description: Promptfoo is an open-source LLM evaluation and red-teaming framework distributed as a TypeScript CLI and Node.js
  library under the MIT license. Developers use it to evaluate prompts, models, and RAG pipelines side by side, run automated
  red team attacks against LLM applications, scan code for LLM vulnerabilities in IDE and CI, and proxy Model Context Protocol
  traffic. Promptfoo also operates a commercial Enterprise platform at promptfoo.app for teams that need centralized governance,
  remediation reports, and shared evaluation history.

  description: 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.
