Agents

AI agent reasoning and tool selection tests planning, tool choice, and self-diagnosis capabilities. These skills are crucial for autonomous ticket triage systems and complex agent workflows where models must decide which tools to use, plan multi-step processes, and diagnose when things go wrong. This represents some of the most challenging tasks as they require open-ended reasoning and decision-making.

Input
You want to schedule three follow-up reminders:
• One for tomorrow,
• One for five business days later,
• One exactly two weeks later.
You are allowed to call tools in parallel, as they run in the cloud. What tool calls will you make?
Expected output
First: Call **calendar.get_current_date** → {"action": "get_current_date"} and persist result as "today".

In Parallel:
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 1}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 5}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 14}

Next: For each result, persist separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "date_plus_1", "date_plus_5", "date_plus_14".

Then: For each stored date, call **calendar.schedule_reminder** with {"action": "schedule_reminder", "date": "<calculated_date>", "reminder_text": "Follow-up"}.

Finally: Persist each reminder result separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "reminder_tomorrow", "reminder_5bdays", "reminder_2wks".
Model output
Reasoning: Let me break down my approach for scheduling three reminders:

1. First, I need to inspect the tools available. Looking at the schema, I see I have access to a 'calendar' tool with 'schedule_reminder' and 'add_business_days' methods.

2. For parallel processing, I notice that:
   - The first reminder (tomorrow) is independent
   - The second reminder (5 business days) requires 'add_business_days' calculation
   - The third reminder (2 weeks) is also independent as it's a fixed duration

3. The tool calls needed are:
   a) calendar.get_current_date (to get base date)
   b) calendar.add_business_days (for the +5 business days calculation)
   c) Three calendar.schedule_reminder calls (which can run in parallel once we have the dates)

4. Since the calendar tool supports parallel execution, we can optimize by running independent operations concurrently.

Response: I will make the following tool calls in this order:

1. First batch (parallel):
   - calendar.get_current_date (to get base date)
   - calendar.add_business_days(current_date, 5)

2. Second batch (parallel, after getting dates):
   - calendar.schedule_reminder(tomorrow)
   - calendar.schedule_reminder(five_business_days_later)
   - calendar.schedule_reminder(two_weeks_later)

Total tool calls: 5 operations, executed in 2 parallel batches for optimal efficiency. Each reminder schedule call can run independently once we have the target dates, maximizing parallel execution capabilities while maintaining logical dependencies.
