management with automatic cleanup, API key-based authentication, and tools for both individual and batch operations on metrics and evaluations. The implementation includes automatic environment context injection (client info, model names) and content hashing for evaluation tracking, making it particularly useful for AI development teams who need to systematically evaluate and improve their language models through conversational interfaces rather than traditional dashboards.
