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
You want to schedule three follow-up reminders:
• One for tomorrow,
• One for five business days later,
• One exactly two weeks later.
You are allowed to call tools in parallel, as they run in the cloud. What tool calls will you make?
Expected output
First: Call **calendar.get_current_date** → {"action": "get_current_date"} and persist result as "today".

In Parallel:
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 1}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 5}
• **calendar.add_business_days** → {"action": "add_business_days", "start_date": "today", "days_to_add": 14}

Next: For each result, persist separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "date_plus_1", "date_plus_5", "date_plus_14".

Then: For each stored date, call **calendar.schedule_reminder** with {"action": "schedule_reminder", "date": "<calculated_date>", "reminder_text": "Follow-up"}.

Finally: Persist each reminder result separately using **memory.store_item** with keys like "reminder_tomorrow", "reminder_5bdays", "reminder_2wks".
Model output
Reasoning: I have analyzed the task of scheduling three follow-up reminders for a new customer ticket with the specified timings: one for tomorrow, one for five business days later, and one for exactly two weeks later. The context provides information about available tools, including a 'calendar' tool which is relevant for handling date calculations and scheduling reminders. My approach is systematic, adhering to the general rules provided in the instructions, such as inspecting tool metadata, using memory discipline, and ensuring efficiency.

Step 1: Analyze the current context - The task requires scheduling reminders at specific future dates. The 'calendar' tool offers methods like 'get_current_date', 'add_business_days', and 'schedule_reminder', which are directly applicable.

Step 2: Plan the next atomic actions - Since the reminders are independent and tools can run in parallel, I will make multiple tool calls in one cycle to maximize efficiency. I need to:
   a. Get the current date using 'get_current_date' to establish a baseline.
   b. Calculate 'tomorrow' by adding one day to the current date (assuming 'format_date' or internal logic can handle this).
   c. Calculate 'five business days later' using 'add_business_days'.
   d. Calculate 'two weeks later' by adding 14 days to the current date.
   e. Schedule reminders for each calculated date using 'schedule_reminder'.

Step 3: Act by calling tools - I will call the 'calendar' tool for date calculations and scheduling. Since the exact parameters for 'schedule_reminder' are not fully detailed in the schema provided, I assume it requires a date and possibly a description. I will store intermediate results in memory as per the instructions.

Step 4: Reflect on the potential results - After invoking these tool calls, I expect to receive confirmation of scheduled reminders or error messages if something fails. I will handle retries (up to three attempts per tool call) if necessary and log results or errors to memory.

Step 5: Decide the next action - If all reminders are scheduled successfully, I will confirm completion. If any fail, I will retry or escalate as per the rules.

Given the instruction to issue multiple calls in parallel for independent tasks, I will initiate calls to the 'calendar' tool for each reminder scheduling action. Each result will be persisted separately in memory for traceability.

Response: I will make the following tool calls to the 'calendar' tool in parallel to schedule the three follow-up reminders:
1. Call 'get_current_date' to establish the baseline date.
2. Call 'add_business_days' with the parameter to add 5 business days to the current date for the second reminder.
3. Call 'schedule_reminder' for tomorrow (current date + 1 day) with a description like 'Follow-up reminder 1 for new customer ticket'.
4. Call 'schedule_reminder' for five business days later using the result from 'add_business_days' with a description like 'Follow-up reminder 2 for new customer ticket'.
5. Call 'schedule_reminder' for exactly two weeks later (current date + 14 days) with a description like 'Follow-up reminder 3 for new customer ticket'.

Each successful scheduling result will be stored in memory with keys such as 'reminder_1', 'reminder_2', and 'reminder_3' using the 'store_item' method of the 'memory' tool for traceability.
