| # ToolMisuseBench Scoring Protocol | |
| This document defines the official scoring protocol for ToolMisuseBench. | |
| ## Evaluation Setup | |
| Each task is executed as an episode: | |
| 1. environment reset with task initial state | |
| 2. agent receives observation (instruction, tools, transcript, remaining budget, last error) | |
| 3. agent proposes tool action | |
| 4. environment validates action, applies faults, executes tool call | |
| 5. process repeats until success or termination (budget/retry/agent stop) | |
| ## Core Per-Task Metrics | |
| For each task: | |
| - **TaskSuccess (0/1)** | |
| 1 if final state satisfies `success_criteria`, else 0. | |
| - **PolicyViolations (count)** | |
| Count of policy-related and schema-invalid behaviors (e.g., invalid arguments, authz-denied calls). | |
| - **InvalidCallRate (float)** | |
| `invalid_calls / total_tool_calls`. | |
| - **RecoverySuccess (0/1)** | |
| 1 if task succeeds after at least one injected fault is encountered. | |
| - **TimeToRecovery (int or null)** | |
| Steps from first observed injected fault to first subsequent successful tool call. | |
| - **ToolCallsUsed (count)** | |
| Number of tool calls made in the episode. | |
| - **BudgetExceeded (0/1)** | |
| 1 if episode terminates due to `budget_exceeded` or `retry_exceeded`. | |
| - **CatastrophicFailure (0/1)** | |
| 1 if budget exceeded, invalid-call threshold exceeded, or task fails terminally. | |
| - **PrimaryFault (string)** | |
| First fault type in task fault plan, or `clean` if no faults. | |
| ## Aggregate Metrics | |
| Aggregate per agent is the mean over tasks for all scalar metrics, with: | |
| - `TimeToRecovery`: mean over non-null values only | |
| ## Budgeted Success Curve and AUC | |
| Compute success under tool-call caps: | |
| - `k ∈ {4, 8, 16, 32}` | |
| - success at cap `k` is the fraction of tasks where: | |
| - `TaskSuccess = 1`, and | |
| - `ToolCallsUsed <= k` | |
| AUC is normalized trapezoidal area over the success-vs-budget curve. | |
| ## Official CLI Commands | |
| ### Evaluate one agent | |
| ```bash | |
| toolmisusebench eval \ | |
| --dataset data/toolmisusebench_v0_1 \ | |
| --split test_public \ | |
| --agent heuristic \ | |
| --report out/report.json | |
| ``` | |
| ### Reproduce experiment artifacts | |
| ```bash | |
| toolmisusebench reproduce-paper \ | |
| --config experiments/configs/v0_1.yaml | |
| ``` | |
| ## Output Artifacts | |
| Typical outputs: | |
| - `report.json` (aggregate + per-task metrics + budgeted success) | |
| - `report.traces.jsonl` (episode traces) | |
| - experiment outputs: | |
| - `results.json` | |
| - `table1_overall.csv` | |
| - `table2_fault_breakdown.csv` | |
| - `figure1_budgeted_success.csv` | |
| - `figure2_time_to_recovery.csv` | |
| ## Quality and Coherence Validation | |
| Dataset generation includes coherence checks ensuring each task is self-consistent: | |
| - domain-state consistency | |
| - valid tool references in criteria/fault plans | |
| - structurally valid success criteria | |
| - schema-drift argument validity checks | |
| Generation fails if coherence checks report issues. | |
| ## Notes for Custom Agents | |
| Custom agents can be evaluated via: | |
| ```bash | |
| toolmisusebench eval \ | |
| --dataset data/toolmisusebench_v0_1 \ | |
| --split test_public \ | |
| --agent-module your_pkg.your_agent:YourAgent \ | |
| --agent-kwargs '{"param":"value"}' \ | |
| --report out/custom_agent_report.json | |
| ``` | |
| Required interface: | |
| - `reset() -> None` | |
| - `act(observation) -> Action | None` | |
