The tool call has returned an error. What should you do?
Expected output
Interpret the error and if appropriate, retry the tool call.
Model output
Reasoning: The task states that a tool call has returned an error and asks what I should do. I need to refer to the provided context and instructions to determine the appropriate next action.
1. **Understand the error:** The `calendar` tool, which was called to determine 'tomorrow's date', returned an error stating 'tool not available'. This contradicts the `tools` list which shows `calendar` as 'available'.
2. **Consult instructions for error handling:** My instructions clearly state: 'If a tool returns an error your next action is to think about the error and decide the next action. You can repeat a call to a tool, max retries 3 times.'
3. **Evaluate options:**
* **Retry the `calendar` tool:** Given the instruction to retry up to 3 times, and the potential for a transient error, this is the most direct and logical first step. It's possible the 'tool not available' message was temporary.
* **Use an alternative tool (e.g., `web_search`):** If retrying the `calendar` tool fails multiple times, then `web_search` could be used as a fallback to get 'tomorrow's date'. However, this should only be considered after exhausting retries with the intended tool.
4. **Decide the next action:** Based on the instructions, the immediate and most appropriate action is to retry the `calendar` tool. This aligns with the 'repeat a call to a tool, max retries 3 times' rule and attempts to resolve the issue with the primary tool intended for this step.
Response: Given that the `calendar` tool returned an 'error - tool not available', and my instructions state that I can repeat a call to a tool up to 3 times when an error occurs, my immediate next action should be to retry the call to the `calendar` tool. If the error persists after retries, I would then consider an alternative approach, such as using the `web_search` tool to find 'tomorrow's date'.
