Bloom automated behavioral evaluations

Anthropic · 19 December 2025

Bloom is an open-source agent framework that turns a named behavior into a suite of generated scenarios and measures its frequency and severity.

Complements Petri. Instead of open-ended auditing, a researcher specifies one behavior and Bloom generates scenarios, runs them and scores them. Anthropic released results for four behaviors on 16 models; its scores correlated strongly with hand labels and separated misaligned model organisms from baselines.
