Catherine Wu contributed to the huggingface/gorilla repository by enhancing the Berkeley Function-Call Leaderboard’s reliability and maintainability. She reorganized configuration constants and evaluation data, implemented strict model-name validation, and expanded model support to include Gemini-2.5-pro, Grok-3, Phi-4, GPT-4.1, and Qwen 3-series models. Using Python and the Transformers library, Catherine centralized metadata, improved error handling, and enabled offline inference through CLI enhancements. Her work focused on backend development, code refactoring, and documentation updates, resulting in streamlined onboarding, reduced technical debt, and more robust evaluation pipelines. These improvements supported scalable model integration and more reliable automated testing.

In May 2025, focused on stabilizing the Berkeley Function-Call Leaderboard (BFCL) in huggingface/gorilla. Key work included implementing strict model-name validation, aligning error handling with MODEL_CONFIG_MAPPING, expanding model coverage with Qwen 3-series models, and updating docs/config to support these changes. These changes improve reliability, reduce user friction, and enable quicker onboarding for new models.

March 2025 highlights: Reorganized and standardized configuration constants and metadata for the huggingface/gorilla repo to improve maintainability, readability, and onboarding. Implemented a dedicated constants directory and relocated model_metadata to bfcl/constants, with import updates across the codebase. Completed a targeted cleanup of the BFCL evaluation runner by relocating executable test ground-truth data to ./data/possible_answer, updating the evaluation prompt to include execution_result_type, and adjusting cleanup logic. These changes reduce technical debt, streamline testing, and enable more reliable, scalable feature development. Technologies demonstrated include Python module refactoring, repository hygiene, test data management, and prompt/data handling for evaluation tooling.
