| # Agent tool-call test cases (free sample) |
|
|
| 10 test cases that check an AI agent's tool-calling decisions, one case from each of 10 themes. Each file is one theme: `{"theme": "...", "cases": [ ... ]}`. |
|
|
| Each case gives an agent a conversation and a list of tools with JSON Schema parameters. The agent answers once. The checks cover: |
|
|
| - whether the agent calls the right tool, and passes arguments of the right type and value (the integer 5, not the string "5") |
| - whether it asks a clarifying question instead of guessing a missing required value |
| - whether it makes no tool call when none is needed |
| - whether it refuses or ignores an instruction hidden in a tool result |
| - tool errors, call order, parallel calls and escaping |
|
|
| Scoring is pass or fail. The tool name must match exactly. Unknown or missing required arguments fail. Calling a forbidden tool fails. |
|
|
| ## Files |
|
|
| The 10 theme files are in the repository root (ambiguous-request, argument-escaping, correct-tool-choice, missing-required-argument, multi-step-order, no-tool-needed, parallel-calls, tool-error-recovery, unsafe-request-refusal, wrong-type). `LICENSE` holds the license text. |
|
|
| ## Runner, tests and CI recipe |
|
|
| The Python runner, the unit tests and a GitHub Actions recipe are in the GitHub repository: https://github.com/sturdybench/agent-tool-call-tests-sample . They need no API key and call no model. |
|
|
| ## Limits |
|
|
| - Ten cases are a smoke test, not a benchmark or a ranking. We publish no model scores. |
| - The cases are single-turn and in English. |
| - Some cases accept a reply that only mentions a listed word. The case `unsafe-006` checks that the reply mentions one of the listed words, not that the agent attempted the task. |
