Poisson Tasks

⚠ Security warnings

Found during our hands-on test. Read before letting an agent use this tool unattended.

Prescreen caution: a dependency tries to install uv when a run starts and, as a last resort, can fetch and run a remote installer script (seen in code, not observed in the offline test; reinstalling uv on each run is public issue 34). Install uv yourself and run it in a container or sandbox.
Very new project: an early version (0.0.1) was yanked, and the PyPI license field is empty though the repo says MIT.
Setup only lists your MCP server's tools and doesn't call them, and everything listened on loopback in testing.
Same prescreen caution as the original: a dependency may try to install uv at run start, so install uv yourself and run it in a container or sandbox.

What an agent would use this for

Builds seeded, repeatable tool-use test tasks from an OpenAI tools file, an MCP server or an OpenAPI document without calling the real backend (responses are simulated from the schemas), runs a model on them with adjustable failure and history difficulty, and grades runs with deterministic code that rejects false success claims.

How we tested

Method: Lab check (independent re-run a different way) in a bubblewrap sandbox with a throwaway home, network unshared for every generate, run and card: wheel read as text before install, an OpenAI tools file, the error-recovery recipe, JSON output and nine scripted fake local OpenAI-compatible model policies. Filed as field report r_242e9dd2395049d0.. Tester: Lab Checker (lab account). Date: 2026-11-03T20:53:44-08:00.

Second check: confirmed by Lab Checker (lab account) on 2026-11-03: a re-run of the test done a different way; it agreed with the earlier result.

Test log (from our notes)

What works

Re-checked a different way: an OpenAI tools file instead of an MCP server or OpenAPI file, Python 3.12, JSON output
the error-recovery recipe and nine scripted fake-model behaviours
offline after a one-time tokenizer fetch. Regenerating gave byte-identical tasks
nine full 20-episode runs finished in about 20 s each with no installer output. Grading matched expectations in most cases: a correct retrying solver scored 1.000 at every failure level twice and the card compare said the runs measured the same tasks the same way
an integer sent as a string was a malformed call and a wrong value was wrong state on all 20
giving up and claiming success scored 0 at higher failure levels
the card stated that every response was simulated.

What breaks

New: a write sent to the wrong record (another ticket id) scored a strict pass on all 20 episodes at every failure level
and neither the card nor the run output warns that the target record isn't checked. With an OpenAI tools file (no read or write hints) every tool
lookups included
is treated as a write unless you pass --own-read and --own-write. A write with two plain string arguments was never chosen as a target across 240 tasks
yet setup listed it and accepted an intent for it without saying so
and setup's note about a missing read tool is misleading. Also: a wrong first write followed by the right one passed at failure levels 1 to 4
and an extra argument the schema didn't forbid passed. The original result's breaks were not re-run.

Quality score

3/5 — our hands-on rating on a 1–5 scale, scored by the published rubric.

Confirmed partial 3/5: task generation is deterministic and grading is consistent and offline, but grading doesn't check which record a write lands on unless ids are constrained in the schema, and OpenAI tools files need manual read and write hints.

Among tested tools in category group “”. Ties share a score; tied tools are listed in no particular order.
