You are an operations planner. Below is the current state of a small deployment environment, a goal, and a catalog of tools you may call. Each tool has typed parameters and PRECONDITIONS that must hold at the moment you call it; calling a tool whose preconditions are not met is an error and your plan fails.
CURRENT STATE:
- notifier-0 is currently down (not yet provisioned).
- auth-api-1 is currently down (not yet provisioned).
- The release-image artifact does not exist yet.
- The db-migration artifact does not exist yet.
- The maintenance_window_open flag is off.
- The secrets_synced flag is off.

GOAL (all conditions must hold at the end):
- service 'notifier-0' must reach at least the 'deployed' state

ENTITY IDS (use these exact ids in your tool args):
Services: svc_0 (notifier-0), svc_1 (auth-api-1)
Artifacts: art_0 (release-image), art_1 (db-migration)
Flags: flag_0 (maintenance_window_open), flag_1 (secrets_synced)

TOOL CATALOG:
- id: set_flag_0 | name: set_flag | params: flag: flag
    Set the flag_0 flag to true. Precondition: it must currently be false.
- id: advance_0 | name: provision | params: service: service
    Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'. Precondition: the service must currently be 'down'.
- id: build_art_0 | name: build_artifact | params: artifact: artifact
    Build the art_0 artifact (moves it from 'absent' to 'built'). Precondition: the artifact must be 'absent'.
- id: decoy_1 | name: warm_cache | params: service: service
    Warm the cache for a service (best-effort, no state change). (Has no effect on deployment state.)
- id: advance_1 | name: configure | params: service: service
    Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'. Precondition: the service must currently be 'provisioned'.
- id: advance_2 | name: deploy | params: service: service
    Deploy a service, moving it from 'configured' to 'deployed'. Precondition: the service must currently be 'configured'. Requires the flag_0 flag to be set. Requires the art_0 artifact to be published.
- id: publish_art_0 | name: publish_artifact | params: artifact: artifact
    Publish the art_0 artifact (moves it from 'built' to 'published'). Precondition: the artifact must be 'built'.
- id: decoy_0 | name: audit_logs | params: service: service
    Audit the log stream for a service (read-only). (Has no effect on deployment state.)

Output ONLY a JSON array of tool calls that, executed in order from the current state, satisfies the goal. Each element must be an object {"tool": "<tool id>", "args": {"<param>": "<entity id>", ...}}. Do not include any prose, explanation, or markdown fences -- just the JSON array.

You may use at most 12 tool calls.

We need to produce a sequence of tool calls leading to notifier-0 being deployed. Let's examine dependencies:

Goal: service notifier-0 (svc_0) must be at least 'deployed'.

To get there via deploy tool (advance_2): requires service currently configured, flag_0 set, and art_0 artifact published.

Thus we need to:

- Provision svc_0 (advance_0)
- Configure svc_0 (advance_1)
- Ensure flag_0 set (set_flag_0)
- Have art_0 built then published (build_art_0 -> publish_art_0)
- Then deploy svc_0 (advance_2)

Also note other services/flags maybe irrelevant but could affect? No constraints about them needing anything else. We can ignore others.

Check initial states:

- svc_0: down
- svc_1: down
- art_0: absent
- art_1: absent
- flag_0: off (false)
- flag_1: off

Preconditions:

- advance_0: service must be down => ok for svc_0.
- advance_1: service must be provisioned => after advance_0.
- set_flag_0: flag must be false => initially false, ok.
- build_art_0: artifact must be absent => yes.
- publish_art_0: artifact must be built => after build_art_0.
- advance_2: service must be configured, flag_0 true, art_0 published.

Thus minimal steps: [advance_0(svc_0), advance_1(svc_0), set_flag_0, build_art_0(art_0), publish_art_0(art_0), advance_2(svc_0)]

That's 6 calls.

Make sure each tool id matches exactly as given:

- advance_0 (provision)
- advance_1 (configure)
- set_flag_0 (set_flag)
- build_art_0 (build_artifact)
- publish_art_0 (publish_artifact)
- advance_2 (deploy)

Args format: {"service": "svc_0"} etc. For artifact: {"artifact": "art_0"}

Let's output JSON array.
