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.

Context

Input

You must find today's date so you can time-stamp a help-desk note. Which tool do you call and with what parameters?

Expected output

Use the **calendar** tool with parameters {"action": "get_current_date"}.

Model output

Reasoning: The task requires finding today's date to time-stamp a help-desk note. Looking at the available tools in the context, I can see there is a 'calendar' tool that has date and time utilities. Specifically, the calendar tool has a method called 'get_current_date' which is designed exactly for this purpose. According to the schema, the 'get_current_date' action only requires the 'action' parameter to be set - no additional parameters are needed. This is the simplest and most direct way to obtain today's date for time-stamping purposes.

Response: To find today's date for time-stamping a help-desk note, I would call the **calendar** tool with the following parameters:

```json
{
  "action": "get_current_date"
}
```

**Tool:** `calendar`
**Method/Action:** `get_current_date`
**Parameters:** Only the action parameter is required - no additional parameters needed.

This is the appropriate choice because:
1. The calendar tool is specifically designed for "Date & time utilities plus reminder scheduling"
2. The `get_current_date` method will return the current date which can then be used to time-stamp the help-desk note
3. According to the schema, this action requires no additional parameters beyond specifying the action itself
