Arthashastra / Manusmriti

The Sacred Measure — dharmic standard

Benchmarking framework for LLM agents. Latency, throughput, cost, quality metrics.

Formerly agent-benchmark — Part of the Vedic Arsenal: 100 production-grade Python libraries for LLM agents, each named from the Vedas, Puranas, and Mahakavyas.

The ancient Mapadanda principle from Arthashastra / Manusmriti finds its modern expression in this library.

Just as the Vedic sages understood that every phenomenon in the universe follows deep patterns — patterns of creation, maintenance, and dissolution — mapadanda applies this wisdom to LLM agent engineering.

The concept of मापदंड (The Sacred Measure — dharmic standard) speaks directly to the technical problem this library solves. When the sages codified this principle in Arthashastra / Manusmriti, they were describing not just a spiritual truth but a computational truth that would take humanity millennia to rediscover in silicon.

This is not coincidence. The universe has one nature. The Vedas described it first.
