Project Overview: devrel-eval-worker
I decided to lock devrel-eval-worker at the v0 ingestion milestone: ingestion is functionally complete, scope is intentionally frozen, and the next work should build on deterministic storage behavior rather than expanding API surface area.
What We Built
- A Cloudflare Workers API focused on session-based ingestion, deterministic chunk canonicalization + hashing, idempotent deduplication, and deferred evaluation persistence.
- A TypeScript/Workers codebase with clear domain boundaries across ingestion, canonicalization, hashing, rubric/scoring, and DB access (
src/modules called out in the inventory). - Operational scripts for local development, deploys, D1 migration management, and user-centric review ingestion (
npm run review:user -- <github-username>). - Baseline CI that runs
npm ciandnpm testonmainpushes and pull requests, keeping the ingestion foundation verifiable before broader evaluation logic changes.
Why We Built It
- I optimized for determinism first: if ingestion and dedupe are stable and repeatable, downstream evaluation can be improved safely without reworking storage semantics.
- I kept infrastructure intentionally light (Workers + D1 + scripts) so agents and humans can run the same workflow quickly and with minimal operational overhead.
- I treated this milestone as a handoff point: README guidance, migration order, and agent operations docs establish a reliable path for follow-on work instead of reopening core ingestion decisions.
- Evidence from the latest session aligns with this direction: the primary theme was building the worker end-to-end around ingestion and evaluation flow, and there are no newer commits/signals indicating a scope change.
How It Works
- The service runs as a Workers API (
wrangler dev/wrangler deploy) with D1-backed state and explicit migration commands for local-first validation, then remote apply. - Ingestion is session-oriented and dedupe-aware: content is normalized/canonicalized, hashed deterministically, and stored idempotently so retries do not create divergent records.
- Evaluation is deferred, not inlined into ingestion writes, which keeps ingestion predictable and lets scoring/rubric logic evolve with less risk to ingestion correctness.
- Team usage is codified in docs:
docs/agent-operations.mdfor queued/automated agent flow anddocs/v1-handoff.mdfor the next implementation phase.
