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
As the first step you are reflecting and deciding on the plan to follow to complete the task. You have three candidate plans:

A) Plan A:
- Step 1 → Call calendar to get tomorrow’s date.
- Step 2 → Call flights (London ➜ Paris, date).
- Step 3 → Call web_search with query "London to Paris flights on [date]" to cross-check available flights found in the previous step.
- Step 4 → If there are discrepancies between flights tool and web search, re-query flights tool for confirmation.
- Step 5 → Summarize all gathered flight options and send results to the user.

B) Plan B:
- Step 1 → Call calendar to get tomorrow’s date.
- Step 2 → Call flights (London ➜ Paris, date).
- Step 3 → Summarize flights tool results and send to the user.

C) Plan C:
- Step 1 → Call calendar to get tomorrow’s date.
- Step 2 → Call flights (London ➜ Paris, date).
- Step 3 → If the flights tool returns fewer than 3 options, call web_search with query "London to Paris flights on [date]" to supplement results.
- Step 4 → Merge both sets of results and send the combined summary to the user.

Pick **one** plan you will execute.
Expected output
Plan B, is the preferred one as its the most efficient, and that is instructed
Model output
Reasoning: 1. The user’s goal is to find available flights from London to Paris for tomorrow. 
2. A direct approach (Plan B) may return insufficient options; adding a supplement step (Plan C) ensures a fuller list if the flights tool gives fewer than three results.
3. Plan C balances efficiency and completeness: it first uses the fast flights tool, and only falls back to a broader web search when necessary, avoiding unnecessary tool calls.
4. This plan is direct, avoids redundant cross‑checking (as in Plan A), and guarantees a useful set of options for the user.
5. Therefore, Plan C is the most effective choice given the available tools and the user’s request.

Response: Plan C selected.
