Evaluate the candidate response against the reference ground truth and provided context.

Context: {context}
Question: {question}
Ground Truth: {reference_answer}
Candidate Response: {candidate_response}

Score the candidate on a scale of 1 to 5 for each criterion:
1. Correctness: Does the response convey the identical facts as Ground Truth?
2. Groundedness: Are all claims supported by Context? (1 = Severe hallucination, 5 = Fully grounded)
3. Conciseness: Is the response free from repetitive padding or excessive preamble?

Return your evaluation strictly in the following JSON format:

  "conciseness": [score 1-5],
