MySQL used to build LLM prompt evaluation gate

A developer has detailed a method for managing LLM prompts in production systems by using MySQL as a workflow engine. This approach creates an evaluation gate that tests prompt changes against pre-configured datasets before they are deployed live. The system involves a multi-stage asynchronous pipeline managed by background workers that materialize datasets, execute LLM calls, compute accuracy metrics, and finally reconcile the changes, ensuring that prompt updates only go live if they meet predefined accuracy thresholds.
