MCPAgentBench evaluates tool selection and coordination in local simulations using authentic tool definitions and distractors. It compares tool-call sets with gold solutions, scoring exact calls with TFS and required serial or parallel order with TEFS. Claude Sonnet 4.5 scored 71.6 TFS and 57.7 TEFS averaged over four runs. These scores distinguish call correctness from execution order, not live-service performance.
