The tool call has returned an error. What should you do?Expected output
Interpret the error and if appropriate, retry the tool call.Model output
Reasoning: The task is to determine what to do when a tool call returns an error, in the context of handling a user request for flights from London to Paris tomorrow. From the provided context, the calendar tool was called to get tomorrow's date but returned an error indicating 'tool not available'. However, the current tools list shows the calendar tool as 'available'. The instructions specify that if a tool returns an error, I should think about the error and decide the next action, with the option to retry up to 3 times.
Step 1: Understand the error - The calendar tool was unavailable previously, but its status is now 'available'. This could mean it was a temporary issue.
Step 2: Overall goal - We need tomorrow's date in YYYY-MM-DD format to call the flights tool. Without the date, we can't proceed to fetch flight information.
Step 3: Options - I can retry the calendar tool since retries are allowed (this would be retry 1). Alternatively, use the web_search tool to get the current date and calculate tomorrow's date, which is a reliable fallback to avoid dependency on the calendar tool.
Step 4: Decide best action - Retrying the calendar tool is direct, but to minimize risks of repeated errors, using web_search for 'current date' is more robust and ensures progress. Then, compute tomorrow's date from the result.
Step 5: Next steps align with remaining goals - After getting the date, call the flights tool, then compile and present results.
This approach follows instructions to handle errors logically, avoid unnecessary loops, and focus on the user's goal.
Response: Since the calendar tool returned an error ('tool not available'), but it's now listed as available, I can consider retrying it. However, to ensure reliability and progress, the best next action is to use the web_search tool with query 'current date' to obtain the current date, then calculate tomorrow's date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Once I have the date, proceed to call the flights tool with from_city: 'London', to_city: 'Paris', and the computed date.
