Promptfoo CLI

The Promptfoo CLI is the primary entry point for running prompt and model evaluations from the command line or CI. It is installable via npm, Homebrew, pip, or npx and reads a YAML configuration to fan out evaluations across providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure, Bedrock, Google, and local Ollama models. Outputs include a local web viewer, JSON reports, and CI-friendly exit codes.
