They are causal autoregressive models, the output is sensitive even to the implementation nuances in inference. Even 1 token that's badly selected could throw off the entire answer.

you're thinking of one shot. if they are running an agentic loop then they don't need multiple passes. an agentic loop is multiple passes with tool calls and tools could fail and agent would correct from seeing the failure. a bad model will compound on error and fail, a good model will correct. 1 test is fine to gauge the quality of the model.
