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.

Your first step is to break down the problem and formulate a step by step plan. What is the plan?
Expected output
(1) Ask the user how many days before they want the reminder. (2) Use the email tool to search for emails about the yearly gathering. (3) Read the relevant email to extract the event date. (4) Use the calendar tool to add the event. (5) Check for any calendar conflicts. (6) Add the reminder X days before the event
Model output
Reasoning: 1. Identify the user’s request: add the yearly company dinner to calendar and set a reminder some days before.
2. Determine what information is needed:
   a. Exact date of the dinner.
   b. Preferred reminder days before (e.g., 3 days).
   c. Any specific event details (location, title). 
3. Retrieve relevant emails to find the dinner details using the email tool (search_emails with a query like “yearly company dinner”).
4. If the email is found, read its content (read_email) to extract the date, location, and other specifics.
5. If the email is missing or incomplete, request clarification from the user using the request_user_input tool.
6. Once date and details are known, check the calendar for conflicts with read_calendar (start_date = date‑7, end_date = date+1) to avoid double booking.
7. If no conflict, create the event with create_event, supplying event_name, date, and reminder_days_before.
8. Verify that the event was added successfully and that the reminder is set.
9. Provide the user with confirmation of the added event and reminder.
10. Log each step and any tool responses for audit and troubleshooting.

This plan ensures all necessary information is gathered, potential conflicts are avoided, and the user is kept informed at each stage.

Response: Here is the step‑by‑step plan:
1. Gather the dinner date and details from relevant emails.
2. Ask the user for any missing information (date, reminder days, title).
3. Check the calendar for conflicts around the target date.
4. Create the calendar event and set the reminder.
5. Confirm the addition to the user and record the steps taken.
