[Bug] GMail "Get Emails by Date" Tool never gets the year right and retrieves E-Mails from one year ago instead of from today

[Pipasgonzalez]

Description

Briefly describe the issue you’re experiencing or the bug you’ve found.

I have tried playing around the the new Gmail Toolkit and in theory it works well. The only problem is that for whatever reason, when I tell it to retrieve e-mails from "today" it retrieves e-mails from today a year ago. I have tried inserting the date manually with datetime.now() inside the prompt, as well as using the argument "add_datetime_to_instructions" in the Agent constructor, but when the agent calls the tool, the argument it uses as datetime is today from a year ago

Steps to Reproduce

List the steps needed to encounter this bug or issue.

• Create a simple Gmail Agent
• Ask it for E-Mails from today

Agent Configuration (if applicable)

Provide relevant agent configuration.

EMailAssistant = Agent(
name = "E-Mail Assistant",
model = OpenAIChat(id="gpt-4o-mini"),
tools = [GmailTools()],
role = "Can see Nico's E-Mails, write E-Mail Drafts and send E-Mails",
respond_directly=False,
debug_mode=True,
add_datetime_to_instructions=True
)

response = EMailAssistant.run("What E-Mails did I get today?")

Expected Behavior

What did you expect to happen?

Retrieval of E-Mails from Today

Actual Behavior

What actually happened instead?

Retrieval of E-Mails from A year Ago

Screenshots or Logs (if applicable)

Include any relevant screenshots or error logs that demonstrate the issue.

DEBUG Tool Calls: [

},
"type": "function"
}
]

The Timestamp corresponds to Feb. 7th 2023, so even two years ago. For some reason it always gets the year wrong
