Does FutureSmart Database Agent let the same answer be shown a different way?

FutureSmart Database Agent failed to keep the same answer when asked for a different presentation. The follow-up returned the same table and said it could not render a chart, while an earlier turn in the same conversation showed a bar chart for the same data; the later turn's values also differed from the earlier chart.

The test case

Each test case is judged on its own: Pass, Fail, Not gradable, or Untested. The scenario result above is based on this test case.

Same answer, different representationFailEvidence
What we sent

“Can you show that as a chart instead?”

What the tool returned

The tool's reply is shown in the evidence under Proofs.

Response to input 1 (message 1 of 3) While I cannot render a visual chart here, the table above provides a clear, ordered view of the revenue distribution across categories for the last month. Response to input 1 (message 2 of 3) The lowest-earning category is bedding_and_rugs, generating just $1,203.23. Response to input 1 (message 3 of 3) SELECT category, currency, SUM(total_amount) AS total_revenue FROM orders WHERE placed_at >= '2026-08-01 00:00:00+00' AND placed_at < '2026-09-01 00:00:00+00' GROUP BY category, currency ORDER BY total_revenue DESC

Why this result

The answer had to change form without changing values. Instead, the follow-up kept the table and said it could not render a chart, and the earlier chart for the same data showed different values because the refund filter was missing here.

Also observed in this test case

Share mismatch. The claimed 16% share does not fit the shown numbers; it is closer to 28%.

Request read back. The trace strip shows the product read the chart request before answering.

Limitations of this result

The comparison with the earlier turn is not shown in the graded turn alone.

The follow-up capture does not show the toggle row.

Configuration and setup

How this tool was set up for the run and what the test needed in place. Each row is a fact from the run's records; a fact the records do not hold is left out, not guessed.

How this scenario is graded

How we decide Pass, Fail and Not gradable. The same rules apply to every tool tested on this scenario.

How results are decided

Each test case gets one result per tool: Pass, Fail or Not gradable. A test case we haven't run yet shows Untested. There are no partial results.

The rules
  • Pass: the tool did everything the test expected, and nothing it said contradicts the correct answer.
  • Fail: at least one expected behaviour clearly didn't happen; the test case's result says which one and quotes the tool.
  • Not gradable: our evidence couldn't settle the outcome (for example a record we needed is missing). It is never counted as a fail, and the test case's result says what's missing.

Where this sits in the benchmark

This page is one cell of a larger study: one tool, one scenario. Only this benchmark's frame appears here.

History of this result

What has happened to this result since it was first published. Runs and grades are never overwritten: a retest or a re-grade publishes a new result and keeps the earlier one readable.

Act on this result

Nothing filed here edits the run or the grade. A challenge opens a review, and a review can produce a new run or a re-grade — which becomes the current result and leaves this one in the history.

This matches what I see

You run the same kind of test against your own setup and get the same behaviour.
