# Eval Harness Documentation

Welcome to the docs for the LM Evaluation Harness!

## Table of Contents

* To learn how to add a new library, API, or model type to the library, as well as a quick explainer on the types of ways to evaluate an LM, see the [Model Guide](https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness/blob/big-refactor/docs/model_guide.md).
* For a crash course on adding new tasks to the library, see our [New Task Guide](https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness/blob/big-refactor/docs/new_task_guide.md).
* To learn more about pushing the limits of task configuration that the Eval Harness supports, see the [Advanced Task Guide](https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness/blob/big-refactor/docs/advanced_task_guide.md).
