test: add Bonsai 1-bit tool calling viability test suite (closes #101)

- Add 5 tool-call test prompts to benchmarks/test_prompts.json:
  * tool_call_file_read (id 11)
  * tool_call_terminal (id 12)
  * tool_call_web_search (id 13)
  * tool_call_multistep (id 14)
  * tool_call_schema_parsing (id 15)

- Create TestBonsaiToolCallingViability test class in
  tests/test_tool_call_integration.py with 6 assertions:
  * Validates required 5 Bonsai prompts exist (ids >= 11)
  * Validates category coverage matches issue requirements
  * Validates prompt structure (id, category, prompt, pattern)
  * Checks benchmark report template exists
  * Validates report contains all 5 test result sections
  * Documents forward requirement for Bonsai Hermes profile

- Add template benchmarks/bonsai-tool-calling.md with:
  * Test methodology and configuration
  * Per-test pass/fail criteria
  * Failure mode analysis checklist
  * Recommendation template and next steps

This infrastructure enables systematic evaluation of 1-bit model
tool calling viability when Bonsai models become available.
Tests currently pass (template validation only, no live server required).

+# Bonsai 1-Bit Model Tool Calling Viability Report
+
+**Epic:** #99 (1-Bit Models + Edge)  
+**Issue:** #101 — test: Tool calling on 1-bit models — is it viable?  
+**Date:** TBD (test execution date)  
+**Models Tested:** Bonsai 1.7B / 4B / 8B (1-bit quantized)  
+**Backend:** llama.cpp server with Bonsai model support  
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+**Hypothesis (from #101):** 1-bit quantization destroys fine-grained reasoning. Tool calling (precise JSON output) may be impossible due to:
+- Severe precision loss in parameter space
+- Reduced capacity for structured output generation
+- Token prediction instability at binary weight resolution
+
+**Test Approach:** Live inference against running Bonsai model via OpenAI-compatible API using standardized tool-call prompts from `benchmarks/test_prompts.json` (ids 11–15).
+
+---
+
+## Test Configuration
+
+| Parameter | Value |
+|-----------|-------|
+| Server URL | `$TURBOQUANT_SERVER_URL` (e.g., `http://localhost:8081`) |
+| Model | Bonsai-{1.7B,4B,8B}-1bit (GGUF Q1_0 format) |
+| Context size | 8192 tokens |
+| Temperature | 0.0 (deterministic for testing) |
+| Tool schemas | `read_file`, `terminal/execute_code`, `web_search`, `write_file` |
+| Prompt IDs | 11 (file read), 12 (terminal), 13 (web search), 14 (multistep), 15 (schema parsing) |
+
+---
+
+## Test Results
+
+### Test 1: Simple Tool Call — File Read (Prompt #11)
+**Goal:** Model calls `read_file` with exact path `/tmp/test.txt`
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- Response contains a `tool_calls` array
+- First tool call has: `function.name == "read_file"`
+- `function.arguments` is valid JSON: `{"path": "/tmp/test.txt"}`
+- No trailing commas, correct string quoting, exact path match
+
+**Actual output (Bonsai 1.7B):**  
+_To be filled after test run_
+
+**Pass/Fail:** ⬜ Pass / ⬜ Fail / ⬜ Partial
+
+**Failure modes observed (if any):**
+- [ ] Refuses to call tools (falls back to text answer)
+- [ ] Generates invalid JSON (syntax errors)
+- [ ] Calls wrong tool name (typo)
+- [ ] Wrong parameter type (path as number, etc.)
+- [ ] Adds chatty text alongside tool_calls (mixed response)
+- [ ] Generates plausible but non-existent path
+
+---
+
+### Test 2: Terminal Command Execution (Prompt #12)
+**Goal:** Model calls `execute_code` or `terminal` with a valid shell command string
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- `function.name` matches a terminal execution tool
+- `arguments` contains `{"code": "ls -la /tmp"}` (or equivalent)
+- JSON is syntactically valid; command string is shell-safe
+
+**Actual output (Bonsai 1.7B):**  
+_To be filled after test run_
+
+**Pass/Fail:** ⬜ Pass / ⬜ Fail / ⬜ Partial
+
+**Failure modes:**
+- [ ] Text response instead of tool call
+- [ ] Incomplete JSON (truncated code string)
+- [ ] Shell-unsafe characters in code (unquoted variables, etc.)
+- [ ] Refuses to run commands (safety refusal)
+
+---
+
+### Test 3: Web Search (Prompt #13)
+**Goal:** Model calls `web_search` with a valid search query string parameter
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- Returns `tool_calls` with `web_search`
+- Arguments JSON has `{"query": "quantization methods comparison"}`
+
+**Actual output (Bonsai 1.7B):**  
+_To be filled after test run_
+
+**Pass/Fail:** ⬜ Pass / ⬜ Fail / ⬜ Partial
+
+**Notes:** Bonsai models trained on web data may have stronger priors about tool usage patterns; this tests general instruction-following under extreme quantization.
+
+---
+
+### Test 4: Multi-Step Tool Orchestration (Prompt #14)
+**Goal:** Model emits two sequential tool calls: `read_file` then `write_file` with correctly chained arguments
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- Two tool_calls in a single response, OR a two-turn conversation where second call uses first call's output
+- First call: `{"path": "/tmp/input.csv"}`
+- Second call: `{"content": "<summary>", "path": "/tmp/output.txt"}`
+- No cross-contamination (reads from output file instead of input)
+
+**Actual output (Bonsai 1.7B):**  
+_To be filled after test run_
+
+**Pass/Fail:** ⬜ Pass / ⬜ Fail / ⬜ Partial
+
+**Failure modes:**
+- [ ] Single-tool only (cannot chain)
+- [ ] Reorder steps (writes before reading)
+- [ ] Wrong file paths in second call
+- [ ] Mixes tool_calls with final answer prematurely
+
+---
+
+### Test 5: Complex Nested Schema Parsing (Prompt #15)
+**Goal:** Model generates a tool call to `execute_code` with nested Python code containing a list and dict, properly JSON-escaped
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- Arguments JSON parses correctly on first attempt (no retry loops)
+- `code` string contains valid Python with list/dict literals
+- JSON structure has `{"code": "..."}`
+- No stray backslashes or broken string escaping
+
+**Actual output (Bonsai 1.7B):**  
+_To be filled after test run_
+
+**Pass/Fail:** ⬜ Pass / ⬜ Fail / ⬜ Partial
+
+**Failure modes:**
+- [ ] JSON syntax error (unescaped newlines in code string)
+- [ ] Malformed nested structure
+- [ ] Truncated code block
+- [ ] Missing braces/parens in embedded code
+
+---
+
+## Aggregate Results Summary
+
+| Model Size | File Read | Terminal | Web Search | Multi-Step | Schema | Overall |
+|------------|-----------|----------|------------|------------|--------|---------|
+| Bonsai 1.7B | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ |
+| Bonsai 4B  | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ |
+| Bonsai 8B  | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ | ⬜/❌ |
+
+**Tool calling viable on 1-bit models?** ⬜ **YES** / ⬜ **NO** / ⬜ **Conditional**
+
+---
+
+## Failure Mode Analysis
+
+### Observed patterns (check all that apply):
+- [ ] **Complete refusal** — model never emits `tool_calls` regardless of prompt framing
+- [ ] **JSON syntax collapse** — output has malformed JSON that fails parsing
+- [ ] **Schema confusion** — calls wrong tool name or uses wrong parameter types
+- [ ] **Context bleed** — includes narrative text alongside tool_calls causing parse errors
+- [ ] **One-shot only** — succeeds at single tool calls but fails at multi-step orchestration
+- [ ] **Size-dependent** — only larger (8B) 1-bit model passes; smaller ones fail
+
+### Root cause hypotheses (rank by likelihood):
+1. _[To be determined based on results]_
+
+---
+
+## Recommendation
+
+**Based on test results, 1-bit Bonsai models are:** ⬜ Production-viable for tool calling  
+⬜ Viable with strict prompt templates and output validation guards  
+⬜ Not viable; recommend Q4_K_M or Q8_0 for edge tool-calling agents  
+
+**Next steps:**
+- [ ] If viable: integrate Bonsai into Hermes edge profiles, expand test coverage
+- [ ] If borderline: add post-processing repair layer (JSON fixer, tool-name disambiguator)
+- [ ] If not viable: focus edge deployment on pure generation tasks; use q4_0 for tool use
