feat: add behavioral tests and EvalHub integration for CrewAI websearch agent
Adds pytest behavioral tests and EvalHub fixture for the CrewAI websearch agent, following the same pattern as the LangGraph and vanilla Python agents. No agent source code changes. Behavioral tests: - test_tool_usage: tool selection accuracy, no hallucinated tools, valid args, greeting no-tool (parametrized from golden queries) - test_response_quality: plan coherence, response completeness - test_cost_latency: p95 latency threshold - test_reliability: pass@k for tool usage and response quality EvalHub integration: - evalhub/tool_use.yaml fixture with 5 golden queries - Containerfile COPY + build-time assertion - run-e2e.sh route discovery, health check, job submission Config and docs: - thresholds.yaml: crewai_websearch section - pyproject.toml: crewai_websearch marker - Root conftest: agent URL mapping + report header - README, adding-behavioral-tests.md, adding-evalhub-agent-integration.md, evalhub_adapter README: cross-references Note: MLflow TOOL span extraction is not functional due to a CrewAI/MLflow version incompatibility (RHAIENG-5069). Tests gracefully degrade via pytest.skip and content-based fallbacks. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

### Behavioral tests
283+
284+
Behavioral tests validate tool selection, response quality, latency, and reliability against a live agent. They require MLflow tracing to extract tool_calls from trace spans.

CREWAI_WEBSEARCH_AGENT_URL=https://<agent-route> \

# CrewAI Websearch Agent - Behavioral Tests

13+
MLFLOW_TRACKING_INSECURE_TLS=true \
14+
pytest agents/crewai/websearch_agent/tests/behavioral/ -m crewai_websearch -v
15+
```
16+
17+
## Known issue: intermittent HTTP 500 ("Invalid response from LLM call")
18+
19+
CrewAI's multi-step ReAct loop makes **multiple sequential LLM calls** per user request (agent reasoning, tool call, observation, final answer). After the tool-use loop, CrewAI makes one final `llm.call()` to produce the answer (`crewai/utilities/agent_utils.py:291`). If the model returns an empty completion on **any** of these internal calls, CrewAI raises a hard `ValueError("Invalid response from LLM call - None or empty.")` with no retry.
20+
21+
The other agents in this repo are not affected:
22+
23+
- **LangGraph** uses LangChain's chat model, which has more robust response parsing and retry logic.
24+
- **Vanilla Python (OpenAI Responses)** uses the OpenAI SDK directly, which raises specific API errors rather than empty responses.
25+
26+
The `vllm-20b` model endpoint occasionally returns empty completions. Because CrewAI makes more LLM round-trips per request than the other agents, it has a higher probability of hitting an empty response on at least one call. This is a model reliability issue amplified by CrewAI's architecture, not a test or tracing problem.
27+
28+
### Impact on test results
29+
30+
- `test_tool_selection_accuracy` and `test_tool_call_has_valid_args` may fail with HTTP 500 when the model returns empty on any internal LLM call.
31+
- `test_pass_at_k_tool_usage` runs 8 iterations; if most hit 500s, the pass rate drops below the 0.85 threshold.
32+
- Tests that don't trigger tool use (greetings, coherence) are less affected since they require fewer LLM round-trips.
