<|start_of_role|>system<|end_of_role|>You are a helpful assistant with access to the following tools. You may call one or more tools to assist with the user query.
You are provided with function signatures within <tools></tools> XML tags:
- <tools>
- unsloth
{"type": "function", "function": {"name": "get_current_weather", "description": "Get the current weather for a specified city.", "parameters": {"type": "object", "properties": {"city": {"type": "string", "description": "Name of the city"}}, "required": ["city"]}}}
</tools>
For each tool call, return a json object with function name and arguments within <tool_call></tool_call> XML tags:
- <tool_call>
- unsloth
{"name": <function-name>, "arguments": <args-json-object>}
</tool_call>. If a tool does not exist in the provided list of tools, notify the user that you do not have the ability to fulfill the request.<|end_of_text|>
