ToolCall-Badcase
Models choose a tool and its arguments for 200 cases drawn from real user failure reports. Each case has a ground-truth call.
In-house Z.ai evaluation. The cases are not public.

GLM-5 leads with 95.8%
Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

| # | Model | Score | Setting | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | GLM-5 | 95.8% | Feb 2026 | Lab model card |
Z.ai’s own number for GLM-5 passed 85% in February 2026
All the scores we have, one dot each, so a model tested at several settings appears more than once.

Labs report it only in system cards
We read the headline results of 522 launch posts from 52 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.
One system card reports it
Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
