Overview

Tools are powerful components that allow agents inside an agent workgroup to interact with external services, process data, and perform specialized tasks. They extend the capabilities of your agents by providing access to various APIs and services.

What is a Tool?

A tool is a specialized component that provides a specific functionality or integration with external services. Tools can be used to search the web, interact with databases, process images, generate text or images, communicate via messaging platforms, and much more.
