What makes an Agent or Team reliable?
  • Does it make the expected tool calls?
  • Does it handle errors gracefully?
  • Does it respect the rate limits of the model API?

​
Basic Tool Call Reliability

The first check is to ensure the Agent makes the expected tool calls. Here’s an example:
reliability.py
from typing import Optional

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.reliability import ReliabilityEval, ReliabilityResult
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.run.agent import RunOutput
from agno.tools.calculator import CalculatorTools


def factorial():
    agent = Agent(
        model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-5-mini"),
        tools=[CalculatorTools()],
    )
    response: RunOutput = agent.run("What is 10!?")
    evaluation = ReliabilityEval(
        name="Tool Call Reliability",
        agent_response=response,
        expected_tool_calls=["factorial"],
    )
    result: Optional[ReliabilityResult] = evaluation.run(print_results=True)
    result.assert_passed()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    factorial()

​
Multiple Tool Calls Reliability

Test that agents make multiple tool calls:
multiple_tool_calls.py
from typing import Optional

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.reliability import ReliabilityEval, ReliabilityResult
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.run.agent import RunOutput
from agno.tools.calculator import CalculatorTools


def multiply_and_exponentiate():
    agent = Agent(
        model=OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o-mini"),
        tools=[CalculatorTools()],
    )
    response: RunOutput = agent.run(
        "What is 10*5 then to the power of 2? do it step by step"
    )
    evaluation = ReliabilityEval(
        name="Tool Calls Reliability",
        agent_response=response,
        expected_tool_calls=["multiply", "exponentiate"],
    )
    result: Optional[ReliabilityResult] = evaluation.run(print_results=True)
    if result:
        result.assert_passed()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    multiply_and_exponentiate()

​
Team Reliability

Test how teams handle various error conditions:
team_reliability.py
from typing import Optional

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.reliability import ReliabilityEval, ReliabilityResult
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIChat
from agno.run.team import TeamRunOutput
from agno.team import Team
from agno.tools.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoTools

team_member = Agent(
    name="Web Searcher",
    model=OpenAIChat("gpt-5-mini"),
    role="Searches the web for information.",
    tools=[DuckDuckGoTools(enable_news=True)],
)

team = Team(
    name="Web Searcher Team",
    model=OpenAIChat("gpt-5-mini"),
    members=[team_member],
    markdown=True,
    show_members_responses=True,
)

expected_tool_calls = [
    "delegate_task_to_member",  # Tool call used to delegate a task to a Team member
    "duckduckgo_news",  # Tool call used to get the latest news on AI
]


def evaluate_team_reliability():
    response: TeamRunOutput = team.run("What is the latest news on AI?")
    evaluation = ReliabilityEval(
        name="Team Reliability Evaluation",
        team_response=response,
        expected_tool_calls=expected_tool_calls,
    )
    result: Optional[ReliabilityResult] = evaluation.run(print_results=True)
    if result:
        result.assert_passed()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    evaluate_team_reliability()
