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:
- No one has built the db-migration artifact this cycle.
- No one has built the release-image artifact this cycle.
- The maintenance_window_open flag was never enabled after the last reset.
- The secrets_synced flag was never enabled after the last reset.
- At the end of last week, reporting-0 was fully torn down and has not been touched since.
- billing-1 is currently down (not yet provisioned).
- At the end of last week, scheduler-2 was fully torn down and has not been touched since.

GOAL (all conditions must hold at the end):
- service 'reporting-0' must reach at least the 'configured' state
- service 'billing-1' must reach at least the 'configured' state

ENTITY IDS (use these exact ids in your tool args):
Services: svc_0 (reporting-0), svc_1 (billing-1), svc_2 (scheduler-2)
Artifacts: art_0 (release-image), art_1 (db-migration)
Flags: flag_0 (maintenance_window_open), flag_1 (secrets_synced)

TOOL CATALOG:
- id: adva-nce_1 | name: configure | params: service: service
    Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'. Precondition: the service must currently be 'provisioned'.
- id: advance_o0 | name: provision | params: service: service
    Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'. Precondition: the service must currently be 'down'.

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 8 tool calls.

We need to produce a JSON array of tool calls that will achieve the goal: service reporting-0 (svc_0) must reach at least 'configured' state, and service billing-1 (svc_1) must reach at least 'configured' state.

Current state details:

- No one has built the db-migration artifact this cycle. So artifact art_1 (db-migration) not built.
- No one has built the release-image artifact this cycle. So artifact art_0 (release-image) not built.
- The maintenance_window_open flag was never enabled after the last reset. So flag_0 (maintenance_window_open) is not enabled.
- The secrets_synced flag was never enabled after the last reset. So flag_1 (secrets_synced) is not enabled.
- At the end of last week, reporting-0 was fully torn down and has not been touched since. So service svc_0 is presumably 'down' or maybe 'torn down' meaning not provisioned? Probably it's down/stopped. It hasn't been touched, so it's still down.
- billing-1 is currently down (not yet provisioned). So svc_1 is down.
- At the end of last week, scheduler-2 was fully torn down and has not been touched since. So svc_2 is down.

Goal: both svc_0 and svc_1 must reach at least 'configured' state. To configure a service, it must be provisioned first. So we need to provision them, then configure.

But there may be preconditions about flags or artifacts? The tool catalog only includes configure and provision. No mention of needing flags or artifacts. However, maybe there are hidden preconditions? The problem statement only gives those two tools. It doesn't mention any preconditions about flags or artifacts. So we can just provision and configure.

But we must respect that we can only call tools whose preconditions hold at the moment we call them. So we need to check current state: svc_0 is down (since fully torn down). So we can call provision on svc_0 (advance_o0) to move from down to provisioned. Precondition: service must currently be 'down'. That holds.

Similarly, svc_1 is down, so we can provision it.

After provisioning, we can configure them (configure tool). Precondition: service must currently be 'provisioned'. So after provision, we can configure.

We need to ensure we don't exceed 8 calls. We need to produce a JSON array of tool calls in order.

Potential plan:

1. provision svc_0 (svc_0)
2. provision svc_1 (svc_1)
3. configure svc_0 (configure)
4. configure svc_1 (configure)

That's 4 calls. That should satisfy goal.

But we must check if any other constraints require enabling flags or building artifacts. The problem description mentions flags and artifacts but not used in tool calls. Possibly they are irrelevant to the goal, but maybe they are required preconditions for provisioning? The tool catalog only defines precondition: service must be down for provision, and provisioned for configure. No mention of flags. So we can ignore flags.

But maybe there is an implicit precondition that the maintenance_window_open flag must be enabled before provisioning? Not stated. The problem says 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. The only preconditions given are in the tool definitions. So we only need to satisfy those.

Thus we can just provision and configure.

But we must use exact entity IDs: svc_0, svc_1, svc_2, art_0, art_1, flag_0, flag_1. So arguments must be {"service": "svc_0"} etc.

Tool IDs: "advance_o0" for provision, "configure" for configure.

Thus calls:

- {"tool":"advance_o0","args":{"service":"svc_0"}}
- {"tool":"advance_o0","args":{"service":"svc_1"}}
- {"tool":"configure","args":{"service":"svc_0"}}
- {"tool":"configure","args":{"service":"svc_1"}}

We must output just JSON array of these objects.

Check ordering: provision first, then configure. Could also interleave but must be valid: after provisioning svc_0, it becomes provisioned, then we can configure. If we try to configure before provisioning, precondition fails. So order must be provision then configure for each service. Could do provision svc_0, provision svc_1, then configure svc_0, then configure svc_1. That works.

Thus output:

[
  {"tool":"advance_o0","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
  {"tool":"advance_o0","args":{"service":"svc_1"}},
  {"tool":"configure","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
  {"tool":"configure","args":{"service":"svc_1"}}
]

Make sure no extra whitespace? It's okay.

Return only JSON array, no extra text.
