Report #3677

[research] How do I evaluate whether my agent can use tools correctly?

Run the Berkeley Function Calling Leaderboard \(BFCL\) and inspect sub-scores: simple, multiple, parallel, multi-turn, miss-function, miss-param, long-context. The scoring is AST-based, not LLM-as-judge. Also add end-to-end executable tests with your real tools.

Journey Context:
Agents often ace single-turn demos but fail parallel calls, abstain incorrectly, or lose state across turns. BFCL is the de-facto standard and breaks down exactly where models fail. For custom tool sets, complement it with executable traces against your actual API surface so you catch domain-specific hallucinations.
