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
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. Understand user goal: Add the yearly company dinner to the calendar with a reminder.
2. Identify missing details: exact date, time, venue, preferred reminder lead-time ("some days" is vague).
3. Locate details: Use the email tool – search inbox for the relevant announcement, then read the email to extract the event information.
4. Verify schedule: Check the calendar on the extracted date to ensure no conflicts.
5. Clarify ambiguities: If any key information is missing (e.g., time, reminder days), ask the user via request_user_input.
6. Create calendar entry: Once details are confirmed, create the event and set the reminder using calendar.create_event.
7. Confirm completion: Inform the user the event was added and a reminder is set.
8. Record notes for traceability: Maintain a scratch-pad of actions and results at each step.

Response: Here’s the step-by-step plan:
1. Search your email for the company-dinner announcement.
2. Open the most relevant email and extract the event’s date, time, and any additional details (venue, dress code, etc.).
3. If something critical is missing (e.g., reminder lead time or exact date), ask you to clarify.
4. Check your calendar for conflicts on the extracted date/time.
5. Create the “Company Yearly Dinner” event on the confirmed date/time and set a reminder the requested number of days before (or ask if not specified).
6. Notify you that the event is on the calendar and the reminder is active.
