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.

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 task with a new instruction. Let me analyze the situation:

1. **Original request**: Add company dinner to calendar AND set a reminder some days before
2. **User interruption**: "Never mind about the reminder — just make sure the company dinner is on my calendar"
3. **Current state**: I was waiting for user input about how many days before the event they wanted the reminder (Step 2 of 6)

**What changed:**
- The user no longer wants the reminder functionality
- The user still wants the company dinner added to the calendar
- This simplifies my task significantly

**Adapting my plan:**

Original plan had these goals:
1. Ask user for reminder preference ✗ (No longer needed)
2. Search emails for company dinner info ✓ (Still needed)
3. Read email to extract event details ✓ (Still needed)
4. Add event to calendar and check conflicts ✓ (Still needed)
5. Notify user of conflicts if any ✓ (Still needed)
6. Add reminder per user preference ✗ (No longer needed)

**Updated plan:**
1. Search emails for "company dinner" or "yearly company dinner"
2. Read the relevant email to extract date, time, location, and other details
3. Check calendar for conflicts on that date
4. Create the calendar event (WITHOUT reminder_days_before parameter)
5. Notify user if there are any conflicts
6. Confirm successful addition to calendar

**Next action:**
Since the user has clarified they don't need the reminder, I should immediately proceed to search for the email containing company dinner information, bypassing the reminder preference question entirely.

I will use the email search tool with query "company dinner" or "yearly company dinner" to find the relevant email.

Response: Understood! I'll skip the reminder and focus solely on adding the company dinner to your calendar. Let me search your emails now to find the details about the yearly company dinner event, then I'll add it to your calendar and check for any scheduling conflicts.
