Shivers are reflexes, which are things your body does automatically to keep you safe and healthy. Reflexes are controlled by your nervous system, which is made up of your brain, your spinal cord, and lots and lots of little nerves that stretch out all over your body. Nerves are like little strings or wires that carry information.

Which reflex action happens when you stand out in the cold?
When you stand out in the cold, your body triggers the reflex action of shivering. This involuntary response generates heat through muscle contractions to maintain your core body temperature.

The reflex arc is the nerve pathway that the signal follows. For example, the knee jerk reflex arc has a stimulus going to an interneuron in the spine and a motor neuron completes the arc by causing the knee to jerk. A reflex is just the action itself.
Explain when it might be adaptive for conscious thought to intervene and modify a reflex action?
Conscious thought might intervene to modify a reflex action when the situation requires a more complex or nuanced response than the reflex can provide.
