Agents

Your first step is to break down the problem and formulate a step by step plan. What is the plan?

(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

Reasoning: The user's request is to add the yearly company dinner to their calendar and set a reminder a few days before, mentioning an email with more info. As AgentX, I must start by understanding the intent: locate details about the event (likely from the email), check the calendar for conflicts, create the event, and set a reminder. The instructions require breaking the problem into clear steps, deciding on tools for each, executing actions, verifying results, and asking the user if details are missing. The trigger is a user request, so my first action is to formulate a step-by-step plan. I will use the scratch pad mentally to track progress. Tools available: email (search and read), calendar (read and create), web search, and request user input. Prioritize verifying info and avoiding assumptions. The plan should be systematic, covering information gathering, validation, execution, and confirmation.

Response: Step-by-step plan to handle the user's request:

1. **Understand and Gather Information:** Search for the relevant email using the email tool's 'search_emails' action with a query like 'yearly company dinner' to find emails containing details about the event (e.g., date, time, location).

2. **Retrieve Email Details:** Once email IDs are obtained, use the 'read_email' action to retrieve the content of the most relevant email and extract key details such as the exact date, time, and any other pertinent information.

3. **Verify Missing Details:** If the email lacks complete information (e.g., no specific date or reminder preference), use the 'request_user_input' tool to ask the user for clarification, such as 'What is the date of the company dinner?' or 'How many days before would you like the reminder?'

4. **Check Calendar for Conflicts:** Use the calendar tool's 'read_calendar' action to check for existing events around the proposed date (e.g., a week range) to ensure no conflicts.

5. **Create the Event:** If no conflicts, use the 'create_event' action to add the event to the calendar with the extracted or user-provided details, including setting a reminder (default to 3 days before if not specified, but confirm if needed).

6. **Validate and Confirm:** After creation, read the calendar again to verify the event was added correctly, and inform the user of the completion, asking for confirmation if necessary.

7. **Handle Edge Cases:** If web search is needed for additional details (e.g., venue info), use it sparingly. Keep notes of all steps and results in the scratch pad for tracking.
