-**ToolLLM** is a general-purpose tool-use framework introduced by Qin et al. (2023) that enables open-source LLMs to effectively leverage a massive collection of real-world APIs. The paper has accumulated over **1,305 citations**, establishing it as a foundational work in LLM tool-use research. The framework addresses a critical gap between closed-source models (e.g., ChatGPT) and open-source alternatives by providing a comprehensive data construction, training, and evaluation pipeline.+**ToolLLM** is a general-purpose tool-use framework introduced by Qin et al. (2023)(([[https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.16789|Qin et al. "ToolLLM: Facilitating Large Language Models to Master 16,000+ Real-World APIs" (2023)]])) that enables open-source LLMs to effectively leverage a massive collection of real-world APIs. The paper has accumulated over **1,305 citations**, establishing it as a foundational work in LLM tool-use research, building on earlier work like Toolformer((([[https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.04761|Schick et al. "Toolformer: Language Models Can Teach Themselves to Use Tools" (2023).]]))) and Large Language Models as Tool Makers((([[https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.17126|Cai et al. "Large Language Models as Tool Makers" (2023).]])))). The framework addresses a critical gap between closed-source models (e.g., ChatGPT) and open-source alternatives by providing a comprehensive data construction, training, and evaluation pipeline.
