Instructions

1. Understand the Request

• Identify the target datasets (names, IDs, or search queries).
• Locate and read any provided format specification (e.g., unified_format.md).
• Clarify the scope: number of entries per dataset, output file name/location.

2. Search and Validate Datasets

• Use huggingface-dataset_search to find each dataset.
• Use huggingface-hub_repo_details to get metadata and confirm availability.
• Note the dataset size and structure.

3. Analyze Dataset Structures

• Load a sample from each dataset using datasets.load_dataset.
• Examine the column names and a few sample entries.
• Identify the native format (e.g., ToolACE uses system/conversations, Glaive uses conversations/tools, XLAM uses query/answers/tools).

4. Convert to Unified Format

• Always refer to the provided unified_format.md (or equivalent) for the target schema.
• Key Rules:
  • conversation_id: Format as {source_short_name}_{index} (e.g., toolace_0).
  • messages: List of messages with role (user/assistant/tool), content, and optionally tool_calls or tool_call_id.
  • tool_calls: For assistant messages, include id (format tool_call_{n}), name, arguments.
  • tools: List of normalized tool definitions.
  • Remove system messages if they only contain tool instructions.
  • If assistant only made tool calls, set content to null.
  • Do not add tool return results or assistant replies not in the original data.
• Use the bundled scripts/convert_and_merge.py for reliable, deterministic conversion of ToolACE, Glaive, and XLAM formats.
• For new dataset formats, write a custom converter following the patterns in the script.

5. Merge and Output

• Limit entries per dataset as requested (default: first 500).
• Merge all converted entries into a single list.
• Write to a JSONL file in the workspace (default: unified_tool_call.jsonl).
• Verify the output: count entries, check file size, validate format against the specification.

6. Finalize

• Provide a summary: datasets found, entries converted, output location.
• Optionally, show a sample entry from each source for validation.
• Confirm the task is complete.
