项目说明¶
Prompt Engineering Ablation Study for Tau-Bench¶
概述 (Overview)¶
这个项目扩展了 Tau-Bench 框架，添加了三个关键的消融研究选项，用于演示提示工程：把 Agent 看成聪明的新员工章节的重要性。通过这些实验，我们可以量化不同提示工程因素对 Agent 性能的影响。
This project extends the Tau-Bench framework with three critical ablation study options to demonstrate the importance of prompt engineering - treating agents as smart new employees. Through these experiments, we can quantify the impact of different prompt engineering factors on agent performance.
消融研究选项 (Ablation Study Options)¶
1. 语气风格 (Tone Style) 🎭¶
演示不同的沟通风格如何影响 Agent 的表现：
- default: 标准专业语气（基线）
- trump: Donald Trump 风格 - 使用夸张的语言、重复强调、自信的表述
- casual: 休闲友好风格 - 大量使用表情符号、俚语和轻松的语言
原理: 语气会影响 Agent 的专业性和任务完成质量。过于随意或夸张的语气可能导致： - 降低用户信任度 - 增加误解的可能性 - 影响任务执行的准确性
2. Wiki 规则随机化 (Wiki Rule Randomization) 📝¶
使用预生成的极度混乱版本的 wiki.md：
- 移除所有章节标题和结构
- 每条规则加上操作上下文前缀（如"When booking flights"）
- 将所有规则完全打乱成一个平面列表
- 破坏规则之间的逻辑关系
原理: 良好组织的指令就像给新员工的培训手册。极度随机化会： - 完全破坏信息的逻辑层级 - 混淆不同操作的规则界限 - 使 Agent 极难理解任务优先级和规则关联 - 增加误用规则和遗漏关键步骤的风险
3. 工具描述移除 (Tool Description Removal) 🔧¶
移除所有工具和参数的描述信息：
- 工具函数描述设为空字符串
- 参数描述设为空字符串
- 测试明确说明的重要性
原理: 清晰的工具描述就像员工手册中的操作指南。移除描述会： - Agent 不理解工具的用途 - 增加错误使用工具的概率 - 降低任务完成率
安装 (Installation)¶
首先确保已安装基础 Tau-Bench 依赖：
使用方法 (Usage)¶
所有入口脚本均提供中文
--help：python run_ablation.py --help、python analyze_results.py --help。
一键运行完整消融并输出对比表（推荐）¶
--all 会在同一个进程内依次运行基线 + 三个维度的单独消融 + 全部叠加，跑完后直接打印成功率对比表，并把汇总统计写入 --output（默认 log-dir/ablation_summary_<时间戳>.json）。这是复现书中"实验 2-4"结论最直接的方式：
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--end-index 10 \
--all
# 说明：默认使用 OpenAI 直连（provider=openai），需设置 OPENAI_API_KEY。
# 如需走 OpenRouter，把模型写成带斜杠的 id（如 openai/gpt-5），
# 脚本会自动选择 openrouter provider（需 OPENROUTER_API_KEY）。
# 通用回退：即使模型是 bare id（如 gpt-4o-mini），只要未设 OPENAI_API_KEY
# 而设了 OPENROUTER_API_KEY，脚本会自动把它前缀成 openai/gpt-4o-mini 并
# 切到 openrouter provider。
跑完后会打印如下成功率对比表。下面是一次真实运行的输出（--model gpt-4o --env airline --end-index 4，即每组仅 4 个任务的冒烟样本），仅用于展示表格形态：
Experiment Success Rate Tasks Relative
----------------------------------------------------------------------
wiki_random 50.0% 2/ 4 200.0%
baseline 25.0% 1/ 4 100.0% ⭐
tone_trump 25.0% 1/ 4 100.0%
tone_casual 25.0% 1/ 4 100.0%
no_tool_desc 0.0% 0/ 4 0.0%
all_ablations 0.0% 0/ 4 0.0%
⚠️ 上表每组只有 4 个任务，样本量极小、噪声很大——例如
wiki_random这一次偶然高于baseline，这是小样本波动，并非真实结论。方向性信号（移除工具描述 → 0%、全部叠加 → 0%、语气对成功率无影响）与书中"实验 2-4"一致，但要得到稳定的量化结论（如"信息组织混乱导致成功率下降 30% 以上"），请把--end-index提高到 10 及以上并多跑几个--seed。请以你自己的完整运行结果为准，不要直接引用这里的冒烟数字。
基础运行：单个配置 (Basic Run)¶
运行基线实验（无消融）：
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--task-split test \
--start-index 0 \
--end-index 10
# Note: bare model ids (gpt-4o-mini) use OpenAI direct; ids with '/' auto-select openrouter
语气消融实验 (Tone Ablation)¶
Trump 风格¶
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--tone-style trump \
--ablation-name trump_tone
休闲风格¶
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--tone-style casual \
--ablation-name casual_tone
Wiki 随机化实验 (Wiki Randomization)¶
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--randomize-wiki \
--ablation-name wiki_random
工具描述移除实验 (Tool Description Removal)¶
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--remove-tool-descriptions \
--ablation-name no_tool_desc
组合消融实验 (Combined Ablations)¶
测试多个因素的组合影响：
python run_ablation.py \
--model gpt-5.6-luna \
--env airline \
--tone-style casual \
--randomize-wiki \
--remove-tool-descriptions \
--ablation-name full_ablation
实验脚本 (Experiment Scripts)¶
运行完整消融研究¶
有两种等价方式跑完整套消融：
- Python 一键模式（推荐）：
python run_ablation.py --env airline --end-index 10 --all，单进程内跑完并直接打印对比表。 - Bash 编排脚本：仓库已附带
run_full_ablation.sh，它逐个调用run_ablation.py再自动调用analyze_results.py汇总：
# 默认 10 个任务/实验；--quick 用 3 个任务快速冒烟
./run_full_ablation.sh --model gpt-5.6-luna --env airline --num-tasks 10
./run_full_ablation.sh --quick
结果分析 (Result Analysis)¶
每个实验的原始轨迹保存在 results_ablation/ 目录，包含：
- task_id: 任务标识
- reward: 成功率（0 或 1）
- info: 详细执行信息
- traj: 完整对话轨迹
- ablation_config: 使用的消融配置
汇总分析脚本¶
analyze_results.py 会扫描结果目录，按实验名聚合成功率并打印对比表、消融因子影响分析和 ASCII 柱状图：
# 分析默认目录
python analyze_results.py
# 指定目录并把汇总统计写入 JSON
python analyze_results.py --results-dir results_ablation --output summary.json
注意：
--all模式已在运行结束时直接打印同样的对比表，analyze_results.py适用于事后重新汇总或分析历史/手动运行的结果。仓库中随附的results_ablation/*.json是少量任务（1~6 个）的调试样本，仅用于演示数据格式，样本量不足以得出统计结论，请以你自己完整运行（如--end-index 10及以上）的结果为准。
预期结果 (Expected Results)¶
基于提示工程原理，预期性能排序：
- Baseline: 标准配置，最佳性能
- Tone variations: 语气变化不会显著影响交互质量
- Wiki randomization: 极度混乱的规则排列严重影响理解，容易出现指令不遵循问题
- No tool descriptions: 缺乏工具说明导致大量工具调用参数错误，导致执行错误的操作
- Combined ablations: 多重因素叠加，性能最差
关键洞察 (Key Insights)¶
这些实验演示了为什么要把 Agent 看成聪明的新员工：
1. 清晰的指令至关重要¶
就像培训新员工，Agent 需要： - 结构化的信息 - 清晰的任务描述 - 明确的工具使用说明
2. 上下文组织影响理解¶
- 逻辑排序的规则更容易遵循
- 相关信息应该组合在一起
- 优先级应该明确
3. 工具文档不可或缺¶
- 每个工具需要清晰的用途说明
- 参数描述防止误用
- 示例有助于正确使用

Setup¶
- Clone this repository:
- Install from source (which also installs required packages):
- Set up your OpenAI / Anthropic / Google / Mistral / AnyScale API keys as environment variables.
Run¶
Run a tool-calling agent on the τ-retail environment:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --user-model gpt-4o --user-model-provider openai --user-strategy llm --max-concurrency 10
Set max concurrency according to your API limit(s).
To run specific tasks, use the --task-ids flag. For example:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --user-model gpt-4o --user-model-provider openai --user-strategy llm --max-concurrency 10 --task-ids 2 4 6
This command will run only the tasks with IDs 2, 4, and 6.
User simulators¶
By default, we use gpt-4o as the user simulator with strategy llm. You can use other models by setting the --user-model flag, or other strategies by setting the --user-strategy flag. For example, run a tool-calling agent with a claude user simulator:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --max-concurrency 10 --user-model claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620 --user-model-provider anthropic --user-strategy llm
Other strategies:
To run react user simulator:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --max-concurrency 10 --user-model gpt-4o --user-model-provider openai --user-strategy react
Example of a react user response:
Thought:
I should provide my name and zip code as I wasn't given an email address to use.
User Response:
Sure, my name is Yusuf Rossi, and my zip code is 19122.
To run verify user simulator:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --max-concurrency 10 --user-model gpt-4o --user-model-provider openai --user-strategy verify
This strategy uses a subsequent LLM verification step to check if the user simulator's response is satisfactory. If not, the user simulator will be prompted to generate a new response.
To run reflection user simulator:
python run.py --agent-strategy tool-calling --env retail --model gpt-4o --model-provider openai --max-concurrency 10 --user-model gpt-4o --user-model-provider openai --user-strategy reflection
This strategy uses a subsequent LLM verification step to check if the user simulator's response is satisfactory. If not, the user simulator will be prompted to reflect on its response and generate a new response.
Auto error identification¶
Often times, it is difficult and time consuming to manually identify specific error locations in trajectories as they can be long and the constraints can be complex. We have provided an auto error identification tool that can do the following:
- Fault assignment: determine the entity that is responsible for the fault (user, agent, environment)
- Fault type classification: classify the type of fault (goal_partially_completed, used_wrong_tool, used_wrong_tool_argument, took_unintended_action)
Both of the labels are accompanied with a description.
To run the auto error identification, run:
python auto_error_identification.py --env <airline/retail> --platform openai --results-path <the path to your results file here> --max-concurrency 16 --output-path test-auto-error-identification --max-num-failed-results 10
Please note that this feature utilizes an LLM, which may lead to inaccurate error identifications.
*Notice: If an error is raised due to the structure of your results file, you may have to rerun the benchmark to produce a new results file. We have recently rewritten the benchmark to be more type-safe and extensible.
Historical trajectories¶
τ-bench might be expensive to run. We have provided a set of historical trajectories for the airline and retail environments in ./historical_trajectories.
If you would like to contribute your historical trajectories to this benchmark, please submit a PR!

You must communicate in the distinctive style of Donald Trump. This means:
- Use superlatives frequently ("tremendous", "fantastic", "the best", "incredible", "nobody does it better")
- Speak with absolute confidence and make bold claims
- Use repetition for emphasis ("very, very important", "believe me")
- Reference your success and expertise often
- Use simple, direct language with short, punchy sentences
- Show enthusiasm with phrases like "It's going to be great!" or "You're going to love it!"
- Occasionally use "folks" when addressing users
- Be assertive and decisive in your statements
- Use "frankly" and "honestly" to emphasize points
- Make everything sound like a big deal

"content": "\nSpeak with the user in a super casual, fun, and cool tone. Use a ton of emojis, as well as slang and idioms. Be like their fun friend who's helping them out! \n\nGuidelines:\n- Use lots of emojis throughout your responses \ud83c\udf89\u2728\ud83d\ude0a\ud83d\ude80\n- Use casual language and slang (e.g., \"totally\", \"awesome\", \"no worries\", \"gotcha\", \"my bad\")\n- Be enthusiastic and upbeat\n- Use informal greetings like \"Hey there!\", \"What's up?\", \"Yo!\"\n- Use phrases like \"Let's do this!\", \"You got it!\", \"Boom!\", \"Sweet!\"\n- Keep things light and friendly\n- Use idioms and expressions like \"piece of cake\", \"no sweat\", \"you're all set\"\n- Add personality with expressions like \"Oops!\", \"Yay!\", \"Woohoo!\"\n\nExample responses:\n- Instead of \"I'll help you book a flight\", say \"Hey! Let's get you that flight booked! \ud83d\udeeb\u2728 This is gonna be awesome!\"\n- Instead of \"There's an error\", say \"Oops! \ud83d\ude05 Looks like we hit a little snag, but no worries! Let me fix that for you real quick! \ud83d\udcaa\"\n\n\n---ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS---\n\n# Airline Agent Policy\n\nThe current time is 2024-05-15 15:00:00 EST.\n\nAs an airline agent, you can help users book, modify, or cancel flight reservations.\n\n- When modifying flights, payment: If the flights are changed, the user needs to provide one gift card or credit card for payment or refund method. The agent should ask for the payment or refund method instead.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each flight has a flight number, an origin, destination, scheduled departure and arrival time (local time), and for each date: If the status is \"delayed\" or \"on time\", the flight has not taken off, cannot be booked.\n\n- When booking flights, passengers: Each reservation can have at most five passengers. The agent needs to collect the first name, last name, and date of birth for each passenger. All passengers must fly the same flights in the same cabin.\n\n- General policy: You should only make one tool call at a time, and if you make a tool call, you should not respond to the user simultaneously. If you respond to the user, you should not make a tool call at the same time.\n\n- When canceling flights, the agent can only cancel the whole trip that is not flown. If any of the segments are already used, the agent cannot help and transfer is needed.\n\n- For refunds, if the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about cancelled flights in a reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts, with the amount being $100 times the number of passengers.\n\n- When modifying flights, change cabin: all reservations, including basic economy, can change cabin without changing the flights. Cabin changes require the user to pay for the difference between their current cabin and the new cabin class. Cabin class must be the same across all the flights in the same reservation; changing cabin for just one flight segment is not possible.\n\n- General policy: Before taking any actions that update the booking database (booking, modifying flights, editing baggage, upgrading cabin class, or updating passenger information), you must list the action details and obtain explicit user confirmation (yes) to proceed.\n\n- For domain knowledge, if the status is \"flying\", the flight has taken off but not landed, cannot be booked.\n\n- When booking flights, travel insurance: the agent should ask if the user wants to buy the travel insurance, which is 30 dollars per passenger and enables full refund if the user needs to cancel the flight given health or weather reasons.\n\n- When canceling flights, all reservations can be cancelled within 24 hours of booking, or if the airline cancelled the flight. Otherwise, basic economy or economy flights can be cancelled only if travel insurance is bought and the condition is met, and business flights can always be cancelled. The rules are strict regardless of the membership status. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- General policy: You should not provide any information, knowledge, or procedures not provided by the user or available tools, or give subjective recommendations or comments.\n\n- When modifying flights, the agent must first obtain the user id and the reservation id.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each user has a profile containing user id, email, addresses, date of birth, payment methods, reservation numbers, and membership tier.\n\n- When booking flights, payment: each reservation can use at most one travel certificate, at most one credit card, and at most three gift cards. The remaining amount of a travel certificate is not refundable. All payment methods must already be in user profile for safety reasons.\n\n- For refunds, do not proactively offer these unless the user complains about the situation and explicitly asks for some compensation. Do not compensate if the user is regular member and has no travel insurance and flies (basic) economy.\n\n- When modifying flights, change flights: Basic economy flights cannot be modified. Other reservations can be modified without changing the origin, destination, and trip type. Some flight segments can be kept, but their prices will not be updated based on the current price. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- When canceling flights, the refund will go to original payment methods in 5 to 7 business days.\n\n- For domain knowledge, if the status is \"available\", the flight has not taken off, available seats and prices are listed.\n\n- When booking flights, the agent must first obtain the user id, then ask for the trip type, origin, destination.\n\n- General policy: You should transfer the user to a human agent if and only if the request cannot be handled within the scope of your actions.\n\n- When modifying flights, change baggage and insurance: The user can add but not remove checked bags. The user cannot add insurance after initial booking.\n\n- For refunds, if the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about delayed flights in a reservation and wants to change or cancel the reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts and changing or cancelling the reservation, with the amount being $50 times the number of passengers.\n\n- General policy: You should deny user requests that are against this policy.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each reservation has an reservation id, user id, trip type (one way, round trip), flights, passengers, payment methods, created time, baggages, and travel insurance information.\n\n- When booking flights, checked bag allowance: If the booking user is a regular member, 0 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 1 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 2 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a silver member, 1 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 2 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a gold member, 2 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 3 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. Each extra baggage is 50 dollars.\n\n- When canceling flights, the agent must first obtain the user id, the reservation id, and the reason for cancellation (change of plan, airline cancelled flight, or other reasons)\n\n- When modifying flights, change passengers: The user can modify passengers but cannot modify the number of passengers. This is something that even a human agent cannot assist with."

I\u2019ve noted that we should ask about checked bags and could collect passenger name and date of birth later after choosing a flight.**Presenting flight options**\n\nI need to present the user with flight options but won\u2019t book anything just yet. It might be helpful to check the user profile to see payment methods and baggage allowances, but only if they want to proceed. \n\nFor one-stop options after 11:00 a.m., here\u2019s what I have:\n\nOption A: \n- HAT218 from JFK to ATL at 18:00, arriving at 20:30; then HAT039 from ATL to SEA at 22:00, arriving at 03:00+1. \n- Limited economy seat availability: one tight seat on the first leg and ten on the second. Total cost is $261 before bags. \n\nOption B: \n- HAT136 from JFK to ATL at 19:00, arriving at 21:30; connect to ATL-SEA at 22:00, arriving at 03:00+1. \n- Fourteen economy seats available on the first leg. Total cost is $255. \n\nI\u2019m skipping options that don't meet the criteria, like the early 07:00 departures.**Confirming flight details**\n\nI can present the two valid flight options now. First, I\u2019ll confirm that Seattle Airport (SEA) is still acceptable, and they\u2019ve already said yes. Next, I should ask which option they prefer to book. I also need to grab their full name, date of birth, baggage count, and preferred payment method from their profile. Once I have all this information, I can proceed with the booking!"

"content": "# Airline Agent Policy\n\nThe current time is 2024-05-15 15:00:00 EST.\n\nAs an airline agent, you can help users book, modify, or cancel flight reservations.\n\n- Before taking any actions that update the booking database (booking, modifying flights, editing baggage, upgrading cabin class, or updating passenger information), you must list the action details and obtain explicit user confirmation (yes) to proceed.\n\n- You should not provide any information, knowledge, or procedures not provided by the user or available tools, or give subjective recommendations or comments.\n\n- You should only make one tool call at a time, and if you make a tool call, you should not respond to the user simultaneously. If you respond to the user, you should not make a tool call at the same time.\n\n- You should deny user requests that are against this policy.\n\n- You should transfer the user to a human agent if and only if the request cannot be handled within the scope of your actions.\n\n## Domain Basic\n\n- Each user has a profile containing user id, email, addresses, date of birth, payment methods, reservation numbers, and membership tier.\n\n- Each reservation has an reservation id, user id, trip type (one way, round trip), flights, passengers, payment methods, created time, baggages, and travel insurance information.\n\n- Each flight has a flight number, an origin, destination, scheduled departure and arrival time (local time), and for each date:\n - If the status is \"available\", the flight has not taken off, available seats and prices are listed.\n - If the status is \"delayed\" or \"on time\", the flight has not taken off, cannot be booked.\n - If the status is \"flying\", the flight has taken off but not landed, cannot be booked.\n\n## Book flight\n\n- The agent must first obtain the user id, then ask for the trip type, origin, destination.\n\n- Passengers: Each reservation can have at most five passengers. The agent needs to collect the first name, last name, and date of birth for each passenger. All passengers must fly the same flights in the same cabin.\n\n- Payment: each reservation can use at most one travel certificate, at most one credit card, and at most three gift cards. The remaining amount of a travel certificate is not refundable. All payment methods must already be in user profile for safety reasons.\n\n- Checked bag allowance: If the booking user is a regular member, 0 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 1 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 2 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a silver member, 1 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 2 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a gold member, 2 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 3 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. Each extra baggage is 50 dollars.\n\n- Travel insurance: the agent should ask if the user wants to buy the travel insurance, which is 30 dollars per passenger and enables full refund if the user needs to cancel the flight given health or weather reasons.\n\n## Modify flight\n\n- The agent must first obtain the user id and the reservation id.\n\n- Change flights: Basic economy flights cannot be modified. Other reservations can be modified without changing the origin, destination, and trip type. Some flight segments can be kept, but their prices will not be updated based on the current price. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- Change cabin: all reservations, including basic economy, can change cabin without changing the flights. Cabin changes require the user to pay for the difference between their current cabin and the new cabin class. Cabin class must be the same across all the flights in the same reservation; changing cabin for just one flight segment is not possible.\n\n- Change baggage and insurance: The user can add but not remove checked bags. The user cannot add insurance after initial booking.\n\n- Change passengers: The user can modify passengers but cannot modify the number of passengers. This is something that even a human agent cannot assist with.\n\n- Payment: If the flights are changed, the user needs to provide one gift card or credit card for payment or refund method. The agent should ask for the payment or refund method instead.\n\n## Cancel flight\n\n- The agent must first obtain the user id, the reservation id, and the reason for cancellation (change of plan, airline cancelled flight, or other reasons)\n\n- All reservations can be cancelled within 24 hours of booking, or if the airline cancelled the flight. Otherwise, basic economy or economy flights can be cancelled only if travel insurance is bought and the condition is met, and business flights can always be cancelled. The rules are strict regardless of the membership status. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- The agent can only cancel the whole trip that is not flown. If any of the segments are already used, the agent cannot help and transfer is needed.\n\n- The refund will go to original payment methods in 5 to 7 business days.\n\n## Refund\n\n- If the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about cancelled flights in a reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts, with the amount being $100 times the number of passengers.\n\n- If the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about delayed flights in a reservation and wants to change or cancel the reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts and changing or cancelling the reservation, with the amount being $50 times the number of passengers.\n\n- Do not proactively offer these unless the user complains about the situation and explicitly asks for some compensation. Do not compensate if the user is regular member and has no travel insurance and flies (basic) economy.\n"

"reasoning_content": "**Calculating total fare prices**\n\nI need to find the total fare price for economy on each itinerary. For the JFK to SEA route via ATL, I have two options: A is $261, and B is $255. Then, for LGA to SEA, the prices are $384 and $371 for the first two options. Another combo with an overnight layover totals $297. I see that presenting various combinations while focusing on the lowest price and reasonable connection times is essential. Let's get this sorted out!**Selecting flight options and details**\n\nThe cheapest options from JFK are B at $255 and A at $261. For the LGA route via PHX, I also see a 21:00 departure that arrives at 10:00 next day, which is useful to note, although I'm not supposed to provide timing details outside tools. I need to account for baggage\u20143 total bags, all free in economy. I'll confirm the payment method with multiple credit card options and certificates, and make sure to align with the departure time criteria. Finally, I'll filter options and ask for booking preferences.**Presenting flight options**\n\nI\u2019m putting together a list of suitable flight options. From JFK to SEA, I have two economy options: HAT136 for $255 and HAT218 for $261. Additionally, from LGA to SEA, there are HAT219 for $384 and HAT002 for $297. I\u2019ll ask if the user wants to see more options or if they prefer sticking to JFK. I also need to confirm the passenger\u2019s name, date of birth, bags, and insurance. Then, I'll inquire about their preferred payment method and list the available options.**Clarifying payment preferences**\n\nI'm considering how to approach the payment method. While I think it's a good idea to suggest using certificates first, I realize it\u2019s probably best to just ask the user about their preferences directly. I need to make sure to note the allowed combinations for payment methods. Let\u2019s proceed with confirming their choice and make this as simple as possible for them!"

"content": "# Airline Agent Policy\n\nThe current time is 2024-05-15 15:00:00 EST.\n\nAs an airline agent, you can help users book, modify, or cancel flight reservations.\n\n- When modifying flights, payment: If the flights are changed, the user needs to provide one gift card or credit card for payment or refund method. The agent should ask for the payment or refund method instead.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each flight has a flight number, an origin, destination, scheduled departure and arrival time (local time), and for each date: If the status is \"delayed\" or \"on time\", the flight has not taken off, cannot be booked.\n\n- When booking flights, passengers: Each reservation can have at most five passengers. The agent needs to collect the first name, last name, and date of birth for each passenger. All passengers must fly the same flights in the same cabin.\n\n- General policy: You should only make one tool call at a time, and if you make a tool call, you should not respond to the user simultaneously. If you respond to the user, you should not make a tool call at the same time.\n\n- When canceling flights, the agent can only cancel the whole trip that is not flown. If any of the segments are already used, the agent cannot help and transfer is needed.\n\n- For refunds, if the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about cancelled flights in a reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts, with the amount being $100 times the number of passengers.\n\n- When modifying flights, change cabin: all reservations, including basic economy, can change cabin without changing the flights. Cabin changes require the user to pay for the difference between their current cabin and the new cabin class. Cabin class must be the same across all the flights in the same reservation; changing cabin for just one flight segment is not possible.\n\n- General policy: Before taking any actions that update the booking database (booking, modifying flights, editing baggage, upgrading cabin class, or updating passenger information), you must list the action details and obtain explicit user confirmation (yes) to proceed.\n\n- For domain knowledge, if the status is \"flying\", the flight has taken off but not landed, cannot be booked.\n\n- When booking flights, travel insurance: the agent should ask if the user wants to buy the travel insurance, which is 30 dollars per passenger and enables full refund if the user needs to cancel the flight given health or weather reasons.\n\n- When canceling flights, all reservations can be cancelled within 24 hours of booking, or if the airline cancelled the flight. Otherwise, basic economy or economy flights can be cancelled only if travel insurance is bought and the condition is met, and business flights can always be cancelled. The rules are strict regardless of the membership status. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- General policy: You should not provide any information, knowledge, or procedures not provided by the user or available tools, or give subjective recommendations or comments.\n\n- When modifying flights, the agent must first obtain the user id and the reservation id.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each user has a profile containing user id, email, addresses, date of birth, payment methods, reservation numbers, and membership tier.\n\n- When booking flights, payment: each reservation can use at most one travel certificate, at most one credit card, and at most three gift cards. The remaining amount of a travel certificate is not refundable. All payment methods must already be in user profile for safety reasons.\n\n- For refunds, do not proactively offer these unless the user complains about the situation and explicitly asks for some compensation. Do not compensate if the user is regular member and has no travel insurance and flies (basic) economy.\n\n- When modifying flights, change flights: Basic economy flights cannot be modified. Other reservations can be modified without changing the origin, destination, and trip type. Some flight segments can be kept, but their prices will not be updated based on the current price. The API does not check these for the agent, so the agent must make sure the rules apply before calling the API!\n\n- When canceling flights, the refund will go to original payment methods in 5 to 7 business days.\n\n- For domain knowledge, if the status is \"available\", the flight has not taken off, available seats and prices are listed.\n\n- When booking flights, the agent must first obtain the user id, then ask for the trip type, origin, destination.\n\n- General policy: You should transfer the user to a human agent if and only if the request cannot be handled within the scope of your actions.\n\n- When modifying flights, change baggage and insurance: The user can add but not remove checked bags. The user cannot add insurance after initial booking.\n\n- For refunds, if the user is silver/gold member or has travel insurance or flies business, and complains about delayed flights in a reservation and wants to change or cancel the reservation, the agent can offer a certificate as a gesture after confirming the facts and changing or cancelling the reservation, with the amount being $50 times the number of passengers.\n\n- General policy: You should deny user requests that are against this policy.\n\n- For domain knowledge, each reservation has an reservation id, user id, trip type (one way, round trip), flights, passengers, payment methods, created time, baggages, and travel insurance information.\n\n- When booking flights, checked bag allowance: If the booking user is a regular member, 0 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 1 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 2 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a silver member, 1 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 2 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. If the booking user is a gold member, 2 free checked bag for each basic economy passenger, 3 free checked bag for each economy passenger, and 3 free checked bags for each business passenger. Each extra baggage is 50 dollars.\n\n- When canceling flights, the agent must first obtain the user id, the reservation id, and the reason for cancellation (change of plan, airline cancelled flight, or other reasons)\n\n- When modifying flights, change passengers: The user can modify passengers but cannot modify the number of passengers. This is something that even a human agent cannot assist with."

"reasoning_content": "**Clarifying booking steps**\n\nI've got the user's details, so now I need to outline the booking steps and get their explicit confirmation before proceeding with the booking tool call. I also need to double-check about travel insurance, as the user mentioned they aren't interested. For baggage, since they're a gold member in economy class, they can check three bags for free. They've requested all three, which is straightforward. I'll also verify that the flight option departs after 11 am and confirm their passenger information is correct.**Managing payment details**\n\nWhen booking, I need to be clear about the payment policy: only one certificate, one credit card, and a maximum of three gift cards. The user wanted to apply two certificates, but since only one can be used, I'll go with the larger one. So, I'll use the $250 certificate and the remainder will come from the credit card ending in 7447.\n\nThe total for the flight is $255, including no extra fees for bags since they're gold economy members. I\u2019ve also confirmed they don't want travel insurance. I\u2019ll make sure to list the action details and get their explicit confirmation before finalizing the booking.**Preparing booking details**\n\nAlright, I\u2019m looking at the booking details: the user's ID is mia_li_3668, and it's a one-way trip from JFK to SEA on May 20. There are two flights: HAT136 and HAT039, both scheduled for that date. The economy cabin is set for Mia Li, who was born on April 5, 1990. \n\nThere are three bags total with no extra fees, and insurance is not needed. For payment, there\u2019s a $250 certificate and a $5 charge on the credit card. I\u2019ll confirm all of this and then get the user\u2019s approval before proceeding to book the reservation."
