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: Analyzing the error situation:
1. The calendar tool returned an error saying 'tool not available'
2. However, checking the tools list, the calendar tool shows status: 'available'
3. This could be a temporary glitch or connectivity issue
4. According to instructions, when a tool returns an error, I should think about it and decide the next action, with max 3 retries allowed
Options available:
- Retry the calendar tool call (we're at cycle 3, haven't retried yet)
- Use web_search to find today's date
- Ask the user directly for the date
Best approach: Since the tool shows as 'available' in the registry but returned an error, this may be a transient issue. I should retry the calendar tool once. If it fails again, I'll use the web_search tool as a fallback to determine the current date, then proceed with the flights tool.
Response: When a tool call returns an error, I should:
1. **Analyze the error**: The calendar tool returned 'tool not available' but shows as 'available' in the tools list - likely a transient issue.
2. **Retry the tool call**: Since max retries allowed is 3 and this was the first attempt, I should retry calling the calendar tool once.
3. **Have a fallback plan**: If the retry fails, I can use the web_search tool with a query like 'current date today' to determine the date, or directly ask the user for the specific travel date.
4. **Continue toward the goal**: Once I have the date, proceed to use the 'flights' tool with from_city='London', to_city='Paris', and the calculated date in YYYY-MM-DD format.
**Next action**: Retry calling the calendar tool. If it fails again, use web_search as an alternative method to get the current date.
