τ-bench: A Benchmark for Tool-Agent-User Interaction in Real-World Domains
arXiv
τ-bench is a benchmark, submitted to arXiv in June 2024, that tests language agents in dynamic conversations with a simulated user, with domain-specific API tools and policy rules, and scores them by database state rather than by the text of their replies.
