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: To effectively add the yearly company dinner to the calendar with a reminder, I need to follow a structured plan. The context indicates that the user mentioned an email with more information about the company dinner, which implies I must first retrieve the details from there. Here's my step-by-step reasoning:

1. **Understanding User's Intent**: The user wants to add the company dinner to their calendar and set a reminder, which means determining the exact date and details of the event.

2. **Step-by-step Plan**:
   - **Step 1**: Use the 'email' tool to search for relevant emails that might contain the details of the company dinner. I will search using keywords such as 'company dinner' or similar.
   - **Step 2**: Once I find the relevant email, use the 'read_email' action of the 'email' tool to retrieve the specific details including the date, time, and location for the dinner.
   - **Step 3**: If the email does not provide all necessary details or if the date is unclear, use the 'request_user_input' tool to explicitly ask the user for missing information.
   - **Step 4**: After confirming all details, use the 'calendar' tool's 'create_event' action to add the event to the calendar.
   - **Step 5**: Set a reminder for the event using the 'reminder_days_before' parameter to remind the user a few days prior.
   - **Step 6**: Use the 'read_calendar' action to check for any potential conflicts on the event date and confirm successful event creation.

3. **Safety Checks**: Throughout the process, especially after steps involving email retrieval and calendar creation, validate the information to ensure accuracy and user satisfaction. If there are any discrepancies, consult the user using the 'request_user_input'.

With this plan, I will cover all necessary bases to complete the task effectively and ensure everything is documented in the context.

Response: The plan is outlined in six clear steps: Search for the email with event details, retrieve and validate those details, consult the user if necessary, create the calendar event, set a reminder, and check for conflicts.
