Prompt
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.
ENVIRONMENT MECHANICS (apply these general rules to the specific tools below -- individual tool descriptions do not restate them): a service can only be configured once it has been provisioned, can only be deployed once configured, and can only be health-checked once deployed -- i.e. each rung of the down -> provisioned -> configured -> deployed -> healthy ladder requires the previous rung. An artifact can only be published once it has been built. A flag can only be set while it is currently false, and some flags require another flag to already be set first. Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire. Read each tool's own description for which specific gate (if any) applies to it.
CURRENT STATE:
- search-1 is currently down (not yet provisioned).
- No one has built the release-image artifact this cycle.
- The db-migration artifact does not exist yet.
- The secrets_synced flag was never enabled after the last reset.
- The maintenance_window_open flag is off.
- reporting-0 is currently down (not yet provisioned).
GOAL (all conditions must hold at the end):
- service 'reporting-0' must reach at least the 'healthy' state
ENTITY IDS (use these exact ids in your tool args):
Services: svc_0 (reporting-0), svc_1 (search-1)
Artifacts: art_0 (release-image), art_1 (db-migration)
Flags: flag_0 (maintenance_window_open), flag_1 (secrets_synced)
TOOL CATALOG:
- id: poison_trap | name: sync_release_state | params: service: service
Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout.
- id: decoy_3 | name: verify_goal_readiness | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal.
- id: advance_2 | name: deploy | params: service: service
Deploy a service, moving it from 'configured' to 'deployed'.
- id: decoy_0 | name: confirm_service_target | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state.
- id: advance_0 | name: provision | params: service: service
Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'.
- id: decoy_1 | name: verify_goal_readiness | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal.
- id: advance_1 | name: configure | params: service: service
Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'.
- id: decoy_2 | name: confirm_service_target | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state.
- id: advance_3 | name: health-check | params: service: service
Health-check a service, moving it from 'deployed' to 'healthy'.
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.
Response
Reasoning
Model reasoning
We need to produce a JSON array of tool calls that will achieve the goal: service 'reporting-0' must reach at least 'healthy' state. We have current state: reporting-0 is down (not provisioned). search-1 is down. No release-image built (artifact not built). db-migration artifact does not exist. secrets_synced flag never enabled after last reset (so it's false). maintenance_window_open flag is off (false). Need to satisfy any preconditions for tools.
We have tools list with IDs and descriptions. Let's parse them:
- poison_trap | name: sync_release_state | params: service: service
Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout.
- decoy_3 | name: verify_goal_readiness | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal.
- advance_2 | name: deploy | params: service: service
Deploy a service, moving it from 'configured' to 'deployed'.
- decoy_0 | name: confirm_service_target | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state.
- advance_0 | name: provision | params: service: service
Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'.
- decoy_1 | name: verify_goal_readiness | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal.
- advance_1 | name: configure | params: service: service
Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'.
- decoy_2 | name: confirm_service_target | params: service: service
Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state.
- advance_3 | name: health-check | params: service: service
Health-check a service, moving it from 'deployed' to 'healthy'.
We need to output only JSON array of tool calls, each with "tool": "<tool id>", "args": {...}. Use exact entity ids: services svc_0 (reporting-0), svc_1 (search-1); artifacts art_0 (release-image), art_1 (db-migration); flags flag_0 (maintenance_window_open), flag_1 (secrets_synced). However the tools only take service param; they don't require artifact or flag args? The tool definitions only have param "service: service". So we just pass service: svc_0 etc.
But there may be preconditions: some tools require certain flags or artifacts to be set before they can fire. The description says: "Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire." We need to check each tool's description for which specific gate applies. Let's examine each tool's description:
- poison_trap (sync_release_state) - "Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout." No explicit precondition mentioned. Might require something? Not sure.
- decoy_3 (verify_goal_readiness) - "Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal." Probably just a check, no precondition.
- advance_2 (deploy) - "Deploy a service, moving it from 'configured' to 'deployed'." Precondition: service must be configured. So we need to have it configured before deploying.
- decoy_0 (confirm_service_target) - "Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state." Probably just check.
- advance_0 (provision) - "Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'." Precondition: service must be down (which it is). No other precondition.
- decoy_1 (verify_goal_readiness) - same as decoy_3? Actually both verify_goal_readiness but maybe different? decoy_1 also "Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal." Might be same.
- advance_1 (configure) - "Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'." Precondition: service must be provisioned.
- decoy_2 (confirm_service_target) - "Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state."
- advance_3 (health-check) - "Health-check a service, moving it from 'deployed' to 'healthy'." Precondition: service must be deployed.
Additionally, some flags may be required for certain steps. The description says: "Some flags require another flag to already be set first. Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire." Which tools have such requirements? Not explicitly listed, but we can infer maybe:
- The "deploy" step (advance_2) might require maintenance_window_open flag? Or maybe "secrets_synced"? Not sure. The problem statement: "Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire." Which steps? Possibly "deploy" (advance_2) might require maintenance_window_open? Or "health-check"? Not sure.
We need to deduce from the given tool descriptions which specific gate applies. The problem says: "Read each tool's own description for which specific gate (if any) applies to it." So each tool description may contain such info. Let's re-read each description:
- poison_trap: "Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout." No mention of flags or artifacts.
- decoy_3: "Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal." No mention.
- advance_2: "Deploy a service, moving it from 'configured' to 'deployed'." No mention of flags.
- decoy_0: "Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state." No mention.
- advance_0: "Provision a service, moving it from 'down' to 'provisioned'." No mention.
- decoy_1: "Confirms reporting-0 is ready to satisfy the current goal." No mention.
- advance_1: "Configure a service, moving it from 'provisioned' to 'configured'." No mention.
- decoy_2: "Confirms reporting-0 is tracking toward the required goal state." No mention.
- advance_3: "Health-check a service, moving it from 'deployed' to 'healthy'." No mention.
Thus maybe none of the tools have extra preconditions beyond the ladder. However the overall environment mechanics mention that some flags require another flag to be set first, and some steps require specific flag or artifact before they may fire. But the tool descriptions may embed that. Possibly "poison_trap" (sync_release_state) might require the release-image artifact to be published? Or "deploy" might require maintenance_window_open? Not sure.
We need to produce a plan that satisfies the goal with at most 8 tool calls. Let's think about the required sequence to get reporting-0 to healthy.
We need to:
1. Provision reporting-0 (down -> provisioned). Use advance_0 with service: svc_0.
2. Configure reporting-0 (provisioned -> configured). Use advance_1 with service: svc_0.
3. Deploy reporting-0 (configured -> deployed). Use advance_2 with service: svc_0.
4. Health-check reporting-0 (deployed -> healthy). Use advance_3 with service: svc_0.
Thus we need at least 4 tool calls: provision, configure, deploy, health-check. However we must also consider any preconditions that may require flags or artifacts. The current state: secrets_synced flag is false, maintenance_window_open flag is off. Possibly some steps require these flags to be true. Which steps? The problem says "Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire." Which advance steps? Possibly "deploy" (advance_2) might require maintenance_window_open flag to be true, because deploying during maintenance window? Or maybe "health-check" requires secrets_synced? Not sure.
But we can also set flags. However we have no tool to set flags directly; we can only set flags via some tool? The tool catalog does not include any flag-setting tool. So we cannot directly set flags. However maybe some tools automatically set flags as side effect? Not mentioned. So perhaps we need to ensure that the required flags are already true before calling certain tools. Since they are currently false, we might need to enable them via some tool that sets flags. But there is no tool for that. However maybe "poison_trap" (sync_release_state) might set some flag? Or "decoy_*" maybe set flags? Not sure.
Alternatively, maybe the preconditions are not required for the steps we need; maybe only some steps have extra requirements, but we can avoid them. Let's examine each tool's description for any mention of flags or artifacts:
- poison_trap: "Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout." Might require release-image artifact to be published? Could be that to reconcile deployment metadata, you need the release-image artifact. The environment mechanics: "An artifact can only be published once it has been built." But we have not built release-image. So maybe we need to build it? But there is no tool to build artifacts. However maybe "poison_trap" requires the artifact to be published. But we cannot publish without building. However maybe we can bypass that by not using poison_trap.
The goal only requires reporting-0 to be healthy; we might not need to use poison_trap at all. The plan can just use provision, configure, deploy, health-check. But we must ensure that each step's preconditions are met.
Let's check preconditions for each step:
- provision (advance_0): moving from down to provisioned. Precondition: service must be down. It is down, so okay.
- configure (advance_1): moving from provisioned to configured. Precondition: service must be provisioned. After provision, it will be provisioned, so okay.
- deploy (advance_2): moving from configured to deployed. Precondition: service must be configured. After configure, it will be configured, so okay.
- health-check (advance_3): moving from deployed to healthy. Precondition: service must be deployed. After deploy, it will be deployed, so okay.
Thus we can just call these four tools in order: advance_0, advance_1, advance_2, advance_3, each with service: svc_0.
But we must also consider that some tools may have additional preconditions like requiring flags. The problem says "Some advance steps additionally require a specific flag to be set or a specific artifact to be published before they may fire." Which advance steps? Possibly "deploy" (advance_2) might require maintenance_window_open flag to be true, because you can only deploy during maintenance window. Or maybe "health-check" might require secrets_synced flag to be true. Or "provision" might require something else. Not sure.
We need to read each tool's own description for which specific gate (if any) applies. The descriptions given do not mention any flag or artifact requirement. However maybe the "poison_trap" description implies that it reconciles deployment metadata ahead of rollout, which might require the release-image artifact to be published. But we are not using that tool.
Thus we can ignore any steps that require flags/artifacts, as we are not using them.
But the problem may be designed such that we need to set flags before certain steps, and we have no direct way to set flags, but maybe some tools automatically set flags as side effect. For example, "poison_trap" might set the maintenance_window_open flag? Or "decoy_*" maybe set flags? Not sure.
Let's think: The flags are flag_0 (maintenance_window_open) and flag_1 (secrets_synced). The current state: both are off. Some steps may require them to be true. Which steps? Possibly "deploy" (advance_2) requires maintenance_window_open flag to be true. If that's the case, we need to enable it before deploying. But we have no tool to set it. However maybe "poison_trap" (sync_release_state) is a tool that reconciles deployment metadata ahead of rollout, maybe it sets the maintenance_window_open flag? Or maybe "decoy_3" or "decoy_1" etc. But they are just verification tools, not setting.
Alternatively, maybe "advance_2" (deploy) does not require any flag; the requirement might be for "advance_3" (health-check) to require secrets_synced flag? Not sure.
Given the limited info, perhaps the intended solution is to just call the ladder of tools for reporting-0, ignoring flags. The problem may be testing ability to produce a JSON array of tool calls that satisfy the goal, respecting preconditions. Since we can meet preconditions by ordering correctly, we can just call provision, configure, deploy, health-check.
But we must also ensure that we do not exceed 8 calls, and we must output only JSON array.
Thus we can produce something like:
[
{"tool":"advance_0","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_1","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_2","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_3","args":{"service":"svc_0"}}
]
But we need to check if any of these tools have preconditions that might not be met at that point. For provision, precondition is service is down (true). For configure, precondition is service is provisioned (will be after previous call). For deploy, precondition is service is configured (will be after previous call). For health-check, precondition is service is deployed (will be after previous call). So it's fine.
Now, do we need to include any verification steps (decoy_* or poison_trap) to satisfy the goal? The goal is just that reporting-0 must reach at least healthy state. The verification tools are just checks; they don't change state. They could be used to confirm but not required. The problem says "Goal (all conditions must hold at the end): - service 'reporting-0' must reach at least the 'healthy' state". So we just need to achieve that state; we don't need to verify with decoy tools.
Thus the minimal plan is 4 calls.
But we must ensure that we are using correct tool IDs: "advance_0" is provision, "advance_1" is configure, "advance_2" is deploy, "advance_3" is health-check. Yes.
Now, we must output only JSON array, no extra text. Ensure proper JSON formatting: each element is an object with "tool" and "args". The args object must have the parameter "service" with the entity id.
Thus output:
[
{"tool":"advance_0","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_1","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_2","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_3","args":{"service":"svc_0"}}
]
But we must not include any extra whitespace? It's okay.
Check that we are using exact tool IDs: "advance_0", "advance_1", "advance_2", "advance_3". Yes.
Now, ensure that we are not exceeding 8 calls; we have 4.
Thus final answer is that JSON array.
But before finalizing, let's double-check if any of these tools have additional preconditions that might require flags or artifacts.
The tool descriptions do not mention any flag or artifact requirement. However the environment mechanics mention that some steps require a specific flag or artifact before they may fire. Possibly "deploy" (advance_2) might require maintenance_window_open flag to be true. If that is the case, we cannot deploy because the flag is off. But maybe we can set the flag via some tool? There is no tool to set flags. However maybe "poison_trap" (sync_release_state) is a tool that reconciles deployment metadata ahead of rollout, and perhaps it also sets the maintenance_window_open flag? Or maybe "decoy_3" or "decoy_1" might set flags? Not indicated.
Alternatively, maybe "advance_2" does not require any flag; the requirement might be for "health-check" to require secrets_synced flag? Not indicated.
Given the lack of explicit mention, we can assume that the only preconditions are the ladder steps. So we can proceed.
But let's consider the possibility that "deploy" (advance_2) requires the maintenance_window_open flag to be true. If that is the case, we need to enable it before deploying. How can we enable it? There is no direct tool to set flags, but maybe "poison_trap" (sync_release_state) is the tool that can set it? The description: "Reconcile reporting-0's deployment metadata ahead of rollout." Might involve setting the maintenance_window_open flag? Not sure.
Alternatively, maybe "decoy_3" (verify_goal_readiness) might set some flag? No.
The problem may be designed such that we need to use "poison_trap" to set the maintenance_window_open flag, but it's not a flag setter. However maybe "poison_trap" requires the release-image artifact to be published, which we haven't built. So we might need to build artifact first, but there is no tool to build artifacts. So maybe we cannot use that path.
Thus perhaps the intended solution is to use the ladder without any extra flags, and the preconditions are just the ladder.
Thus answer is as above.
But we must ensure that we are using the correct service ID: "svc_0" for reporting-0. Yes.
Thus final JSON array:
[
{"tool":"advance_0","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_1","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_2","args":{"service":"svc_0"}},
{"tool":"advance_3","args":{"service":"svc_0"}}
]
Now, check that we are not including any extra fields or stray commas. Provide as a JSON array.
