Agents – anthropic/claude-opus-4.5 Task

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

USER INTERRUPTION: The user says, "Actually, never mind about the reminder — just make sure the company dinner is on my calendar."  What do you do to adapt your plan?

Expected output

I will revise the plan by removing the reminder step entirely, then proceed to: (1) search and read the relevant email to obtain the dinner date, (2) check for calendar conflicts, (3) create the event with calendar.create_event **without** the reminder_days_before parameter, and (4) inform the user of any conflicts and confirm the event has been added.  What matters is that the plan is explicitly updated and no reminder is scheduled.

Model output

Reasoning: The user has interrupted the current flow with new instructions. They explicitly stated they no longer want the reminder - they just want the company dinner added to their calendar. This is a clear change in requirements that I need to adapt to.

My original plan was:
1. Ask user for reminder preference (completed - was waiting for response)
2. Search emails for company dinner info
3. Read email to extract details
4. Add event to calendar with reminder
5. Check for conflicts
6. Notify user

With the user's interruption, I need to modify my plan:
1. ~~Ask user for reminder preference~~ - NO LONGER NEEDED (user cancelled reminder request)
2. Search emails for company dinner info - STILL NEEDED
3. Read email to extract details - STILL NEEDED
4. Add event to calendar WITHOUT reminder - MODIFIED (no reminder_days_before parameter)
5. Check for conflicts - STILL NEEDED
6. Confirm with user - STILL NEEDED

So my adapted plan is simpler: I will proceed to search for the email about the company dinner, extract the date and details, and create a calendar event WITHOUT setting a reminder. This respects the user's updated request while still accomplishing the core task they want done.

Response: I understand! I'll adapt my plan to focus solely on adding the company dinner to your calendar without the reminder.

**Updated Plan:**
1. ~~Ask about reminder preference~~ - Cancelled per your request
2. Search your emails for information about the yearly company dinner
3. Read the relevant email to extract the event date and details
4. Add the event to your calendar (without a reminder)
5. Check for any scheduling conflicts
6. Confirm completion with you

**Next Action:** I will now search your emails for information about the company dinner to find the date and details.

Proceeding with: `email.search_emails` with query: "yearly company dinner"

**Updated Scratch Pad:**
- Current step: Searching emails for company dinner details
- User has cancelled reminder request - will create calendar event WITHOUT reminder_days_before parameter
- Remaining goals:
  - Search emails for company dinner info
  - Extract event details (date, time, location)
  - Add event to calendar (NO reminder)
  - Check for conflicts
  - Confirm with user
- Progress: Step 2 of 5 (plan simplified)
