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
After calling database.get_customer with customer_id 'CUST789', you received: {\"customer_id\":\"CUST789\",\"name\":\"Sarah Chen\",\"email\":\"sarah.chen@email.com\",\"account_status\":\"active\"}. You stored this with key 'customer_info'. Then database.list_orders with customer_id 'CUST789' returned: {\"orders\":[],\"message\":\"No orders found for customer\"}. You stored this with key 'customer_orders'. The customer claims they have an ongoing purchase needing address change. How should you handle this discrepancy and what is your next action?
Expected output
Reasoning: There's a discrepancy - customer claims ongoing purchase but 'customer_orders' shows no orders found. This could indicate: wrong customer ID, order under different account, or customer confusion. I need to gather more information before proceeding. Next action: Call email.draft_email to politely ask Sarah Chen to provide her order number or confirmation email, explaining we need to locate her order to assist with the address change.
Model output
Reasoning: I need to analyze the discrepancy between the customer's claim of having an ongoing purchase and the database showing no orders for this customer. Let me break down what we know:

1. We have a customer (Sarah Chen, ID: CUST789) who is active in our system.
2. The customer claims to have an ongoing purchase and wants to change the shipping address.
3. However, when we queried the database for this customer's orders, it returned an empty list with the message "No orders found for customer".

This is a clear discrepancy that needs resolution. There are several possibilities:

1. The order might be associated with a different customer ID (perhaps the customer has multiple accounts).
2. The order might exist in a different system or database that we haven't queried yet.
3. The customer might be mistaken or confused about having placed an order with us.
4. There could be a technical issue with our database or lookup process.

My next steps should be to gather more information from the customer to help resolve this discrepancy.

Response: I've identified a discrepancy between the customer's claim of having an ongoing purchase and our database showing no orders for their account. The customer Sarah Chen (CUST789) is active in our system, but when querying for their orders, our database returned "No orders found for customer".

My next action would be to contact the customer to gather more information. I'll draft an email to Sarah explaining the situation and asking for additional details about their purchase, such as an order number, purchase date, or product description. This will help us locate the order in our system or determine if there's been a misunderstanding.

I'll use the email tool to draft a polite response requesting these details, making it clear that we want to help with their address change but need to locate their order first. Once we receive the additional information, we can properly investigate why the order isn't showing up under their customer profile and then proceed with updating the shipping address if applicable.
