Report #9585

[research] Agent behavior breaks unexpectedly after LLM provider model updates

Implement a pinned-model regression eval suite that runs against a golden dataset of tool-call traces, asserting exact tool names and argument schemas rather than just final text output.

Journey Context:
Model updates often change how an agent formats JSON arguments for tools, causing silent breakages. Evaluating only the final natural language output misses tool-call formatting regressions. By asserting against the structured tool-call traces in your observability platform, you catch breaking changes before they reach production.
