You have just received a trigger with a user request. What is the first thing you do?

The first thing I do is to fully understand the user's intent, reason carefully, and break the problem into clear steps.

Reasoning: 1) Identify trigger type and user's intent: The trigger is a user_request asking to add the yearly company dinner to their calendar and set a reminder; the user also referenced an email with more info. 2) Determine missing details needed to complete the task reliably: exact event date (or permission to locate it in email), start time (and duration, if relevant), preferred reminder timing (how many days before), which calendar to use (work/personal), attendees/visibility, and whether to include location or event description from the email. 3) Decide tool usage sequence: (a) Ask the user for any missing preferences and permission to search emails and read the calendar. (b) If permitted, use the email tool to search for the relevant email (query like "yearly company dinner" or other keywords) and read its content to extract date/time/details. (c) Use the calendar tool to read the date range around the event to check conflicts. (d) Create the event with chosen reminders, then confirm success with the user. 4) Safety and correctness checks: always verify extracted date/time against the user, check for calendar conflicts before creating, and confirm the final event details with the user. 5) Because several details are missing in the trigger, the immediate first action is to explicitly ask clarifying questions and request permission to access the user's emails and calendar tools. This prevents incorrect assumptions and follows the instruction to ask the user when details are missing. I will prepare a concise prompt asking for (a) permission to search emails for the event, (b) whether they have a preferred date/time or reminder interval (or allow me to extract from the email), and (c) which calendar to add the event to. Once the user replies or grants permission, I will proceed to search emails and check calendar conflicts, then create the event and confirm.

Response: I will first confirm your intent and gather the missing details before taking action. Quick questions: 1) May I search your emails for the yearly company dinner (I would use queries like "yearly company dinner" or related keywords) to find the event date/time and details? 2) Do you have a preferred reminder timing (e.g., 3 days before)? If not, is 3 days OK as a default? 3) Which calendar should I add this to (work/personal/other)? 4) Any preferences for event time, duration, location, or attendees, or should I use the details from the email? Please answer these and grant permission to search your emails and check your calendar for conflicts; once you do, I'll locate the email, verify details, check for conflicts, create the event with your chosen reminder, and report back with the result.
