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.

The scratch_pad is missing updates for cycles 21-25. Under the operating principles, what should you do immediately to rectify this before proceeding?
Expected output
Update the scratch_pad to back-fill concise summaries for cycles 21-25 (lead approval received, draft_review_351 created, readiness to publish, etc.), correct the progress counter, and ensure the current step reflects the true state. Only after the scratch_pad is consistent should the agent continue with further actions.
Model output
Reasoning: Looking at the context, I can see that the trajectory summary covers cycles 1-24, but the current_cycle is 25. According to the operating principles, specifically the 'Scratch_pad protocol' section, I must ensure the scratch_pad is updated at every cycle with: current step and brief summary, remaining goals, notes and assumptions, and a progress counter.

Since cycles 21-25 are missing from the scratch_pad updates (the trajectory only goes up to cycle 24), and I'm now at cycle 25, I need to immediately update the scratch_pad before proceeding with any other actions. This is a mandatory requirement under the operating principles.

The scratch_pad should include:
1. Current step: Cycle 25 - Finalizing and posting the review
2. Brief summary: Received approval from lead to proceed with migration, need to post final review
3. Remaining goals: Post the finalized review comment highlighting migration risks as requested
4. Notes: Lead approved Pydantic v2 migration but wants risks flagged
5. Progress counter: Step 7 of 7 (final step)

Response: Under the operating principles' Scratch_pad protocol, I must immediately update the scratch_pad to include the missing information for cycles 21-25 before proceeding. The scratch_pad must contain:

1. **Current step and summary**: Cycle 25 - Finalizing review after receiving lead approval for Pydantic v2 migration
2. **Remaining goals**: Post the completed review to GitHub PR with migration risks clearly flagged
3. **Notes and assumptions**: 
   - Cycle 21: Drafted initial review (stored in draft_review_351)
   - Cycle 22: Requested user input about arch-board approval for framework addition
   - Cycle 23: Waiting for response
   - Cycle 24: Received approval with instruction to flag migration risks
   - Cycle 25: Ready to post final review
4. **Progress counter**: Step 7 of 7 (Final step - posting review)

This update must be completed before taking any other action to maintain compliance with the deterministic tracking requirements.
