Output format? {"answer": "insert your final answer here"} or "insert your final answer here" ?

Hello and congrats for your job.

The output format seems to vary. These are examples from the constant TOOL_CALLING_SYSTEM_PROMPT :

To provide the final answer to the task, use an action blob with "tool_name": "final_answer" tool. It is the only way to complete the task, else you will be stuck on a loop. So your final output should look like this:
Action:
{
  "tool_name": "final_answer",
  "tool_arguments": {"answer": "insert your final answer here"}
}

...

Task: "What is the result of the following operation: 5 + 3 + 1294.678?"

Action:
{
    "tool_name": "python_interpreter",
    "tool_arguments": {"code": "5 + 3 + 1294.678"}
}
Observation: 1302.678

Action:
{
  "tool_name": "final_answer",
  "tool_arguments": "1302.678"
}

In the first example, the result is {"answer": "insert your final answer here"}. In the last, it is "1302.678". Just to share food for thought, I escaped the problem with:

def get_result_str(result_str):
  try:
    result_obj = json.loads(result_str)
    result = result_obj['answer']
  except ValueError as e:
    result = result_str
  return result

And then, get_result_str can be used with:

get_result_str(agent.run(task_str, reset=True, single_step=False))

In the case that you would like me to to try to code something, let me know.

Live long and prosper.
