Review Summary
✅ Approved - No bugs found in the changed code.
This PR successfully adds reason tracking to relevance check failures. The implementation is solid:
- The new
RelevanceResultstruct properly encapsulates both criterion and reason - The refactored
parseJudgeResponsecorrectly returns structured results with proper fallback handling - Concurrent processing in
CheckRelevanceis safe with pre-allocated indexed results - Error handling is consistent across all code paths
- Empty reason strings are handled gracefully with conditional formatting
- All tests have been updated to verify the new behavior
The changes improve debuggability by providing explanations for failed relevance checks without introducing any logic errors or bugs.

When running cagent eval with relevance checks, the LLM judge now provides a reason explaining why each check passed or failed. This reason is now captured and displayed in the output, making it easier to understand why a relevance check failed. Output format changed from: ✗ relevance: <criterion> To: ✗ relevance: <criterion> (reason: <explanation>) Assisted-By: cagent
