Report #77489
[agent\_craft] Agent attempts complex mathematical calculations or multi-step data transformations purely in natural language reasoning
Offload deterministic logic, math, and large data transformations to a code execution environment \(e.g., Python REPL\), and only load the final result back into context.
Journey Context:
LLMs are bad at arithmetic and strict logic. Doing this in-context leads to hallucination and cascading errors. Externalizing to code trades a small I/O latency cost for near-perfect accuracy on deterministic tasks, keeping the context clean for semantic reasoning.
