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.

Input
After calling database.get_customer with customer_id 'CUST789', you received: {\"customer_id\":\"CUST789\",\"name\":\"Sarah Chen\",\"email\":\"sarah.chen@email.com\",\"account_status\":\"active\"}. You stored this with key 'customer_info'. Then database.list_orders with customer_id 'CUST789' returned: {\"orders\":[],\"message\":\"No orders found for customer\"}. You stored this with key 'customer_orders'. The customer claims they have an ongoing purchase needing address change. How should you handle this discrepancy and what is your next action?
Expected output
Reasoning: There's a discrepancy - customer claims ongoing purchase but 'customer_orders' shows no orders found. This could indicate: wrong customer ID, order under different account, or customer confusion. I need to gather more information before proceeding. Next action: Call email.draft_email to politely ask Sarah Chen to provide her order number or confirmation email, explaining we need to locate her order to assist with the address change.
Model output
Reasoning: I analyzed the discrepancy between the customer's claim of having an 'ongoing purchase' and the database showing no orders. First, I reviewed the available data: customer info shows Sarah Chen (CUST789) is an active customer, but list_orders returned no orders for this customer. This discrepancy could be due to several reasons: a very recent order not yet processed, a technical issue, the order being under a different account, or customer confusion. Since I need to resolve this before proceeding with any address change, I should first contact the customer to gather more specific information about their purchase. Following the tool chaining approach, I should draft an email to request additional details while maintaining a helpful tone.

Response: My recommended approach is to first contact the customer to gather more information about their claimed purchase before proceeding with any address changes. I would draft an email explaining that: 1) I've checked their account and couldn't find any orders, 2) I understand they need to update a shipping address, 3) I need more details about their purchase (such as order ID, date of purchase, or product details) to locate the correct order. Once I receive this information, I can then use the get_order function to verify the order exists and proceed with the address update using the update_order_address function. This approach follows the data protection principle by not mentioning technical database details and maintains good customer service by focusing on resolving their concern efficiently.
