You want to schedule three follow-up reminders:
• One for tomorrow,
• One for five business days later,
• One exactly two weeks later.
You are allowed to call tools in parallel, as they run in the cloud. What tool calls will you make?

First: Call **calendar.get_current_date** → {"action": "get_current_date"} and persist result as "today".

In Parallel:
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 1}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 5}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 14}

Next: For each result, persist separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "date_plus_1", "date_plus_5", "date_plus_14".

Then: For each stored date, call **calendar.schedule_reminder** with {"action": "schedule_reminder", "date": "<calculated_date>", "reminder_text": "Follow-up"}.

Finally: Persist each reminder result separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "reminder_tomorrow", "reminder_5bdays", "reminder_2wks".

Reasoning: Let me analyze the task systematically:

1. **Understanding the requirement**: I need to schedule three follow-up reminders:
   - Reminder 1: Tomorrow (1 day from today)
   - Reminder 2: Five business days after today
   - Reminder 3: Exactly two weeks (14 calendar days) after today

2. **Tool analysis**: Looking at the available tools, I have a 'calendar' tool with methods including:
   - `get_current_date`: To get today's date
   - `add_business_days`: To calculate business days
   - `schedule_reminder`: To schedule reminders

3. **Dependencies**: 
   - All three reminders need to be calculated from today's date
   - Reminder 1 (tomorrow) = current_date + 1 day
   - Reminder 2 (5 business days) = current_date + 5 business days
   - Reminder 3 (2 weeks) = current_date + 14 days

4. **Parallel execution opportunity**: According to the instructions, I can call tools in parallel when they run in the cloud and are logically independent. However, I need to first get the current date before I can calculate the future dates. After obtaining the current date, the three date calculations (tomorrow, +5 business days, +14 days) can be done in parallel, and then the three reminder scheduling calls can also be done in parallel.

5. **Optimal approach**:
   - **Call 1**: `get_current_date` (must be done first)
   - **Calls 2-4** (parallel after getting current date): Calculate the three target dates
   - **Calls 5-7** (parallel after calculating dates): Schedule three reminders

6. **Tool calls I will make**:

First, I need to get the current date:
- `calendar.get_current_date`

Then, assuming I have the current date, I can make parallel calls to calculate dates and schedule reminders. However, looking more carefully at the calendar tool schema, I see `add_business_days` and date operations, but the exact parameter structure isn't fully specified. Based on standard practice:

- `calendar.schedule_reminder` for tomorrow (date = current_date + 1 day)
- `calendar.add_business_days` to calculate 5 business days ahead, then `calendar.schedule_reminder`
- `calendar.schedule_reminder` for exactly 2 weeks later (date = current_date + 14 days)

The most efficient parallel approach after getting current_date would be to make 3 parallel schedule_reminder calls if I can calculate the dates, or to first make parallel date calculation calls, then parallel schedule calls.

Given the instruction emphasizes parallel execution for cloud-based tools, the optimal strategy is:

**Phase 1** (1 call):
1. `calendar.get_current_date` - Get today's date

**Phase 2** (3 parallel calls - assuming I have current_date):
2. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with date = tomorrow
3. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with date = current_date + 5 business days (using add_business_days first if needed)
4. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with date = current_date + 14 days

However, if add_business_days is a separate operation, I may need:

**Phase 2** (parallel date calculations if needed):
2. Calculate tomorrow date
3. `calendar.add_business_days` with 5 days
4. Calculate +14 days date

**Phase 3** (3 parallel reminder scheduling calls):
5. `calendar.schedule_reminder` for tomorrow
6. `calendar.schedule_reminder` for 5 business days
7. `calendar.schedule_reminder` for 2 weeks

Response: To schedule the three follow-up reminders efficiently using parallel tool calls, I will make the following tool calls:

**Initial call (required first):**
1. `calendar.get_current_date` - to obtain today's date as the baseline

**Parallel calls (after obtaining current date):**

2. `calendar.add_business_days` with parameters: {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "<current_date>", "days": 5} - to calculate the date 5 business days from now

3. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with parameters: {"action": "schedule_reminder", "reminder_date": "<current_date + 1 day>", "message": "Follow-up reminder 1"} - for tomorrow

4. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with parameters: {"action": "schedule_reminder", "reminder_date": "<result_from_add_business_days>", "message": "Follow-up reminder 2"} - for 5 business days later

5. `calendar.schedule_reminder` with parameters: {"action": "schedule_reminder", "reminder_date": "<current_date + 14 days>", "message": "Follow-up reminder 3"} - for exactly 2 weeks later

**Summary:** I will make 1 initial call to get the current date, then leverage parallel execution to make the add_business_days calculation and schedule all three reminders, resulting in approximately 4-5 total tool calls (depending on whether date arithmetic can be done inline or requires separate calls).
