    "\n",
    "Some Llama models (such as Llama-3.2-1B, Llama-3.2-3B, Llama-3.3-70B, and Llama-4) support a \"pythonic\" tool call format, where the model outputs function calls as Python code, e.g.:\n",
    "\n",
    "```python\n",
    "[get_current_weather(city=\"San Francisco\", state=\"CA\", unit=\"celsius\")]\n",
    "```\n",
    "\n",
    "- The output is a Python list of function calls, with arguments as Python literals (not JSON).\n",
    "- Multiple tool calls can be returned in the same list:\n",
    "```python\n",
    "[get_current_weather(city=\"San Francisco\", state=\"CA\", unit=\"celsius\"),\n",
    " get_current_weather(city=\"New York\", state=\"NY\", unit=\"fahrenheit\")]\n",

    "### How to enable\n",
    "- Launch the server with `--tool-call-parser pythonic`\n",
    "- You may also specify --chat-template with the improved template for the model (e.g., `--chat-template=examples/chat_template/tool_chat_template_llama4_pythonic.jinja`).\n",
    "This is recommended because the model expects a special prompt format to reliably produce valid pythonic tool call outputs. The template ensures that the prompt structure (e.g., special tokens, message boundaries like `<|eom|>`, and function call delimiters) matches what the model was trained or fine-tuned on. If you do not use the correct chat template, tool calling may fail or produce inconsistent results.\n",
    "\n",
    "#### Forcing Pythonic Tool Call Output Without a Chat Template\n",
