Funcdex-0.6B-todoist

Funcdex-0.6B is a research preview model by Prem Labs. It has been trained on a mix of Funcdex-MT-Function-Calling, Instruct-Following, Single-turn function datasets. It is a LoRA finetune of Qwen3-0.6B (with thinking disabled).

This model excels at Multi-turn Function Calling with tools from todoist.

The code used to generate the dataset can be found here.

Evaluation

Results

BFCL v3

• We filtered BFCLv3 examples relevant to the toolkits/bundles and report performance:
• The filtered set is only 83 examples. Further emphasizing the need for workflow/toolkit-specialized workflows.

Funcdex-MT: Overall Performance

Funcdex-MT: Toolkit-Level Performance

• Funcdex-0.6B are specialized models. Reported number is the average performance of each specific model in their respective subset.

Funcdex-MT: Bundle/Multi-toolkit Performance:

Inference

• Given a conversation, we extract all tuples (context_messages, function_calls) and use it to generate predictions. We ignore the content field and only evaluate function_calls generated by an LLM.
• We use vLLM deployment with tool_choice="auto".

Metrics

Given a list of predicted and reference function calls, we report two metrics:

• Function Call String Match (SR): We perform greedy match and report best-matched string ratio using difflib.SequenceMatcher.ratio. The number reported is average string ratio.
• Exact Match (EM): Same as above, but we perform exact string match instead. The number reported is EM F1 Score.

EM is a strict metric, and penalizes string arguments in function calls that may be "okay", e.g. "email_content": "This is an example." v/s "email_content": "This is an Example.", both only differ by one letter.
