TEA-Bench: A Systematic Benchmarking of Tool-enhanced Emotional Support Dialogue Agent

Researchers introduce TEA-Bench, the first interactive benchmark for evaluating how external tools improve emotional support conversation (ESC) systems. Testing nine LLMs reveals that tool augmentation reduces hallucination and improves support quality, but effectiveness depends heavily on model capacity—stronger models leverage tools more effectively than weaker ones.

Profile-Then-Reason: Bounded Semantic Complexity for Tool-Augmented Language Agents

Researchers introduce Profile-Then-Reason (PTR), a new framework for AI language agents that use external tools, which reduces computational overhead by pre-planning workflows rather than recomputing after each step. The approach limits language model calls to 2-3 times maximum and shows superior performance in 16 of 24 test configurations compared to reactive execution methods.
