assert framework

The assert framework tag on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft's ASSERT evaluation framework and the tooling built around it. The main discussion looks at run-assert-eval, an open-source skill for AI coding assistants that chains the Clarity threat-modeling tool, the ASSERT evaluation framework, and the Agent Control Specification (ACS). The workflow is aimed at teams building AI agents that call tools and touch real data: find an agent's risks, measure how often it fails, draft a runtime policy, then rerun the same test to confirm the fix. A recurring point is methodological, since before-and-after comparisons only count as evidence when test cases and the automated grader stay unchanged between runs.
