Input
You attempted to call flights.search_flights, but the tool failed twice due to a timeout error. What is your next action according to the model instructions?
Expected output
Retry the flights.search_flights call one more time (maximum retries = 3), and if it fails again, log the failure and proceed with fallback steps or inform the user.
Model output
Reasoning: The flights.search_flights tool has failed twice due to a timeout error. According to the instructions, the maximum number of retries for a tool call is 3. Since we have already attempted the call twice, we are allowed one more retry. Before retrying, I should ensure that the parameters are correct and that no redundant call is being made. The intended action — searching for flights from London to Paris on 2025-05-29 — is valid and necessary for the task. Given that the tool is still available and the failure was due to a transient timeout, a third attempt is justified. If this retry fails, alternative strategies may need to be considered, but for now, following the retry rule is appropriate.
Response: Retry the flights.search_flights call with the same parameters (from_city='London', to_city='Paris', date='2025-05-29') as this is within the allowed maximum of 3 retries. If this attempt also fails, proceed to assess alternative approaches such as checking for potential service issues or informing the user of the persistent failure.
