reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) on the word "harm" in the given context.

 Let me analyze the context:
 - The passage is about Haney feeling annoyed and having a wild thought about someone being a "retired professional killer"
 - The specific sentence is: "If he was just a nut, no <t>harm</t> was done."
 - This is an idiomatic expression: "no harm was done" meaning no damage occurred, no one was hurt, nothing bad happened.

 Now let's look at the candidate senses:

 1. sense_key=harm%1:26:00:: | definition=any physical damage to the body caused by violence or accident or fracture etc. | synonyms=injury, hurt, trauma
    - This refers to physical injury to the body specifically.
    - While "harm" in the context could involve physical damage (given the mention of a "professional killer"), the phrase "no harm was done" is more general.

 2. sense_key=harm%1:11:01:: | definition=the occurrence of a change for the worse | synonyms=damage, impairment
    - This is about a change for the worse, an event/occurrence.
    - "No harm was done" - here "harm" seems to be the result or state, not just the occurrence.

 3. sense_key=harm%1:04:00:: | definition=the act of damaging something or someone | synonyms=damage, hurt, scathe
    - This refers to the act/action of damaging.
    - "No harm was done" - this could fit, but "harm" here seems to refer to the result/state rather than the act itself.

 Wait, let me reconsider. The phrase "no harm was done" is a common idiom. Let me think about what "harm" refers to here.

 Actually, looking at the WordNet senses:
 - Sense 1 (harm%1:26:00::): This is under noun.person or noun.state? The key shows %1:26:00 - 26 usually refers to noun.state or noun.attribute? Actually, in WordNet, 1:26 is usually noun.state or noun.attribute. Wait, looking at the definition "any physical damage to the body" - this sounds like it could be noun.state (the state of being injured).

 Let me check the WordNet structure mentally:
 - harm%1:04:00:: - noun.act (the act of damaging)
 - harm%1:11:01:: - noun.event (the occurrence of a change for the worse)
 - harm%1:26:00:: - noun.state (physical damage to the body)

 Actually, looking at standard WordNet:
 - harm.n.01: the act of damaging something or someone (act)
 - harm.n.02: the occurrence of a change for the worse (event)
 - harm.n.03: any physical damage to the body caused by violence or accident or fracture etc. (state/injury)

 Wait, the numbering might be different. Let me think about the context again.

 "If he was just a nut, no harm was done."

 This means: if he was just crazy/insane, then no damage/injury occurred (to anyone).

 Given the context about a "retired professional killer", the concern is about physical violence. However, "no harm was done" is a general expression meaning no damage occurred.

 But looking at the specific senses:
 - Sense 1: physical damage to the body specifically
 - Sense 2: occurrence of a change for the worse (more general)
 - Sense 3: the act of damaging (the action itself)

 In "no harm was done", "harm" is the object of "done". "Do harm" is a collocation. When we say "no harm was done", we mean no injury/damage was inflicted.

 But which sense fits best?

 Actually, looking at WordNet examples for these senses:
 - For harm%1:04:00:: (the act): "he did little harm"
 - For harm%1:11:01:: (the occurrence): "the storm caused great harm"
 - For harm%1:26:00:: (physical injury): "the patient suffered no harm"

 The phrase "no harm was done" is very close to "the patient suffered no harm" or "he did little harm".

 But "no harm was done" is passive. The subject "harm" is what was done.

 Actually, looking at the phrase "do harm":
 - "Do harm" means to cause injury or damage.
 - In "no harm was done", "harm" refers to the injury/damage that could have been caused.

 Between sense 1 (physical damage to the body) and sense 2 (occurrence of a change for the worse):

 Sense 1 is very specific to physical bodily injury.
 Sense 2 is more general: damage, impairment, change for the worse.

 In the context: "If he was just a nut, no harm was done. But if he was the real thing [professional killer], he could do something about Lolly."

 The implication is that if he's just crazy, then there's no danger, no damage has occurred, no one has been hurt. But if he's really a killer, then he could hurt Lolly.

 "No harm was done" here means no one has been hurt/injured yet, or no damage has occurred.

 However, sense 1 specifically mentions "physical damage to the body". Given that the context involves a potential "professional killer", physical damage to the body is exactly what's being discussed.

 But wait, "no harm was done" in this context might mean "no damage was done" in a general sense, not necessarily physical injury yet, but rather that the situation is harmless.

 Actually, looking at the idiom "no harm done", it's often used to mean "no damage occurred" or "no one was hurt".

 Let me reconsider the WordNet senses more carefully.

 Sense 1: harm%1:26:00:: - "any physical damage to the body caused by violence or accident or fracture etc." - synonyms: injury, hurt, trauma
 This is the result/state of being injured.

 Sense 2: harm%1:11:01:: - "the occurrence of a change for the worse" - synonyms: damage, impairment
 This is the event of something getting worse.

 Sense 3: harm%1:04:00:: - "the act of damaging something or someone" - synonyms: damage, hurt, scathe
 This is the action.

 In "no harm was done":
 - "Done" suggests an act was performed, but "harm" here is the result.
 - "No harm was done" = no injury was inflicted.

 I think sense 1 or sense 2 could fit, but sense 1 is more specific to physical injury, which fits the context of a "professional killer".

 However, "no harm was done" is often used more broadly. But given the specific mention of a killer and potential violence against Lolly, physical harm is what's meant.

 But let me check: is "harm" in "no harm was done" referring to the act or the result?

 "Harm was done" - passive voice. The agent (doer) is implied. "Harm" is the patient (thing affected).
 So "harm" here is the damage/injury itself, not the act of damaging.

 So it's either sense 1 or sense 2.

 Sense 1: physical damage to the body
 Sense 2: occurrence of a change for the worse (more general damage/impairment)

 Given the context of a "professional killer", sense 1 (physical damage to the body) seems most appropriate, as the concern is about physical violence.

 However, I should check if "no harm was done" is an idiom that maps to a specific sense.

 Actually, looking at WordNet usage examples:
 For harm%1:04:00:: (act): "the harm done by the storm"
 For harm%1:11:01:: (event): ?
 For harm%1:26:00:: (injury): ?

 Wait, I think I need to be careful about the WordNet sense keys. The user provided:
 1. harm%1:26:00:: - physical damage to body
 2. harm%1:11:01:: - occurrence of change for worse
 3. harm%1:04:00:: - act of damaging

 In standard WordNet 3.0:
 - harm.n.01: the act of damaging something or someone (act)
 - harm.n.02: the occurrence of a change for the worse (event)
 - harm.n.03: any physical damage to the body caused by violence or accident or fracture etc. (injury)

 But the lexicographer files might order them differently. The sense keys provided suggest:
 - %1:26:00 - noun.state (physical damage to body)
 - %1:11:01 - noun.event (occurrence of change for worse)
 - %1:04:00 - noun.act (act of damaging)

 In the sentence "no harm was done", this is equivalent to "no damage was inflicted" or "no injury occurred".

 If we interpret "harm" as the injury itself (the damage to the body), that's sense 1.
 If we interpret "harm" as the event of things getting worse, that's sense 2.
 If we interpret "harm" as the act, that's sense 3.

 "No harm was done" is most commonly understood as "no injury occurred" or "no damage was caused".

 Given the context about a killer, sense 1 (physical damage to the body) is the most specific and accurate. The concern is that if he is a real killer, he could physically harm Lolly. If he's just a nut, then no physical harm has been done (to anyone).

 However, sense 2 (damage/impairment more generally) could also work, but sense 1 is more precise for this violent context.

 But wait, "no harm was done" in this specific context might be referring to the fact that if he's just crazy, then there's no danger, no damage has been done by him being there or by the situation. It's a general "no damage" statement.

 Let me look at the synonyms again:
 Sense 1: injury, hurt, trauma - these are specifically physical
 Sense 2: damage, impairment - these can be physical or general
 Sense 3: damage, hurt, scathe - these can be the act

 Given the phrase "no harm was done" and the context of a potential killer, I believe the intended meaning is "no physical injury was inflicted", which maps to sense 1.

 But I want to double-check. Could it be sense 3 (the act)? "No act of damaging was done"? That's possible but less likely. We usually say "no harm was done" to mean the result is absent, not just the action.

 Actually, looking at collocations:
 - "do harm" - here harm is the object, and it refers to the damage/injury caused.
 - "cause harm" - similar.

 I think sense 1 is the best fit because:
 1. The context involves physical violence (professional killer)
 2. "Harm" here refers to injury to a person (Lolly potentially)
 3. Sense 1 specifically mentions "physical damage to the body"

 Sense 2 is too general ("occurrence of a change for the worse") and doesn't capture the physical violence aspect as well.

 Therefore, I choose sense 1.

 Wait, I should reconsider. Is "no harm was done" in this context about physical injury or general damage?

 The text says: "If he was just a nut, no harm was done. But if he was the real thing, he could do something about Lolly."

 The contrast is between "just a nut" (harmless crazy person) and "the real thing" (dangerous killer). So "no harm was done" means that if he's just crazy, then there's no danger, no one has been hurt, the situation is safe.

 This is general "damage" or "injury". But given that the alternative is a killer who could "do something about Lolly" (presumably kill or hurt her), the "harm" refers to physical violence.

 So sense 1 seems correct.

 But let me check if there's any reason to prefer sense 2. Sense 2 is "the occurrence of a change for the worse". If no harm was done, it means no change for the worse occurred. This fits the general meaning.

 However, WordNet sense 1 (harm%1:26:00::) is specifically about physical damage to the body, which is exactly what a killer would cause.

 I think the answer is sense 1.

 Actually, looking at the target surface form and the phrase "no harm was done", this is a very common phrase. In many WSD datasets, "no harm done" or "do harm" is often tagged with the general "damage" sense or the "injury" sense depending on the specific WordNet version.

 Given the choices:
 1. Physical damage to body (injury)
 2. Occurrence of change for worse (damage/impairment as event)
 3. Act of damaging (action)

 I think sense 1 is the most accurate for this violent context.

 Final check: The user asks for the "single best indexed sense". I should not hedge.

 I'll go with sense 1.

 The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) for the target word "done" (lemma "do") in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - "If he was just a nut, no harm was <t>done</t>."
 - This is a passive construction: "no harm was done"
 - The meaning is that no damage/injury occurred or was caused
 - "Done" here means "caused" or "brought about" or "performed"

 Looking at the candidate senses:

 1. sense_key=do%2:41:01:: | definition=engage in | synonyms=make | examples=make love, not war; make an effort
    - This seems to be about engaging in activities. "No harm was engaged in" doesn't fit well.

 2. sense_key=do%2:36:01:: | definition=carry out or perform an action | synonyms=perform, execute | examples=John did the painting...
    - "No harm was performed" - possible, but not the best fit for the idiom "no harm done"

 3. sense_key=do%2:41:04:: | definition=get (something) done | synonyms=perform | examples=I did my job
    - "No harm was got done" - awkward

 4. sense_key=do%2:42:00:: | definition=proceed or get along | synonyms=fare, make out...
    - Doesn't fit

 5. sense_key=do%2:36:02:: | definition=give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally | synonyms=cause, make | examples=cause a commotion; make a stir
    - "No harm was caused" - this fits perfectly! "No harm was done" means no harm was caused/inflicted.

 6. sense_key=do%2:41:02:: | definition=carry out or practice; as of jobs and professions | synonyms=practice...
    - Doesn't fit

 7. sense_key=do%2:42:01:: | definition=be sufficient...

    - Doesn't fit

 13. sense_key=do%2:38:00:: | definition=travel or traverse...
    - Doesn't fit

 The phrase "no harm was done" is an idiom meaning that no damage or injury was caused. This aligns with sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" with synonyms "cause, make".

 Wait, let me reconsider. In WordNet, the sense "do" meaning "cause" is often distinct from "perform". Let me look at the examples again.

 Sense 5: "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally" - examples: "cause a commotion; make a stir"
 - "No harm was done" = no harm was caused. This fits.

 But let me also consider sense 2: "carry out or perform an action"
 - "No harm was performed" - this is also possible, but less idiomatic.

 Actually, looking at WordNet structure, sense 5 (do%2:36:02) is the "cause" sense. The phrase "harm was done" is a classic example of the causative use of "do".

 However, I should check if there's a specific sense for "do" when used with "harm". In many dictionaries, "do harm" is considered a collocation where "do" means "cause" or "inflict".

 Looking at the sense keys:
 - do%2:36:02 is "give rise to; cause to happen or occur, not always intentionally"
 - This matches "cause harm"

 The other possibility is sense 1 (do%2:41:01) "engage in" - but that's not right.

 Or sense 3 (do%2:41:04) "get (something) done" - "get harm done" would mean something different.

 Actually, looking carefully at the context: "no harm was done" - this is the passive of "do harm".

 In WordNet 3.0/3.1, the sense "do" for causing something (like harm) is typically sense 5 (do%2:36:02).

 Let me verify the sense indices:
 1. engage in
 2. carry out or perform an action
 3. get (something) done
 4. proceed or get along
 5. give rise to; cause to happen...
 6. carry out or practice (jobs)
 7. be sufficient
 8. create or design
 9. behave
 10. spend time in prison
 11. carry on or function
 12. arrange attractively
 13. travel or traverse

 Yes, sense 5 is the "cause" sense. "No harm was done" = no harm was caused.

 Therefore, the answer should be sense_index: 5.

 Wait, I need to be careful. The user says "Do not answer with a WordNet sense key" and "Return only a JSON object exactly like {"sense_index": 3}."

 So I should return {"sense_index": 5}.

 But let me double-check if there's any other interpretation. Could it be sense 2 (perform)?
 "No harm was performed" - grammatically possible, but "perform harm" is not idiomatic English. We say "cause harm" or "do harm", where "do" functions as a causative/light verb.

 In WSD tasks, "do harm" is typically tagged with the causative sense (cause/make).

 Therefore, sense 5 is correct.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) on the word "do" in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - The sentence is: "But if he was the real thing, he could <t>do</t> something about Lolly."
 - The context is about Haney thinking that if this guy is really a retired professional killer, he could "do something about Lolly" (presumably take action regarding Lolly, possibly kill or harm Lolly, or solve the problem with Lolly).
 - The meaning here is about taking action, performing an action, or carrying out some deed.

 Looking at the candidate senses:

 1. sense_key=do%2:41:01:: | definition=engage in | synonyms=make | examples=make love, not war; make an effort
    - This is about engaging in an activity. "Do something about" could fit, but let's check others.

 Now, between sense 1 (engage in), sense 2 (carry out or perform an action), and sense 3 (get something done).

 The phrase is "do something about Lolly". This is an idiomatic expression meaning to take action to solve a problem or deal with a situation involving Lolly.

 Sense 2: "carry out or perform an action" - This seems to fit best. The professional killer would perform an action (presumably killing or dealing with) regarding Lolly.

 Sense 1: "engage in" - This is more about participating in an activity.

 Sense 3: "get (something) done" - This is more about completing a task or job.

 The context suggests that Haney thinks the killer could take action against Lolly or solve the problem with Lolly. This aligns with "carry out or perform an action" (sense 2).

 However, looking at the examples for sense 2: "John did the painting, the weeding, and he cleaned out the gutters" - these are specific tasks.

 For sense 1: "make love, not war; make an effort" - these are more general engagements.

 Actually, looking at WordNet more carefully:
 - do%2:36:01:: is the sense for "perform, execute" - this is the general sense of performing actions.
 - do%2:41:01:: is "engage in" - this is often used for activities like "do business", "do research".

 The phrase "do something about" is a specific construction. In WordNet, "do" in the sense of performing an action is often sense 2:36:01.

 But let me reconsider. The phrase "do something about" means to take action to solve a problem. This is closest to "carry out or perform an action" (sense 2) or possibly "get (something) done" (sense 3).

 Actually, looking at the gloss for sense 3: "get (something) done" with example "I did my job". This implies completing a duty or task.

 In the context, Haney thinks the killer could "do something about Lolly" - meaning take care of the problem with Lolly, or perform some action regarding Lolly.

 I think sense 2 (carry out or perform an action) is the best fit. The killer would perform an action (kill or harm) regarding Lolly.

 Wait, looking at the sense keys:
 - do%2:36:01:: corresponds to WordNet sense 2 in the verb.creation or verb.contact class? Actually, looking at the format:
   - do%2:36:01:: - 36 is the lexicographer file number for verb.creation? No, 36 is verb.creation.
   - Actually, in WordNet sense keys:
     - %2:36:01 - 36 usually corresponds to verb.creation or similar.
     - %2:41:01 - 41 is usually verb.social or verb.cognition?

 Let me check the WordNet lexicographer file numbers:
 - 29: verb.body
 - 36: verb.creation
 - 41: verb.social
 - 42: verb.stative
 - 38: verb.motion

 So:
 - Sense 1: do%2:41:01:: (verb.social) - engage in
 - Sense 2: do%2:36:01:: (verb.creation) - carry out or perform an action
 - Sense 3: do%2:41:04:: (verb.social) - get (something) done
 - Sense 4: do%2:42:00:: (verb.stative) - proceed or get along
 - Sense 5: do%2:36:02:: (verb.creation) - give rise to; cause
 - Sense 6: do%2:41:02:: (verb.social) - carry out or practice (professions)
 - Sense 7: do%2:42:01:: (verb.stative) - be sufficient
 - Sense 8: do%2:36:00:: (verb.creation) - create or design
 - Sense 9: do%2:29:09:: (verb.body) - behave
 - Sense 10: do%2:42:02:: (verb.stative) - spend time in prison
 - Sense 11: do%2:41:03:: (verb.social) - carry on or function
 - Sense 12: do%2:29:04:: (verb.body) - arrange attractively
 - Sense 13: do%2:38:00:: (verb.motion) - travel

 Now, "do something about" is most likely sense 2 (carry out or perform an action) or sense 1 (engage in).

 But "do something about" is a phrasal use where "do" means to take action. This is the general sense of performing an action.

 Sense 2 examples: "John did the painting, the weeding..." - performing tasks.
 Sense 1 examples: "make love, not war; make an effort" - engaging in activities.

 "Do something about Lolly" - here "do" means to take action, to perform some deed. This aligns with sense 2: carry out or perform an action.

 However, there's also sense 3: "get (something) done" - but this is more about completing assigned work.

 I think sense 2 is the correct choice. The killer could perform an action regarding Lolly.

 Actually, looking at the specific phrase "do something about", in many WSD datasets, this is often tagged with the sense "carry out or perform an action" or similar.

 Let me double-check if there's a better fit. Could it be sense 5 (cause)? "Do something about" doesn't mean to cause something.

 Could it be sense 9 (behave)? No.

 So it's between sense 1 and sense 2.

 Sense 1: engage in - "do business", "do research"
 Sense 2: carry out or perform an action - "do the painting", "do a pirouette"

 "Do something about Lolly" implies performing some action to deal with the situation involving Lolly. This is closer to sense 2.

 Therefore, the answer should be sense_index 2.

 Wait, I need to be careful. The user asks for the "single best indexed sense" and to return {"sense_index": 3} format (where 3 is the index in the list provided).

 Looking at the list:
 1. sense_key=do%2:41:01::
 2. sense_key=do%2:36:01::
 3. sense_key=do%2:41:04::
 ...

 So if I choose sense_key=do%2:36:01::, that is index 2.

 But let me reconsider sense 3 (do%2:41:04:: - get (something) done). Could "do something about Lolly" mean "get something done about Lolly"? Yes, that's essentially what it means - to take care of the problem, to get the task of dealing with Lolly accomplished.

 However, the gloss "get (something) done" with example "I did my job" suggests a focus on completing one's duty or task. In the context, it's not necessarily about completing a job, but about taking action.

 Sense 2 "carry out or perform an action" is more general and fits "do something" better.

 I will go with index 2.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target word "felt" (lemma: feel) in the given context.

Let me analyze the context:
"He felt very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot."

The subject "He" is experiencing an emotional state - he feels cunning and proud. This is about undergoing an emotional sensation or being in a particular state of mind.

Let me look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=feel%2:37:00:: | definition=undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind | synonyms=experience | examples=She felt resentful; He felt regret
- This fits perfectly. "He felt very cunning, very proud" - these are emotional states/mental states. The examples include "She felt resentful" which is parallel to "He felt proud/cunning".

2. sense_key=feel%2:31:00:: | definition=come to believe on the basis of emotion, intuitions, or indefinite grounds | synonyms=find | examples=I feel that he doesn't like me; I find him to be obnoxious
- This is about believing something, usually with a complement clause. Not fitting here.

3. sense_key=feel%2:39:00:: | definition=perceive by a physical sensation, e.g., coming from the skin or muscles | synonyms=sense | examples=He felt the wind; She felt an object brushing her arm
- Physical sensation, not emotional.

4. sense_key=feel%2:29:00:: | definition=be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state | examples=My cold is gone--I feel fine today; She felt tired after the long hike
- This is also a possibility. "I feel fine" is about being conscious of a state. But sense 1 is more specifically about undergoing an emotional sensation. Let me compare 1 and 4.
- Sense 1: undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind. Examples: She felt resentful; He felt regret.
- Sense 4: be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state. Examples: I feel fine today; She felt tired.
- "Cunning" and "proud" are more specific emotional sensations/states of mind. The examples in sense 1 (resentful, regret) are emotions, while sense 4 examples (fine, tired) are more general states (though tired could be physical or mental).
- Actually, "proud" and "cunning" are emotional/mental states. Sense 1 seems more precise because it specifically targets emotional sensations. But sense 4 also covers emotional states.
- Wait, let me look more carefully. Sense 4 says "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state". The examples are "I feel fine today" and "She felt tired". These are more about overall condition.
- Sense 1: "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind". Examples: "She felt resentful", "He felt regret". These are specific emotions, just like "proud" and "cunning".
- I think sense 1 is the best fit because "cunning" and "proud" are emotional sensations, and the structure "He felt [adjective describing emotion/character trait]" matches sense 1 examples exactly.

5. sense_key=feel%2:31:01:: | definition=have a feeling or perception about oneself in reaction to someone's behavior or attitude | examples=She felt small and insignificant; You make me feel naked
- This is about self-perception in reaction to others. While "proud" could fit here, the context says he felt proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot. It's not really about reacting to someone else's behavior toward him, but his own emotional state.

6. sense_key=feel%2:39:01:: | definition=undergo passive experience of: | examples=We felt the effects of inflation; her fingers felt their way through the string quartet
- Not fitting.

7. sense_key=feel%2:42:00:: | definition=be felt or perceived in a certain way | examples=The ground feels shaky; The sheets feel soft
- This is copular with the subject being the thing perceived. Not fitting.

8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 - These are all physical touch, finding way, etc. Not fitting.

So it's between 1 and 4, possibly 5.

Sense 5: "have a feeling or perception about oneself in reaction to someone's behavior or attitude" - examples: "She felt small and insignificant; You make me feel naked". These are about self-perception triggered by others. In our sentence, he felt proud of himself - but it's not clear if this is triggered by someone else's behavior toward him. The context says "as he played on the other man's soft spot" - he is the active one manipulating, not reacting to being manipulated. So sense 5 is not right.

Between 1 and 4:
Sense 1 is specifically about emotional sensation/state of mind.
Sense 4 is about being conscious of physical, mental, or emotional state.

"He felt very cunning, very proud of himself" - this is clearly an emotional state. Both could work, but sense 1 is more specific and the examples (resentful, regret) are closer to proud/cunning than sense 4 examples (fine, tired). In WordNet, sense 1 (feel%2:37:00::) is the standard sense for "feel" with emotional adjectives.

Actually, looking at WordNet structure:
- feel%2:37:00:: is usually the first sense, covering "experience emotions"
- feel%2:29:00:: is often the "feel well/ill/tired" sense

Given the examples for sense 1 include "She felt resentful; He felt regret" - these are emotions/character traits, exactly parallel to "He felt very cunning, very proud".

Therefore, sense_index 1 is the best choice.

Wait, I need to make sure about the indexing. The user lists:
1. sense_key=feel%2:37:00::
2. sense_key=feel%2:31:00::
3. sense_key=feel%2:39:00::
4. sense_key=feel%2:29:00::
5. sense_key=feel%2:31:01::
...

So the index is 1.

Let me double-check if there's any trick. "He felt very cunning" - could this be physical? No. Could it be sense 4 "be conscious of a physical, mental, or emotional state"? He is conscious of being proud/cunning. But sense 1 is "undergo an emotional sensation or be in a particular state of mind".

In many WSD datasets, "feel proud" is annotated with the emotion sense (feel%2:37:00::). The "feel tired/fine" sense (feel%2:29:00::) is more about general physical/mental condition. "Proud" and "cunning" are emotions/mental states, so sense 1 is correct.

The answer should be {"sense_index": 1}.

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) on the word "cunning" in the given context.

 Let me analyze the context:
 - The character is having a "wild thought" about manipulating someone
 - He feels "very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot"
 - He's trying to deceive or manipulate the other person by appealing to their emotions ("soft spot")
 - The context suggests deception, trickery, or craftiness

 Now let's look at the candidate senses:

 1. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:attractive:01
    - Definition: attractive especially by means of smallness or prettiness or quaintness
    - Synonyms: cute
    - Examples: a cute kid with pigtails; a cute little apartment
    - This doesn't fit. The context isn't about attractiveness or cuteness.

 2. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:artful:00
    - Definition: marked by skill in deception
    - Synonyms: crafty, dodgy, foxy, guileful, knavish, slick
    - Examples: cunning men often pass for wise; deep political machinations
    - This fits well. The character is being deceptive ("played on the other man's soft spot") and is proud of his trickery/manipulation.

 3. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:adroit:00
    - Definition: showing inventiveness and skill
    - Synonyms: clever, ingenious
    - Examples: a clever gadget; the cunning maneuvers leading to his success
    - While this involves skill, the context emphasizes deception and manipulation ("played on the other man's soft spot") rather than just inventiveness or cleverness in a positive/neutral sense. The phrase "played on" suggests manipulation and deceit, which aligns better with sense 2.

 The key phrase is "he played on the other man's soft spot" - this indicates deception, manipulation, taking advantage of someone's weakness. This aligns with "marked by skill in deception" (sense 2) rather than just "showing inventiveness and skill" (sense 3).

 Also, the synonyms for sense 2 (crafty, dodgy, foxy, guileful, knavish, slick) fit the context of manipulating someone better than the synonyms for sense 3 (clever, ingenious).

 Therefore, the best sense is sense 2.

 Wait, I need to check the indexing. The user lists:
 1. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:attractive:01
 2. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:artful:00
 3. sense_key=cunning%5:00:00:adroit:00

 So sense_index should be 2.

 But let me double-check if sense 3 could be correct. "Cunning maneuvers" in the example for sense 3 could potentially fit, but the context here specifically involves deception and playing on someone's emotions/weaknesses, which is more strongly associated with the "artful/deceptive" meaning. The pride he feels is in his ability to manipulate/deceive, not just in being clever or ingenious in a general sense.

 Also, looking at the WordNet structure, "cunning" as an adjective:
 - Sense 1: appealingly cute (attractive)
 - Sense 2: crafty, cunning (artful, marked by skill in deception)
 - Sense 3: clever, cunning (adroit, showing inventiveness)

 The context clearly involves deception and manipulation, so sense 2 is correct.

 Final answer: {"sense_index": 2}

reasoning_content:
 The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "proud" in the given context.

 Let me analyze the context:
 "Then a wild thought ran circles through his clouded brain. Suppose -- just suppose this guy was really what he said he was T!! A retired professional killer If he was just a nut, no harm was done. But if he was the real thing, he could do something about Lolly. He felt very cunning, very <t>proud</t> of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot. "No offense intended ", he said gently."

 The target word "proud" appears in the phrase: "He felt very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot."

 Key observations:
 1. The subject feels "proud of himself"
 2. This pride comes from being "cunning" and manipulating ("played on") the other man
 3. He seems pleased with his own cleverness/scheme

 Now let's look at the candidate senses:

 Sense 1: "feeling self-respect or pleasure in something by which you measure your self-worth; or being a reason for pride"
 - Examples: proud parents; proud of his accomplishments
 - This matches "proud of himself" - feeling pleasure in one's own actions/cleverness

 Sense 2: "having or displaying great dignity or nobility"
 - Synonyms: gallant, lofty, majestic
 - Examples: a gallant pageant; lofty ships
 - This seems to describe something/someone noble, dignified, impressive in appearance
 - The context doesn't suggest dignity or nobility - rather it suggests satisfaction with one's own cunning/manipulation

 The context clearly shows the character feeling pleased with himself for his own cleverness/cunning. This matches Sense 1, which is about feeling self-respect or pleasure in something (in this case, his own cunning/plan).

 Sense 2 is about external display of dignity/nobility (like a "proud ship" or "possessing pride in appearance"), which doesn't fit here.

 The phrase "proud of himself" directly aligns with the first sense's definition and example "proud of his accomplishments".

 Therefore, the correct sense is sense 1 (index 1).

 Wait, I need to check the sense_key format provided:
 1. sense_key=proud%3:00:00::
 2. sense_key=proud%5:00:00:impressive:00

 These correspond to:
 1. adjective (3), head synset (00), specific meaning (00)
 2. adjective (5 - satellite?), ...

 Actually in WordNet:
 - %3:00:00:: would be an adjective (3), with specific format
 - %5:00:00:... would be an adjective satellite

 But regardless of the technical format, the question asks for "sense_index" which appears to be the numerical index in the list provided (1 or 2).

 So I should return: {"sense_index": 1}

 Let me double check:
 - Is there any chance it could be sense 2? No, because "proud of himself" is clearly about self-satisfaction/self-worth, not about displaying dignity/nobility. The character is being manipulative and cunning, not gallant or majestic.
 - The context is about feeling clever and satisfied with one's own scheming, which fits "feeling self-respect or pleasure in something by which you measure your self-worth" (his cunning/planning ability).

 Yes, definitely sense 1.

 Wait, I need to make sure about the "satellite" adjective distinction. In WordNet, "proud" has:
 - proud(a) - feeling self-respect or pleasure...
 - proud(s) - having or displaying great dignity or nobility (satellite of lofty?)

 Actually checking WordNet:
 The adjective "proud" has:
 1. feeling self-respect or pleasure in something by which you measure your self-worth; or being a reason for pride; "proud parents"; "proud of his accomplishments"; "a proud moment"; "proud to serve his country"
 2. having or displaying great dignity or nobility; "a gallant pageant"; "lofty ships"; "proud alpine peaks"

 These are indeed the two main senses.

 In the context, "proud of himself" clearly maps to sense 1.

 Therefore: {"sense_index": 1}

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation on the word "played" in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - The sentence is: "He felt very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the other man's soft spot."
 - The phrase "played on" suggests manipulation or taking advantage of something.
 - "Soft spot" means a vulnerability or weakness.
 - The character is being cunning and trying to manipulate the other person by exploiting their vulnerability.

 Looking at the candidate senses:

 1. play%2:33:00:: - participate in games or sport (not relevant)
 2. play%2:41:12:: - act or have an effect in a specified way (possible, but vague)

 34. play%2:33:02:: - contend against an opponent (sports context)
 35. play%2:29:04:: - exhaust by allowing to pull (fishing context)

 Sense 20: play%2:34:13:: - definition=use to one's advantage | examples=She plays on her clients' emotions

 This matches perfectly! The example even uses "plays on" with emotions, and in the context, he is "playing on the other man's soft spot" (exploiting his vulnerability/weakness).

 Let me double-check sense 2: "act or have an effect in a specified way or with a specific effect or outcome" - example: "This factor played only a minor part in his decision; This development played into her hands"

 While "played into her hands" is similar, the specific phrase "play on" meaning to exploit or manipulate is best captured by sense 20.

 Sense 19: "manipulate manually or in one's mind or imagination" - this is about physical manipulation (fidgeting), not psychological exploitation.

 Sense 20 is definitely the best fit: "use to one's advantage" with the example "She plays on her clients' emotions" which parallels "he played on the other man's soft spot."

 The index for this sense in the list provided is 20 (counting from 1).

 Wait, let me count carefully:
 1. sense_key=play%2:33:00::
 2. sense_key=play%2:41:12::
 3. sense_key=play%2:36:12::

 18. sense_key=play%2:36:05::
 19. sense_key=play%2:35:00::

 Yes, it's the 20th item in the list.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "other" in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - The sentence is: "He felt very cunning, very proud of himself as he played on the <t>other</t> man's soft spot."
 - The context is about a man interacting with another man (the "other man").
 - "Other" here refers to a different person than the one already mentioned (the narrator/protagonist).
 - It's referring to the second man in the interaction - the one who might be a retired professional killer.

 Candidate sense analysis:

 1. sense_key=other%3:00:00:: | definition=not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied
    - This seems to fit. It means "not the same one already mentioned" - i.e., a different person.
    - Examples: "today isn't any other day", "the construction of highways and other public works"
    - This is the general sense of "other" meaning "different from the one(s) already mentioned".

 2. sense_key=other%5:00:00:past:00 | definition=recently past
    - Examples: "the other evening"
    - This doesn't fit. We're not talking about time here.

 3. sense_key=other%5:00:02:past:00 | definition=belonging to the distant past
    - Synonyms: early, former
    - Examples: "the early inhabitants of Europe"
    - This doesn't fit. Not referring to the past.

 4. sense_key=other%5:00:00:strange:00 | definition=very unusual; different in character or quality from the normal or expected
    - Examples: "a strange, other dimension"
    - This doesn't fit. While the man might be strange, "the other man" here simply means "the second man" or "the different man" - not implying he's unusual or strange in the sense of "otherworldly" or "very unusual".

 The phrase "the other man" is a straightforward reference to a different person than the one previously mentioned (the protagonist). This is the basic adjectival sense of "other" meaning "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied."

 Therefore, sense 1 is the correct choice.

 Wait, let me double-check the WordNet sense keys. The format other%3:00:00:: suggests this is an adjective (3), and the specific sense is the first one listed (00).

 Actually, looking at WordNet:
 - other%3:00:00:: is indeed the main adjective sense: "not the same one or ones already mentioned or implied"
 - The other senses are satellite adjectives (indicated by the 5 in the second position: other%5...)

 So sense 1 is the correct choice.

 The context clearly distinguishes between "he" (the protagonist) and "the other man" (the person he's talking to/manipulating). This is the standard use of "other" to refer to an additional or different person.

 Final check:
 - Is it sense 2 (recently past)? No, "the other man" doesn't mean "the recently past man."
 - Is it sense 3 (belonging to distant past)? No.
 - Is it sense 4 (strange/unusual)? While the man might be unusual, the word "other" here is not being used to mean "strange" - it's being used to distinguish between two people in the scene.

 Therefore: {"sense_index": 1}

reasoning_content:
The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the word "man" in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - The passage describes a character thinking about another person (referred to as "this guy" and "the other man")
 - The character is manipulating or playing on "the other man's soft spot"
 - The context suggests a specific male individual being interacted with
 - Phrases: "he played on the other man's soft spot", "No offense intended", he said gently"

 Looking at the candidate senses:

 1. sense_key=man%1:18:00:: | definition=an adult person who is male (as opposed to a woman) | synonyms=adult male | examples=there were two women and six men on the bus
    - This is the general sense of an adult male human. The context refers to a specific male person (the retired professional killer or the nut). This seems plausible.

 2. sense_key=man%1:18:03:: | definition=someone who serves in the armed forces; a member of a military force
    - Context mentions "retired professional killer" which might suggest military, but the target word "man" refers to the person he's talking to/manipulating, not necessarily the military aspect.

 3. sense_key=man%1:18:04:: | definition=the generic use of the word to refer to any human being
    - This is generic "man" as in mankind. But here it's "the other man" - specific individual, not generic.

 4. sense_key=man%1:05:01:: | definition=any living or extinct member of the family Hominidae...
    - This is the biological species sense. Too broad/scientific for this narrative context.

 5. sense_key=man%1:18:08:: | definition=a male subordinate | examples=the chief stationed two men outside the building; he awaited word from his man in Havana
    - This implies subordination or being an agent/employee. The context has "his man" but here it's "the other man" - not clearly indicating subordination.

 6. sense_key=man%1:18:06:: | definition=an adult male person who has a manly character (virile and courageous competent)
    - This emphasizes manly character. The context doesn't emphasize this quality specifically.

 7. sense_key=man%1:18:05:: | definition=a manservant who acts as a personal attendant...
    - This is a valet. Not relevant here.

 8. sense_key=man%1:18:07:: | definition=a male person who plays a significant role (husband or lover or boyfriend) in the life of a particular woman
    - This is about a relationship to a woman. The context mentions "Lolly" (possibly a woman), but the "other man" is not necessarily her partner - he's a potential killer who could "do something about Lolly."

 9. sense_key=man%1:15:00:: | definition=one of the British Isles...
    - Place name. Not relevant.

 10. sense_key=man%1:06:00:: | definition=game equipment...
    - Chess piece. Not relevant.

 11. sense_key=man%1:05:00:: | definition=all of the living human inhabitants...
    - Collective humanity. Not relevant.

 The most likely candidates are 1 and possibly 5.

 Sense 1: "an adult person who is male" - this is the general, unmarked sense for a male individual.

 Sense 5: "a male subordinate" - the example includes "his man in Havana" which suggests an agent or subordinate. But in the text, it's "the other man" - this suggests simply the other male person present, not necessarily a subordinate.

 The phrase "the other man" is contrasting with the protagonist. The protagonist is thinking about "this guy" (the other man). This is simply referring to an adult male person.

 Therefore, sense 1 (man%1:18:00::) is the best fit.

 Wait, let me double-check sense 5. The example "he awaited word from his man in Havana" suggests an agent or representative. But in the text: "he played on the other man's soft spot" - this is just referring to the other male person in the interaction. There's no indication of subordination or that the man works for him. In fact, the protagonist is trying to manipulate him, suggesting the other man has power or capability (as a killer), not that he's a subordinate.

 Sense 1 is the default sense for an adult male human being.

 Actually, looking carefully at the WordNet sense keys:
 - man%1:18:00:: is the general adult male sense
 - man%1:18:08:: is specifically "a male subordinate"

 The context: "the other man's soft spot" - this is simply referring to the other male individual present in the scene (the "guy" mentioned earlier). This is the basic sense of an adult male.

 Therefore, the answer should be sense 1.

 But wait, I should check if there's any other sense that might fit better. The text mentions "this guy" and "the other man" - this is clearly referring to a specific male individual. The most general sense (sense 1) is appropriate.

 However, looking at the examples for sense 1: "there were two women and six men on the bus" - this is the general count noun sense for adult males.

 The context is narrative fiction referring to a specific male character. This fits sense 1.

 One more check: could it be sense 8 (husband/lover/boyfriend)? The text mentions "Lolly" and that the man could "do something about Lolly." This could imply the other man is a rival or someone with a relationship to Lolly, but the text doesn't explicitly state that. It just says he could do something about her (presumably help or harm). The phrase "the other man" simply distinguishes him from the narrator/protagonist.

 I think sense 1 is correct.

 Wait, I need to be careful about the indexing. The user lists:
 1. sense_key=man%1:18:00::
 2. sense_key=man%1:18:03::
 3. sense_key=man%1:18:04::
 4. sense_key=man%1:05:01::
 5. sense_key=man%1:18:08::
 6. sense_key=man%1:18:06::
 7. sense_key=man%1:18:05::
 8. sense_key=man%1:18:07::
 9. sense_key=man%1:15:00::
 10. sense_key=man%1:06:00::
 11. sense_key=man%1:05:00::

 So sense 1 in the list corresponds to man%1:18:00::.

 Actually, looking at the WordNet structure, man%1:18:00:: is indeed the first sense under noun.person (1:18).

 But let me reconsider sense 5 in the list (man%1:18:08:: - a male subordinate). The example "the chief stationed two men outside the building" - this is similar to military or subordinate usage, but distinct from sense 2 (military specifically).

 Actually, looking at the context again: "he played on the other man's soft spot" - this is a conversation between two people. The narrator is manipulating the other person. This is simply "an adult person who is male."

 I should confirm that sense 1 is indeed the best choice. The word "man" here is used to refer to a specific male individual (the "guy" mentioned earlier). This is the prototypical use of "man" as an adult male human.

 Therefore: {"sense_index": 1}

 The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation for the target lemma "soft_spot" in the given context.

 Context analysis:
 - The character is playing on the other man's "soft spot"
 - He's being cunning and manipulative
 - He's trying to get something (help with "Lolly")
 - The phrase "played on" suggests exploiting a vulnerability or weakness
 - "No offense intended" suggests he's being careful about touching on a sensitive area

 Candidate senses:
 1. sense_key=soft_spot%1:07:00:: | definition=a place of especial vulnerability | synonyms=weak part, weak spot
 2. sense_key=soft_spot%1:12:00:: | definition=a sentimental affection | examples=she had a soft spot for her youngest son
 3. sense_key=soft_spot%1:08:00:: | definition=any membranous gap between the bones of the cranium in an infant or fetus | synonyms=fontanelle, fontanel

 Analysis:
 - Sense 3 is anatomical (fontanelle) - clearly not relevant here as they're talking about psychological manipulation, not physical anatomy.
 - Sense 2 is about sentimental affection (having a soft spot FOR someone/something). The example shows "she had a soft spot for her youngest son" - this is about fondness/affection.
 - Sense 1 is about vulnerability/weakness (weak part, weak spot).

 In the context: "he played on the other man's soft spot" - this means he's exploiting a vulnerability or weakness in the other man. The phrase "played on" is commonly used with vulnerabilities (playing on someone's fears, playing on their weaknesses).

 While sense 2 (sentimental affection) could theoretically be exploited, the phrase "played on" combined with the context of manipulation and cunning suggests exploiting a vulnerability rather than appealing to fondness. Also, if it were sense 2, we'd expect "soft spot for [something]" but here it's "the other man's soft spot" being played upon.

 The synonyms "weak part, weak spot" fit best with the context of a retired professional killer being manipulated - the speaker is finding a vulnerability to exploit.

 Therefore, sense 1 is the best choice.

 Wait, let me reconsider. Could it be sense 2? "Played on his soft spot" - could mean exploiting his sentimental side? But the context suggests the speaker is being "cunning" and this is about whether the guy is a "retired professional killer" who could "do something about Lolly." It seems like he's trying to manipulate the guy by finding his weakness/vulnerability.

 Actually, looking at the phrase "played on" - you can "play on someone's emotions" or "play on someone's sympathies" - which might align with sense 2. But "soft spot" in sense 2 is typically "have a soft spot for" not "play on someone's soft spot."

 Let me check common collocations:
 - "Play on a soft spot" - this is less common than "have a soft spot"
 - But "soft spot" meaning vulnerability is definitely a thing - "a soft spot in the defense"

 The context: "he played on the other man's soft spot" - given that he's trying to get the guy to do something (about Lolly), and he's being cunning, and the guy might be a killer... it seems like he's probing for a weakness or vulnerability.

 Also, sense 1's definition "a place of especial vulnerability" fits metaphorically here - a psychological vulnerability.

 Sense 2 would require the soft spot to be an affection for something specific, but there's no object of affection mentioned in the immediate context (no "soft spot for X").

 Therefore, sense 1 is correct.

 The answer should be: {"sense_index": 1}

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) for the word "offense" in the given context.

Let me analyze the context:
- The speaker says "No offense intended"
- This is a common phrase used to soften a statement that might be considered rude, insulting, or impolite
- The context suggests the speaker is being careful not to insult or upset the other person while playing on their "soft spot"
- The phrase "No offense intended" is an idiom meaning "I don't mean to be rude/impolite"

Now let's look at the candidate senses:

1. sense_key=offense%1:04:02:: | definition=a lack of politeness; a failure to show regard for others; wounding the feelings of others | synonyms=discourtesy, offence, offensive activity
   - This seems to fit "lack of politeness" or "wounding feelings"
   - "No offense intended" = I don't intend to be impolite or hurt your feelings

2. sense_key=offense%1:12:00:: | definition=a feeling of anger caused by being offended | synonyms=umbrage, offence | examples=he took offence at my question
   - This is about the feeling of being offended, not the act of causing offense
   - "No offense intended" is about the speaker not wanting to cause the feeling, not about the feeling itself
   - The phrase "take offense" would use this sense, but "no offense intended" uses "offense" as something one might cause/create

3. sense_key=offense%1:04:01:: | definition=(criminal law) an act punishable by law | synonyms=crime...
   - This is about legal crimes, doesn't fit the social context

4. sense_key=offense%1:14:00:: | definition=the team that has the ball...
   - Sports context, doesn't fit

5. sense_key=offense%1:04:00:: | definition=the action of attacking an enemy | synonyms=offence, offensive
   - Military/attack context, doesn't fit the social interaction

So it's between sense 1 and sense 2.

Sense 1: "a lack of politeness; a failure to show regard for others; wounding the feelings or others"
Sense 2: "a feeling of anger caused by being offended"

In the phrase "No offense intended":
- "Offense" here refers to the act of causing hurt feelings or being impolite (the cause)
- Not the feeling itself (the effect)

When someone says "No offense intended", they mean "I don't intend to be discourteous" or "I don't intend to wound your feelings". This matches sense 1.

Sense 2 would be used in "He took offense" (he felt anger/umbrage).

Therefore, the best sense is sense 1 (index 1).

Wait, let me double-check the indices:
1. sense_key=offense%1:04:02::
2. sense_key=offense%1:12:00::
3. sense_key=offense%1:04:01::
4. sense_key=offense%1:14:00::
5. sense_key=offense%1:04:00::

Yes, sense 1 is the one about lack of politeness.

Actually, looking at WordNet:
- offense%1:04:02:: is indeed "a lack of politeness; a failure to show regard for others; wounding the feelings or others"
- This corresponds to the usage in "No offense intended"

The phrase "No offense" is short for "No offense intended" or "I mean no offense", where offense means something rude or disrespectful.

So the answer should be {"sense_index": 1}.

The user wants me to perform Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) on the word "intended" in the given context.

 Target lemma: intend
 Target surface form: intended
 Context: "No offense <t>intended</t> ", he said gently.

 Candidate senses:
 1. intend%2:31:00:: - have in mind as a purpose | synonyms=mean, think | examples=I mean no harm; I only meant to help you
 2. intend%2:31:01:: - design or destine | synonyms=destine, designate, specify | examples=She was intended to become the director
 3. intend%2:32:00:: - mean or intend to express or convey | synonyms=mean | examples=You never understand what I mean!; what do his words intend?
 4. intend%2:32:02:: - denote or connote | synonyms=mean, signify, stand for | examples=`maison' means `house' in French; An example sentence would show what this word means

 Let me analyze the context:
 - The phrase is "No offense intended"
 - This is a common idiomatic expression meaning "I didn't mean to offend you" or "It was not my purpose/intention to offend you"
 - The speaker is saying that causing offense was not his purpose or intention

 Now let's look at the senses:

 Sense 1: "have in mind as a purpose" - This fits well. "No offense intended" = "I did not have offense in mind as a purpose" or "I did not purposefully cause offense". The examples include "I mean no harm" which is structurally and semantically very similar to "No offense intended".

 Sense 2: "design or destine" - This doesn't fit. This sense is about destiny or designation for a role, like "She was intended to become the director". The context isn't about destiny or designation.

 Sense 3: "mean or intend to express or convey" - This is close but focuses on expression/conveyance. The example "what do his words intend?" suggests this is about the meaning of words/symbols. While "No offense intended" could relate to expression, it's more about the speaker's purpose/intention rather than what the words convey.

 Sense 4: "denote or connote" - This is about semantic meaning, like "'maison' means 'house'". Not relevant here.

 Between Sense 1 and Sense 3:
 - Sense 1 focuses on purpose/intention as a mental state ("have in mind as a purpose")
 - Sense 3 focuses on meaning/expressing ("mean or intend to express or convey")

 The phrase "No offense intended" is parallel to "I mean no harm" (example from Sense 1). Both indicate that the action was not done with harmful intent/purpose.

 In "No offense intended", the word "intended" is used to indicate that causing offense was not the purpose or aim of the speaker. This aligns with Sense 1: "have in mind as a purpose".

 Sense 3 seems to be more about what words or signs are meant to convey (semantics), whereas Sense 1 is about the agent's purpose or intention (pragmatics/mental state).

 The phrase "No offense intended" is an apology/clarification that the speaker's purpose was not to offend. Therefore, Sense 1 is the best fit.

 Wait, let me double-check the WordNet sense distinctions. In WordNet:
 - intend%2:31:00:: is typically the "plan/intend to do something" sense - having a purpose
 - intend%2:32:00:: is the "mean to say/express" sense

 Actually, looking at the examples:
 Sense 1 examples: "I mean no harm; I only meant to help you"
 Sense 3 examples: "You never understand what I mean!; what do his words intend?"

 "I mean no harm" is very similar to "No offense intended". Both use "mean/intend" to indicate the absence of harmful purpose.

 However, there's a subtle distinction. In "I mean no harm", "mean" is being used in the sense of "intend" (Sense 1). In "what do his words intend?", it's about the meaning of the words themselves.

 But "No offense intended" - is this about the speaker's purpose (Sense 1) or about what the words express (Sense 3)?

 Actually, looking more carefully:
 - "No offense intended" means "I did not intend (plan/purpose) to cause offense"
 - This is clearly about the speaker's mental state/purpose, not about semantic meaning

 Therefore, Sense 1 is correct.

 But wait, I should check if there's any overlap with Sense 3. Sense 3 says "mean or intend to express or convey". If the speaker says "No offense intended", he could be saying "I did not intend to express offense". But the more natural reading is "I did not have the purpose of causing offense".

 The key is that "intended" in this context is passive: "offense [that was] intended". The full meaning is "No offense [was] intended [by me]". This parallels "I mean no harm" where "mean" = "intend".

 Sense 1 is the primary sense of "intend" when talking about human purposes and intentions.

 Let me verify with the synonyms:
 Sense 1: mean, think
 Sense 3: mean

 Both have "mean" as a synonym, but Sense 1 has "think" as well, suggesting mental activity/purpose.

 The example "I mean no harm" in Sense 1 is almost exactly parallel to "No offense intended".

 Therefore, the answer should be Sense 1.

 Wait, I need to be careful about the indexing. The user asks for the sense_index. Looking at the candidate senses:
 1. sense_key=intend%2:31:00::
 2. sense_key=intend%2:31:01::
 3. sense_key=intend%2:32:00::
 4. sense_key=intend%2:32:02::

 So if I choose sense 1, the index is 1.

 But let me reconsider Sense 3 one more time. Could "No offense intended" be interpreted as "No offense meant to be expressed"?

 In the phrase "No offense intended", the word "intended" modifies "offense". It's saying that the offense (if any was taken) was not intended. This means the speaker did not have the intention/purpose of causing offense.

 This is definitely Sense 1.

 However, I want to check if there's any chance this is Sense 3. Sense 3 is "mean or intend to express or convey". The example "what do his words intend?" suggests this sense is used when asking what meaning words carry. "No offense intended" isn't about what the words mean, but about the speaker's intent.

 So Sense 1 is definitely the right choice.

 Final check: The context is someone saying "No offense intended" as a polite way to soften a potentially offensive statement. This is about the speaker's lack of purpose to offend, not about semantic meaning.

 Answer: {"sense_index": 1}
