# Tool Search live test harness
Runs five scenarios against a real model (Claude Haiku 4.5 via OpenRouter) to
verify that the bridge tools work end-to-end. Records transcripts in
`scripts/out/`.
## Running
```bash
cd <repo root>
python3 scripts/tool_search_livetest.py # runs all 5 scenarios x 2 modes
python3 scripts/analyze_livetest.py # side-by-side report
```
Requires `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` set or present in `~/.hermes/.env`.
## What it verifies
| Scenario | Tests |
|----------|-------|
| A obvious_single | BM25 retrieval on an obvious tool name (github_create_issue) |
| B vague_paraphrased | Retrieval when the model has to paraphrase ("schedule meeting" → evt_create) |
| C multi_tool_chain | Multi-step task chaining two deferred tools (GitHub + Slack) |
| D core_plus_deferred | Mixed: core tool (read_file) called directly, deferred tool (Slack) via bridge |
| E no_tool_needed | Pure-knowledge prompt; verify no spurious tool_search invocations |
Each scenario runs with `tool_search.enabled = on` and again with `off` for an
A/B baseline. The harness records:
- bridge_calls (the tool_search / tool_describe / tool_call sequence the model emitted)
- underlying_tool_calls (what actually ran through the registry dispatcher)
- final_response, iteration count, elapsed time, any errors
## Output structure
```
scripts/out/
<scenario>__enabled.json # tool_search ON
<scenario>__disabled.json # tool_search OFF
_summary.json # one-line summary across all runs
```
The 2026-05 baseline run is checked in for reference. Re-running may produce
slightly different transcripts (the model is non-deterministic) but the
expected_underlying_tools assertions should remain satisfied.
