🦤 Toucan-1.5M:
Toucan-1.5M is the largest fully synthetic tool-agent dataset to date, designed to advance tool use in agentic LLMs. It comprises over 1.5 million trajectories synthesized from 495 real-world Model Context Protocols (MCPs) spanning 2,000+ tools. By leveraging authentic MCP environments, Toucan-1.5M generates diverse, realistic, and challenging tasks requires using multiple tools, with trajectories involving real tool executions across multi-round, multi-turn, sequential, and parallel tool calls. Models fine-tuned on Toucan-1.5M outperform much larger closed-source counterparts on the BFCL V3 benchmark and extend the Pareto frontier on the MCP-Universe benchmark.

About This Model
This model is a fine-tuned variant of Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct, trained on a curated subset of the Toucan-1.5M dataset. The supervised fine-tuning (SFT) subset consists of 119.3K instances in total, including:
- 28.3K from the original pipeline
- 40K from Extension 1 (Irrelevance)
- 15.8K from Extension 2 (Diversify)
- 35.2K from Extension 3 (Multi-Turn)
We adopt the Hermes prompt template for fine-tuning. For a detailed description of the training setup and hyperparameters, please refer to our technical report.
Model Performance
Toucan-1.5M remarkably improves baseline model performance through SFT and enables smaller models to outperform larger models across different evaluation aspects, as evidenced in BFCL-V3 and MCP Universe benchmarks.
