  CURRENT

  `ToolAlpaca` is a framework designed for learning generalized tool-use abilities in compact language models with minimal human supervision. It addresses the challenge of tool learning by generating a tool-use corpus via a multi-agent simulation environment, providing 3.9k tool-use instances from more than 400 tools.
