Qwen 2.5 executes 80 tool calls autonomously in local agent test
synth_mania · reddit · 2026-08-20
A user reports that Qwen 2.5 27B demonstrates exceptional agency for a local model. In one test, it successfully navigated complex university websites to pull a class schedule using only credentials, executing 80 tool calls without intervention. In another, it investigated a social media user by downloading a video, extracting frames, installing OpenAI Whisper for transcription, and analyzing the content. The user notes this capability runs locally on a single RTX 3090.
