String parameters should be specified as is and set `string="true"`. For all other types (numbers, booleans, arrays, objects), pass the value in JSON format and set `string="false"`.
If thinking_mode is enabled (triggered by {thinking_start_token}), you MUST output your complete reasoning inside {thinking_start_token}...{thinking_end_token} BEFORE any tool calls or final response.
Otherwise, output directly after {thinking_end_token} with tool calls or final response.
### Available Tool Schemas
{tool_schemas}
