What it measures

Share of banking questions answered from a policy knowledge base tasks completed within policy in all four trials.

What it does not measure

Not your policies or customers: the tasks and policies are tau2's own, and the customer is simulated by gpt-5.2.

Failures

Failures count against a model: a product with no usable output is a failed listing. They are listed here so you can see why.

Not ranked

  • Distyl ButtonAgent: custom agent scaffold, not the standard harness
  • RAFT-30B-A3B: custom agent scaffold, not the standard harness
