Report #36387

[research] Agent calls the wrong tool or passes invalid parameters, but the final output is evaluated as a pass

Decouple outcome evals from process evals; explicitly score Tool Selection Accuracy and Argument Completeness at the trace level.

Journey Context:
If an agent searches a codebase \(tool A\) instead of running a test \(tool B\), but eventually guesses the right answer, an outcome-based eval gives it a pass. This masks a dangerous process failure that will fail on harder tasks. Frameworks like Ragas provide specific metrics for Tool Call Accuracy, comparing the predicted tool call against the ground truth.
