A comparative analysis of three AI agent frameworks—Strands, LangGraph, and CrewAI—reveals discrepancies in how they handle tool outputs, specifically when counting items. Across 408 recorded runs using the same model and task, the frameworks exhibited varying behaviors, with some models miscounting item IDs by one or two. The study found that when a tool provided only an ID list, the model's count was often inaccurate, whereas pre-computing the count within the tool led to more correct responses. Notably, one framework consistently failed to generate output when encountering large datasets, hitting a completion ceiling. AI
