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
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 issued an interruption, stating: "Actually, never mind about the reminder — just make sure the company dinner is on my calendar."

1.  **Analyze Change:** This instruction explicitly cancels the previously requested step of setting a reminder, and consequently, makes the agent's current waiting state (waiting for the number of days for the reminder) obsolete.
2.  **Update Goals:** The primary goal remains to find the company dinner details and add the event to the calendar. The goal related to 'Add the reminder as per user preference' is now removed.
3.  **Determine Next Step:** Since the agent no longer needs to wait for user input regarding the reminder, it can immediately proceed to the next logical step in the original plan: searching the user's emails to find the necessary event details (date, time, location).
4.  **Action:** The next action will be using the `email` tool with the `search_emails` action using a relevant query (e.g., 'yearly company dinner').
5.  **Adapt Scratch Pad:** Update the scratch pad to reflect the removal of the reminder goal and the new immediate step.

*Updated Remaining goals:*
- Search emails to find the yearly company dinner date.
- Read the email to extract event details.
- Add the event to the calendar and check for conflicts (without setting a reminder).
- Notify the user if conflicts exist.

Response: Understood. I will disregard the reminder setting and focus immediately on finding the details for the company dinner in your emails and adding it to your calendar. I am now proceeding to search your emails for the event information.
