 """
 LLM-based judge for semantic evaluation of test results.

-Used by tests that need to evaluate semantic properties like
-"no hallucination" or "preserves meaning" that can't be checked
-with simple assertions.
-
-Usage in tests:
-    from framework.testing.llm_judge import LLMJudge
-
-    # Default: uses Anthropic (requires ANTHROPIC_API_KEY)
-    judge = LLMJudge()
-    result = judge.evaluate(

-        summary="The summary to evaluate...",
-        criteria="Summary must only contain facts from the source"
-    )
-    assert result["passes"], result["explanation"]
-
-    # With custom LLM provider:
-    from framework.llm.litellm import LiteLLMProvider
-    judge = LLMJudge(llm_provider=LiteLLMProvider(model="gpt-4o-mini"))
+Refactored to be provider-agnostic while maintaining 100% backward compatibility.
