Instead of defining an agent inside Calibrate, you can point the CLI at an agent you’ve already deployed. Pick the connection type that matches your agent:

Chat agent

Standard HTTP chat, including OpenAI-compatible APIs, for evaluating the agent’s logic

Outbound voice agent

End-to-end evaluation by simulating real audio calls with the agent

​
Verify your connection

Confirm Calibrate can verify your agent is reachable and returns the correct response format before running any evaluation. Chat agent — checks the agent’s reachability and the correctness of its response format. It sends a sample request to the agent and expects a JSON response with at least one of response or tool_calls:
Outbound voice agent — Calibrate opens the WebSocket and confirms the handshake automatically before each voice run. This is a reachability check only and does not confirm whether the frame protocol or serializer is compatible.
Pass --skip-verify to a run to bypass the pre-run connection check, which can useful when you’ve already verified the agent and don’t want to run the check again.
