Summary

agent_alert_skill was 0/21 on every haiku leg (anthropic and bedrock, medium and high) in nightly run 40229016049. Every run failed only recipients_correct. The agent and gen-ai were correct; the agentic checker (core/agentic/alert_skill.py) graded them wrong.

JSON-encoded recipients

  • haiku sends 'internal_recipients': '["admin"]' (a string); OpenAI models send ['admin']. The tool schema allows both (anyOf: [array of string, string, null]), and gen-ai decodes the string before calling the server (_as_list in gdc_mcp_client_factory.py).
  • The checker JSON-decoded a string external_recipients, but wrapped a string internal_recipients as one id, so ["admin"] never matched the current user admin.
  • Both fields now go through one helper, _recipient_list, that mirrors gen-ai: empty or "null" means none, a JSON list of strings is that list, anything else is a bare value. A non-string list entry now scores False instead of raising TypeError.

Not changed:

  • The exact recipient set for email-only items (an earlier revision of this PR) is moved to its own change. The MCP server corrects recipients before it saves the alert (normalize_recipients), so that check should compare the saved automation, not the raw tool arguments.
  • The single-shot scorer core/evaluators/alert_skill.py also fails "Recipient(s)": "me" for correct arguments. It reads only recipients/externalRecipients and has no current-user id. Nightly does not use it (tavern-e2e calls the agentic path), and fixing it needs the evaluator interface to carry the current user, so it is left for a separate change.

Test Plan

  • TEST_ENVS=py314 make -C packages/gooddata-eval test: 2435 passed, 1 skipped.
  • make -C packages/gooddata-eval format lint type-check: clean.
  • New tests, expected me, current user admin: '["admin"]', 'admin' and ['admin'] pass; '["someone_else"]', '[]', 'null', '', ' ' and '["admin", 1]' fail; JSON-string me + email; every external_recipients shape; a non-string list entry scores False instead of raising.
  • run_agentic_alert_skill end to end with the tool call haiku sends ("internal_recipients": "[\"admin\"]"): fails on the previous code, passes now.
  • Replay against the job logs of run 40229016049: all 84 logged haiku records (21 items x 4 legs) flip to recipients_correct=True, and no other check failed in them. The one logged gpt6luna record is unchanged.

Risk

nonprod. This changes only the eval package's scoring: a recipient argument sent as a JSON-encoded string is read as the list it encodes. Every other recipient shape scores as before.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Alert recipient checks now handle recipient values supplied as lists, JSON-encoded lists, or strings.
    • External recipient strings can be split on commas and semicolons, while internal recipient strings are treated as individual entries.
    • Empty and null recipient values are handled consistently, and checks support non-string entries in internal recipient lists.

The JSON-decode part (_recipient_list) fixes QA-29902 as described: the replay of run 40229016049 flipping all 84 haiku records looks right.

The concerns below are all about the second change, the exact recipient set on the email-only path. The checker scores the model's raw tool arguments, but the MCP server corrects those arguments before it saves the alert (normalize_recipients in gdc-nas/components/ai/mcp-server/controllers/recipient_helpers.py, rules 1-4). With a strict set comparison, every correction the server makes becomes a false recipients_correct=False on an alert that was saved correctly.

None of this turns nightly red today, since every agent_alert_skill item expects me. It will produce false failures as soon as email-only items are added.

Suggested direction, either of:

  1. Preferred: split the strict email-only rule into its own PR, and in it compare the saved automation's internal/external recipients (read by alert_id before _delete_alert) with the expected set. That removes the need to mirror the server's normalization at all.
  2. Keep it here, but at least address the first four inline comments (rule 3/2 redundant id + the test row at line 284, rule 1 email in internal, case-insensitive emails, lookup failure scored as an agent failure).

packages/gooddata-eval/src/gooddata_eval/core/agentic/alert_skill.py:354-355
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Require every expected email in the internal-recipient fallback.

If the fixture expects a@example.com and b@example.com, a JSON-encoded internal_recipients value of '["user.a"]' now decodes to a list. When the lookup returns user.a and user.b, this intersection scores the alert as correct even though b@example.com receives nothing. Require a match for each expected email, and add a test for a missing recipient. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

@coderabbitai Re the outside-diff finding at alert_skill.py:354-355 (require every expected email in the internal-recipient fallback):

The gap is real, but it predates this PR and stays out of it on purpose.

  • On master, a real list internal_recipients=['user.a'] already passes for expected a@example.com, b@example.com. This PR only reads the JSON-encoded string '["user.a"]' the same way as that list. Before, the string happened to fail because it was taken as one unknown id.
  • An earlier revision of this PR made the email-only check exact. It was moved out after review: the MCP server corrects recipients before it saves the alert (normalize_recipients: an email in internal_recipients moves to external, email-derived and email-covered ids are dropped, emails de-duplicate case-insensitively). Any check on the raw tool arguments, including "every expected email has a matching id", gives false failures on alerts that were saved correctly.
  • The fix will come in its own PR, comparing the saved automation's recipients with the expected set. No current agent_alert_skill item is affected: all of them expect me.

The docstring coverage warning is about the touched test functions. The new helper _recipient_list has a docstring.
